Amirichi almost a year already since you boughtt this case. so may i know if your case looks good till now? because i want to buy this case this week. sorry for bad english.
@@7moody771 may i just ask about the ram in terms of fitting with a 240mm cpu water cooler cuz ive seen ppl ask about it that the ram may block the cpu cooler
Corsair really is an amazing company. They fixed nearly all of the problems that he had with this case. The PSU shroud is now covered, they also added a whole in it for the case connectors to pass through. There is also the cable cover in the rear that wasn't included before.
the glass is whatever. clean it when you want it to look nice. the main thing about this case, and I'm sure others have the feature, is the fan filter screen. that is so awesome. I built my rig about 6 months ago and I've cleaned the screen twice, my heatsink is still shiny no dust
You should do and updated version of this. I just bought this one and they have changed the psu cage so it is closed at the end now and a pass thru on the top of the cage for cables instead. The button layout is also slightly changed with one usb C instead. The logos are rgb aswell.
indeed I bought it with the cut-out on the PSU shroud. had to buy the plate that closes the front of the PSU shroud seperatly though. and the logos are white but I really don't mind that.
yep its the updated version now everything he said in this video that he didn't like its mostly been fixed the psu shroud is now fully enclosed and the rubber gromit on the shroud for all the front pannel connectors and it seems like they extended up the mounting points for the front radiator cause i fit my h110i in the top with my gskill tridentz just fine
HWC has been posting more and more lately double dose of the gorgeous b-roll and ad spot weekly xD (seriously, your ad integration are one of the most creative)
If actually 2x (!) 20cm fans fit perfectly in the front panel (480x234mm), it's so stupid to design the front panel with 3x 12cm fans instead. Bigger fan - more air flow and less noise. I would only buy this pc case for modding it, making some changes to install 2x 20cm fans in front.
A solution for the bottom is to mount the m.2 bracket EVEN if you don't have an m.2 to put in it. The reason is you can run the cables taut underneath it. It keeps them flat. I also found if you run the cables that need to go there up from the psu basement instead of through the rubber grommet it helps to keep them taut and out of sight. I wish I could post a pic of it to show you.
I just got the 570x mirror black edition, I love it, when it's day it appears to be mirror and looks sharp, but at night it becomes see through like a dark tempered glass. It fixes almost all of the flaws of the 570x the only one I found to care about was fitting my hands inside the psu shroud to be very difficult, just make sure to plug in your stuff before hand. All that being said it's an amazing case and I'd suggest it to anyone
Dimitry I have to say that you make the best adds out of all the main tech youtubers that I watch (LTT, Bitwit, Paul's Hardware, JayzTwoCents, Austin, etc...)!!! The adds actually have quality of an almost cinematic sense and I love the whole "terminator" vibe that you got going with the NZXT cooler. I watched your review of that cooler and am seriously thinking of getting it to upgrade my Cooler Master 212 Hyper EVO so I can finally do some overclocking on my 2 year old CPU. As for the case in this video tempered glass would be nice but I would be freaked out about damaging it cause I like to move my PC around a lot for LAN parties or gaming in the living room when family come over, anti-social I know but they don't mind occasionally! :) However I have to say that the Corsair 570X would look nice with some LEDS and a full custom water loop. Thanks for the review, Dimitry - Keep up the good work!! :)
Thanks for a great, thorough review. I was hoping for this in a full tower size, and I almost purchased this one. I pulled back because of the limited space at the top for radiator fans, such limited wiring options and exposed wiring at the power supply. Thanks for exposing the flaws in this beautiful 'glass house.'
Corsair released an update to this case since this video fixing a few issues. PSU is not fully shrouded and has a grommet. Wiring management could still be improved slightly but overall I managed to tuck everything in really nicely. The top has a Corsair H100i Pro with ample clearance for ram. The radiator does cover the kobo a bit bit its not a big deal. I would say my only real issue with this case is the inability to turn the lights off completely. I feel like the RGB would have been a lot better if it was part of the Link system and could sync up with my AIO cooler. And even better than that if both worked in mystic light. Overall I really like this case and I would totally recommend it now.
I know this is an old review. To those who are watching in 2020/2021. A lot of complaints he had are fix in current versions of 570x. The power supply is covered and they added a grommet for the bottom of the motherboard cables, it helps a lot with cable management. I got mine at the microcenter.
As an update the PSU shroud DOES have a panel to hide the cables now. Guess they heard some of the complaints. So far am loving this case. Good balance between thermals and aesthetics.
very very VERY Honest review! hats off Dimitri.... love this video. :) though i dont understand why no reviewer is mentioning the weird multicolor Front panel cables?!
I bought one of these a few weeks ago (from amazon) and it does indeed have a full sheet metal cover for the PSU shroud now. I wonder if they added it after release. Anyway I bought the white version so I ended up making a new cover to hide the black power supply on the exposed side, and I 3d printed some white cable covers to hide wires around the drive bays and bottom of the mobo.
What's the song at the very start of the video? It doesn't seem to be any of the 3 songs listed in the video description. I'm assuming it's something by Nigel Good since the description links to his SoundCloud page, but I can't find it in any of his songs.
Corsair if you ever read this... Please, please, please extend the power supply shroud all the way and place a removable plate at the front for radiators or the third fan. Also place a cable cutout on the shroud for the video card power cable. This case would be absolutely perfect with these fixes.
what would make this case perfect: -3x140mm fans in front and top, --support for thick radiators in top by making case taller -full length, sliding psu shroud -rgb logos
This video was certainly helpful! I just bought this case yesterday. I think it was the glass which attracted me to it and it's uniqueness. I feel like it will be fine for me. I do however, worry about the dust build up on the inside, but I may just have to blow it out much often and clean the glass on both sides.
It's like a bit better version of 460X, but with much higher prices. Come on Corsair, we're not gonna pay $180 only for aesthetics. Great video as always :D
Recently got this case, it looks stunning. There have been changes to the case since this review, the important one I've noticed is that Corsair added a rubber grommet down in the PSU shroud by the side where the front panel connectors are on the motherboard. This helps clean up the wiring but is still not as necessary a change as closing the PSU shroud.
Thank you very much for this review. ^^ I've been eyeballing this case on the Corsair site for a bit of time and was wanting some more information on it, and now I know very clearly that it won't meet my needs. Definitely a big time saver, thanks again~
I know it was a review of the form and appearance, but did you have a chance to measure the performance of the fans? At the front, they have 3 fans with a pieces of glass in front of them and maybe 1" of gap around the edges to allow for air flow and to me this creates a giant restriction to air flow as, unless the fans included are high static pressure fans capable of probably at least .5" WG SP, all fans are their most efficient when capturing air directly in front of the fan face, and the more you move to the side the less efficient they become eventually only capturing a fraction of the air that they can compared to directly in front. Forcing the fans to capture air from the sides where they are the least efficient seems like a giant oversight just for a bit of visual appeal, whether intentional or not.
Just a little update since i just built in this case yesterday. They added a rubber grommet to the power supply shroud. If u still use a hard drive (I do) u need a sata cable with 2 flat sides! If u have one with a 90 degree angle u won't be able to put ur glass back on the cable side. ALSO I highly recommend sleeved cables. I used EVGA's cables from their G3 850 and all of their cables are fat so i wasn't able to put the cover back on. Also my last issue with the case (well more corsair) is that u cannot mix and match fans on their lighting node. I had some ML120s that i was bringing from my old case and the case comes with SP120s. If u mix and match only one set of RGB will work. Overall this case is not build friendly. Once u start mixing all of ur RGB controllers it becomes a tangled mess so quick I just stared at the back to figure out how the hell i was going to make it somewhat neat. It's a beautiful case but it's definitely not for me.
HardwareCanucks haha thanks :) and keep it up, you guys are doing well. Also I want to include that I brought CM Devastator 2 by watching your review. So I feel great to know :)
Hi Dimitri, if you put another exhaust fan at the end. Doesn't that make this case very negative pressured? I notice that there is a gap between the case itself and the tempered glass on both side which is absolutely not good under negative pressure circumstance. But, if you don't put the exhaust fan, does this case have enough air flow to cool all the components down? Thanks!
I don't know why are visible cables such a "problem" to many pc enthusiasts. I do not think the cables should all be hidden. They are a part of the system guts, and some of them should be visible, especially if they are custom color braided, and well routed. I think they give that cyborg look to a pc, it looks more alive. I like that.
Mounting the rad in front would solve the space problem, and may actually improve thermals. With all that extra space in front it seems like an ideal place.
I bought one of these cases. Although I am basically happy with this, there is one thing that bugs me: as far as I can tell I cannot turn of the LEDs on the fans at the front of the box. Although I think the lighting is generally attractive, I'm a video editor not a gamer. Lots of times I am working late at night in a dark studio, the lights can be distracting. I understand that I can go into the case and install a switch to disable the LEDs. This is a bit of a hassle and most of the time, I like the LEDs.
Honestly i would chose the be quiet Darkbase Pro 900 in all black and see if i could order a second tempered glass side panel because i just want the sides to be tempered glass. The worst part of this corsair case is the top and i feel the front and top don't need to have tempered glass but hey i guess having options is okay for those that want more glass
Dimitri, could you do me a big favor and measure how long the top opening of the case is without the fan bracket? I would like to know if you could fit two 360 rads inside this case with a custom radiator bracket for the top!
I would've hands down bought this case right after I finished the video if it wasn't for the cable rubber grommet issues and radiator fan clearance. I really hope they are going to release a better version soon!
You say "460x better than 570x" and it sounds like prius 2016 better than land cruiser 2018... This "Crystal" series main theme is STYLE,and 570x has better style.
Great review, Dimitri! I am sad to see the compromises in this otherwise perfect case. Can you fit a 360 rad in push-pull at the front? And could that be done on the 460x as well?
I would go with a Thermaltake Suppressor F31. Because it's a mid tower that can accommodate everything I need, and it has acoustic panels to further silence the Noctua fans inside. Did I mention I like silence?
Love the look of this case and its tempered glass with RGB fans included. But the deal breaker is probably the lack of cable management holes above the PSU shroud just doesnt make sense for how clean the rest of the case is.
I just bought the new kraken x52 and the Phanteks Enthoo Evolx Atx Glass Case. Your DAT GLASS scene on the review sold me!!!!Now should i sold the case and buy the 570 in christmas? Is it better in term of spaces inside?
Hey there. Could I know what kind of motherboard is in that case? I'm concerned with putting a corsair h100i v2 liquid cooler on the top of the case and not having enough clearance for the RAM and CPU socket.
I love the exterior, but I would love to see more radiator space. And considering the space at the top, why don't they made it possible to mount 360rad too? Just add in a lil' bit more length and height and I think it will be perfect.
I have the same case but the white version. Mine has the power supply totally enclosed from the inside. And there’s a rubber grommet opening on the far end of the power supply housing for wires to pass thru. My only issue is the RGB lighting controller. It’s not or mine isn’t seen in iCue to be controlled.
I realize there's compromises VS the 470X, but I LOVE the way the 570X looks. Its absolutely gorgeous and I would be willing to deal with some curious oversights. If my house wasn't such a dust bin I'd be all over this.
Hi Dmitry, I wanted to know if it was possible to fit the Kraken X52 on the top of the case? How wide is the radiator + fans on the X62? I'm only getting the X52 and need to know if this will have enough clearance in the case. Thanks!
Just wanted to add that for some reason that PSU shroud just doesn't look right out of the box and that Corsair actually has acknowledged that people don't like how open it is and they do sell an end cover for the 570x on the Corsair website for around $5. It's not a great solution, I would much rather prefer an extension piece like the one present in the 460x but I suppose this was all that Corsair could do so late on into production. It's not great but its a hell of a lot better
I really like the overall architecture of this case, but I think they could've gotten the same look with an aluminum or steel side panel on the cable side, and a psu shroud that actually covers the cables.
What length extentions would you advise for this case to allow for nice right angled cable management? I've seen other people on youtube do builds in this case with diagonal cables sprawling across the mobo cutout at the back, which looks pretty nasty (given you can see through the backside of the case). Want to make sure my sleeved extensions look badass :D
If anyone gets the reference on the NZXT ad-spot I won't open the pod-bay doors.
what
Bravo.
hello dmitry :D
Could it be? Could it be a reference to ME 3?
Dont do it HAL!
what's up with corsair and their AMD GPU sounding case names
t3mb3 Maybe they're plotting together to take over the world? :O

Easton Williams I like it too, heh. That was one of the first things that came to my mind - "almost sounds like an AMD card naming scheme"
slipknotboy555 When the 570 comes out buy the case too
slipknotboy555 "Yeah, uh, I got a dual 570"
I bought this case and built with it, it's friggin awesome. Yes cable management is a welcome challenge, but once done right, it looks perfect.
bought it today... its nice

Barney Patrick if you don’t have an issue with the size the 460x fixes a lot of this problems.

At the front, they have 3 fans with a pieces of glass in front of them and maybe 1" of gap around the edges to allow for air flow and to me this creates a giant restriction to air flow as, unless the fans included are high static pressure fans capable of probably at least .5" WG SP, all fans are their most efficient when capturing air directly in front of the fan face, and the more you move to the side the less efficient they become eventually only capturing a fraction of the air that they can compared to directly in front.
Forcing the fans to capture air from the sides where they are the least efficient seems like a giant oversight just for a bit of visual appeal, whether intentional or not.

I just couldn't see buying a case with a glass backpanel
I would've hands down bought this case right after I finished the video if it wasn't for the cable rubber grommet issues and radiator fan clearance. I really hope they are going to release a better version soon!
You say "460x better than 570x" and it sounds like prius 2016 better than land cruiser 2018... This "Crystal" series main theme is STYLE,and 570x has better style.
Just because a new model is released in the latest year, doesnt mean they're better than their predecessor. Corsair rushed the 570X
This is such a biased review. For example you obviously made the cables look extra messy on purpose at 7:28
Cheeky shot of the HD800s in the reflection of the 570X's tempered glass.... you really love your great pair of cans... huh Dimitri
Great review, Dimitri! I am sad to see the compromises in this otherwise perfect case.
Can you fit a 360 rad in push-pull at the front? And could that be done on the 460x as well?
Would a radiator fit if I were to use slim (15mm) fans?
It's been awhile since I was impressed with a Corsair case. And that was back when the 650D was released.
I would go with a Thermaltake Suppressor F31. Because it's a mid tower that can accommodate everything I need, and it has acoustic panels to further silence the Noctua fans inside. Did I mention I like silence?
I'd like to see an 570X variant with a solid panel on the reverse side, as I prefer the size and styling on this model over the 460X
Love the look of this case and its tempered glass with RGB fans included. But the deal breaker is probably the lack of cable management holes above the PSU shroud just doesnt make sense for how clean the rest of the case is.
I just bought the new kraken x52 and the Phanteks Enthoo Evolx Atx Glass Case. Your DAT GLASS scene on the review sold me!!!!Now should i sold the case and buy the 570 in christmas? Is it better in term of spaces inside?
Thanks for the reply! I bought also the Evga Hybrid Water Cooler for the GTX 1080 so i am going to need that space! It looks really nice though!
Are you guys doing a review of the phanteks enthoo luxe tempered glass edition?
Hey there. Could I know what kind of motherboard is in that case? I'm concerned with putting a corsair h100i v2 liquid cooler on the top of the case and not having enough clearance for the RAM and CPU socket.
I love the exterior, but I would love to see more radiator space. And considering the space at the top, why don't they made it possible to mount 360rad too? Just add in a lil' bit more length and height and I think it will be perfect.
Interested to buy full tower version of it, if they launch
So many people will change their decision after watching this Review. Keep up the good work
So what radiator size should you get if u want LED RAM?
Any chance you can do a vid on the smallest apu based light gaming pc you can make?
I have the same case but the white version. Mine has the power supply totally enclosed from the inside. And there’s a rubber grommet opening on the far end of the power supply housing for wires to pass thru. My only issue is the RGB lighting controller. It’s not or mine isn’t seen in iCue to be controlled.
I realize there's compromises VS the 470X, but I LOVE the way the 570X looks. Its absolutely gorgeous and I would be willing to deal with some curious oversights. If my house wasn't such a dust bin I'd be all over this.
Hi Dmitry, I wanted to know if it was possible to fit the Kraken X52 on the top of the case? How wide is the radiator + fans on the X62? I'm only getting the X52 and need to know if this will have enough clearance in the case. Thanks!
Just wanted to add that for some reason that PSU shroud just doesn't look right out of the box and that Corsair actually has acknowledged that people don't like how open it is and they do sell an end cover for the 570x on the Corsair website for around $5. It's not a great solution, I would much rather prefer an extension piece like the one present in the 460x but I suppose this was all that Corsair could do so late on into production. It's not great but its a hell of a lot better
I really like the overall architecture of this case, but I think they could've gotten the same look with an aluminum or steel side panel on the cable side, and a psu shroud that actually covers the cables.
Can you fit a 360mm radiator with 3 fans on the top to match the 3 fans on the front?
My case have a cover on the power supply and a rubber grommet above the PSU. I think I got an updated version of the 570x case
8:44 hey Dimitry is that the new Vertagear gaming chair in the background??? :D
+Darius lim it's the new Triigger 350 SE 😍😍😍
awesome i shell wait patiently for its review soon xDDD
Get a mesh one for decent price instead of 'Gaming mesh chair' overpriced
Your case reviews are the best.
So are newer Rigs doing away with optical drives now?
So close but not quite. I'm looking forward to if/when NZXT releases an H440 Tempered glass version.
I would love this case so much more if it was able to hold a 360 radiator in the top vs just the front
We have 1440p and 4K? HardwareCanucks are stepping up the game!
What length extentions would you advise for this case to allow for nice right angled cable management? I've seen other people on youtube do builds in this case with diagonal cables sprawling across the mobo cutout at the back, which looks pretty nasty (given you can see through the backside of the case). Want to make sure my sleeved extensions look badass :D
ok so the 460x offers more room inside ? would it be better for water a cooling kit with sli ?
HOW HAVE I NEVER SEEN THIS CHANNEL BEFORE
