Guys, we are are going to be receiving stock today of the new 500R cases from Corsair. Stock should ship out today.


Corsair Carbide 500R Midi Tower Case - Black/White @ £94.99 inc VAT

CA-057-CS_400.jpg


Want even more outrageous cooling flexibility? Step up to the 500R. It adds a 200mm fan mounted on the side panel’s mesh screen for extra GPU cooling, a multi-channel fan controller, and removable and relocateable hard drive cages. The ability to move and remove hard drive cages not only improves airflow — it also allows you to install graphics cards of up to 452mm in length.
Support for USB 3.0 and 2.5” SSDs is built-in. Two USB 3.0 connectors are provided on the front panel and connect directly to motherboards with compatible USB 3.0 headers. Integrated SSD support lets you install 2.5” solid-state drives in any of the hard drive bays, without having to deal with adapters.
The beauty on the inside goes beyond the black-painted interior. Corsair’s innovative cable management system provides a straightforward way to route cables behind the motherboard, not across it where it can interfere with airflow and give your system a cluttered look. And since looks are an important part of any build, you’ll appreciate the ability to turn the front panel fan white LEDs on or off with the push of a button.

- Side panel with mesh fan mount locations
- Dimensions: 20.5” x 8.1” x 20”
- Four 5.25” drive bays
- Six 3.5” hard drive bays with 2.5” compatibility
- Eight expansion slots
- Supports most 240mm dual radiators (15mm spacing)
- Six 120mm/140mm fan mounts
- Four 120mm fan mounts
- Front I/O Ports: 2 x USB3.0, 1 x FireWire, 2 x Audio
- Two-year warranty

Only £94.99 inc VAT.

Why do case manufacturer's still think people need more than one 5.25" bay? Especially when the case has its own built in fan controller. I really like the look of this case but 6 HDD bays is the problem with my current P182!

EDIT: By the way, its 'en route' :p.

LOL Smart arse :)

You can need multiple 5.25" bays for a number of reasons, card readers, 2 optical drives and maybe a seperate fan controller and even a double bay res for watercooling.

Options are there, you may not need them all though. You have 7/8 expansion slots but I bet you dont use all of them either?
