The 650D is the hybrid many have been waiting for. It combines the features of the 600T but adopts the professional, sleek styling of the 800D. The 650D is the first mid-tower inside the Obsidian series and offers this ‘fusion’ at a lower cost than bo...
With the 800D and 700D Corsair had set the bar exceedingly high and this newest entry into the Obsidian range certainly had a lot to live up to. So we were delighted to find that the high quality of the previous cases has been carried on with the 650D...
the Obsidian Series 650D's spacious interior, solid build quality and abundance of features make it one of the very best mid-tower chassis on the market. The Good Delivers Obsidian Series elegance in a smaller, tidier packageStill has ample room for u...
tool free optical bays, SATA3 hard drive dock, built in fan controller, lots of grommets and holes for cable management, easy to access fan filters,
hard drive header is not marked for positive and negative, forcing you to guess which way it plugs in (I guessed wrong), a little pricey,
There are some little things wrong with the Obsidian 650D case, as there are with most every case. But, there are a lot of big things right with this case. It's easy to get into. It has four USB ports on the front. It has a hot swap bay for hard drives...
I'm not particularly happy with the results of Corsair's Obsidian 650D. I love everything else about the case: I love how it looks, I love how easy it is to assemble, I love how feature rich it is, and I love how clean the installations are by virtue of C...
The Corsair 650D was a pleasure to work with while reviewing it. The 650D oozes class with the brushed black exterior, which helps show the quality and pride Corsair takes in making their cases. The stealth I/O ports were a nice touch to help keep the...
Excellent engineering quality, Great external looks, Excellent paint job, Functional hot-swap bay, Large clips to hold the side panels in place, Very well thought out internals, New and unique locking mechanism for ODDs, Excellent cable management possibi
No real dust filter in front, You will loose LED feature if you replace the fans, No adapter for USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 header included
So how would you go about creating a smaller case of an already excellent one and diversify your case line-up at the same time? Ask Corsair. They have not only managed to impress with the Graphite 600T (which is also available in white!), but have port...
Having inspected every nook and cranny of the Corsair Obsidian 650D, we have no doubt it's a high-quality product that shines in virtually every category. Perhaps the only true weakness of Corsair's new arrival is its price. At $190, we're inclined to...
Quality design and construction, Latches make taking side panels off simple, Tool-less installation, A lot of room inside, Great cooling
USB 3.0 connectors are external not internal
When we visited Corsair at CES back in January their big thing is that they wanted to be in the top tier of each type of product they produce. Many companies claim that they want to do that, but Corsair has really done it, especially with their cases....
