Corsair Carbide 300R Case Review

Inside the Corsair Carbide 300R

Both panels are attached to the chassis using black thumbscrews. The motherboard tray has a huge hole for you to access the backplate of the CPU coolers without having to remove the motherboard from the case, several holes for you to route cables behind it, and a few clips for you to fasten cables using cable ties.

In Figure 13, we get another overall look inside the case. Expansion cards are fastened using black thumbscrews. The Corsair Carbide 300R supports video cards up to 17.7” (450 mm) long. The support for such long video cards, however, was done at the expense of lacking a second disk drive cage, which would probably make the product a little more expensive.

The power supply is installed at the bottom of the case. It can be installed with either its bottom fan facing up or facing down, so you can decide if you want the fan of your power supply pulling air from inside the case or from outside of it. As already discussed, the case comes with an air filter for the power supply.
