I have to say, corsair is milking the obsidian line. Originally it was their high end line. Then they made the 650d. That was pushing it. The 750d I get, but the 350D?? and now this? What is the point of this lineup anymore?

Finally my Santa hat doesn't look out of place

I'm really digging that case. Sure, it's bulky for an mITX case, but it still looks really nice and I like the watercooling implementation. I really wish there was more space for bigger fans in the back, though. 80mm? Seriously? I get why Corsair did it, but I don't think I would ever use 80mm fans.

Why's everybody complaining? They've made 3 cases now in this generation that had the exact same cosmetics but were just different sizes. Use your brain.

 

Taking an existing design and simply squishing and stretching it to fit a different shape or size is lazy and stupid. It would have looked much better if they had settled on the form factor first, then designed the case around the form factor.

 

Let me show you an example of why I hate this:

I will always maintain that the Prodigy was a blatant rip-off from the older generation Mac Pro's case. They simply took a Mac Pro, squished it down, fattened it out and built it from plastic instead of gorgeous aluminium.

 

Let me show another example. My favourite car is the DeLorean. I think it's beautiful, cool, awesome and so on. But whilst I love this:

I most certainly don't love this:
