Hi
Lovely case. I agree with Tom, this is a system builders/integrator dream case. Right away I am trying to think of ways to use 2 AIO or somehow shoehorn in a full loop system. I am seeing a Maingear system coming out soon instead of in the S340 case as I prefer this case over the S340.
I would like to build in it, that is the true test of any case I see.

An instant hit.
I love that SSD mount in the back. The motherboard cutout area is pretty big. So it's kind of amazing that it took this long for someone to find a way to utilize all that space. But I'm not surprised that Fractal Design thought of that.

Can't wait Guv!!!! This one has me spinning. I realized if I use the new Corsair SFX 600 watt power supply, many more options open up for that bottom chamber.
Crap, I can see my plastic being bent all to hell in a new build

Yes!! Please say full loop and not AIO. Pretty please! I always wondered why case reviewers never had a rad or 2 laying around to test fit during the review, just to give people a better idea of what's possible. Love to see ya stuff this with as much raddage as possible!

People in the YT comment section keep sayin the 400C from Corsair is better.. idk about them, but I'd take this any day over that case.C corsair gear is overrated imo. Only thing I like from them that I own is there original M65 mouse.
They have a matx case too, they released both, but both only in black.

Dude you should know what YouTube comments are like there are so many Sheep/Zombies, Saying this product is better since they saw someone else type it :lol:
To me i can't see how the 400C is better, The 400C looks plastic compare to the Define C.
I have said this in other threads to me the quality of Corsair products have gone downhill in the last 24-36 months. (I'm only talking about the cases) nothing else.

This is the first case in a long time that I would consider buying. I need to rebuild my rig - using what I currently have & maybe a new gpu - this would be perfect...
One thing I couldn't tell from the vid - does it have any holes in the psu shroud for usb or audio cables? Or would they have to sit on top of it and exit via the 24 pin/ gpu power grommets?
