First Impressions: Corsair Crystal 460X RGB (Livestream)

[@countryhomepups]

Thanks for the video. I bought this case new at a junk store for $50 bucks. I added 3 more RGB Corsair fans up top, and a Corsair H80i radiator as exhaust. Your video saved me a lot of time. I really like this case.

[@stoggydyle.8115]

Wish I'd seen this before I built in my own 460x rgb haha, great stream guys, very well put together =].

[@2102Chris]

Nice Reviewthx for the time and effort. I will definately get this case. Its gorgeous

[@nelsonthekinger]

Hi Guys Very good video! it Helped me a lot mounting my build which also uses a 460x. The tip for moving the hdd rack and the cpu power cable at the top were the best tips for me. The Q connector was also good tip but I was able to connect without use it. Just as said in this video corsair should send a y spliter for the fans, I was lucky to have 4 inputs for 4-pin fans and used 3 of them to connect the 3-pin fans. For the ones that like the case but think that cable management is bad, don't get discourage. Cable Management is possible and with style, you just have to think at every step and it's quite a interesting challenge to put everything pretty. but in the end you will feel quite proud. As another detail I like the thumb screws for the glass, it's nice because if you had to use a screwdriver you could scratch the glass by accident. Other than that I that, the case has a very good size and I just want to abuse it! Cheers

[@miked3168]

nelsonthekinger I'm having a hard time with my fans, they power up but they don't spin. What splitter are you talking about?. I have a total of 6 fans in there. None of them spin at all, but just light up.

[@MisterLiBRiUMz]

You sure you have enough power?

[@mitgiannis]

I don't know how to connect the 3 case's fans to my asus x-370 pro. It's my first buld. Anyone can explain me? this is the manual of my mb: dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/PRIME_X370-PRO/E12344_PRIME_X370-PRO_web_only_20170712.pdf?_ga=2.236232385.1394054719.1502363441-264268187.1502363441

[@Twisted_Individual]

Hi, so year passed since your post, fo you still advice it? Thinking of buying it.

[@100nirosta]

Hallo. Eine Frage. Kann Man die Schnelligkeit der Lüfter einstellen bei diesem Gehäuse? Oder muss Man da für eine extra Steuerung kaufen? Wenn ich von Corsair einen 360mm Radiator kaufe, bekomme ich den auch mit den Schläuchen und Gewinde für CPU, oder muss Man die separat kaufen?

[@Rasmus230100]

where did you plug the fans in

[@infamousmaze6870]

This build video was crazy helpful for me making up my mind. Still on the fence between this and the s340 Elite. This is a stunning case, but that cable management and the limitations of the shroud have got me going Ehhhhh, plus I didn't realize how tinted the glass would be. I need to double check on that, because I want a PC where I can always see my components clearly in a well lit room. Subbed.

[@ASLUHLUHC3]

This thing's a beauty

[@MandeepSingh-lf8jq]

Can you link me to the splitter

[@Botzz28]

I want to add a seagate hard drive. Do you have to put in in the drive cage or can I jus plug it in and jus stick it anywhere it fits ? I don’t have much room left

[@DevGamingSA]

take a shot everytime barry says "yep" your guaranteed to be drunk in the firsts 5 min of this video XD

[@barrymclamb8304]

yep

[@khmergodhobbies]

two yeahs within 10 seconds of vid. already wasted

[@Lone_Crusader]

Question: Do the HDD trays have four mounting holes on the bottom of each tray to secure a SSD in? Also is the triple SSD rack removable so that I could either Velcro or adhesive pads to that spot a Corsair Commander Pro so I can control fans, fan leds and lighting leds? Also it seems that Corsair kind of skimped out on the available lower grommet holes to route HD audio cable and any other header related cables that goes to the bottom headers. I might have to dremel out a couple of small cutouts to route motherboard cables through that attach to the bottom of the motherboard.

[@koreywillis5733]

you CAN run the hd audio through the hole above the psu fairly easy

[@dimitri.dittrich]

I bought a cabinet like this. I want to buy 3 more coolers to put on top and back. Can you kindly tell me which model I should buy to be compatible with the controller that comes with the enclosure?

[@e1ghteyes448]

Gonna get this for my first build ever

[@sanidhyasharda4797]

RΛZΞR me too

[@SodaRMT]

RΛZΞR same i was almost finished it

[@ThisOLmaan]

PCPartPicker:: Where or how did you manage to close the back panel having that Thick 24 Pin Power Cable from Corsair??? cuz that puppy is thick and now know why people have major problems cable managing... From the Corsair 460x RGB Case, which is a really nice case, and another thing why the hell did Corsair decided to :NOT" add Henges on the bottom of the case to hold the glass cover it is so annoying, tempted to having henges wield it on the bottom of case to hold to Glass in place like it ought to have...

[@Nick_Stf]

The non RGB version allows you to install Corsair HD or the new Corsair LL, without having to remove the SP fans. Now if someone likes the SP fans, should go with the RGB version

[@Ktan211]

Hi Guys, could not see it clearly in the video but what type of fan splitter / hub did you use to get the 3 fans running?

[@omtatsatification]

Hello. Does one get a USB 3 to USB 2 adaptor for the front panel IO connector?

[@Goryglory0209]

New to your channel. Loved it. Subbed.. I got a NZXT S340 Elite and then saw this vid.. I would say that case got a bit more room but the Front Fans and RGB looks amazing on Corsair

[@davitsk1]

About the case fans. Do they need to be connected to the controller(which is already connected to MB) or also controller + motherboard again for every fan? My motherboard only has 3 case fans connectors. Hope the question makes sense, even if it is a bit confusing.

[@TheFktareen]

David which motherboard do you have

[@beaujames8267]

hey guys I have a question I built my first computer in this case and idk if I hooked it up wrong or what but my rgb sp120 fans loose the lighting profile I set and go back to that flashing multi color everytime I turn off the computer and turn it back on is this normal or did I miss a cable or some sort constant wire to keep the profile or maybe plug the power into the wrong plug from psu

[@Duckie1333]

I have a NZXT Kraken X52 and a ASRock Z270 Gaming K6 mob. Will the radiator top mount on this case?

[@mrlemonboy1485]

Can you remove the big white IO cover on the motherboard?

[@jonathanhiel9867]

hi can i ask you a question if i search for the case 460x its all glass you have the other side panel black where the cables are manged is it an addional part for order if i want that ?

[@Grega94]

Question here, so I just bought corsairs 460x case, and so if i want to control 3-pin stock fans (3x RGB SP120, they come with the case), I have to buy corsairs commander? these fans are too loud for idling.. HALP! im kinda worried that if i spend extra money i wont be able to control fan speeds because of those 3 pins that come with the stock fans. Thank you!

[@sanidhyasharda4797]

i was legit convinced that these two were twins one with a beard one without,until they said they aren't even related XD

[@xdreampcs8554]

This video is helping me immensely right now. I noticed you guys used a fan splitter for the RGB fans. Did you run it off a motherboard header? I have the Gigabyte Z270X Ultra gaming mobo with 3 SP120 Corsair rgbs in the front. Will this be safe for this particular motherboard?

[@omtatsatification]

Great video but the lighting was bad for views inside the black case. Something to think about

[@MiguelCastro-ow5ho]

how to i get the rgb fans to light up?

[@shamessaimun6141]

Where does the SATA Power go? Help please. And also my casing fan isn’t lighting up .. help please

[@noah5183]

Shames Saimun did you figure I out because my fans aren’t lighting up either my mobo and gpu are tho

[@notkilometres]

Does this case come in an option without those fans? I'd imagine those fans would bump the price of the case up a whole tonne. 3 of those fans in New Zealand costs 120NZD lol

[@chowacow]

Miles Potton There 2 versions of the 460x. The one here is the 460x RGB, while there is another 460x non RGB that comes with 1 140mm Red LED fan, and 1 120mm regular fan. Here in the State, price difference is about $20-40 I believe

[@Bswaggy2]

i have this case coming in the mail. This is my first PC build, not gonna lie all the wiring is scaring me lol. I bought the samsung 500gb ssd and a seagate 3tb HDD. Do those come with the cables needed?

[@GoontherGaming]

How many fan splitters do I need for this case if I am planning on getting another three SP120 fans?

[@SodaRMT]

Goonther depends what mother broad you get

[@davitsk1]

Hey! Whad did you decide on, i am thinking the same thing. My motherboard only has 3 case fans output.

[@fantasynebulous1950]

Awesome build

[@larrywhite9552]

great vidio guys I would like you guys to use the Fractal Define C

[@seanbulleri]

Just wondering... the motherboard on the parts list looks white but in the video it looks grey. Just wondering since I was thinking about getting this same motherboard.

[@Ojpagulayan]

Sean Bulleri I have the same board and it's white

[@seanbulleri]

ok thanks I figured it out

[@BakvSFE]

Does this case support Corsair RGB ram if I put 240 mm radiator on the top?

[@squeezsway]

did it work?

[@martinkent_]

How do you control the fans? Is there a way to do it with software?

[@Gavrev]

Fan control will happen via the PWM header on your mainboard. If you are asking in terms of colour control, that happens via the three button front panel, or additional three button controller located behind the side panel. The included fans aren't strictly RGB in terms of the whole 16.5 million gamut, but rather I believe there is a base rainbow selection of white, violet, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. By that association I don't know how compatible the controls would be with fans from other companies or any subsequent fans released from Corsair, such as the new dual light loop - they would probably have to be fitted independently and controlled via installed software. However you may feel about that as a possible limitation, it's probably also fair to say that on the whole the SP120 fans aren't as expensive compared to the dual light loop.

[@RonBerglund]

i like the surface to the right, windows is bae

[@nelsondanieleidtsiqueira9238]

This case there is fan speed control or just lights control?

[@martinarscott3524]

only lighting control, the 'speed' button just changes the speed that the lighting effect changes not the actual fan speed

[@forrestgump5574]

yeh i m going to buy that case

[@TheProsirius]

thanks for that good review. Very nice details. Thank you very much

[@manuelmedels2624]

Very helpful. Thank you

[@fenderoid1111]

Didn't know that corsair had added mirror image effect ;)

[@09XB12SS]

You have to have low profile ram to install a 240mm radiator.

[@blazebullet5184]

this case is almost perfect. But I prefer the Thermaltake Core x31.

[@saikrishankumar]

Nice video guys

[@korihines12]

Can i control the color of the fans if I have a RGB header on my board?

[@Graun]

NO!

[@SteO23]

Would the Cosair H100i v2 fit in the top fan location? Just bought the case but I've read mixed reviews on whether or not it fits. Thanks.

[@hadrienstener1766]

Stephen Oulton I was asking myself this question and after some research the answer is no if you don't have low profile ram

[@Aquantia-xu4qw]

3x cables are wrong

[@nitrousoxide4970]

What the fuck? Why did that dude pop up in the corner at 31:11? You gave me a heart attack

[@danimoosakhan]

this case doesn't come with exaust?? wtf

[@jeneralgod]

Danial khan just replace the fan on the bottom and put it as an exhaust

[@10nerd1]

31:14

[@iVideo1011]

31:12 what the fuck

[@omtatsatification]

Really bad with this case is that the motherboard spacers are fixed to the motherboard. They cannot be removed! Too bad when one breaks . Have to buy the whole case again! Dumb. And also no USB 3 to USB 2 adaptor. And this glass panel door with silly screws. Why cant they have magnets here!

[@pavannaiktherandipora9902]

actually i was considering buy this ..should i ,or is it not worth it ?

[@omtatsatification]

a nightmare for cable management!!

[@ThisOLmaan]

just gonna have too ues the OL Noggin and get that cable managed, you will figure it out...your not a Ballon🎈 head🤔
