    CES 2011 : The 650D from Corsair, possibly the perfect case?

    If you're looking for a case that does everything in moderation, maybe the Corsair 650D is perfect for you?

    That looks like a brilliant mid tower case! It's a shame it costs $200 though, a bit too pricey for a mid tower case. Something closer to the £50-£100 would be ideal.

    Lovely case, however the reporter could of atleast learnt his lines before hand. Stuttering and saying "erm" isnt an acceptable practice when working in the media.

    Seems to be happening quite a bit with the hexus reviews recently.

    WAY too expensive. Looks nice, but why do they think they should charge that much?

    Agreed nice looking case with good features but the price just seems elitist and downright pure greed - that is why I will stick with Coolermaster as they give you serious bang for buck and the same features.

    Well it's just the graphite 600T chassis with obsidian D series panels.
    Looks like it's the same cost as the 600T too.

    Yes the corsair cases are expensive but they are nice and still using thicker high quality steel where as most other case manufactures have shifted to thinner steel and origami folding to lower the costs.
    The big problem is at this cost they are now competing with Aluminium mid-towers from Lian-Li

    Price seems too expensive - you forgot to mention the front panel ports hidden behind the top 5.25" bay next to the power/reset buttons.
