** TWO NEW PRODUCTS FROM CORSAIR - H105 & OBSIDIAN 250D **

[Roady]

No white ring?

Dats a nope.

Agreed! Have they changed the CPU mounting too? (Can't recall what the H110 mounting is like)

The rear of board mount kit looks very similar to the one that came with my NZXT Kraken X60 (280mm rad guys!). It's utterly rubbish (cheap flexible plastic to stop metal 'nut grips' from rotating doesn't work!). The rest of the kit is brilliant, just that 1 design flaw.

I've actually used the rear mount from a Corsair H60 on my Kraken X60 as it is superior in every way (it's metal and adjustable!).

Would be good to see the H105 pitted against the X60. Most other dual rad benchmarks omit the X60 as it's 2x140mm not 2x120mm (and it's also one of the best that it trounces most of the other aseteks, so they leave it out of their benchmarks!)

250D pricing is a little high baring in mind the price of the 350D. Nice case though

Gutted, just ordered a h100I from a competitor

Any idea when you'll have them in stock?

 

[wndsr]

Looks lovely but there's no chance in hell I could ever get my case to look that neat and tidy!

This case isn't competing with the 350D, it's competing with the Prodigy. First look is pretty favorable in that respect - similar size, similar price, better looking exterior.

It is a nice idea to add the colour options to the Hydro range, but why do they still supply the dowdy grey fans rather than the retail SP fans with the same colour matching options?

Seems like a cheap cash grab to me.

Any Pre Order Pricing for the 250D for a long time customer?

 

[Ryan-3]

I've never even seen anything about the 250D. That, I like!

corsair typically dont offer different pricing and their RRPs are stuck to by their resellers as corsair have excellent channel control.

 

[CraigN]

what would be the best 80mm fans to use with the 250d?

do any exist that don't sound awful that are actually useful?

 

[rjk]

bequiets.

im putting some live this afternoon

 

[hardkore]

Rjkoneill.... What's the ETA on the 105's?

 

[ivorito]

How soon is 'very soon' regarding the 250D?

 

[Something Else]

the 250D does look good.

when it comes in you guys should get the latest obsidian range together for a photo shoot, would be nice to see. My friend has a 750D now so I plan on getting my 350D and his 750D together for a size comparison shoot.

250D, 350D, 750D and the 900D to show the size difference.

I suspect corsair will offer a 550D and 650D with their new look some time soon.

 

[dickie999]

i really like that case!

 

[TidyWorks]

Really excited for the 250D, any hints on ETA?

 

[LLBDTiberio]

Just the other day I had been talking with a friend about how Corsair should make an ITX case, they stole my idea!

Really love the look of the case and that there is ventilation on both sides of the case, means you don't have to worry about your GPU if it doesn't blow air out the back

[dannywaugh1]

the 250d looks like a great case.

 

[Bart_Hunt]

I have a request.
Could you add a picture of 250D with right panel off?
And does it allow 180mm long PSUs?
Much appreciated
