Introduction

We test and review the all new Corsair Graphite Series 760T chassis. The chassis finds its legacy in the Graphite series, but this one certainly is a bit different in a couple of ways. The looks are insane with a big redesign, large see through panel, hinged and latched doors, magnetic top panel and yes even a fan controller. It is one of these x-factor products really, and we feel it will get embraced by a large chunk of the the PC enthusiast community. The chassis is a full-tower based chassis. Let's have a peek at what Corsair has to offer shall we?

Now I should mention that two models are actually being released today, the Graphite Series 760T and the Graphite Series 730T. The 760T will be the company flagship Graphite chassis. The chassis will feature a transparent side panel and one opaque side panel on the opposing side. Both are hinged in the back functioning as a door that can be opened up, but also removed. The panels are mounted in a steel frame and roof. The 730T is the very same chassis, but with steel side panels as opposed to the windowed 760T. So that is the only difference.

Both the Graphite 760T and 730T have nine expansion slots, six 3.5-inch/2.5-inch combo bays (two modular hard drive cages), with four tool-free 2.5-inch side-mounted cages for SSDs, three tool-free 5.25-inch bays, 2x USB 2.0, 2x USB 3.0, thumbscrews for all expansion slots, and cable routing with tie-downs to keep things tidy.

Next to the stunning looks you also will see the chassis equipped with proper cooling and a fan controller. Included are three AF140L 140 mm fans the two front intake fans are LED lit. In total you could mount up-to eight fans three 120 mm/140 mm up top, two 140 mm/120 mm in front, one 140 mm/120 mm in the rear, and one 120 mm down bottom). Radiator compatibility is diverse as well, we'll talk about that in the review.

Corsair is going to offer the Graphite 760T in two color options, Arctic White or Black, and will cost $179.99 when it goes on sale in April. The 730T is only available in black and will be $40 cheaper at $139.99. The new chassis will obviously accommodate Corsair liquid-cooled kits, high-end video cards and a large number of 120-mm and 140-mm fans. On the input-output interfaces available will be USB 3.0 (2), USB 2.0 (2), jacks for headphones and a microphone. The 760T is tagged as full Tower chassis and can even take a XL-ATX and EATX form factor motherboards while it can house up to three 5.25" devices, up to six 3.5" HDDs and at the backside you may house another four SSDs. There are many fan mount locations as well as multiple radiator mounting points sized from 120 mm up to 360 mm.

But yeah, talk is always cheap you guys want photos! So meet the Graphite 760T and then head on over to the next page...
