I picked this case because I'm part moth at heart.

I picked this case because I'm part moth at heart. The full tempered glass view is perfect if you plan on doing a PC build with lots of purty lights. The cable management on the back side is pretty neat, as well. There's a channel with a cover that thumbscrews into place where you can run the majority of your cables. This is a great feature because the tempered glass goes ALL THE WAY AROUND. Without the channel you'd have to spend a lot more time playing with zip ties. The RGB fans have their own Corsair controller. This is independent of whatever your motherboard might handle through its own RGB wizardry, so be aware of that. If you want a solution that is compatible with the popular ASUS Aura feature, you will need to purchase different case fans that can plug into motherboard RGB headers. These Corsair fans are NOT compatible.

Big, Ominous and demands respect!

I really bit off a little more then i could chew with this one however, I feel I am better at cable management because of it... Lets not kid ourselves here, the only reason why anyone would be demented enough to choose this case is because... 1. They like a challenge 2. They have a huge ego 3. They want the best RGB build I went all 3, in the end, I got #3. The challenging part was how freaking cramped it is on the other side for cables against that glass. This case imo is one of the only cases on the market that screams " LOOK IN ME!!!!" and can do so while giving back insane results when all put together with proper bling. It's big, like real big, and ominous AF but demands anyone's respect, so don't disrespect back by adding in no RGB! And if you decide to go for this case with no RGB then for shame!! No seriously you could have gone with something much better if "bling, bling" is a no-no. So, Cons: cable management, weight, finger prints O_o and lastly, RGB or it's kind of a waste as there are much better and much cheaper options for those people. Pro's: Everything else! Space to work in, now comes w/ shroud cover, sexy, well built, ect ect. P.S Just a heads up to any buying the x470 gaming 7 for this case. Due to that board ( and the new x470 Hero7 ) having built on back IO covers I had what can only be described as "rage inducing" to try and get this board to line up with the screw holes... 4 hours. On the back of this case is this "kind of" metal lip that lays across the edge of where the IO cover pops out of and thanks to that integrated IO shield on the mobo i could not get it to fit! But after many hours of trying different angles... I got it *heads up*

Good looking well designed case

Good looking well designed case. The mesh is magnetic behind the glass panels, which makes it easy to access items after it is built. Plenty of radiator room, even if you go with too big of a reservoir. Things to note; no vertical gpu support, Fan hookup(taking up 3 fan connectors on mobo),Bottom mounted PSU put the CPU power cable at max length.

Better than the non-mirrored versions

I purchased this case as an upgrade for the 570X white that I purchased about a year ago. I liked the look of the mirrored black tempered glass, and the upgrades that this version of the case came with were the selling points for me - this version includes the front panel to the PSU shroud, "front panel" IO that includes USB-C, and RGB case logos on the front and PSU shroud. I had purchased the added $15 front panel for the PSU shroud and USB-C front panel IO replacement from Corsair for the previous version of this case that I owned. I'm glad these are included in this version, but what was really bugging me about the old one was the white Corsair logos on the PSU shroud and front. Everything else in this case (and that Corsair makes, more or less) is RGB focused now, so to have solid white LEDs was not inline with the aesthetic. They're originally connected to the built-in RGB controller but can be connected to a Lighting Node or Commander and set as a SP RGB Series Fan to enable iCue control. With these upgrades I was able to streamline the aesthetic I was looking for while retaining USB-C front panel functionality. The only downside aesthetically is that the power button/LED is still white.

Beautiful, well constructed case

Absolutely worth the money. Beautiful case constructed of high-quality materials across the board. Lots of clever features that make doing elegant, clean builds very easy. I particularly liked the cable management features. I was able to get a clean front and back rather than my usual clean front/wired mess in the back build. I was pleasantly surprised at how much wiring had already been done by Corsair. Note, you give up some features in the pursuit of looks with this case. It’s somewhat small (I’m used to full towers), lacks a reset button, HDD light, and usb 2 on the front panel. No way to incorporate optical drives or anything front mounted (card readers, fan controllers, etc.). Included SP120 fans are limited to displaying 7 different solid colors only, and have limited display modes. You’ll need to upgrade fans and controller to achieve multicolored RGB goodness. Also note, you don’t get the cool view of top fans when using a top-mounted radiator (unless you figure out how to put the fans in pull mode). Overall, an excellent case that is well worth the price. Highly recommended.

Beautiful case that looks sexy

I originally wanted to get a SFF case because I like having desk room but the more I looked at different companies and builds I found myself falling in love with the RGB trend and decided on the Corsair - Crystal 570X RGB Mirror Black ATX Mid Tower Case. The selected case is mirror black which looks very sexy in the light and when the lights are off even sexier as the insides light up and take advantage of the two-way mirror. The case is an upgraded version of the Corsair - Crystal 570X RGB Case. It includes a PSU shroud, access to the PSU from a top rubber covered cutout on the shroud for easier access to your motherboard headers, front I/O USB 3.1 type C, and RGB Corsair logos. The fans it comes with are Corsair SP120’s so I replaced them with LL120 RGB’s and added a Commander Pro for complete software control of the RGB fan lights and I’m considering adding some LED strips in the future. By adding the Commander Pro, it disables the included hardware buttons up top for light control, but I didn’t find that a negative as I prefer software controls over my lights any day. The Corsair forum was a life saver when it came to connecting fans to the RGB hubs and Command Pro so make sure you check there if you run into any trouble. Cable management works very well with the back-shroud cover, but it would have been nice to see more zip tie connector points, especially in the front of the case as the Commander Pro comes with 4 thermal wires and I had a hard time finding good places to mount them to. I’m also still waiting on my 8TB drive so there are loose cords in the 2nd HDD spot which will be cleaned up when it is installed. Airflow in this case is amazing and helps keep everything running cool, although I am still debating moving the radiator to the front and making the top fans intake for more positive pressure to cut down the dust, but I will give the setup I have a try and see how bad it is. The only thing I don’t like about this case is it only has room for 2 3.5 HDD in the back but I knew this before I bought it. I wanted to add a third for my PLEX library but would have to put it in the front of the PC next to the PSU shroud on the floor of the case and I’m not sure I want one there.

This case is a work of art!

This case is a work of art! Will buy again, highly recommend. - If you buy this, you better take your time with cable management to truly make this shine. Use RGB fans. - Con: The included RGB fans, though appreciated, don't have much variance in colors/flashing. - Solution: I bought/installed NZXT RBG fans: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N4G5ILV/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_33 & https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NALACG9/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_34 - Motherboard: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NBHXSP6/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_42 - RAM: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_36 - CPU Cooler: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XX8Q1CL/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_46 - Was forced to buy this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01IFGFTJ2/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_45 - Getting the two apps which control all of the colors took a bit to get up & running correctly, but once set up, are amazing! I alternate between all green & rainbow :p

Great case with only a couple minor drawbacks

Overall I really like this case. It is has a beautiful aesthetic to it. It is well designed and all the tolerances are great. Nothing is misaligned when installing fans, motherboard, PSU, etc all the screws line up perfect. Materials feel great, the tempered glass is gorgeous. The metal is durable yet not too heavy, it is also perfectly powder coated no sign of raw metal anywhere. Cable management works pretty well but I do have some gripes. My main issues with the case is first of all why does it not come with the PSU shroud cover. I had to go to Corsair's website and order it for $14 ($4+$10 shipping). Come on Corsair this $4 part should be included with the case. Next is cable management. The back of the case is fully exposed with tempered glass so you can't hide your mess on the back like most cases. This can be a positive if you can get it looking perfect back there to show off your cable management skills. The problem is the channel that they give you to work with is too small to fit all the cables especially once you start adding stuff like case fans, fan controllers, and most of all individually sleeved power cables. The other thing is I wish the back glass was tinted a little darker to hide the cables more. Some people may not mind this if they are able to get their cables perfect with a thousand zip ties but for the normal person I would rather it just be tinted more so I don't have to worry about how it looks as much. Especially since I can't fit all my cables in the runner space. Edit: After 2 hours of intense cable management I was barely able to squeeze everything into the runner. And I mean barely. This took a lot of work and creativity with the cable runs. Now I am fine with the glass because I spent so much time working on my cables I want to show it off! Another positive is it comes with RGB fans. As well as a controls integrated into the case. This is pretty cool. Unfortunately since I decided to upgrade my fans to the LL120 series and use a Commander Pro to control them with software I cannot use the case buttons. For someone who just wants a basic RGB setup though the fans and controls it come with should be sufficient. Lastly, there is only 2 USB ports on the front. Only 2...and no 3.1 or front side USB-C. Not a deal breaker for me but for others it might be. This is 2018 it would have been nice to have a few extra front USB ports. My Antec case from 6 years ago has 2 USB ports on the front just like this does. In conclusion I definitely still recommend this case for someone who is looking for a nice tempered glass case to showoff their RGB fans and what not. I would give it like a 4.5 score but I rounded it up to 5.
