Corsair Carbide 275R Best Mid Tower Under $80?

2018-03-20
what's up everybody welcome back once again detective tomorrow now if you're like me you're always trying to get the absolute best bang for your buck which means you want a high-value product but you don't want to pay a lot of money for it and it's definitely something if you want to buy it you want to be able to look at it not go okay I just sacrifice that now if we were like Mario we could just get our coins off a little blinky thing and we'd have cash all day long but unfortunately we all have to work for our cash now we're gonna be doing today is we're gonna give you guys the first looks and talk about the carbide Series 275 our case for the people over at Corsair now this is a mid tower case that has a lot of nice features for the price range first of all it does look very nice in the particular model that we got this is an arctic white and you guys can see right off the bat that there's a nice tempered glass side window so that when you put your build inside of it you're gonna be able to see that build which I think anybody out there who's building their own custom PC wants to see the build they're doing that's just kind of the whole thing with building your own PC otherwise that all just come in a paper brown sack right take a look at the front of the case you guys can see that there's not a totally clear air passageway however there are vents all the way around the front so the air can be brought in now there are a lot of options in the front with this case you can put up to a three hundred sixty millimeter rad right in the front 320 millimeter fans or a 240 millimeter rad all in the front so you get a lot of options there in fact you can put a total of six hundred and twenty millimeter fans in this case on the top you can stick another two or you can put a 240 millimeter rad and then in the back there's also another place for a fan now the case when you buy it right out the market does come with two fans one in the front and one in the rear but you can add more as you see fit on the front there's also removable dust filters so it starts to get a little bit dusty you can take that out clean it and keep the inside of your case nice and clean all the controls for the 275 are are located conveniently on the top of the front of the case now there are two USB 3.0 ports your audio ports your on switch and your restart button on the top of the case you guys will see it there's a removable dust filter I like these things they're pretty flexible you can also watch them making sure you keep your system clean there's plenty of airflow room here so whether you're gonna put in a rat you're gonna put in your fans either way you'll have nice airflow coming through and this will be nice as well now the back of the case it just has a simple metal cover just like most cases do and on the back you guys can see that there's room for your eye on the top you have your seven expansion slots and at the very bottom is where your power supply goes now you can have up to a hundred and eighty millimeter power supply go inside of here so even a full length power supply should you just find one thing you guys want to take note of because this is something becoming very popular and even though people do say that the video cards are kind of up against the glass it's very nice to have the option to be able to vertically mount your video card in your system actually I think it's pretty badass now for those of you wondering what the size of the actual case is it's 460 millimeters by 211 millimeters by 455 millimeters also the maximum GPU length which is how long your video card can be inside the system is 370 millimeters the 275 are also features a maximum CPU cooler height of a hundred and seventy millimeters now this is the distance between your CPU cooler and the glass window okay so we've taken off the glass panel on the side and you guys can see that internally the 275 R is very very clean you can see on the front panel how you could add more fans to it there's also that removable filter that I told you about and like I said before you can fit a really nice 360 millimeter radiator in the front if you want so that's kind of really cool you can also see right to the left of that there are two grommets this helps with cable management and then down below on top of the power supply shroud you can see there's an additional grommet for even more cable management after removing the back panel you guys can see that there's plenty of room back here for cable management you can totally get your hands in the back in here and there's plenty of room to work and get those cables going now there's actually in the manual it says that there is room for three 2.5 slots and two of the three point five slots now you guys can see down the bottom there are two removable bays these are for your 3.5 drives but as far as a 2.5 drives there are actually two spaces that you guys can see with those little black holders but also to the very left of the motherboard there are actually two more places where you can hard mount 2.5 Drive so in reality you can actually mount for 2.5 drives inside this system and on the bottom of the case there are four little feet for keeping your case up and balanced now one other thing that does come with the case it's not a whole lot as far as accessories go but they do give this little box and this box is located inside the 3.5 drive bays and it's all the little holes all over it they fit it and they're kind of like a hard drive but you do get a lot of different stuff however for doing your cable management so you actually get screws for mounting the different drives and their like we talked about and you get a few things for cable management although trust me you'll probably need more than this and if you're planning on doing a really good build some simple things you probably really should have around are a bunch of different size cable ties because it just makes it so much easier to make it clean our next step is to actually do the build inside of the system and a special thanks out to Gary key from the people over at asu's he kicked me down a nice motherboard and video card for this build so we'll be puttin those parts in there and also Coursera's give me a few other parts to help with the build as well so the next step will be doing the build now the only caveat that I can see that anybody's going to really have about this particular case at this price is that yes in the front it's not completely clear the airflow but when you've got those fans bringing air in those holes that are on the side the the vents excuse me the vents they're gonna allow the air to be pulled into the case pretty freely now I know that you know having a completely open is probably the most optimal if you want to you know be a plus plus plus but still I'd say this design is pretty much a minus one thing I personally like in a case is that it feels sturdy you know it doesn't feel flimsy at all moves around your hands now this case is made of steel and obviously the tempered glass front panel but all in all it's a very very well made product I feel that for 80 dollars even from just looking at it without doing the build in it I think it's definitely going to be one of those editors choice products it's just really nice I really like the fact that you can vertically mount a video card yes I know it's slightly up against the glass but when is bring in the air and that air still coming into it that's like it's in a suffocating room with a plug hole and that it was that I would say that's terrible but just being kind of you know with about 3/4 of an inch the glass you're still gonna be bringing a lot of air into that card it's not like the end of the world it's honestly not as bad as you think the temps are probably gonna be a little wee bit higher maybe than being your placement just because the way the air flow goes through but let's just face it a vertical mounted video card just looks totally like I said before it looks kick-ass and and I want this system we build it to be totally clean and totally kick-ass so that will be our next video the build in the 275 are all right folks so like every video down below like button love all the information on this case if you guys want to check one out buy one or just look
