Test: Einzeltest: Corsair Obsidian 650D Mid-Tower Case
Zitat: If you have ever played around with the Corsair Obsidian 650D you will understand why we say that it is definitely in the top five best cases on the market today. Feature-wise this case offers everything one would like in a case. Cable management, superb ventilation and tool-less operation is only a small portion of what this great case has to offer. Not being as tall as the original 800D, the 650D still offers the end user a lot of room to do whatever they feel is for them. There is plenty of bays for optical drives or fan controllers, internally there is enough for several drives for those that need them. If you are into higher forms of cooling, Corsair made sure to provide plenty of space for a water-cooling loop or two. Honestly, I think the case is screaming to be outfitted with a custom loop as there is room at the top of the case as well as the front (with one or both HDD cages removed) for the radiators. A pump can be easily mounted in the bottom of the chassis. If you like to call yourself a gamer and like to built your system accordingly, well there is plenty of room to house up to three very long graphic cards as well. Whether you fancy running with SLI or Crossfire in a triple card setup, both will be of no concern with this case, all thanks to the additional eighth expansion slot in the rear. There are many little things that make this case what it is and we could go on for days talking about them all. The large fans, 3-speed fan controller, I/O ports with USB3 and the roomy space behind the motherboard tray all add up to one great case. The Obsidian 650D retails for about $199 making it a pricey case to own; is it worth it? We think so due to all the features it offered. It currently has 5/5 Eggs on NewEgg, and should that not convince you then the 5/5 Eggs on the 800D with 294 reviews should, but if not still then maybe it´s $10 MIR (good till 5/31/2011) can be it´s saving grace.
