It’s always tough to rank products in roundups like these, especially when each one has merit, as is the case with each of the products we reviewed here. Truly, depending on your taste and needs, you could purchase any one of these cases and be satisfi...
Abstract: Corsair's successful entry into the case world has taken quite a few people by surprise including consumers and many competitors in the case market. With the first Corsair Obsidian series, the 800D, Corsair standardized many features that were only ...
This case has great features, great air flow, and only only has one true flaw, and that is that it blocks some SATA ports on EATX boards. Corsair also needs to include more than zero documentation with their cases to help new builders. Otherwise, I thin...

Abstract: Corsair is one of those well organized companies who properly divide their product into the series: Dominator, Vengeance, Hydro… list is pretty extensive. It should be a no-brainer for some who is in regular update with what's happening in today's hardwar...
Abstract: Today we're having a look at another computer case and this time it is the Carbide 500R from Corsair, which feature a beautiful white finish for its mid-tower size.It is based on the Carbide 400R computer case but with even more and better features. ...
Excellent engineering quality, Excellent paint job, Additional 200 mm fan in the side panel (compared to 400R), Great external looks, Very well thought out internals, Parted HDD cages, so that you may remove one for long graphic cards, New and unique lock
A full $40 (40%) more expensive than the 400R, Dust can easily enter the system
Corsair has already managed to impress with the Carbide 400R chassis and the more potent 500R is no exception. It takes the already great 4-series Carbide chassis and improves on its cooling possibilities, adds a fan controller to adjust the rotation s...
Abstract: Today, I unbox and overview for you the Corsair Carbide 500r Case ! While we know Corsair mainly for their Obsidian or Graphite series cases, this case is a part of Corsair's brand new Carbide line, which is their budget line of cases. So what does Corsai...
First things first, when we looked up the price of the 500R we thought there was a mistake as its priced at just £86. All of us here thought it would easily be around the £100 mark, its not very often a Corsair products leaves us thinking "OMG that's chea...
Four stock fans: 2x 120mm front, 1x 120mm rear, 1x 200mm side, Many additional fan mounting options, All toolless installation, Configurable hard drive cages, Multiple, wide, grommeted cabling spaces, Convex side panels for extra space, Excellent construction and style,
Mediocre quality screws and threads, Could be a tad cheaper, PATA drives do not fit
Yes, the Carbide 500R performed exquisitely. With four stock fans it rivals the best in cooling performance. Under extended stress in a cramped environment it kept CPU and GPU temperatures stable in a safe zone below 80 °F using the lowest setting on ...

Corsair does it again with sleek looks, tons of features, and in trendy white to boot. If you are looking for a sub $150.00 mid-tower this is a for sure buy. Just make sure you check the prices on that 600T before you hit the purchase button. ...
