Pros: -LOTS of space for fans, radiators, and water pumps. FIts large GPUs with no problem: increasingly-important especially with the introduction of the 30 Series from NVIDIA -Great airflow: can't get much better unless you opt for an open-air build -Attractive, understated design: not so many curves and corners like my Obsidian 500D RGB case. This makes it look so much better -Easy to clean: front and top dust filters come off very easily, giving you quick access to fans. Also makes for easy fan and rad install -Lots of room for cables: this area is nice and wide unlike many cases I've had -Lots of flexibility. You can mount fans on the front, or the side, or both. HDD cage can be moved forward to accommodate your PSU cables, or it can be taken out entirely. HDD or SSDs can also be mounted to motherboard tray, which can be entirely removed as well. Can remove motherboard cable shroud. Can remove power supply shroud extender to fit larger rads in front. Just so many options with this case to suit all your needs! -Includes lots of Velcro straps to secure cables: very handy -Minor, but it matters: Back fan mount is pushed further back, so that it does not block your motherboard's RGB. Modern problems require modern solutions! -Cute yellow accents throughout the case. My favorite spot: the USB-A ports -Includes 2 USB-A and 1 USB-C port -Side panels easily come off and out of the way, without feeling like you're going to drop the panels mid-removal
Cons: -Not needed for my build, but I wish the HDD cage slid a couple inches further to help accommodate larger power supplies -Motherboard cable shroud is a bit of a pain to work with, as you have to bend the cables. But it is doable. Can be removed entirely as well -Not applicable for me, but some may prefer the front I/O to have separate microphone and headphone jacks, rather than the combo this has. I personally don't use a mic anyway, and you could just plug it into back I/O anyway
Overall Review: This is a fantastic case. Corsair is really getting their act together and getting serious about good cases. It was a joy to build in, and I'm kind of sad my build was done - it was just so fun! I love the simple look of this case. It looks great. It's also comforting having so much space, so I shouldn't need to change cases for quite some time! Switching to this case also brought my GPU temps down a few degrees, and I'm noticing that it takes longer to heat up, and cools down quickly. Genuinely impressed!
Pros: Cable management was easy, lots of space.
Cons: With the mounting spot for a vertical gpu not much airflow gets there causing higher temperatures. Hdd cage can not be in with the scoop bottom panel.
Overall Review: Would use to build another computer, probably wouldn't go with vertical mount next time unless gpu is water cooled.
Pros: Its got great airflow Its looks great Its built with quality in mind I just love it!!!!!!!!!!!
Cons: Only real con is you only get 2 fans so be prepared to buy more.
Overall Review: I love the case looks great and I would buy a doze if I needed them.
Pros: - They aren't joking about the airflow. It has lots. - Plenty of space. - Easy cable management. - Clean aesthetic. - Good front I/O (2 USB 3 type A, 1 USB 3 type C) - Captive thumbscrews for side panels--no screwdriver required. - Front fan mounting bracket detaches for easy installation. I think the side one does too but I wasn't using it and couldn't figure out how to get it out.
Cons: - Has spots for ten 120mm fans and ships with a grand total of two black non-RGB fans. I get that Corsair want to make their money selling you three three-packs of fans for $60 each and one solo fan for $30 (seriously?) to make your case look like their marketing materials, but as far as I can tell, most of the competition is shipping with at least three fans, likely RGB as well. - Couldn't figure out how to get the side fan bracket out (eventually stopped since I didn't need to anyway and was just trying to route cables more easily)--this is definitely a combination of my own stupidity along with Corsair's lack of clear documentation, but I've seen at least a couple of reviewers online having the same issue when they review it so it's not just me.
Overall Review: My wife said it was bigger than she expected, which is the first time I've heard that from her. She's right--this is definitely the biggest PC I've ever owned by a long shot. I don't necessarily think it's abnormal for a DIY desktop PC build in 2022, though, and the size is great for cooling. It also made my first PC build really easy, as I didn't have to fit my definitely very large hands into too many tight spaces. I have the black model, and it looks a lot different than the white version all of the internet reviewers have. That's not necessarily a bad thing; it's just quite dark on the inside when the panel is on and you can really only see your RGB on the inside even if you have it facing a light. Basically, ASRock wasted their time putting a logo on my graphics card. Or I need to just get RGB light strips if I want to be like the cool kids and display LEGO minifigures in my case. Overall the case is very aesthetically pleasing, though--it looks clean and can be customized in all sorts of ways if that's something you're into. There's a ton of room in the case for accessories and bling of all sorts, while the outside is big, black, and ready for business. Temperatures in this case are crazy low with my current hardware (5900x, 6600-XT); I plan to replace my graphics card with something hotter and faster when prices start dropping, so we'll see if anything goes above 70 degrees then. Nothing is now. I also only put fans on the front and top, leaving the exhaust fan on the back. I contemplated putting some on the side panel next to the motherboard just to fill all of the holes, but I'm glad I didn't because that would have basically been a wasted $60 as far as I'm concerned. The 7 fans I have keep things very cool and are probably already overkill.
Pros: The tower itself is very nice. -Great panels of solid tempered glass with good gaps to encourage airflow through in the right directions. -Modular cable management with supplied straps and posts to run cables behind and away from visible areas. -I like that the intake on the side has its own shielded duct to direct the air that comes in from that side over the motherboard and GPU. -Easy to set up holding locations for SSDs and traditional plate drives. -Comes stock with your three fans placed in the front and already attached to the iCUE distributor for RGB. -All the dust collectors are magnetic and super easy to use. This was the first complete build I have made in a long time. I bought 3 additional RGB fans and a 360mm radiator AIO for my CPU and though it was a bit tight I was able to manage all the cables very well. Definitely took some time to plan out and actually run the wires through though, this wont be something you'll finish building with in an afternoon I don't think unless you're just that experienced. I need to buy one more 120mm fan for the back of the case though to push air out that way and get my proper airflow. If you're buying corsair fans to go with this they give you all kinds of options for consolidating your RGB settings together and linked up with the system. Keep in mind the case itself only supports 6 though so if you're planning on more you'll need to get an iCUE commander plate from whatever box set you purchase as well to supplement the case system.
Cons: It came pre assembled with a lot of wires already ran in a particular way through the backside of the case and all the ducts and drive brackets set in place where they thought they should go. I had to be very careful and look for how to remove what I needed to in order to run wires my way. The HDD bracket especially wasn't in the best of positions to not interfere with my giant power supply unit I purchased for my build but in the grand scheme. It was also somewhat difficult to mount fans in the side panel due to the duct plate being in the way. I had to use my 3 120mm fans one at a time and mount them in place there instead of my big radiator like I originally planned
Overall Review: Overall I think this was a great purchase. Super stylish looking when fully assembled with a lot of good customization
Pros: Included 3 SP 120 fans for optimal static pressure cooling. Included rgb hub and fan for additional 3 corsair fans (added sp 120mm). Plenty of cable management ties and chanels as well as tie down spots.
Cons: Even though the case is large, 360 rad compatibility is reduced if youre planning on using the front included fans for intake. The back glass door can be a ln issue if youre planning on populating all 10 fans and hubs. Side panels can be hard to pop out sometimes.
Overall Review: Great sturdy build and quality product from corsair, wouldve love to see it at $160 price point even with the included fans and hub. The case is well thought through and through bu t still has some Weird Quirks that will have you re-planning your whole build. I wouldve also love to see a complete white theme instead of the white-gray combo that corsair finally did but at greater cost. The case is light in comparison with its main competitor (lian li o11 dunamic) and its actually easier to build in it plus no added funds necessary as it comes with an excellent choice of fans for cooling. 100% satisfaction guaranteed.
Pros: So much space to work with and multiple configurations available.
Cons: Taking off the backplate for extra fans or placing an aio there was a little annoying having to remove the cable guide bar to access the screws.
Overall Review: I would definitely recommend this case. High air flow, beautiful design, lots of space to work with. Cable management was a breeze.
Pros: - The build quality is second to none. Everything has been through of and the quality of the components and constructions are fantastic. I have been using NZXT and I was happy for the most part. But this case gave me much more room to work in and much better features.
Cons: - None that I can tell.
Overall Review: I would recommend this for those who want room to build, tons of options for interior builds, and those who want a polish and finished look. This case is not gigantic but it is wide so be sure it will fir your needs.
