Pros: There is nothing new I can add to the list of pros to this case that haven’t already been said. From the time I saw this case on Corsair’s website, I knew I wanted it. The 600T is an excellent case that offers the builder a variety of set up choices. It’s roomy and cable management is a breeze. The case is beautiful!! I’m not really into the wild looking gaming cases that are on the market, so this case was perfect for me. From the white LEDs to the graphite and black, the case looks professional. I guess that’s what happens when you’re in the 21 and over category – lol. The case is HUGE, but not too big to where it’s a problem. For the price, it really is a top-notch product that will allow me to upgrade my parts for a while. IMO, this is the best case in the sub-$200 category. It came down to this case and the HAF 932. The HAF didn’t have the quality of this case, but it does come with better fans (see cons below).
Cons: Airlfow with the stock fans is decent at best. I did a ton of research on cases before I settled on this one. I had pretty much resided on the fact I was going to have to swap out the 200mm fans that came with the case. What I didn’t plan on was the difficulty I was going to have in finding 200mm fans to fit it. I do like that I can add two 120mm fans to the top exhaust to improve exhaust flow. I’m a bit disappointed that Corsair didn’t release better 200mm fans to coincide with the release date of the 600t. I’m not going to fault Corsair too much for providing weak fans with the case as I’m sure they guessed most people would change out the fans for something they wanted. It’s not worth knocking off an egg for the weak fans, but it is something to be aware of if you’re doing any type of comparisons to other cases on the market.
Overall Review: I emailed Corsair tech support and got the skinny on the fans. For anyone interested, here it is: 200mm fan specs are 76 CFM @ 24.2 dB-A and the 120mm fan specs are around 50 CFM @ 23 dB-A. Tech support got back to me in less than 6 hours – score another point for Corsair’s good customer service. Incidentally, Xigmatek makes a fan that looks “amazingly” like the 200mm fans that comes with the 600T….hmmm. My guess is Corsair had Xigmatek make the fans for the case and just slapped the Corsair logo on them. Here is the link for anyone that’s curious, or would like to change the color of their fans - http://www.xigmatek.com/product.php?productid=71&type=specification. So, if you can live with the low power of the 200mm intake fan until Corsair/Xigmatek makes a more powerful one, I highly recommend this case. It really does live up to the hype. If you’re like me and want a nice and tidy computer with room for expansion, then you’ll be more than happy spending your money.
