    CORSAIR Obsidian 500D RGB SE Mid-Tower Case, 3 RGB Fans, Smoked Tempered Glass, Aluminum Trim - Integrated Commander PRO Fan and Lighting Controller

    • The only thing that brothers me is that the screws for the fan was a bit hard to put in
    • A bit disappointed, but overall satisfied.
    • The glass doors come unattached, so the case is a bit easier to move around once you get it out of the box, but it still weighs a lot
    • It doesn't hurt a bit that the case just blends into the environment so well.
    • The plastic is a bit weak and larger motherboards wont fit proper.
    • custom hard line liquid cooling was a bit of a squeeze with a 150ml internal
    • The screwless SSD cages are a nice touch, but a bit hard to use since if you are using the sata power connections that is in the middle of the cable, it may be a bit hard to attach them since the cable might be right up against the windowless side
    • A bit noisier than I expected though
    • If you like a bit more of a utilitarian look, this is a great choice.
    • Something a bit more subtle and decisive than the visibly and audibly loud case and fan combo I had before with my joke of an Antec DF-85 (no kidding, look it up, it was Dumb with a capital D)
    • The case did lose a slight bit of rigidity with the side panel off, but it gives no intention of warping or collapsing
    • A bit disappointed, but overall satisfied.
    • The PCIe slot for the GPU doesn't line up very well and it's causing my GPU to warp a little bit, I am not sure if it's the tooling during manufacturing of if my case was warped somehow during shipping
    • In addition, these can be a bit tricky to mount
    • no problem even with the fans raised up a bit to accommodate the memory
    • I like the magnets because they are a bit easier than slotting filters into specific slots
    • The front fan filter vibrates a little bit, and the built in I/O cables need to be a little longer so that they can be routed behind the mobo
    • The windowed panel looks great although the side panels are a bit thinner than I would have preferred
    • well I unboxed it and as soon as I took the case out you can see it and for a guy who likes
