I don't know exactly when, but folks here been saying soon.. so my guess is very soon.

Really hope so. I'm going to hold off order the 750D for as long as I can in case they release the air flow addition as I don't want to mess around trying to source a separate panel

Those braided PSU cables really make a difference. Definitely will be investing in some of those for my next build.

I was going to do all of my cables but its too expensive to do everything. I do want to get some blue Sata cables soon but need to find the right ones that have the right shade of blue to match the rest of my rig

Very nice.

^^ How about a matching blue led strip under the case for a cool hover effect? I think it would look awesome on that dark desk

I've been tempted to look into that sorta thing, or maybe one on the back of the monitor. I don't have a lamp in that area of the front room and the main light that end reflects off the monitor late at night so it would help with eyestrain

The glue on my USB panel part of the front of the case doesn't seem to have been glued properly, it's always pulling away.

That doesn't sound good. Are you having hard time plugging in USB devices? If it's really that much PIA, we can always send you a replacement front I/O panel for your 750D. You'll just have to submit a request at Corsair.force.com and we can arrangement the part replacement for you.

Yeah, sometimes I have to push the plate back on until it peels off again. I'll get right on that.

Good stuff. If you run into any issues during the RMA process, let me know right away.

I have had the same issue with my front plate, it seems like it wasn't glued on properly.

Jay Blizzay · 2 Jul 2015 at 17:33

Is this case better than the 650d for cable management?

I could never get the side panel door to sit flush due to the small gap between it and the motherboard tray.

zoomee · 2 Jul 2015 at 18:51

Its got a tad more space but not by much mate, I still have to squeeze the side panel on similar to my 650D, but then again I have a lot of cables!

I don't think its as good a quality case as the 650D either - The 650D had a solid front panel make-up, BUT has its downside in that it was noisier due to more holes etc in the case.

We can send you a replacement front plate to replace that broken one. Is it the front I/O cover? or the front cover?

MasterOC · 3 Jul 2015 at 07:09

Got some cable combs coming for the new Cards cables . need to order the airflow front mesh panel too .

It's the I/O cover, basically it keeps peeling up from the middle, I keep pushing it back down and it usually stays for a few hours before popping back up.

What should I do to get a replacement?

Greybeard · 6 Jul 2015 at 20:43

Got it, that should be an easy fix.

Go ahead and submit an RMA request at Corsair.force.com and let our customer service know that you just need the I/O cover to replace your faulty one. That should take care of it.
