Corsair Obsidian 450D Review

As always you bring up so many good points about what is missing or needed to make the case better I was wondering if Corsair (considering you do seem to have a good rapport with them) would ever consider creating a Linus Tech Tips inspired case.  Give you the opportunity to have input into making a true enthusiast's inspired case.  It is something I would like to see and I'm sure something many others would want as well.

 

 

 

This has most likely been mentioned a million times elsewhere on these forums (although I haven't searched) but I just took the opportunity to suggest it in this thread.

I would use the dust filter. I also don't understand why anyone would use this case without the top dust filter? I can see if you wanted an external radiator but, as Linus pointed out in the video, the rear grommets have been sealed up making an external radiator impossible without the user modding the case. If you are willing and able to go through all that just for an external radiator why not buy another case that allows you to do so? Other than that I guess you would mount external fans for push pull? I'm new to pc building so maybe its my inexperience and ignorance that prevents me from understanding why someone would opt to not use the top dust filter.

I was considering the H440 but after hearing about the cooling issues I think I'll go with this case

It's just an overall bad case. The Define R5, Enthoo Pro, 652S and H440 are all much better

Those are all silent cases. I use headphones, so the noise it makes is irrelevant for me, I need max airflow for my SLI.
