- Strengths:
- Extremely easy to work with, esp side panels
Awesome Cable management
Convenient SSD/HD mounts
HD drive bays can be placed in different areas
Convenient dust filters
Good, quiet cooling
- Weaknesses:
- No manual of any sort, you have to go to corsair forums to find any info
Dust filters aren't fine enough, you probably want to add filter media
No screwless system for pci slots.
internal USB3 has to come out through the back and is a bit awkward
- Summary:
- Excellent case, I absolutely love it. I few minor flaws do little to detract from the overall EXCELLENCE of the case.
Good Case Overall

- Strengths:
- no tools needed
Cable management is great
I love the easy access to both sides
lots of room
the look is sleek
I like the usb and usb 3.0 on the top
the dust catchers come off and are easily cleaned
can lock the panels with a key that is included
- Weaknesses:
- It is a loud
It is a big case - not really a mid-tower
when using the USB on the top - it shuts down computer and restarts...
fan knob on the top is uselss
- Summary:
- I really like this case with a few exceptions...notably the fact that when I insert a usb key into the top of the case it constantly restarts the machine! I have a coolmaster water cooling system but have the fans in the chassis going and it is still quite a loud case. The size is something as well - it is a huge case, but once again the tool-less mounting and the easy access as well as look makes it an overall great case for enthusiasts!
Not so quiet

- Strengths:
- Excellent cable management
Lots of room for oversised PSU and Video Cards
Tooless drive mounting
Nice look
- Weaknesses:
- I don't know why everyone raves about its quietness. I was trying to replace a Cosmos case, and those fans are what I'd consider quiet. Even at the lowest setting the Graphite fans' noise level and LED combination became annoying to me. I ended up transferring everything back to the Cosmos.
- Summary:
- I liked this case a lot with the exception of the fans. It'd take another $40 at minimum to install true noiseless fans but I don't want to spent the extra money. Unfortunately, the case sat in the box for almost two weeks so I can't take it back.
All in all, this is a very good case albeit not as noiseless as I was expecting it to be. To someone who has no issue with fan noise and LEDs, it'd be a good purchase for the money.
Great Case!

- Strengths:
- -Huge room on the inside
-Excellent cable management capabilities
-Great for SLI/Xfire
-Looks GREAT
-Can easily pop the left and right panels
-Great for water-cooling setups
-installation of hard drive bays faced towards the panel rather than facing to the back
-easy to pop-off dust filter and fan screen
-almost a full tower!
-heavy
-supports SSD
-Removable and positionable HDD cages for beautification or for maximum air flow.
-...and can lock the panels with the included key =)
- Weaknesses:
- -Huge
-Heavy
-Weak stock fans
-almost a full tower!
- Summary:
- This is one of those products that is so good for others, that it's bound to have flaws on others eyes. Personally, I love the look, how huge it is and how heavy it is. It houses the huge new graphics cards with no issue, compared to most mid sized towers. But by God's sakes, DO NOT expect yourself to go to LANS with this. This monster, when dropped, would probably crush a puppy. Think of the 600T like a 1080p 60'' LCD TV. It's meant to be left at home, with all its glory!
Great Case

- Strengths:
- -Lots of room
-Lots of rubber gromets are great for cable managment
-HDD slots are easy to use and tool less
-Front USB 3.0
-Good airflow
- I have the White model and it reminds me of a storm trooper!
-Mobo tray has a hole in the back for mounting CPU cooler brackets
- Weaknesses:
- -BIG, I would consider this a full tower not a mid tower like advertized
-Documentation sucked, just a picture of the case with little blurb
- PSU grill is underneath the case and im worried that it wont allow enough airflow to keep it cool... Will have to wait and see.
- Summary:
- This case is big, lots of space inside, it has a lot of rubber gromets for routing cables to the back side of the motherboard tray. Hard drive mounting is done without screws and only takes a second. BIG fans are not very loud and move alot of air but glow white. Fan speed dial and USB 3.0 on the front of the case are nice bonuses. I think this case could be a bit smaller on the outside without sacrificing room on the inside, it looks a little goofy under my desk.. Its almost as tall!

- Strengths:
- -Cable routing is a pleasure to work with
-Dust filters for the PSU
-Side panel ease of access
-Cavernous interior
- Weaknesses:
- -USB 3.0/Fan controller somewhat useless
-Did not come with windowed/mesh side panel (had to shell out 40 bucks inc shipping)
-2x 200mm fans do not move much air and have an (subjective) annoying white led.
- Summary:
- Received as a xmas christmas from my sweethear.
Excellent case for those who like to constantly update their rig. Transferred over my components from a CM 690. Cable routing made my build look extremely clean and professional. The case is quiet but not the coolest on the block. After installing my GTX 590, I opted to pick up the side panel so that i can attach 2 case fans as intake to cool my GPIU. Case also a bit wide.
Must have been a friday whn they built mine!

- Strengths:
- Graphite? Awesome!, cable management is almost perfect, customizable drive bays!, tons of room, toolless design for the drive bays is great, nice front panel with 4 USB and one USB 3.0.
- Weaknesses:
- No toolless rear slot covers, no extras at all (not even a few standoffs which I ended up needing), no dedicated 2.5" drive bays (but they mount in the 3.5" bays), no side window (I can do without it), no coasters to replace the feet, could use one more wire routing hole and grommet above the power supply at the rear for micro ATX boards.
- Summary:
- As everyone else is saying, best case I have ever owned. I love just about everything about it. The case is a mid tower, but in height only as the depth is deeper than any other mid tower I've built. This leaves lots of room for long video cards. I got some graphite pearl touchup paint painted the rear plates for my cards and the main board. Matches perfectly and looks great.
Make sure your power supply has long enough cables. See my build on Facebook. Just search for nesa.
BEST in its CLASS
