Corsair Carbide SPEC Omega review - Article

Corsair Carbide SPEC Omega
Angular looks with tempered glass front and side panels

The latest in the Carbide series of PC cases from Corsair would be the SPEC Omega. The model comes with a see-through tempered glass side panel. The new model is aimed at a more affordable and aesthetically pleasing segment. 

With an asymmetrical look and exterior, the SPEC series look a bit different compared to the square and slightly curved chassis out there. Corsair will offer three different color options to match your system, Black and Red, Red and Black or Black and white. These chassis will be sitting in a sub 100 USD segment, offer good looks (if you like the style) but also are feature-rich products. Keywords here would be a proper design chassis, tool free, decent space, nice airflow and a chassis that is even ready for liquid cooling. Admittedly what Corsair has been doing with the Carbide range works out well for them, affordable quality chassis that remain good looking and offer to be a feature-rich product. The Carbide Series always has been a somewhat compact series products. Open the easy-access tempered glass side panel and you’ll discover a builder-friendly design with three tool-free optical drive bays and tool-free hard drive bays with extended 2.5” SSD compatibility. There’s room for extra-long graphics cards and, as with all Corsair cases, the SPEC Series includes a cable-routing system that keeps wires and cables out of sight, and out of the airflow path, for a cleaner look. 

Have a peek at the product reviewed today; the Carbide series SPEC Omega chassis from Corsair, costing 99 USD and something similar based on country and VAT at 99 EURO. It certainly comes with a nice design and a very decent feature set. Next page, please.
