That stinks just a little... I ordered the white 500R back on 10/18, got the same $30 rebate so after that it will be $90... Getting the black one for $80 or $69 is not bad, it is a pretty good case. Since I prefer the white and I've got my build done already I guess I'm okay with the higher price paid...
FYI - The case comes with 4 fans already, 2 front 120mm white LED intakes, 1 rear 120mm exhaust and that huge 200mm white LED side intake one. The only other places to put the additional 120mm fan would be in one of the top 2 exhaust positions or at the bottom in front of the power supply as an intake - unless you wish to remove the side 200mm fan.

What kind of server? A Norco case might serve you better in the long run. |

The Fractal Arc Midi is the same final price right now, no rebates and more highly rated and this gets front page?

Picked up the 500r in black about 6 months ago to replace the Antec 902 v3 I had been using.
Build quality is damn near perfect, not a big fan of the bright white LEDs on the fans, but you can turn them off. The cable routing is top notch and nearly every one of the holes has a decent rubber grommet. The front filter screens are an absolute bitch to clean but the bottom filter screen just slides out. My only "real" gripe is the corsair fans using their own style of connectors, but whatever. They are all quiet and variable speed out of the box so it's not a deal breaker for me. Unless I do something stupid and break it beyond my ability to repair somehow I see this thing housing my personal build for years. I paid around 40 dollars for it after selling my antec case to someone I was building a rig for but would have paid full price without regret. If you are in the market for a new versatile mid tower you can't do a lot better than the 500r. |
