Corsair 800d replacement

mr griffin · 1 Oct 2011 at 19:08

Anyone know if Corsair will be bringing out a new revision of the 800d or a new replacement case thats the same sort of size and great for watercooling?

The 800d is a good case but its been out quite a while now just wondered if they had anything new on the horizon :confused:

As far as I know the next case for release by corsair is the 500R, which I think is a midi case, pretty much the same as the 400R OCUK stock but in white and with a fan controller...

Was hoping they would be making an 850d or somethig of the sort.

Corsair never discuss any future projects - so the only time you would know about an updated 800D would be if it popped up on some showfloor ... that hasn't happened yet.

I think the way Corsair will go though is to try and produce a silent high-end chassis and then go for something to replace the 800D soon after that.

Just a feeling though ...

Well the 700/800 series are just so awesome it will be hard to anyway to beat them.

That being said, maybe allowing a fitting of a 240 rad at the bottom without having to hack it around yourself.

Id be happy with a 800d. Ever thought about modding?

If you want a good watercooling case, OCUK are stocking some new cases that are manufactured in american i believe.

yeah not keen on them they are so unfinished to start with, the corsair cases are nice as they make for a nice easy build, which is always good. I'm looking for a case to house a thermochill 120.3 & 120.2 rad dual loop setup. The 800d for me would need one more drive bay to fit equipment and I have. I use 2 x dual bay rez's and a fan controller so no room would be left for a dvd drive. I guess I could always change out one of the reservoirs for an internal rez fited to one of the d5 pumps, its such a big case there is plenty of room.
