Corsair 5000D RGB Mid-Tower Case - 3X AF120 RGB Fans - Lighting Node PRO - High-Airflow Design - RapidRoute Cable Management - Black

I've been building PC's for decades. I used this Corsair 5000D RBG airflow for the first time! I've previously built in Fractal Design, mostly, which are a solid case more focused towards low noise. Overall it's a great case, I would definitely build with it again. PROS: - Very easy to assemble. - Side panels have attached thumbscrews, can't lose easily - Generous space behind motherboard, great cable routing - Great looks - Lots of space (in most cases) - Great airflow - Magnetic dust filter on top panel CONS: - Didn't come with a manual, screws and extra parts aren't labeled - for me this was no issue, but for some people certain things might be a struggle. - Very tight fit for a 360mm AIO up top - you have to have very dexterous fingers to get the 4+4 pin CPU power cables around it once it's in. - Rather noisy - but this is an airflow case, to be expected!

Purchased this after I decided to start a new build after seven years. I got the PC completely built and so far, everything is working great! I really love the straightforward design. The sleek finish along with the quality of materials used gives me comfort because I feel like this case will easily last with no problems. The cable management was great straight out of the box. I really appreciate the Velcro straps as they are a tremendous help. Air filtering is always a concern, so I was very pleased to see how the top and front panels attach and detach easily. The front air filter pops right out and the top filter has a weaker magnet to hold it into place but not strong enough to have trouble removing it. Overall, I give this case five stars. If you are looking for a mid size then look no further. However, if you are going to be using a 4090 I would caution you as this case may be too small. PROS: Straight forward design Top and front panels attach/detach easy Air filters attach/detach easy Great quality materials Pre installed Velcro straps to help with cable management CONS: My only concern would be that the size is insufficient if you are using a 4090, but why would you not use a full size case anyway?

I needed room for a water cooling system in my gaming computer, and I had to move to a larger case. We definitely got larger and it had plenty of room for all the additions I was making to my computer. It is well-made and very sturdy. It was also easy to run cables through, yet keep them hidden.

This case is mostly well designed and executed ... but has a few weaknesses. One weakness is the much too small space between the rear of any reasonable size power-supply (not included) and all the cables that plug into the PS ... and the 3.5" HDD cage. It is essentially impossible to position the HDD cage at its nominal (and preferred) position close to the power-supply. Fortunately the HDD cage can also be attached in two locations further away from the power-supply ... though this puts the HDD cage in a position that otherwise could have been useful for other purposes. If you have no hard-disk drives ... then you can simply remove the HDD cage and all the space you need in this area. The iCUE in the name of this product seems to refer-to the RGB capabilities being built in. And indeed, this case comes with three small PCB cards (one in a tiny case) that presumably control RGB fans and other RGB products. However, this causes the case to have an absolute huge pile of cables to tie all these bits and pieces together (with each other and the fans at the front of the case), which (to me) is a "huge mess" of cables. The case does have nice cable ties and all cables are hidden by a hinged door AND the outside of the case, but nonetheless, the cables are already a huge mess even before the motherboard and power-supply and their cables are added. If you have a EATX motherboard, hopefully it is not much wider than regular ATX, because there is not much room for a motherboard wider than regular ATX. This is a good case and I understand why the Corsair 4000D, 5000D and 7000D are very popular cases. However, after looking at the execution of this RGB case, I can see that having all the RGB control on the motherboard leads to much cleaner cable layouts. And so, I would spend a bit more for a motherboard with whatever RGB capabilities you want ... and buy the regular non-RGB versions of these 4000D, 5000D, 7000D airflow cases. Incidentally, the airflow characteristics are quite well designed and executed, so you should be able to create a well-cooled computer with these cases. If tiny size is very important to you, and the 4000D or 5000D works for you, they are fine cases, but you will have to spend a great deal of time and effort carefully routing and securing cables. If you can tolerate the extra size, weight and expense of the larger 7000D case ... I definitely recommend the 7000D airflow case over the 4000D and 5000D cases.

Update/Edit: Front fans are PRETTY loud. No idea why. Maybe MSI afterburner is reconizing them as gpu fans, i will mess with it later. For those having trouble: ensure you are plugged in to both the fsn port directly snd the other one that has USB C. Then do all the other plugs normally (put the tiny pin one as CPU_FAN) for the front stuff, power it with your pkwer supply through SATA, i reccomend usong the power one first just in case. then try. The lighting with the ecosystem is great, cool effects. Not very noisey, but mostly because i have a obnoxious gan right next to me. For build quality, it flexes a bit much, I also had to remove the HDD tray to even use my power supply, so that is very strange. Cable management is ok i guess. Airflow: seems good, front pull in, AIO pushes out. Msi motherboard fit is a bit weird at first, but its ok in the end. Assembling it took a long time (whole night!!) but probably because this is my first time. Value for money: Yeah i guess you get what you pay for, nice quality. Weight: Kinda heavy, not like you would be moving it THAT often.

Muy buena case

الكيس ممتاز جدا من ناحية التهوية والمساحة والترتيب العيب الوحيد هو انك تتنتبه من الزجاج الجانبي وتتعامل معاه بحذر لانو سهل الكسر

Great case! Bought two of these for thier esthetic and hardware flexibility. Love these cases.

After spending quite a lot of time looking at various cases I finally decided to get the Corsair 5000D Airflow RGB. Prompt delivery, as always with Amazon Prime. An aesthetically pleasing and high quality case. There’s lots of space to fit everything, even for complex custom water cooling loops if required. I’d highly recommend the RGB version with the additional fans and controller which seems good value for money. The current spec of this build is as follows: Asus RoG Strix Z790-E-Gaming Wifi Intel i9-14900K CPU Corsair iCUE H150i Elite LCD XT AIO CPU Cooler (Push/Pull fan configuration) 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium 6600Mhz DDR5 RAM Nvidia RTX 4090 Founders Edition GPU 1x 1TB Crucial T705 PCIe 5.0 NVMe Drive 2x 2TB Samsung 990 Pro PCIe 4.0 NVMe Drive I also purchased 4 additional fans which I installed into the side of the case. Cooling is excellent, CPU and GPU remains at relatively good temperature even under load. The amount of space for additional internal hubs and controllers is ample. Also dedicated channels behind the motherboard allowing for nice neat cable management. I would recommend this case to anybody that is competent enough to build a computer. 🙂

Es un excelente gabinete, con gran espacio y variedad de opciones para el ensamblado del equipo. Incluye 3 ventiladores RGB con excelente iluminación. Muy bien gabinete si lo encuentras a buen precio
