Beautiful case with minors issues.

Corsair 4000D Airflow CC-9011201-WW White Steel / Plastic / Tempered Glass ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Corsair 4000D Airflow CC-9011201-WW White Steel / Plastic / Tempered Glass ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: - Impressive quality for the price - Very spacious - Strong construction - Extremely well ventilated - Very versatile in fans/radiators options - Perforated PS shroud - Vertical video card mount - Reusable and perforated Pci covers - Very clean glass panel mounting

Cons: - The front filter has a tendency to rest on the fans. - Case slightly crooked. - Plastic front grill holders durability - Only 2 SSD frames

Overall Review: It is surely a beautiful case with lovely color matching choices. Very well ventilated. A few minor issues I had. My case does not sit squarely on its legs. No big deal. The front filter mesh sit on the fans. The plastic frame is not strong enough to stretch the grill. It should have cross members to solve that. Corsair was eager to ship me a replacement. I'll see how is goes but I found a simple solution. Just get a cloth hanger (preferably white) and cut a straight length to place in the middle of the frame to strength it. Bingo. I found that there is no HDD activity LED. I had one laying around and made one. I wish the case had metal front grill holders as plastic has a tendency to break over time. I think that Corsair should supply more then two SSD holders but luckily, the two HDD sliding cages also support SSD as well, assuming you have the screws. All in all, it is close to perfection. I don't regret buying it.

Good looking MB but with a flaw

GIGABYTE B550M GAMING X WIFI6 AM4 AMD B550 Micro ATX Motherboard
GIGABYTE B550M GAMING X WIFI6 AM4 AMD B550 Micro ATX Motherboard

Pros: - cheap - great look - USB C mb connector - B550 chipset with Pcie 4.0

Cons: - few USB ports - mediocre memory speed support - over- engineered M2 clamps - no USB C port in the back - only USB 3.2 gen 1 ports - M2 - 2 only X2

Overall Review: The board looks great. The main issue is with the poor memory speed support. I couldn't get the board to boot with my common Corsair 3200 sticks, only at 2400. What's with the ridiculous nvme latches system ? Annoying looping mounts which gets in the way of others components. The M2-2 will not work with a nvme with a cooler if a graphic card is installed. This nvme will suffocate under the graphic card. Only X2 lines for that M2.

Beautiful case with some odd designs

Corsair FRAME 4000D RS White Steel / Tempered Glass ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Corsair FRAME 4000D RS White Steel / Tempered Glass ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: - good price on special - great Corsair quality - some amazing handy designs - comes with three PWM fans in the front - spaces for multiple long water AIOs - huge, if you like that - type C usb 3 ports in the front and rear - built in video card holder - rear IO brackets reversible for front video card positioning - can accommodate reversible motherboards (?)

Cons: - missing instructions - bottom controls - not full size glass panel - no HDD cage - no reset button nor HDD indicator - odd front panel connector - no cover for the front compartment

Overall Review: The case is huge and heavy. It looks empty even with an ATX build. If you don't use the side fans, it is just an mostly empty box with a large cavernous space in the front as the PS box doesn't extend to the front. The case needs instructions badly due to its complexity but none is to be found in the box ! You have to search their website for that. I am not a fan of bottom controls as they are close to the floor. There is a flexible built-in video card holder. The HDD bottom plate looks cheap and doesn't work as it is impossible to connect an HDD due to the squeezed space. I had to drill new holes and raise the plate. The FRONT panel wires are group in a big braised bundle strangely running under the case. The cables are stiff and difficult to route. There is no HDD activity led, nor a reset button. I don't know why manufacturers don't bother with HDD led as it has always been useful. I made one anyway. I have the 3000D case witch I prefer a lot more. There are way better cases out there.

Very capable cpu at a bargain price

AMD Ryzen 5 5500 - Ryzen 5 5000 Series Cezanne (Zen 3) 6-Core 3.6 GHz Socket AM4 65W No Integrated Graphics Desktop CPU Processor - 100-100000457BOX
AMD Ryzen 5 5500 - Ryzen 5 5000 Series Cezanne (Zen 3) 6-Core 3.6 GHz Socket AM4 65W No Integrated Graphics Desktop CPU Processor - 100-100000457BOX

Pros: - modern and cheap. - Zen 3 series - 6 cores - 12 threads. - low power requirement - totally usable for modern gaming

Overall Review: The cpu is dirt cheap but is still very capable for a day to day usage including 1080P gaming. I have a bunch of computers on it and never regret it.

Premier quality motherboard

MSI MPG B550 GAMING PLUS AM4 AMD B550 USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
MSI MPG B550 GAMING PLUS AM4 AMD B550 USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: - great quality that shows - lot of features - nice lighting effect - very sturdy - intelligent layout - built in IO shield

Overall Review: The motherboard feel premium. It is sturdy and relatively "heavy". Lots of shielding. UBS 3 Gen 2 type C header and back plate. Tons of fan headers. Included MB SB rainbow illumination that can be turn off easily. The Bios is well laid out, flexible and pretty standard for AM4. You probably need to update it as it may be "old". Boot right away from the start with no issue. It is a premium product and even better if you can get it on special. The MSI Gaming plus series are legendary for its stability and compatibility. This is an upgrade from my B450 Gaming +. AM4 motherboards are not dead due to the DDR 5 memory un-affordability which is not going away anytime soon.Get them while they are still in production.

The fan include a 20 inches extension. You end up with 5 + 20 inches. More then enough to connect inside a case. "Luxury" packaging. Highly recommended.
