Favorite Corsair Case Series?


So which series would you pick and why? I would pick the Graphite series (760T) just for looks and spacious design. I do however like the Obsidian series also. But, which one do you like more?

I think the Graphite line is the most interesting. Corsair should make a baller matx case for those who want an SLI/Xfire set up in a SFF. It'd be a nice contrast to their 250D itx case.

I like the c70 the most for looks, but it does need a bit of a revision, with more dust filters and USB ports, as well as a side panel either with a window and no fan vents or just fan vents with no window.

We all have different interests and all, some people like certain appearances and others dont, i like aggressive cases and others dont. Same with anything in life, we all have different hair, music, future cars, houses etc. We all have different ways and opinions of doing things, thats the beauty of the gene pool.

The Obsidian series has gone down the drain, the 800D was a beast of a case, really well built, good to build in and had so many features that others didn't. Then we have the 900D which is the most poorly built case I've ever seen, the motherboard tray can flex so much it would probably break something. The Graphites are pretty cool, they are usually Corsair's experiment cases and look nothing alike, however turn out to be pretty good. I have a C70 so my perception of the Vengeance line may be skewed, but they are the best built cases I've ever seen. I've dropped things onto my case and had the object that I dropped become damaged. A problem is that the aesthetic of the case becomes boring very quickly, after 8 months I couldn't stand to look at my case. As for the Carbide, they are great budget cases, but I would never recommend them to anyone who can afford a better case.

I always liked the 350D because of it being a smaller form factor case with a great window, as well as having good cooling potential. For an ATX size, the 750D is very popular and good looking, and the 450D is an almost better looking version of it for people on a budget.
