Review on ๐Ÿ”ฎ CORSAIR Crystal Series 680X RGB White ATX Smart Case with High Airflow and Tempered Glass by Kenneth Wood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great case with a downside for some GPUs

The build quality, looks and dedicated cable and PSU compartment are excellent! Lots of fan mounting options (I have 6 in total) and while it's hard to call it an airflow beast, it certainly has good airflow and I haven't had any temperature issues, even on stress tests and games like Cyberpunk 2077 maxed out. My GPU settings will allow it. However, powerful GPUs cause problems here. You can see the problem in my picture - I have a GeForce Vision 3080 and it's half an inch away from the front fans. And the ONLY way to get to the front filter is to tilt the fan mount inward. So unless you're good with needle nose pliers or you're good at removing the GPU, you're never going to clean that front filter (or even change those front fans). I really hope they fix this problem in their next version because it's a great case. just not suitable for newer high-end GPUs like the 3080 or 3090.

Pros
  • Always liked it
Cons
  • Something's wrong
