Does anybody happen to know anything about this?......ballpark release date etc? I know Corsair are very tight on releasing information about products they are currently developing, but there seem to have been some leaks about this case. Here is one of the links...... http://wccftech.com/corsair-900d-godzilla-full-tower-chassis-leaked/ If it looks like that and can house a pair of 360/480mm radiators, I will definitely be buying one. The only thing lacking on the 800D was space for radiators.
Pretty good looking case, digging the side panel's window! The designs of the All in one CPU cooling kits also! They look much better tbh.
So im getting rid of my 800D because its massive, then they release a bigger one, make it out of aluminium and it will be epic..but they wont, it will be steel like my 800D and weigh an absolute ton !
Even larger than the 800D? LOL! The original wasn't really suited for water cooling either, so there just never was any real use for all that space.
I love the weight in my 800D. Knowing that I could hurl it at the wall and it would have an effect makes me smile for some reason. Loads of empty space in my 800D, so I'll be sticking with it, but the 900D does look very nice indeed.
The heavier a case the better as far as I'm concerned. I'd like to see the thieves that could lug my fully watercooled Arc Midi up and down the stairs, weighs an absolute ton!
Not really suited for WC? 360mm roof, 140mm rear exhaust and 240mm in the floor all without getting a dremel out isn't really falling into the not suitable category. Besides, some of us buy cases to fill a space, rather than to fill with hardware.
Aye, it's 15Kg empty and then throw in all the components and it's probably comfortably over 20kg. I love it though, sturdy, quiet, spectacular to look at. I'm still trying to get a 700D side panel to mod though. Just so damn expensive.
And where is all that air coming in from? Where ever it is, there isn't really going to be dust filters. I liked the case (yes, I had it, otherwise I wouldn't be commenting on it, duh) and it just made no sense. If you have an enormous motherboard, five 5,25" devices and NEED to hot swap your HDD, it makes sense, but other than that it's just an enormous case that costs too much and comes with a side window - want it or not.
I still think the 700D is the best looking corsair case. The mid tower in that leak looks quite pretty in a fridgy sort of way.
I see what you mean, but dust is always a problem in a case with decent airflow. Also, see 700D for less tinsel.
I always found the best way toi stop dust is with a set of woman's tights... Just cut out some sections, stretch over the fans and secure, and you're aces.
Missing the point there... The ventilation just doesn't make sense, no matter how many filters you add. (Just for extra clarification: I've owned a D800, I'm not just jealous or whatnot) Works, but doesn't really look good or make it easy to maintain.
I love the shape of it, but I have been wanting to make my own custom window with backlit acrylic lettering on it. Think I have an image of what I had planned here somewhere... Found it...
