Why is EVERYONE Buying This Gaming Case? - Corsair 4000D Airflow

[@MrSeetz]

The 'inoffensive' looks were greatly understated. Part of the 4000D's appeal is that you don't need to hide it and it works with most home styles; the PC case equivalent of white shaker cabinets.

[@staa7731]

This just reminds me of technoblade... Rest in peace king 👑

[@lukeperryglover]

Yeah I upgraded from a Corsair Carbide Sec 06 a couple of weeks ago to the black Corsair 4000d airflow (wanted to for over a year).

[@lievre460]

This was the #1 thing I was looking for when buying a new case and why I choose the 4000D. Didn't care about RGB, all of the budget friendly low end cases look awful and have branding all over them. The 4000D is sleek and inoffensive and I don't feel ashamed to have it on display in my room. It doesn't scream "gamer." It just looks like a modern minimalist PC. Also the price. The regular 4000D was on sale at the time I bought it for like $70 because they had too much in stock compared to the Airflow version.

[@lukeperryglover]

@@lievre460 agreed

[@mamaharumi]

Most people like simplistic and clean design aesthetic. Not sure why so many companies marketed to gamers have to be so gaudy.

[@Matthew-vl8cd]

The 4000D is great for a few big reasons: 1. It's affordable without being cheap 2. Corsair is is a large, familiar company 3. There is A LOT of KZbin content readily available showing how well rounded the case is overall, along with building guides to help you along the way The vast majority of people buying this case are first-time builders (just like me) who especially appreciate the plentiful content and building guides.

[@DannoHung]

Does look nice. I'm gonna go back to full ATX for my next build. Do they have a version with bottom front IO instead of top front IO? I just dislike top front IO.

[@peters.7428]

My opinon on cases is that you should just buy the cheapest used one, for like 10$ or even less, and focus your money on components that actually do affect performance, or just take a box and use it as a case.

[@robertt9342]

@@peters.7428 . That’s pretty poor advice. The box is a bad idea except for testing and some cases could compromise compatibility. This being said, I do advocate for the cheapest case with reasonable build quality, all the features you want (looks), and compatibility with you components. I currently use a $19 (brand new at the time) Antec GX with a top mount AIO. I would also advocate for the purchase of used cases.

[@Djuntas]

Im actually looking into a new build (rip money) some time, and I was gonna buy this one too. Its really cheap in Denmark as well, and popular.

[@SpectraFGC]

I buy this case and the H510 Flow for most PCs i'm commissioned for, i know my way around it so it's really easy to talk end users through finding things in it.

[@flackenstien]

When I was upgrading my build and moving it into a new case, I did a ton of research on what case options there were. I looked painstakingly for weeks.. The 4000D just has all the features you could want. It's affordable. It's spacious. It has giant cable routing holes for hassle-free build assembly (this is my favorite part). Airflow, with an easy to access and clean dust filter. Great cable management routes that aren't restrictive. It has a good aesthetic that is stylish but not offensive (it matches my taste in industrial furniture), I have the black version. Easy to open and close back panels (could be better, but my last Phanteks case was so bad here). It's just so convenient in ways that aren't gimmicks. Now, if only they can put this quality into their newer mice..

[@bluspoid3936]

When I was getting ready to build my PC, I spent weeks researching what components I should buy. To my surprise, the case was the hardest decision. I wanted a case that was from a reputable brand, was easy to build in, and had excellent cooling. It took me so long to find a case that I liked. The first time I saw the Corsair 4000D airflow, I knew that was the case I was going to buy. I have had no complaints and I recommend this case to anyone building a new PC.

[@Luke357]

The case was the easiest choice for me. I just got a Meshify C with the solid steel panel and called it a day. No RGB nonsense over here.

[@starwarsftw5018]

The case was one of the first things i decided I wanted to get, 'cause for me everything was just perfect with the 4000D airflow, so it took me a while to find a motherboard with the front panel connectors needed - which ended up being the MSI Z690 Tomahawk, admittedly a bit overkill for a 12600KF but eh, it runs damn well

[@rodolfotsang4327]

I got 4000x :(

[@murcie7896]

The 4000D Airflow is an absolutely great case, I just wish I would've gone for the 5000D for future water cooling. The 4000D "can" have a full liquid cooling loop in it, but then it'll be packed to the edge, 5000D has more room for Reservoirs and tubing routing.

[@homeboi9794]

It's kinda sad how still, to this day, people complain that the Meshify C front filter is hard to access. All you have to do is slide out the bottom filter and push the single clip from the bottom to pop out the front filter. Fractal needs to put out a PSA to fix this misconception.

[@Hardly_Party]

i was more upset by the foam they chose to use for the front filter. i removed that from the metal frame just went raw until i made a filter. meshify2 looks like they learned from that mistake tho. still a great case nonetheless

[@philipmitchell7660]

Fractal are like the best player on your team who just hasn't been around as long as everyone else, despite being better

[@itsaUSBline]

It's really more that it's difficult to clean and deal with the foam in it. Sure, it's easy to pop the whole filter off, but actually getting the dust embedded in that foam out is a real chore. It does do a great job of keeping dust out of the case, but at what cost? All that said, Fractal is my favorite case maker.

[@EvilTurkeySlices]

The main problem I had with mine is that that front clip broke after years of having the case. I had to zip tie the mesh back one. Still love the case though.

[@markuskunath5815]

I’m personally not a fan of the mesh panel but I love the general look of the 4000 series cases. They have a clean rectangle shape with only a few accenting angles in the front panel to allow some airflow when you’re using solid front panels. I have the 4000x in my room and it somehow doesn’t really look out of place right next to my bookshelf

[@HazardCrossbones]

I feel like you missed the one MASSIVE issue with the case: Somehow they decided to have only one USB A port on the front panel, even though the motherboard header is always for two ports. Which is frankly stupid and really impractical for any real world usage. The UBS-C port is a nice touch, which partially saves it.

[@thetranya3589]

That is a complete deal breaker for me.

This way not only the AIO fans but also the case fans are cooling the AIO. 2 x 140mm exhaust fans (Noiseblocker B14-PS) at the top-side rear, while the included exhaust fan is mounted as lowly as possible (there is a bit of a range).

I "upgraded" from a NZXT H500 to the Corsair 4000D Airflow; both were pretty much the same price at the time of their respective purchase but the 4000D is just so much better.

Back when the S340 was first released I wanted to get it because of its looks and at the time I was 12, I built my first PC (using a good amount of money I had busted my ass for) in 2019 and got the H510 and since then I've put a 3070ti in it and my CPU cooler was a cheap liquid cooler from Deep Cool, Temps are horrible with my CPU idling at 60/70c and my GPU at 40c.

[@SoulSojourner]

I forgot to mention the ONE downside to that case that I didn't like. It DOES have slots for a vertical mount gpu but you'd have to be a fool to use it. There is no airflow in the tempered glass panel on that side, so your gpu fans would be trying to utilize airflow right next to the glass panel.... that doesn't work very well. The only exception might be if you ran water cooling to the GPU, if it'll fit.

It feels more akin to a kitchen appliance than a computer. If I were to buy one today, I might consider the newer Torrent size variants they have that are smaller. I for some reason thought the front grill was a metal of sorts. It's just plastic to look like metal. Also the included fan controller is quite far away from the CPU header on my X99 board, and assume for moat others. Had to buy a fan cable extender in order to get the controller to properly work. If the fan controller is not connected to CPU FAN pin, it will put all fans at 100% all the time. VERY VERY LOUD, LIKE MINI WIND TUNNEL LOUD. Temps were the lowest of any build I've done before though at the expense of my hearing 😅. Once I was able to find, purchase, and wait for shipping of this 1 tiny fan cable extender, it became also one of my most quite builds, and setting to scale up according to CPU demand. I'm more conservative with my temp desires, so it's set aggressively once past 60 C degrees to ensure things don't reach 70 C even when rendering as I do design work. That being said, I love the presence of this case. It's honestly a conversation every time someone comes to see our office setups and genuinely impressed, largely due to the form and function of this case.

They come with just 2 basic non-RGB 120mm fans, despite the 5000D being able to accommodate 10x 120mm fans.

The design "rut" is kinda intentional. All their recent cases are from the same series so they share an aesthetic. An aesthetic that I find to be one of its greatest selling points. Also, if you want something else from Corsair the 5000T shares some core elements with the rest, while also providing some differently flowing lines on top and front. Also to note the lack of removable radiator mount applies only to this particular case from the series. 5000's and 7000's have it removable.

PC games don't even come with a disk anymore even if you buy a physical copy and it's rare to not have internet access to download your games, so those changes are actually very natural

I only used this on my last PC build because Newegg shipped every single component for my ground up build at the same time, minus the case, which I had planned on being the beQuiet 500dx. I decided to cancel that case and went out to BestBuy the day that all of the other components came in, because I wasn’t willing to wait another week. BestBuy had two cases in stock. The 4000D Airflow, and the 4000D RGB, both in black. Went with the Airflow. Haven’t looked back. I’ve built in hundreds of PC cases over the last decade. This case I can honestly say has been the most enjoyable. Simple. Intuitive. Awesome thermals and looks very good. Worked out too, Newegg sent the 500dx despite me canceling it. Gave it to a friend for free, and he wound up having me swap his ASUS G15CS prebuilt system into it. 10/10 would buy this case again.

I'm just wondering what Fractal Design became. They were a reference with their Arc series, especially the Arc Midi R2 and I'm still using is to this day even though it starts to look outdated but airflow is still good but internal design and ergonomics are lacking. I wonder why they lost their place as "awesome neutral design with performance and silence all in one." All those full RGB cases are blasting way too much visual meanwhile I'm looking for discrete and subtle design that doesn't let performance down. Maybe I'm asking too much...

Check out the Pop from Fractal

I have the Fractal Meshify 2 with the tinted glass panel combined with a black motherboard, black memory, black CPU cooler, etc. With the RGB turned off the thing is a black monolith of silence that could be used in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
