    Anyone have the new Corsair 600T graphite series case yet?

    I'm looking at buying a new case for my main desktop PC and saw that this month Corsair released a sweet looking case, the graphite series 600T. If anyone has one, can you leave your impressions please. Or if anyone else wants to chime in on this case, you're more than welcome to.

    It comes in black or special edition white. I'm really looking at buying the white version. It's got a really clean look and won't show dust nearly as bad as all my previous black cases.
    And it's reasonably priced at $140usd.

    I found the airflow to be a little lacking personally but other than that a very nice case to work with.

    It's nicely designed, although the optional HDD cage location (directly in front of the PSU) is a bit difficult to deal with. It's pretty quite

    Nice job miahallen. I've been looking at this case for a build for my wife. I may have to look a little closer at it now.

    I saw the white one at Sacramento Lanfest, nice! I own a black one that I bought side window for I haven't had any issues with mine. Temps seem ok and as far as hd in front of psu I didn't use it.

    Just order one a few days ago. (Black) Corsair now sell a blacks side panel like the one with the white case. Taking the big fan off the top and installing it on the side panel and installing 3 120's on top should take care of air flow. At least to my thinking. My plans are to use a H50 drawing air (120 fan)from out side of case and duct it to the rear/top 120 so the warm air never gets into the case.

    It's a shame they did so many things right on this case, and left out the side fan. It's the same kind of head-scratching thing they did with the 800D hard drive cooling solution (or lack thereof).

    Whoa, both these mentioned cases look beautiful in their own way.

    The white case comes with the windowed side panel and a mesh panel that you can install that has spots for 4x120mm.

    Hmm, i wonder how much space there is between sidepanel mesh and GPUs, as in if one can fit rad with one row of fans inbetween :/

    I have the black version of this case which I got when it was just released last year. The 2 large fans r kinda bad, so i replaced the top one with 2x 120mm fans, i replaced the rear 120mm fan with a better one, and also put an extra 120mm fan behind the hdd cage at the front to improve intake which also blows over my 2x480s gtxs. airflow is much better now and i couldnt be happier

    why go into that trouble when you can fit one 2x120 on the top
    and one 1x200 the front
    (one 1x120 in the rear exhaust fan is also an option)
    I just finished seting up one of these today
    and must say that this case is more than decent for it's price.
    A job well done Corsair.
    i look forward to get my hands on the white version as well....

    Well, I put in an order for the white version yesterday after doing some further reading which confirmed Corsair changed out the 200mm fans for better and slightly faster versions. Also the included window AND optional mesh panel helped seal the deal. I'm going to air cool things at first and when I get my tax return, it will be switched to all water cooling. I've been playing with the idea of water cooling for years but never made that leap. It's time.
