Good first ITX from Corsair

Lives up to the Obsidian line. I moved over from a BitFenix Phenom. This 250D is smaller in size and you can use a full 5.25 optical device. Side vents for air intake make a huge difference, particulary on the video card side. Card stays much cooler now at a lower fan RPM. If this unit is up on your desk you will notice a GTX 780 once it reacher 50% rpm on the fan so it's not the most silent. But, it's worth the trade off for better ventilation. I run the GTX 780 fan at 60% when doing intensive tasks and the sound is not too bad, low hum.

Only con after 1 week of use are the magnets that are glued onto the air filter. Video card heat started to seperate the magnets from the air filter mesh. My fault though, I left the GTX 780 fan at only 40% rpm during a game and it got overly hot at 80C. Radeon users beware!

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Works

The case fits my EVGA 780 and standard ATX power supply without any problems. Cable management is surprisingly nice.

I don't know if this happened during shipping or not, but my case is a little warped. A side panel and the top panel do not fit on squarely and it can be a pain to get the thumb screws started on these panels.

I find it amusing that the hard drive cover has 4 thumb screws but the power supply mount only has two, doesn't seem to be a big deal but I would prefer that to be switched.

Once everything is tightened down, you can't tell that the case is tweaked a little.
