For you fans of vertical mounts, the chassis also allows upward mounting of your GPU. Please also note that there are no spaces for 5.25'' inch bays. This also increases the number of storage options when compared to the older 270R. The 275R features the ATX standard of 7 expansion slots, and also room for 4x 2.5'' and 2x 3.5'' drives, of which the 3.5'' bays are 'tool-less'. Whilst certainly not as squat or compact as something like the Fractal Design Define C/Meshify C series, it's still a relatively small footprint given what you can fit in it. It's a trend in case design that - to someone who has been around since the old giant towers - never came around fast enough. That said, do you still want to cram a 1080Ti, high-end AM4/LGA 1151 CPU, and liquid cooling? Well, cases like these can do that. In fact, tempered glass has a habit of doing this on virtually any chassis, come to think of it.Ĭertainly, however, the 275R (and cases like it) aim to continue the more recent push toward more compact, less space heavy systems. There is no doubt, however, that adding some glass paneling to any case seems to elevate the 'premium' factor. Is, therefore, the 275R just a re-skinned 270R with tempered glass panels? Well, we shall see. We liked it a lot, and found that it certainly delivered on the claims of being easy to work in, spacious, whilst providing decent airflow (even with the 2016 trend of closed off front panels, one that - in 2017/18 started to recede). We reviewed the 275's 'predecessor' (quotes used purely because the 270R is, naturally, still available) here. Unless you like a challenge, no new system builder wants their first project to be a cramped, hard to work in, or poorly laid out affair. For a new builder, this is very important. The 200 series of cases from Corsair are marked (on Corsair's site, that is) as 'beginner friendly,' with them merited as being easy to work in. Corsair is a company no stranger to the PC market, having been releasing products for over 20 years. Today, we have the new Carbide 275R chassis in for a look over. Clean, compact, and tempered glass to boot.
