Corsair Carbide Series CC-9011050-WW SPEC-01 Black ATX Mid Tower Gaming Computer Case

Pros: - looks really good with the red LEDs and the two other red fans I bought.
- The LED in the stock fan matched my RAM, AMD Wraith cooler, and the two other red corsair fans that I purchased for this build really well
- Plenty of spaces to put fans if you can fit fans in those spaces
- plenty of airflow with my two fans in the front, the stock fan in the rear exhaust space, and another exhaust fan above the CPU

Cons: - Barely any room to neatly route cables with a standard ATX board. I had less than a centimeter of space between the bottom of my board and the top of the PSU
- not enough space to install fans in the top spaces. I could only just barely fit one fan in the top spot above the CPU, but I had to install the fan after everything else and I needed long tweezers to plug that fan into the water pump connection at the top of my board because there's barely any space in this case for everything
- when I installed a CD drive, the clips that hold the drive in place push outward. Those clips get in the way of putting the side panels back on.

Overall Review: I would not buy this case a second time. If you use a smaller board and a modular PSU, you might have better luck routing cables, but it was just too tight in there for me to recommend this case.

Pros: -Breathes very well
-Plenty of drive bays
-Tinted side panel to see off of your goods
- Price range is great for first time builds

Cons: - Acrylic side panel scratches VERY easy thus making it aesthetically unpleasant to the eye
- Rear cable panel is pretty tight for routing cables
- Front filter is build into the panel, so to clean the entire front panel must be removed
- Front panel filter is hard to clean

Overall Review: This is a great MID tower for a first time builder which is what I purchased it for. The RED LED strip on the front is pretty cool. Though the side panel is clear/tinted so you can show off any RGB gear you have, it scratches SO easy. I have scratches all over mine, and not once remember hitting it with anything, as I am very careful with it. The front panel has a filter built into the panel, so it cannot be removed on its own to be cleaned. This makes it difficult to clean it really well. That said, I don't believe it impeded air flow in any way. The tower breathes extremely well. I have never had an overheat at any time using the built in front fan, and an additional one I added. There is plenty of room for even the biggest of GPU's. I have a GTX 1070 in mine that has 3 fans, and it fits great. There are tons of drive bays as well. Overall, If there was a similar tower out there that didn't have the acrylic side panel, and built in filter I would buy it again for a starter build no doubt.

Pros: Lots of room for additional hard drives.
Great, sleek look.Love the front LED, red light strip. Also the front fan intake prevents fan LED light from being too obnoxious.
Mesh dust filters.

Cons: Not much room on the back side panel for routing cables.
Side panel is very prone to scratch damage. (although it's acrylic so you should know this going in)

Overall Review: Great looking case but not made with the best materials. Unfortunately the dust filter is built into the front bezel , meaning you have to remove the front panel every time you wish to clean the mesh. Unfortunately today was the day that one of the plastic pins snapped, despite my best efforts to be careful. The filter should really be separate and slide out from the top or bottom, like on the PSU.

Pros: + Easy to build
+ Has dust filter for the psu
+ Good air flow
+ Easy cable management

Cons: + A little bit heavy.

Pros: This case BREATHES really well, plenty of ventilation, top and rear sides. The case is very lightweight has a cheap feel. Most of the standoffs are already in place.

Cons: One of the standoffs was grossly defective, and would not hold a screw. There was no mention of a stuck standoff that would require replacement. The other disappointing issue was they only include ONE standoff in the accessory kit. The last disappointing issue was they show an exploded diagram of the case and parts, they show 2- case fans in the diagram, but only include one in the kit. Again, the sign of a cheap product.

Overall Review: Believing that the Corsair would actually be a better case than others I've purchased for similar builds was a misnomer for me. Other makers give you extra fans and accessories "just in case", sadly no so with this Corsair.

Pros: Everything I needed came with, so I was happy with that, This is the Spec 01 Mid Tower ATX case if you need the extra room, not the Mini ATX but a Mini ATX board will probably fit.
Very nice metal work on the case, no bare metal sharp edges to get cut on, good layout inside for Drive Bays etc. Comes with 1 120mm. Corsair Fan with a 3 pinout connector. Very Nice side panel clear panel cutout to see your Flux Capacitor working inside the case.
Room for another 120mm. fan in front and one in back will be needing a 120 or 140. The Top as well will hold 2 120mm. or 140 mm. Fans. The top of the case isn't like the one pictured that has holes from front to back, it's only got holes 1/2 way from the back, looks better than what was shown. There is also screens on the bottom to catch power supply dust and good screening at the front to catch intake fans dust. The front panel is plastic and pulls off so you can clean the front screen and the plastic cover, nice touch. A lot of thought went into the construction of this case.
Very happy with this case.

Cons: The metal is not as thick as my old PC's which I guess is a good thing. Once built set it somewhere safe and it will be just fine, not on the floor of your kids room.

Pros: The bottom mounted PSU keeps it thermally stable, I installed a Corsair AX860i which makes this machine look good
The red LED fan and accent make the box look fairly good, red LED are the cheapest but they are bright and easy to see
The large side panel makes it easy to see the hardware

Cons: with usb 3.1 why does a front panel usb 2.0 A needed for when usb 3.0 type A is backwards compatible

Overall Review: Corsair Carbide series are good basic chassis for µATX and ATX boards

I use MSI motherboards and I had no issue with this chassis at all

Pros: NONE

Cons: THE METAL IS WAY TOO THIN. THE CASE IS FLIMSY . JUNK! JUNK! JUNK!
