The three fans are connected to it, with room for another three. You won’t find this hub in the standard 4000D and 4000D airflow. The PWM cables you’ll have to route to your motherboard or another controller – the hub in the rear of the chassis only handles the RGB. CoolingĪs mentioned up top, the 4000X RGB comes with three 120mm RGB PWM spinners at the front, which are wired to an RGB control hub at the rear of the chassis. A cable cover is present to ensure you can’t peek into the rear of the chassis and see the mess back there. And though you can opt to vertical-mount your GPU, we would avoid this option as the two vertical slots are quite close to the side panel, so the looks will cost you in thermals - and you likely won’t see much anyway through the dark tint. In the main compartment there’s room for up to ATX size motherboards and the biggest of graphics cards. Behind the motherboard tray are two 2.5-inch caddies, which you can move to the top of the PSU shroud if you want to show off your SSDs. At the bottom is a PSU shroud that hides the lower clutter, where you’ll be able to fit large power supplies and up to two hard drives.
CORSAIR AIRFLOW 5000 SERIES
On the inside, the 4000 series cases feature a commonly found compact ATX layout. So for this review we’ll be focusing on the 4000X – but don’t worry, we’ll provide testing data on the 4000D Airflow, too. Other than those differences, the cases are all identical to one another. The 4000D will come with two non-RGB fans, with the front either covered with a solid metal slab or a meshed front panel on the 4000D Airflow. The 4000X RGB comes with three fans behind a tempered glass panel at the front of the chassis. Corsair 4000X (Black) at Amazon for $129.99.Tempered Glass Panel, RGB (only on 4000X RGB)
