We review the new Carbide Series Clear 600C from Corsair. This new chassis in the Carbide series is fairly unique in design as it makes use of a reversed ATX form factor. Ehm, yeah so pretty much you flip everything around and you'll have the first intricate indication of what this chassis is all about. The end result is a chassis that is not only unique, it's a fantastic looking one with lots of features as well. Something different, and we like that very much.

Corsair has been going strong in the chassis market. Very few of their PC cases left us with mixed feelings. It all began with that Obsidian 800D and more recently 900D series which to date are among the most well known and reputable chassis. With the Graphite series they pursued a somewhat more mainstream to gamers level of PC cases. And then came the Carbide series for which Corsair pursued the mainstream market, and as we all know that means a cheaper product often resulting in stripped away features, style and functionality that we know and learned to love, from say the Obsidian or Graphite series. Admittedly what Corsair has been doing with the Carbide series works well, as it did convince me in a positive way when they launched the initial series. These chassis remain good looking and really are feature rich products.

The latest creation that was brewed from that mystifying bottle of potential is the Carbide 600C (with the C for Clear). Actually there are two models being released, the 600C as we review today, but I also need to mention the 600Q that places more focus on silence (with the Q for Quiet).
