Front panel covers don't hold well at all, Triple radiator allows for noise to exit the case, a cover would have been nice, No 3.5 to 5.25 inch drive bay adapter, Fairly sharp edged front panel, ODD screwless system does not work well, Not a secure LA...
Corsair has really done a great job with their first chassis. They have invested a lot of work and thought into the design and look of the chassis. Instead of going with elaborate looks, the Obsidian 800D goes for the understated look with clean lines ...

The Corsair Obsidian Series 800D chassis might be Corsair's very first attempt at building a case, but you sure couldn't tell that by looking at the Obsidian 800D! ...
Rounding upOn the plus side, there are plenty of holes in the base and it has a very easy to remove filter too. However with just an inch gap from the carpet, depending on how fluffy your shag is could limit the entire cases cooling potential.Another...

The Corsair Obsidian 800D is a lot of case for your money, in fact, for many people, it will be too large, but if you are planning a water cooled gaming rig, it could be perfect for you and here's why:The build quality is excellent, it's not quite got...
