CORSAIR CARBIDE 275R Mid-Tower Gaming Case, Window Side Panel

This case is a great budget case. There are several minor setbacks but no major deal breakers. For the price, this is one of the best cases in the market.Positives: Great material, minimalist design, plenty of space for cable routing, cable routing holes are placed appropriately and thoughtfully, thermals are amazing, filters on the front AND bottom, included lots of extra screws and cable ties, crystal clear glass panel, and the stock fans are above par.Negatives: You cannot have a 360mm radiator with push pull fan configuration (you have to choose between push or pull when using a 360mm radiator), no top dust filter (doesn’t really matter though), there are no rubber grommets, just holes for routing the 24 pin and sata connections.Great case overall!

Actually bought the case somewhere else because I thought shipping was faster. Turns out they both arrived at the same time. Return process was easy and the customer service was helpful. Didn't have to pay for shipping return.Now, as for the case, it's beautiful. Had a little trouble putting the PSU in, but it's alright. Biggest problem people will have with this is the lack of a dust filter on top. Why this oversight exists is beyond me. I have 3 fans and a CPU cooler, so I don't have to worry about heat. I put paper on top and put some stuff on there, like a little shelf. For me, it's fine, not a big issue. But this might turn other people off. The acrylic glass is clear and easy to see the interior. Another problem here is that instead of using hinges, someone decided it was a good idea to use screws on the four corners instead. Not a bad thing, but certainly an extra hassle when you want to open the case to check the inside.Overall, good case, but could have been cheaper and/or better designed.

The cable management was great in this, it looks nice and tiny inside. I was able to barely fit my i150 Capellix water cooler in the front, but was so glad, because my ran was too high profile to fit it on top. The materials are top quality and the design is well planned. I am going to buy another and build another using my older parts since this case is an excellent value.

I have had two different cases made by Corsair for their budget case options. This Carbide 275R case is one of the best cases I've ever had, especially for the money.- It is fairly easy to build in- Has decent cable management accessories- The side panel window really shows off my buildThe one issue I had was the little rubber grommets/spacers that are used along with a screw to hold the side panel in place. These grommets aren't held in place at all, and often just go flying off across the floor if you remove the side panel. Just be careful - I lost one of those grommets because it rolled somewhere in the room and I can't find it.
