CORSAIR 3500X Updated

CORSAIR has announced the launch of the updated 3500X mid-tower case, which now features reverse rotor fans and a range of enhancements.

Check out the product showcase trailer below to see the refreshed CORSAIR 3500X in action:

Visually, the updated 3500X is not deviating too much from the original 3500X. It still has the dial tempered glass panels offering a wraparound view of the system. No column obstructs the view from the front side, and the case comes straight from the factory with three pre-installed reverse rotors that ensure a smooth airflow as well as clean visual aesthetics. Along its side, you now have double-shot grommets and a spacious cable channel to assist you with cable management. You can route your cables seamlessly without compromising on the visual look.

The 3500X now also supports the latest reverse connector motherboards, such as ASU, BTF, MSI Project Zero, and Gigabyte Project Stealth, offering you access to easy builds that keep the cables out of sight. For the fans, you can choose between 3x iCUE LINK LX120-R RGB fans or 3x RS 120-R ARGB fans. The LX120-R version includes a pre-installed iCUE LINK System Hub, which makes it ideal for players looking for a complete iCUE LINK ecosystem.

With this option, you will have the case ready for a neat build without cable clutter and with streamlined connectivity, making it ideal for future expansions and upgrades. You can also go for the RS120-R ARGB version, which features daisy-chain PWM and ARGB connections and supports direct motherboard control and lighting. Both options offer ample headroom for airflow, with mounting points for up to 10x 120mm fans and support for multiple radiators up to 360mm on the side or roof.

The spacious interior allows you to accommodate large graphics cards up to 410 mm (16.1”) long, with a pre-installed GPU anti-sag bracket to keep your graphics card securely in place and reduce strain on the PCIe slot. The front and side panels are tool-free and allow for easy component access. The modern front panel I/O offers USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, and a combination audio jack. You can choose the case in either black or white to suit your setup.

The new CORSAIR 3500X is now readily available from the CORSAIR website or select retailers around the world. Each case ships with a two-year warranty and a worldwide customer service and technical support network. You can check your local retailers or the CORSAIR website for updated prices.
