for a while there see my Corsair was releasing a new case or revision of a case every month or so but it's been about a year since then of course there has not been just sitting on their ass they've taken their time creating something that's far from cookie-cutter enter the Corsair 600 sea freshbooks is the super simple invoicing solution that lets you get organized save time and get paid faster click now to learn more the most immediately notable thing about both the clear 600 CE and the quiet 600 CE are their inverted layouts this while not an original idea is a pretty damn cool design decision that will set this case apart from the vast majority of its running mates in the 150 ish US dollar price range you'd think that because the power supply is at the top due to the inverted motherboard that there wouldn't be a basement and you'd be right but that didn't stop Coursera from including an attic which i think is actually pretty damn cool but before we explore the attic and the rest of the insides of the case let's take a step back and properly investigate the outside first the front features a subtle and classy design with the corsair sales logo in the bottom right and a panel cutout in the top that is held closed by two magnets this panel conceals the two available five and a quarter inch bays which looking at most computer builds these days you probably won't be using the sides of the front bezel have relatively large cutouts for airflow reasons as there's some fan mounts just behind this front panel the left side panel on both versions is just a flat clean surface with the right side panel on the quiet version being the same naturally however the clear version mixes it up with a windowed right side panel there's a latch on the left-hand side near the front panel which quickly and easily releases the door which sits on hinges this is a pretty cool system if you're someone who wants to show off your handiwork also if you want to remove the panel completely it's very easy to lift off of its hinges but not so easy that it's annoying and is just going to randomly fall off the top of the case is also mostly just a plain panel - the i/o which includes two USB 2.0 2 USB 3.0 headphone and microphone jacks a storage activity led a solid feeling three speed fan controller and satisfyingly clicky reset and power buttons on the bottom we see the four large feet supporting the case on raising it off the ground for improved air flow especially in carpeted areas we also see that a large very large filter is magnetically held in place and is again a to remove but not so easy that it just falls off speaking of supporting the case I did some structural integrity tests and overall the case is really solid the back features the power supply mounting plate enabling you to install the power supply through the back of the case instead of from the inside which also segues us perfectly into the attic of the case not that I'd recommend it but you can take the panel off that hides your power supply and cable nest by removing two screws from the back of the case and then releasing the clips from the bottom of the attic cover you can also decide to leave the main large panel in which will cover up the cable nest and your optical drive bay area but take out the smaller panel with the Corsair sales logo in order to show off your power supply also covered by this attic panel but below the main shelf platform are two three and a half inch hard drive bays which slide in on more of a platform than a rail system and feel quite solid overall behind the motherboard tray there are three tool lists SSD trays which work really well and make it super easy to install or remove an SSD due to how they have a little plastic bit pushing against it from the top but then also a plastic clip holding it in so it definitely won't fall but if you want to remove it it helps you help it below this there's a large cutout for backside access to your motherboard allowing you to install back plates for CPU coolers super super easily around the motherboard there's cutouts for running cables most of which have rubber grommets to help make your cable management look all nice and pretty no complaints about the actual quality of the rubber grommets although I do wish that those two bottom cutouts had them as well you can fit a heatsink that's 200 millimeters tall a power supply that's 210 millimeters long and a graphics card that is a whopping 370 millimeters long if you can find one you can install up to a 240 or 280 millimeter radiator in the front a 140 millimeter radiator in the back and a 280 or three sixty millimeter radiator in the bottom which is a pretty wicked amount of cooling of course air just wanted to go for air cooling here I would have liked to see them ditch one of the hard drive bays and both the optical drive bays in order to make the case about four ish inches shorter but in its current configuration it would be really easy to set up a pretty wicked amount of water cooling kit and it would look pretty amazing due to the motherboard orientation as well another thing to note just as we close out here is that the inside of the panels on the quiet version are lined with sound dampening material and the the clear one it has no sound dampening material on the inside in conclusion this case has overall very solid construction and interesting and fun motherboard layout and loads of expansion options at a pretty decent price for what you're getting if you want a relatively standard looking case outside but an interesting and funky set up for the internals this may be exactly what you're looking for crunchyroll is a site created by anime fans for anime fans that offers the most current episodes of new shows straight from Japan like the asterisk war and anti-magic Academy the 35th test platoon all of this content on their site is professionally subtitled so head over to crunchyroll.com slash Linus and you can sign up for a 30 day free trial of crunchyroll premium completely ad free if you enjoy a lot of the benefits like 1080p streaming getting new episodes within an hour of their premiere and being able to stream anywhere anytime from a variety of devices like your phone tablet or even game console you can continue your premium end membership to crunchyroll for only 695 per month so again head over to crunchyroll.com slash Linus and check them out thank you for watching guys if this video sucked you know what to do but Fu's awesome get subscribed hit the like button or even consider supporting us by using our affiliate code shop on Amazon for like Christmas gifts and stuff buying cool t-shirt that isn't this one I totally forgot to put the right t-shirt on my bad man anyways or of a direct monthly contribution through the forum now that you're done doing all of that stuff you might be wondering what to do next so click the little button up here to check out another video where we use the Corsair case I don't know which one yet I'm just going to find one
