Hello all,
I am once again in the market for a new build. It will be my 4th or 5th build and I really want to go all out this time with specs and water cooling as well as aesthetic mods.
I am currently in the process of picking out a case and would like to receive some inputs from the fellow computer geniuses.
I would like to go with a corsair obsidian case: 800D or 750D.
I have done many researches and looked at many video reviews.
800D's cons would be that it is a very old case... a first corsair case! Due to its age, it might be outdated in features compared to the newer cases. It is also discountinued and might be difficult to receive support from corsair if something were to go amiss.
750D's cons would be that it is speculated to have severe QC issues. Many reviewers on youtube as well as customer reviews from newegg claims of such problems. Not only that, but 750D suffers from inefficient air flow from the front of the case due to the front fans being choked from poor design.
However, whatever the cons may be, both cases are great. 750D has 4 star rating on newegg and as for 800D, even though I couldnt locate its rating on newegg due to being discontinued, is still known to be a very good case.
This is where 760t comes in. 760t is an almost flawless case with a solid 5 star rating on newegg. It doesnt seem to suffer from any problems such as restricted air flow, etc.
Which case of the three would you recommend? And what are your reasons?
(Btw I already have 800D so getting my hands on it is not a problem. Also, just because i have it doesnt necessarily mean i should just go with it. I am under the return period and it is unopened.)
