Corsair Graphite 780T Review

[TalllPaul]

No doubt about it, love it In yellow and black though ofc

 

[kenny01924]

Yes, you can fit the fan between the fans mounts and the front mesh;

Optical bay cage is not removable on the fly, they are riveted to the frame.

make sure the fans are corsair my noctula120s don't fit using three of them

Nice case . After seeing tom's review with my son recently , he has insisted he wants this for the new system I thought I'd finished . Bloody teenagers

lol my former step-son did the same to me. I got him the C70 Military Green (he was huge into being a Marine at the time) he saw me browsing cases one day and I was on the C70 white and he was like OMG I love that case. welp I know have the Green one and he has a white one lol.

Really like the look of this case. Would be a nice replacement for my haf 932 amd editiion. The white has really grown on me too

 

[Wraith]

Yeah true. I still think that that shouldn't factor into his decision or else every case he builds in, he won't be able to give it a White Gold award

As has already been explained, TTL wanted to give this a white gold award as he thought it deserved it, but because he will be using it to build Orca v2 which is his own personal build, not one of the OC3D review cases like the motherboard case or the graphics card case, while it doesn't receive the white gold award it still kind of does, which is just as good imho.

I finally have the day off tomorrow so I'm doing an all nighter and catching up on some games with the aid of coffee, The DPD ninjas will not escape me ^_^

A no-brainer.

This is a no-brainer. I think this is the first case I've seen where I didn't have to think "Should I buy it and just buzz the niggly bits off?" It is that close, why wouldn't you?
I do think though, having seen 3 or 4 case reviews on the trot from Gary and Tom where they have said something like " Now if it were just X mm/cm taller/wider/deeper..." that case maunfacturers should ask themselves three times, when they have something ready for market, if they haven't missed something; because they should know by now that Gary and Tom are going to say "Yes guys; you have missed something really obvious to folk who have been doing this as long as we have."
That is why this is a very good Gold and not a White Gold; it is achingly close and a third go-round of everyone involved would have seen it over the line.

Hopefully you can rearrange the date of delivery, Friend of mine in Rocksprings like an hour or so south of SA tends to have bad luck with FedEx ^_^

naw that wont due I wont be off again til next monday lol. FedEx round here isnt all that bad and I live in an apt complex so if I'm not home they normally leave it at the office. I also have about 330$ worth of other stuff coming its all used stuff so I can keep my backup in my air540 water cooled as well. Well at least the cpu AMF6350. The gpu is non full cover blockable so I've got a MK-26 coming for it as well in yet another shipment lol and i still need to decide what lenght of tube rex's I'm going to go with in the 780T. I'll use my 150m EK res for now but cant decide if i want a 250 or 400 to go in. I'm going to wait til i see how everything lines up first and then order it. Plus also debating on if I'm going to use dual 360mm XT45's (already own one) or bite the bullet and just get 2 new 360mm UT60's. Currently it'll be 360mm XT45 top 240mm XT45 floor and 280mm XT45 front. My main reason for doing this is when i changed out the 280mm for the 240mm to get the rad inside the case on my air540 my temps went up 5c idle and I'm having to turn the fans up a bit more than I like to keep it there. anyway I'm rambling lol but its my passion to do this lol.

I'm actually thinking of changing my white Luxe, that I'm actually using for my first full day today, it is the first Corsair case that has ever caught my attention. I think I might wait for all of your builds before taking the plunge, so hurry up guys get em built

 

[S_I_N]

gonna be a few days on mine all parts should be here by thursday but with getting off at 8pm or later I dont know if I'll rush into it. since its gonna be fun making the routing of tubing pretty with 3 rads lol.

Haha thanks ^_^

Replaced all fans with AF White LED's, 3 x AF whites on top, 3 x AF whites in the front, 1 x AF white 140mm in the back and 2 x non LED SP Performance editions pushing through the H100i, Much better temps compared to having the LED SP's on there.

Looks blue but it's bright white, My camera sucks ass.
