Many reviewers have criticized this for having poor air flow, but in my time with it I have not found that to be the case (ha!), though I must admit I am using two Arctic fans. If the unique design and the low price appeal to you, then I'd say to pull the trigger.Pros-Good price-Interesting appearance-Dust filters-Three colours-Reasonably large size-One included fan (note: 3 pin)Cons-Poor and undescriptive manual that relies entirely on images and is only 5 pages long in each language.-There is an unmentioned mount for a fan at the bottom front of the case. However, to use it you must remove all the hard drive bays. This is confusing and also problematic as the top back and bottom front is the go-to location for fans,

Pro`s.Nice RGB. Fitted a large cooler ( Dark Rock 4 ) and a vertical mounted GPU ( Xfx Thicc 3 Ultra ) Which is a large GPU, it was a bit of a tight fit but it`s in ! My system runs cool and quiet.Slight negatives.Cable management at the rear of the case is tight as space is somewhat limited.Supposedly designed to house an AIO either above or to the right of the CPU. Fitting a large AIO above the CPU will be difficult as there is limited room between the top of the case and the ram slots so measure before ordering your AIO if planning to mount it at the top.The case will easily house a 240+ AIO at the front of the case.Very happy with my purchase,

I got this case quite cheap at the time and boy its nice. Great install took about 2 hours max fitted all new RGB fans all works perfectly BUT...... Be warned you do need extra sata power connectors to actually get the RGB sync to work correctly tho i knew this from a previous build the cabling at the back of the pc can be quite tight if you are adding more fans so try and stick to no more then 3 120mm fans. Previously i used a MSI case with corsair parts i had and couldn't get them to work correctly so swapped out to all corsair and now its built brilliant wouldn't change a bit so if you do buy this case make sure you stick with all corsair parts to ensure it all works with their software.

Bought the Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-05 and its an impressive upgrade over my existing case. the cable management which is never my strong point is very good, there is room for plenty of fans - I have fitted another 2 on top of the pre-installed 1 fan.Also a lot of room for storage - I have fitted two SSD's, 1 HDD with space for another 2. On top of this my X570 mobo supports M.2 - so another 2. A total of 7 potential drives in a build like this.Its a well built case which was easy to fit an ATX mobo to

The RGB is easy to use and looks great. The glass panel is flush with the case which I really appreciate since many cases have them sticking out. Another feature of this case I really like is all the options for cable management, absolutely worth the price. I only had one issue, as the manual doesn't make it very clear which screws are required for each part, so I had to take my PC apart a few times to get everything right. However, it does provide plenty of spare screws which makes up for this.

A super sleek and stylish case with a clean internal layout. The accessories box includes plenty of screws for expansion. The included rgb strip on the front bezel is nice, and has a number of modes and colours on the included controller. The only issue I have is that using my longer than normal EVGA 650 GQ power supply there was not much room for cables between it and the hard drive enclosure, though a standard form factor psu would probably be fine. overall a very solid case.

I initially had huge cooling issues with this case but I loved the look of it so I persevered with friends and we've now got my GTX 2080 and i9 9900k running smoothly inside of here. With a liquid cooling system and some bios trickery it's a very efficient machine inside of a beautifful case. JUST BEWARE if you want to build a gaming pc in this case, the airflow is not great and you'll have to factor that into your build

Just built a brand new PC using this case. It was easy to work with, comes with included fans and the RGB looks great. Due to the size of the case, it is a bit tricky to cable manage at the rear and a bulge on the side panel would help with bigger cable, but nevertheless I was able to fit two SSDs at the back. I have fitted a Standard ATX Motherboard with no issues. It looks great, simple and compact.

needed a case that said "gamer" and so this offering from corsair came into view. well built and with nice red highlighting to the front of the case it has the obligatory windowed side to show off the internals. easy to work on and with loads of expansion bays for hdds and ssds the case will work for a multitude of builds. oh and excellent cable management options as well. highly recommended.

Great value for money definitely, for my first pc build this case made it super easy and simple with the slots to hide cables, I haven't been able to get the front panel off, the red fan is ideal for a casual person but in a quiet room os audible even not under load. I'd recommend buying x3 120mm fans as front panel does restrict airflow and unsure yet if the stock fan can be moved

super great case, comes with a fan pre-installed and the cables inside are all already managed with zip ties. The fan does have red led lights so might not fit with some colour schemes however for airflow, the red colour can be ignored. Plenty of space of SSD's and Hard drives to be stored as well as loads of space for cable management even without a modular power supply.

Great value case , put 3 ezdiy fans in , full atx board front mounted 240mm ran , have to remove the hard drive cage to install rad which is no problem the rad had to be mounted on the bottom of the front still gives you the option to have an SSD above it on display, cable management obviously quite difficult as it's a small case but it's a perfect little case

Very happy. Vega 64lc required customising to fit in but managed a push/pull fan config on radiator. I managed 7 fans in total (Inc gcard rad fans) 4in 3out. Gcard never goes above 60c even in 4k max settings. Cpu is ryzen 7 and never goes above 65c even in cinebench. Lots of airflow and cable management available. For the the money its the best case iv used.

There was plenty of room to put all components inside. Also there were plenty of cable tie holders and included cable ties which helps cable management massively. Only complaints was the fact that the back board is quite difficult to put back on and off as well as the front panel. Other than that i recommend massively, look great with the glass panel.

This is a great case and has everything I need. The only issue I ran into was when I went mount the back plate for the cpu cooler, I had to remove the motherboard after installing everything else as the case design doesn’t allow for the fitting unless it’s removed. The cooler I used was a Corsair h70 on an 1151 motherboard.
