The Ultimate mATX Case? Corsair 280X Review

Ever since we saw it at Computex, we knew the Corsair Crystal Series 280X needed to be reviewed. it is minimalist, looks great and has an interesting dual chamber design. But is this matx gaming case any good!

[@PaulAllenPiano]

I love the dual-chamber cases. It makes cable management so much easier, and the look is great for these "Cube" style cases. Would love to see more manufacturers make cases like this!

[@alexsegers5175]

Damn, came to watch a video about a PC case. Just sitting in my lazy seat. Thanks for the health advice. more people should do that. Got me a going to gym. Keep it up guys

[@Psittac20]

Have to say thank you for that "ad spot" I'm working on improving my general well being and that don't change much mentality reaffirms that I'm doing it right. Also a few of the thing's mentioned are habit's that I've accidentally adopted. Thanks for the encouragement.

[@Dozer4200]

You really are the case review king, only rivaled by GN. You get in-depth without a lot of filler, which I love. That combined with your insane production quality, simply makes some brilliant videos. On another note, I just received my PC-O11 Dynamic, which I loved from the instant I saw it, but your video on it made me just love it even more. I look forward to building my system into it!

[@HardwareCanucks]

Enjoy :) -D.

[@Dozer4200]

Thank you! I've been sporting the PC-D8000 for the last couple of years, which is HUGE (holds 20x3.5" and 6x5.25"), but it's time to get something smaller, which is more LAN friendly. The big one isn't going into retirement though, it'll be converted to a huge ass NAS server at some point. I did some cable management in it a couple of months back, which is an almost impossible task in this, but I'm kinda happy about it. All of this hardware is going into the Dynamic.

[@TalesOfWar]

Case reviews are what made this channel. It's how I first found them back in the day (when there was an actual Canuck narrating. Sorry, I forget his name!). They were straight to the point and well produced and that's only gotten better and better as time has gone on. Dimitri and Eber took things to a whole other level too. It gets better and better!

[@wroughtmetals]

Man I wanted the dynamic so much but its all sold out and backordered so I went with this and ITX board, the same ASUS Z370-I he reviewed a bit ago. So its sorta a mini dynmaic lol. Also it seems I can modify this case a bit to extend the top glass with some spacers. And same with the bottom feet maybe? So I can have bottom intake fans.

[@limcheehean]

GN's reviews are more detailed but can be boring when you are just watching for entertainment.

[@seb2750]

Starlord is looking good.

[@doodoodonuts]

They really need to make more good MATX motherboards rather than only focus on ATX

[@Silent_Shadow]

In 15 years I've built 5 systems for myself and every single one was M-ATX. ATX would just be extra cost I wouldn't benefit from at all.

[@kasper_429]

I don't understand the love affair with tempered glass. Sure, it's fine for the "display" side of the case to show off hardware. What I don't understand is/are cases that have it on the front and top where fans are? (Some cases even have it on the back side panel where all the cables are supposed to be hiding, and I don't get that at all unless you are a cable management god and can make that area look presentable lol). It blocks airflow, as clearly shown in this video, and just looks stupid in those locations IMO. Anywhere a fan is mounted should have mesh and not a solid piece of glass. Maybe I'm just old school.

[@Lead_Foot]

Kyle White they even removed the 92mm fan mounts on the rear that were on the previous carbide AIR version of this case.

[@TalesOfWar]

Same, it's impractical with how they implement it. I've never been a fan of side windows anyway so this trend is extra annoying all around for me. It's almost as annoying as the RGB ALL THE THINGS trend too. Combine the two and you have a much harder time of finding cases that are well engineered internally with all the modern stuff we've come to expect if you're not a fan of such things but also want something current.

[@DoomWalker42]

Sadly tempered glass has become a new industry standard. People have forgotten that airflow and silence are more important instead aesthetics hence the separation from cases side panels that have mesh filters and so on.

[@TimHaunFishing]

Just be a cable management god.

[@TalesOfWar]

Cable management isn't a problem. I just think side windows look tacky as shit. I'm not a fan of the "gamer" aesthetic and prefer something simple that does its job well and gets out of the way both physically and visually. The important stuff is happening on screen, not competing for attention with all the fucking RGB bullshit light show going on inside the case. The same is true of things like mice and keyboards too. It's hard to find good quality ones that also don't have RGB crap all over them or the "gamer" look again. I turn all that crap off. I have a Corsair K70 Lux RGB and only use a single solid colour for all keys. White. With a red escape key. The only reason I got this was because it was the least tacky looking good quality mechanical "gaming" keyboard that's actually solidly built. Finding such a keyboard without all the RGB guff is pretty hard if not impossible. It's like trying to find a modern good quality well built TV that doesn't have "Smart" TV stuff built in, that sucks major ass no matter who makes it and how much the set costs and it'll never get updates beyond a year or so. I just want something with a great panel, well built with a bunch of HDMI inputs. I'll add the smart functionality myself.

[@TheBigFatTater]

Great message, great video, great work. Requested this a while back and never thought I'd see it. You do the best case reviews on KZbin!

[@Vortex1988]

I wish case manufacturers would learn from Silverstone. The SG09 and SG10 are still the smallest micro atx cases on the market, can fit a Noctua NH-D15 or 120mm aio, and have the best cooling performance for something that size. Not to mention those cases were released at least 5 years ago. All I ever see from other case manufacturers are larger and larger matx and mini itx cases with less airflow. They seem to have no recollection of how to use space efficiently anymore.

[@volodymyrm.3848]

Really appreciate the new dual-chamber layout. It's hard to tell if this becomes a trend, but putting the psu on the back of case seems to open some really nice possibilities for the airflow in the main chamber and it's unfortunate, that it is yet some steps away from being really good. It comes to personal prefenrence, but to me it seems like fitting in your interior something, that resembles a cube could be easier, then traditional slim cases with 40-50cm height. Regarding the case, it seems like we are not there yet: both bottom and front intake are not being utilized properly and the considering its price the case looses part of its attractiveness. Let's hope, that this case will be just an intermediate step on the way to good dual-chamber designs. And, as always, that you for the best case reviews on youtube!

[@ryanfitzgerald7647]

Azalor Tv the Lian Li 011 Dynamic nailed it I think.

[@TheMetaldudeX]

I’m really liking this layout too. Just makes more sense. I just wish there were more options.

[@HawkFest]

It all depends of one's context : having more height than width has a lesser footprint on the working surface or whatever stand (it doesn't require a large area even though it can have more depth if one needs a casing for accommodating many drives)

[@chasedown26]

Dual chambered cases are awesome! I would love for HardwareCanucks to do more dual chambered reviews. Like the Anidees Crystal Cube, Anidees AI7, or even the Rosewill Cullinan PX! I havent seen any reviews on these cases from my top 5 youtubers and HardwareCanucks are my favorite Case Reviewers!

[@Benja-ul4ms]

i've actually been thinking about making a mATX buil just because of this case. It's so stunning!

[@masonpobst]

I bought this case bc not only do I love the aesthetics, but also I couldn't find any other micro ATX cases with the same number of drive bays since I use 2 SSDs and 2 HDDs

[@hanyoukimura]

I think it looks great. Visually interesting without being over styled. the dual chamber design is cool, and let's you fit a lot of drives in a small case.

[@WaffleCake]

5:40 It's because the front panel and dust filter make it harder for air to come in through the front, but because there is still the air pressure from the fans, air comes in through the path of least resistance, in this *case*, the bottom ventilation - directly supplying fresh air to the graphics card.

[@StephenRiss]

Love the idea of this case, but it needs a exhaust fan out the back. The top and front glass need tube mesh to allow for better airflow in a smaller form factor and the side panel needs to be on their hinge system with magnetic front so as to not have to screw anything on or off. Corsair you do that and I'd buy this case in a heart beat.

[@PawelJackowski]

Normally I hate sponsor messages... Especially since I'm KZbin Premium member but this one was the least annoying I've ever seen. I would even risk saying "interesting one". Great job!

[@forcadofernando9041]

Thanks for paying idiot.

[@hexxoid9263]

The GPU is cooler with the stock configuration because it allows for negative pressure, which brings in cool air from the holes in the PCI brackets straight into the GPU. Or at least thats my theory.

[@barnstormer322]

I enjoyed the sponsor spot at the start of this video. It's nice to see you guys getting money *and* not having to throw some company's products in our face, as fun as the normal ones are too :)

[@DanielPerez-pb5dw]

Hey Dimitry I was considering purchasing this and stumbled upon a Rosewill Cullinan Px. The two cases are identical with a few slight differences. The Rosewill case has support for ATX motherboards, no glass top, no front filter, only one hard drive cage, rubber isn’t built into the glass it’s on the stand offs which fall off easily. It has less rubber grommets for cable management. Overall I’m pretty happy with it. Not a perfect case but there aren’t too many cases that are perfect.

[@dreamfighters2742]

You know what, instead of being motivated to do more videos and being creative. You motivated me to be more healthy

[@BorisGameX]

Can you fit here a FULL ATX MOBO? Yes, I know that this is a mid tower case, but it has 5 cm more hight than the FULL ATX mobo. So, it fits for sure, but how it looks after =)

[@mileni7]

I would like to know that as well.

[@martinsvideos7556]

No, ATX dont fit and it makes no sense.

[@mrkaaya6521]

If you want to put atx buy a 680x

[@ScytheNoire]

Corsair got a bit better, but still making some dumb design decisions. I really like the dual chamber cases like this. Hope we seem more companies make these, especially Phanteks (favorite case maker), including larger models.

[@totallynottrademarked5279]

You can tell the lead designs heart is not in it anymore over there. They used to innovate. Now they just make pretty but less functional cases.

[@peterscott2662]

Air 240 was better because it could breathe. I am building mATX next, but Define Mini C is my choice so far. Volume is very similar between Define Mini C and the 240 Air/280x

[@eliassjoborg3591]

Peter Scott im planning a atx build and the mechify c is obiusly my only choise, it's cheap and very high quality. I would defenatly go for the mechafy c mini in your case.

[@peterscott2662]

I prefer the regular Define models over the Meshify. Define is best of both world front panel on it's a silent case, Front panel off it cools better than Meshify. Define front filter is much easier to clean, and I am lazy. Very subjective, but I prefer the looks of the Define. So no contest for me, I prefer the Define series over the Meshify series.

[@eliassjoborg3591]

Peter Scott ok, u wanna fight?!

[@eliassjoborg3591]

Peter Scott JK, u have a point, but the overall color theme is in my opinion really bad, the brushed finnish and blue light in the middle "crack" is really not my thing...

[@peterscott2662]

The first thing I do with any of my PC's is disable the LEDs, I even put black tape over the LED of my Blu Ray Drive. I like the define, because it is a simple understated black monolith.

[@kevinz4952]

When the upper and front glass are installed, the airflow through these two directions is reduced, which causes more airflow to be drawn in by the graphics card through the lower air intake.

[@Chris-ly8wt]

I have this case and it was a slight upgrade from my previous Corsair Air 240 that was needed when I upgraded my graphics card that happened to be too wide for the 240 case. I agree with your plus and negative points about this case with the side glass panel being one of the biggest gripes followed by the other glass panels lack of clearance. For anyone running high OC's and a system that produces a lot of heat, I wouldn't recommend this case. I removed the top dust screen and added additional 120mm fans to help with the thermal issues that plague this case design. Great review and awesome channel. Thanks!

[@OGJakob]

About the GPU temp issue : the fans will always apply the same pressure inside the case whichever the situation of the front panel is. So if the case has the same negative pressure inside, and the air flow is more blocked from the front then the air is more likely to come from the bottom of the case too. And since the GPU is in the bottom of the case it benefits the added volume of fresh air coming from below.

[@storybookbus0314]

The airflow may be better with the front on because it basically channels the air, kind of like a rifle on a sniper; it just makes it more accurate and direct, rather than coming from all over the place

[@johnwood9293]

Thank you for reviewing this case. Even though it is marketed as mAtx, looking at the layout, it seems it would be better suited as an itx use case. Especially if one is doing a custom loop.

[@lefthandright01]

I am glad to see the 240 Air has been upgraded to the 280 non Air. The market has begun running dry on non Airflow options this year.

[@wpi6705]

Finally i watched all reviews for this case

[@wpi6705]

And its aircooled cant get better,in 90% of the reviews its watercooled.

[@adamschultz7127]

What an awesome intro. Good to know there's someone out here who cares about our health.

[@Mattkat0410]

The grommets are covered yes, but i just completed a build with this case and you can still utilize the top middle grommet, have all of my fan cables running through it and over the top of the motherboard. Just requires finesse

[@giggyolly]

I really appreciate you guys being critical here, I thought this was the perfect case, but now I have some things to think about for my next upgrade!

[@sammy-jeffalbert7198]

Surprisingly liked the ad. Seemed very genuine

[@aaroncrittenden8775]

I've never subscribed off a sponsored message excellent really resonated with me!

[@spektrumB]

Just finish moving all the components to this new case. When Threadripper 2 launches in a few weeks, a 2950X and Asrock X399M mobo will find a place in it.

[@marlowencna]

I'm doing dual chamber since 17. Happy w it :)

[@peterjansen4826]

Cucumber water? I haven't heard of it, I will check it out. It is cool that you have a non commercial sponsoring for a healthy lifestyle change.

[@bahazbz]

Extra intake when the front panels and top dust are removed invokes positive pressure inside the case, this might make it hard for the graphics card to intake from the bottom of the case since it has to fight all the air trying to escape via the bottom. Putting the restrictions on the front intake promotes a more neutral pressure situation, allowing the GPU to intake without as much resistance.

[@Lenskha]

The use of the term compact can be misleading because people would think this form factor can fit more stuff for a lower volume. But the truth is that this case is a whole 40 Liters, 33% bigger than a Thermaltake H18 or 63% bigger than a In win 301.

[@akiraic]

this would literally be the BEST mATX case in the world if there was another option other than glass in front. You can fit literally everything in there in any configuration you want.

[@RacATheFurious]

I would say that GPU temps are lower, because if front panel chokes intake fans, more air is coming through bottom of the case, right into gpu cooler.

[@tobiasthie8838]

I got this case last year and I love it. Only major downfalls are the fiddly PCI Mounting Screw Bracket from the outside and the USB 3.0 Front Panel Adapter (but this is not entirely the cases fault). Also the front side is not easy to remove, this is annoying when you need to clean the front dust filter. Everything else is great about it

[@rushy4321]

Heads up that the top plastic cover you can put lighting controls and other accessories in that spot and hide them with the cover :)

[@BamaNukaDaddy]

Am I the only person that lays the PC down before putting on the glass case???????

[@syko846]

Probably, I never do lol it's actually quite secure once placed into the mounts

[@jayros]

The most normal and common thing, right? I still don’t understand why so many people complain about the crystal not being hold by anything so its very hard to place, etc.

[@tarfeef_4268]

Would love if they had: Raised the bottom just a bit Given an option for a mesh front Ability to remove pegs on the top glass panel (not sure if you can already, they stick out when you take the glass off, which I would) If they did that, I would love to do a watercooled ITX build since you could fit intake fans at the bottom, rads at the top and front, and a GPU all in one package. With enough room for decent storage in the back

[@ofacefan]

i am running an air 240 and love it, sure this visually is much more appealing but the RGB still shines through the old design that runs much cooler..

[@osidiousdk4112]

I do like dust filters on the top of PC cases, it helps to reduce the amount of dust that falls into your computer when it is not running, good job Corsair!

[@TheSjuris]

How much dust is going to fall through glass?

[@phillipbrown3852]

@@TheSjuris 😂

[@TheLunarFX]

Love my air240 right now, the offset LED fans as a front display looks really nice, like an offset racing stripe. Now I'm gonna buy this for the glass.

[@kolllar2391]

I think this case is better with an itx board because of the grommets and the floor clearance for rads+fans

[@ninjathehuskey4373]

Good to see your taking care of yourself ! Stay healthy brother :)

[@lendldumadag]

mAtx is love. Just that sweet spot for being compact plus expandability.

[@aarondb91]

Love the positive advice at the start

[@jish8681]

This is IMO the most beautiful computer case on the planet.

[@ShardCollector]

Corsair should do a Carbide series with this chassis! The carbide 240 was a bit too small and the 540 too big. This 280 could be perfect with better airflow than the glass panels are offering.

[@BromTeque]

The top dust pannel is to prevent dust from falling into the PC when it’s off OR If you want to use top as input.

[@karim969]

i guess the pressure difference caused by the dust filter drops the temp of the incoming air, this is how greenhouses are cooled.

[@wupasscat]

yay thanks for doing a review on this case!

[@shmellysmurphy420]

Newegg just had a sale for this case. I got the no rgb for $75! My first micro atx build. I'm going for a no rgb/minimal rgb look, otherwise I would've gotten the rgb version for $140.

[@dweh_3016]

I have this case and i need to say that youre wrong that you cant install fans at the bottom. I have 2x 120mm fans at the bottom with an mATX motherboard, you just need to plug in the cables before you install them and then youre ok

[@Tuktanuk]

I just built a system in the 280X RGB case. M-ATX MoBo with 120mm Fans on the bottom. All good. Fits the EVGA RTX2080TI FTW# GPU init quite well. 240mm AIO mounted up top and 2 1200mm Fans in the front. MUCH cooler than the H200i case by miles!

[@Bamfhammer]

GPU is likely cooler with the stock configuration because the choking of air coming in the front means the exhaust fans have to pull more air in from the bottom, taking that right by the GPU.

[@nocturnal101ravenous6]

The top fan filter is for Positive Pressure setups, I had issues with dust in a 350D(all the seems), so I picked up the Decimflex filter set and did 2 120mm in front and top set as Inlet with the back fan as exhaust, dust problem gone and the GPU ran cooler. This case would be perfect for a mini workstation on the X platform.

[@patrickptmonk8673]

[@barfman7767]

Supposed to be released by August/September... we shall see.

[@sturmbrunox4403]

I love the 2 chamber design and the complete glass thing I think it would be awesome if the Corsiar logo in the front would be RGB too.

[@yurimodin7333]

as a certified cube case addict (and mATX lover) I could not pass this one up.....the case was REALLY easy to build in. The only real complaint I have with it is no pegs for the side panel and the little swingout door they used for holding the PCI cards in was a PITA to get shut. FYI corsair included every screw you could have wanted with this case....literally six sets of fan screws, a set of hex head screws for the TG, long screws to mount a radiator with, hard drive screws.

[@Housestationlive]

i know it's a niche, but an improved version after 4 years is too much asked ?

I forget which video it was, but I remember him complaining about another case NOT having a dust filter for the top fans. Now he's ragging it for it's inclusion. personally I like having it to keep dust out when the system is off.

I call this case as "The Verge" case.

im gonna jimmy rig something to get that glass higher on the top, see what i can find at the hardware store, maybe some rubber washers or something.

hi chris pratt lol

[@reaktorleak89]

Thanks for this review, I built a GPU rendering computer based off this review, and it only has a 10% dip in performance compared to my full tower setup. But it takes half the space and space is super limited at my office.

[@Honest-joe]

Can you do some vids on full ATX cube cases? There don't seem to be many on the market which is a shame because I really like them

[@SleepyWolvy]

So it seems like this case, if being used is more for aesthetics and really lacks airflow? I thought it was best of both worlds, but now it seems that it's better suited for water cooling radiators and not air cooling. That's too bad, it looks incredible

[@Anxiou5Panda]

mATX cases like this is great but I think it would also be nice if they make an ATX version of this one. We share the same sentiments when it comes to the non-existing fan slot at the back and the clearance issue of the bottom part of the case.

[@spectre___i]

I'm hoping they're doing a ATX/e-ATX sized version, my favourite case is the Air 540 I've owned 3 now haha. Wouldn't mind a bigger one of these!

[@0marble8]

Id say most people place their pcs on their tables, and obviously if you dont have a very large table horizontal space is way more important than vertical

[@ZensorGuy]

My guess is the top dust filter is to avoid dust from getting inside while the PC is turned off.

[@Squinoogle]

It's a shame that my favourite feature of the Air 240 didn't carry over: being able to mount it on its side. I have strict space constraints governing where I can have my PC: 34cm wide, 45cm tall & 40cm deep. And because it sits on my left a traditional tower with a left side window is a waste. I've been using a Corsair 250D for the last 4 years and a few months back started looking at replacing it (it's a great little case if you want to use an H100i and a GPU with a blower - which I don't anymore). I looked at the Air 240 but ultimately ended up getting a Thermaltake Core V21 as it just ticked more boxes for me. Put me down as +1 for future mATX and ITX case coverage!

Please review Corsair 680x case. Because some people said the 680x is bad in terms of airflow

I'm 48 & I've hit the 'Middle Age Spead' So I've cut out sugar in my life. Plan for the future man.
