Corsair Obsidian 1000D Leaks onto Amazon

A bit bizarre to see, but remember back at Computex 2017 where we showed you some prototypes? Among them was an early build of the 1000D, the new Obsidian flagship chassis from Corsair. To date very little we've heard about it, however, it's been posted in full on Amazon, photos, and everything.

The chassis is listed as Corsair CC-9011115-WW Obsidian Series 1000D Super Tower Case Premium with Tempered Glass and Aluminum Smart Case. Well let's just run through the description:

The Obsidian Series 1000D is the ultimate super-tower PC case, able to house the most incredible PCs within its iconic tempered glass design. Hinged tempered glass and aluminum doors make accessing your system a breeze, while a dual-system layout lets you install two full PCs into a single case. An integrated CORSAIRCOMMANDER PRO lighting and fan controller makes your case smart, able to control and monitor your system using CORSAIR LINK software.

The ultimate super-tower PC case, able to house the most incredible custom PCs
Iconic and clean exterior lines, smoked tempered glass side doors and seamlessly integrated RGB lighting
Integrated CORSAIR COMMANDER PRO fan and lighting controller
Dual-system layout lets you install both an E-ATX and Mini-ITX system simultaneously
Telescoping fan/radiator trays make it simple to install up to 20 fans

Telescoping fan and radiator trays, up to 20 fan mounts and a triple-chamber design equip the 1000D for the most ambitious of cooling setups, able to mount four 480mm radiators simultaneously. When you want to create the most epic build, only the 1000D is up to the challenge.

The Obsidian 1000D was listed at roughly 500 USD, and apparently also was briefly visible online at the Corsair website for 499 USD, on both locations the chassis currently is out of stock.

Nice looking case but the front panel IO cables look out of place. Could have done a better job by hiding them.

That's one big *** case!

Personally, I still prefer the looks of 900D over the 1000D tbh.

Love my 750D, and doubt that I will need any sort of case update anytime soon. Nice and minimalistic.

Nice but wait ?

500 bucks for a case ? Is there a worldwide case shortage too to justify that kind of price for something that does not seem spectacular ?

Well, This is going to be one of the biggest cases made (that isn't custom made) Not to mention materials and labour costs. Still this is only around 50-100 bucks more than the 900D i believe, or here across the pond, about 30 pounds.

Still, curious to know if anyone would actually use all 20 fans that this thing can use, just reminds me of the case made totally of all Fans

The 900D almost costs 400€ too... on the other side, it's got pretty much all the stuff you could imagine, like fan trays etc., that's all a number of extra parts. Putting this thing together might indeed be twice the work than with any normal case. Also they usually come fully modular, lots of holes for screws to mount etc.

29,5 kilograms, wow ?

Yeah, my 900D is already heavy a f but 30kg is really something... imagine you put 4x 480 rads in there like it's capable of, along with the blocks, and the water / coolant... you might really need a friend to help to drain that loop!

Yeah I have a 900D too and I can't imagine something bigger. I've been thinking about downsizing for a while but now.. idk, aside from the front I like the look of this case. Ugh.

I went from a NZXT 810 Switch (about the same size as the 900D) to a lian-li PC-05SX that was a huge downsizing.

I have 3 mini itx systems. Next upgrade it could make sense to get one of these and up cycle one of my mini itx's into here. Would make a nice staking box.

I have the 900D, these cases are really designed for hardcore multi GPU water cooling setups. Think 3-4 radiators. So just fans would be a waste imho. these really shot up in price, I think I got my 900D for under $300 but that was awhile ago. There are better cases now imho, but this is a classic design.

I went from 900D to 750 and still looking for smaller case. Now my next build will be as small as possible. 900D was a overkill.
