The Corsair Carbide Series: Built for Builders.
The Carbide Series shares vital DNA with the award-winning Corsair
Obsidian and Graphite Series. They’re acclaimed for their ease of use
and performance-oriented engineering, and this philosophy is abundant
in the design of the Carbide Series.
Future-Ready.
Support for USB 3.0 and 2.5” SSDs is built-in. Two USB 3.0
connectors are provided on the front panel and connect directly to
motherboards with compatible USB 3.0 headers. Integrated SSD support
lets you install 2.5” solid-state drives in any of the hard drive bays,
without having to deal with adapters.
Easy access.
Thumb screws on the side panels and tool-free drive installation
mean that you’ll spend less quality time with your screwdriver, and the
integrated dust filters can be quickly removed for easy maintenance.
Looking good, inside and out.
The beauty on the inside goes beyond the black-painted interior.
Corsair’s innovative cable management system provides a straightforward
way to route cables behind the motherboard, not across it where it can
interfere with airflow and give your system a cluttered look. And
since looks are an important part of any build, you’ll appreciate the
ability to turn the front panel fan white LEDs on or off with the push
of a button.
