• Reviews around side panel (2.40 of 5)

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

    • , side panels are a little awkward to put back on (a hinge system would have been awesome), no built in GPU support bracket to combat sag (bought one from mnpctech which works great), an optional basement would have been cool, and it'd be nice if you could mount the HDD bays into the 5.25" bays since people rarely have optical drives anymore
    • Hope you're great at cable management because tucking the side panel of this thing is a nightmare.
    • Now that all components are in the case, I can see that the side panel is warped
    • A couple of examples - the side panels have the convention Thumbscrews ( like me HP Elite).
    • I feel like the side panels are pretty
    • The window side panel had many scratches on it
    • Booth side panel are flimsy and wouldn't stay with out the screw.
    • The side panel with the window on mine is very squeaky for some reason
    • The side panels are somewhat flimsy
    • Worse, the side panels are very flimsy and requires to manually hold them when mounting them, even though the base has holes to lock them in place
    • Doesn't even align right and won't close properly but the side panel without the window fits perfect.
    • The side panels seem very flimsy
    • The side panel looks great for what it is, but some people that want to show off more may want to go the tempered glass route
    • Great case, side panels are a pain though
    • Once you remove the back screws, the side panel won't immediately fall off, but if you breathe on it too hard be prepared to catch it before it hits the floor
    • Most everything is toolless install (Hard drive trays, side panels, bay drives)
    • Pros: Plenty of space (plenty room for several HDD's), Front panel 2 USB 3.0 ( and 2 USB 2.0), the side panel hides the wires.
    • The side panels are a bit flimsy, and the acrylic window creaks as the panel flexes
    • The motherboard-side panel in particular is quite difficult to put on compared to much cheaper cases I've owned in the past
    • The side panels are very easy to remove and replace which was also a big bonus
    • The clear side panel makes it easy to check for dust
    • well I unboxed it and as soon as I took the case out you can see it and for a guy who likes
    • I think this is the first time Corsair ever release a best p/p
    • Will be doing some custom work to it eventually, but it looks so good as
    • That thing is a pain to clean as it takes multiple wipes in order to get a small smudge off
    • This case really did not impress me as much as i thought it would
