    Very nice review! I'm not a big fan of the fishbowl design in general, though this probably wouldn't be my case of choice, but it does look well done. I do appreciate that Corsair seems to be shifting to a default of not including any fans, I almost never end up using the ones that come with any case I buy. I'll be curious to see Corsair's next iteration of the more traditional tower cases like the 4000/5000/7000 models.

    Thank you so much for posting this excellent review. The case construction does look solid to me, and I agree with you on the other points you made. You present so well. It is almost like you are also a professor at a local university. The videography is uniformly excellent and done to a high standard. I was worried that I missed an episode from you and I checked every few days -- and yes, I do subscribe to your channel. Your eyeglasses seem to be new, perhaps? I greatly enjoyed this episode. Perhaps you can consider doing a future episode on how to repair a complete system which has been physically damaged. Here is a possible scenario: a person moves a system (meaning a functioning motherboard, power supply, GPU, etc which are properly installed in a case) to another room, but in the process, accidentally drops the case. How does one triage the damage and then repair the case and its contents? I'm speaking hypothetically. I have not yet had such a misfortune. I did recently drop a very heavy uninterruptible power supply a few inches onto a desk, and it cost me part of a fingernail.

    An excellent review that seems to have covered all of the information the consumer needs to know. If you decide to buy a project zero or BTF motherboard you'll have even less cable clutter in the front of the case. Using Corsair iCue Link you can reduce cable clutter further. If you live in Europe the Corsair EU website is out of stock at the moment but some retailers should have stock. There might be more stock on the Corsair EU website next week.

    Great review 👍 Looks like great build quality as always, and if you into the the whole wood thing, sure... But this case is absolutely massive, and the top panel looks extremely restrictive.. Sure it can hold an ATX PSU, but It's not "mini" in any sense of the word.. Hope they will make a 1500x... My mini is staying 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Ive had my parts picked out for a couple months for when i buy later this year. I am kind of intrigued with the new project zero b650m back connect motherboard and now that corsair has a compatible case im actually wanting to try the combo lol On the current case i had picked out i was going to run a 360 aio on the side and exhaust on top but if i were to do aio exhaust on top and intake from the side with 2-140mm fans would that be alright? Not familiar with airflow on these fish bowl style cases

    They lost me on no-ATX at that price. Many of us still like our PCIe connectivity, especially with today's obese GPUs. // Keeping the height low but maintaining top 360 AIO compatibility I guess... for... pushing cross-product sales? And the I/O, personally, would have been nicer on the front. // Anyway, the way the grommets are placed in a 90 degree notch would be fantastic for good E-ATX-width cable management you can't even get in many bigger cases.
