Is this a good case?

Don’t let the compact dimensions of the 400C fool you. It can house a full ATX motherboard and multiple GPUs.

yes it will fit, and it is a very nice looking case

Hello, I would really love to know if the Corsair Carbide 400C will be enough for my rig:

Motherboard: Gigabyte H170-GAMING3

GPU: Nvidia GTX 1080 ASUS Strix

PSU: EVGA 750 GQ

 

Thank you for your time guys!

Yeah, it should work, but you might want to look at something like the Phanteks P400 or Fractal S340 (in my opinion they don't look quite as nice as the 400C but saving some might help)

The 400C is most certainly not a bad case but there are weird cost-saving measures like the lack of upper rubber grommets and the cheap PSU shroud as well as chintzy plastic quality from Corsair's non-Obsidian cases that really shouldn't be implemented in a case as expensive as the 400C.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Phanteks has a good range at good prices. I have the P400S and I recommend it for full ATX build
