Hi,

Sorry for the strange question but...i need to know the exact height of this case (i have very limited room in the space i need to put it) I've looked online and found contradicting results, so if any one owns this case...could you help me out? :)

Much appreciated - thanks! :)

I own the SPEC-03, which is almost the same height of the SPEC-01. The SPEC-03 measures exactly 426mm from the desk to the top panel (same as the specsheet written in the Corsair website). The SPEC-01 is a few millimeters higher, at 428mm (difference of 2mm only due to the thickness of the SPEC-01's top panel and feet).

Ideally, if the space where you will put the case has a height of 430mm or more, those cases can fit in (but note that these cases have exhaust fan mounts at the top, so, if you are to install some fans there, you need more headroom for better airflow).

Thanks for the response! I actually managed to "modify" my desk a little (removed a drawer) so now there's plenty of head room (a good 20 cm or so).

Thanks again :)
