CORSAIR 3500X ARGB Mid-Tower ATX PC Case – Panoramic Tempered Glass – Reverse Connection Motherboard Compatible – 3X CORSAIR RS120 ARGB Fans Included – White

Amazing case, top tier quality
This review is for the CORSAIR 3500X in white color variation.I purchased this case to replace an old Phanteks Enthoo Evolv TG that I’ve had for 8 years. My goal was to modernize the look and to have a black and white/grey aesthetic. I also wanted to improve some of the airflow and reduce the total weight of the PC.The build quality of the 3500X is excellent especially taking price into consideration. I purchased mine during the holiday sales but even at the retail price, I think it is a good value.Panel removal is toolless. However, to remove the side panels, I do think it is necessary to first remove the top panel first. The front panel can be removed if you can wedge a fingernail in between the glass and frame but isn’t difficult.I am impressed at the rigidity of the frame and design. The back of the motherboard side has plenty of room and tie down locations for cables. Since the side is solid, I didn’t bother to do any cable management. I just tucked excess cables in the power supply chamber. There is plenty of support for fans and radiators.Aesthetically this is a great looking case to me, and it looks like a quality case. I like the fish tank style case look without having the fish tank style case width. This case is perfect for my requirements because my desk does not have the room for a wide case.The tempered glass panels are crystal clear that helps to do a “show” build. The glass is so clear that I didn’t bother to remove them in my pictures. There are some slight reflections in my pictures that appear as smudges.This case is only a little bit wider than a typical mid tower ATX case yet still have side and front tempered glass with cable room behind the motherboard. The only thing I don’t like about the appearance, is the blank power supply cover/chamber. It is especially noticeable in the white color, looking like a blank piece of paper. I feel like it might look better if they perforated the power supply cover with the repeating “Y” pattern like the back of the case. I didn’t reduce my rating for this because it is a personal preference with the looks.Overall, I really like the value for what you get. The quality is high, and it looks really nice. The only downside is there is no included manual. It is not difficult to build in this case if you have some experience building PC’s, but for a novice or first-time builder I would recommend watching some builder videos, mainly to get an idea of optimal fan and radiator placement. Also, a note for novices is to pay attention to use the right screws. The smallest/finest threaded screws are for the 2.5-inch SSD drive mounting. The mid-sized (rounded head) screws are for the motherboard and radiator mounting to the case frame. The long bolt screws are for mounting fans to the bottom of the case. There are “normal” fan screws (short flat head with bigger threads). This is where a manual would have been helpful.Noteworthy components used in my build are the AsiaHorse AMICI-5GT fans. https://a.co/d/8Vc85pzPictured in this review are the white and black 120mm fans. The white (bottom and side) fans are reverse flow versions.

It is that good
I’d dreamed of having this case for a while now so to say that apart of it being gorgeous it is actually a great case. All you need is your screwdriver, everything needed and more is included. Three Corsair fans with RGB are also included in the case! I had no trouble with cable management and it was very beginner friendly to handle. It’s beautiful but durable and cooling capacity is amazing, there are so many places for fans to fit and its size allows for there to still be space left in your case even with 6 fans installed. Plenty of space for cosmetics which allows for further customization options. Keep in mind it’s a heavy case because it’s a big case point blank. There’s a space for everything, this case is as good as it looks.

nice but needs wire hole covers and better hardware
so, this case gets the job done and is really pretty. it’s got great airflow and I love the pop off siding design. lots of room and easy to work with.unfortunately they really cheaped out on the hardware (poor quality screws and case accessories). it should also have simple rubber covers over the wire holes OR cost $20 less.the included fans are okay. the RGB is nice, the noise is acceptable and the power sharing is solid. arctic and thermalright fans are nicer though.it’s hard to recommend this case based on the pricing and quality when montech, sama and diypc are all so close in quality.bottom line, if you like the design and the brand, it’s fine, but it should cost $80 or they should add the basic accessories of a “next tier” case
