Can anyone tell me which case this is?

Hi everyone, I've inherited a case that I can see is a Corsair. From looking at Corsair's website I can also see it looks most like a 330R from their Carbide series but I can't, for the life of me, find this case ANYWHERE!

It has a unique silver part at the top of the case where all the buttons/USBs are but no amount of googling I do seems to bring anything like this up.

The front door also seems to be brushed aluminium. All in all, it's a really nice case but it's driving me insane not knowing which model it is.

Can any case-experts out there please help to ID this case?

It's a Corsair Obsidian 550D.

Depends on what you consider expensive these were around £150 ish? I think. They are good cases!

Good enough for me! Thanks for the help guys.

Can always count on the OC forums crowd!

Yup, I had one. It's geared towards silence, great case!

I've been using a Fractal Define R4 so far and thought it was pretty epic tbh.

Does anyone think it's worthwhile moving over to the Corsair?

I reckon it would be a sidegrade at best - they're similar designs with similar objectives. The Corsair is nice enough but I can't see that it offers anything over the R4 unless you prefer its looks.

One thing that I really like about the R4 is the completely modular design. All the 5.25" and 3.5" can come out, be rotated and reattached in any configuration you like, which makes it pretty cool IMHO...
