New Corsair Cases announced

They're transparent doors! But they are removable so can act as a window.
Quite like it tbh. When I next get the case-itch then that'll be the one probably :D

Very interesting. Not keen on the handle on the side window/door, though :(

I wish my 750D had a handle similar to this. Even though it's not bad for getting inside sometimes I wish for an easier option. First world problems, huh? :D

One problem I would have is that the side panel is completely see-through, so there's no blind spot to hide HDD cables and such. Good idea but requires impeccable cable management.
 
I hope the side panel isn't some sort of gloss finish or acrylic...basically anything that might attract dust and hence scratches when you clean it. Also, lets hope those hinges are decent and not cheap plastic. I'd say I will definitely be getting one or the cheaper solid panel version if that see thru jobs turn out to be pants.

True, that could be an option, but I'm thinking about what I've got available at hand at the moment. And I do mean near the front of the case rather than near where PSU is located if you misunderstood me - as the entire section with HDD bays on display is just not as attractive in my opinion :)

Nice case all around though. I would consider it for sure if I wouldn't have just bought 750

Corsair has pulled off a rather neat trick here – it's quite a flashy case, but it's not (too) vulgar. I like it a lot. It's neither a 13 year-olds wet dream or a black featureless fridge.
 
Not too bad looking of a case, although complete tragedy about the non windowed version those side molding and grills look awful.

Not too keen on those huge feet either. Looks much better in the OP than in the video.

 
The version with the window might actually be quieter as the non-windowed version has two more fan mounts putting openings in the case. Presumably there is slightly more air-flow because of that on the non-windowed version, but the airflow looks pretty good already with the front and top of the case being all mesh and fan mounts.

The only thing missing is how much it will cost, though there are some posts saying the windowed version is significantly more expensive.

The US price (for the window version) is apparently $180 so my guess would be ~£140 ($180 > £110 + 20% plus a little extra 'non-US' tax)

Windowed version looks better but like you guys already said would be slightly quieter, but you pay for what you get, Much better build quality, worth it in long run !!
