Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:-Rear fan was a little annoying when installing mobo
Pros:-Lots of room for long video cards-Cable management -Various fan mounting spots Comment:
I was looking for a solid case that wouldn't break my budget and could fit a long video card, and this fit the bill perfectly. It might not have super cool LEDs, but i personally prefer the sleek black matte look. Its got good airflow even with stock fans (though the rear one got in my way a bit when putting in my mobo). Great case overall, would buy again/recommend to friends |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Side panels a bit flimsyNot many extrasOnly two USB3 ports on front of case
Pros:Corsair name means qualityNice durable black finishAir intake filtre Comment:
I got this case to build a small non gaming system for my wife. IT has nice classic looks and isn't flashy. Even the inside is all black when there is no windows to see it.I found the side panels a bit flimsy and can easily warp if put into the slots wrong. Lining everything up can take a few tries. Also the sliders that the drives attach to are wobbly plastic - probably good for noise/vibration but seems odd.I had a issue with the USB3 header as my older mobo doesn't have a header - I need to buy a USB pass through to go the the rear of my board. If it had USB2, I could at least use those in the meantime.The case didn't come with any extras other than screws and 2 120mm fans, but it gets the job done for this basic build. |

Pros:One of the best price/quality imoTooless designLots of fans can be added Comment:
I used it for a month and replaced it with my gf's crappy case. (Apevia) I got 200R for even more compact design but overall, 300R is better than 200R. (which made me get rid of 200R & get CM XB) |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:None really.
Pros:Nice airflow. Decent cable management. Price isn't bad either. Comment:
I purchased my first Corsair 300R for a budget build that required a case with decent airflow. I don't think I went wrong with this case. Since then, I've used them for a few other builds with equal success.Lots of fan options. Cable management is decent with moderate space available for hiding/routing cables behind the motherboard tray.Only includes trays for 4 hard drives. Any more than 4 hard drives and you will most likely have to use any empty 5.25" bays for any additional drives.All in all, for the price you pay, this case is actually quite sturdy and well designed. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Built a little light-weight so that the side panels feel flimsy and flex too much when your trying to put them back in place.
Pros:Good value for the price and will accomodate a H-100 top mounted. Nice drive bay enclosures and great cable management options. Comment:
Overall a decent case for the money. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Lacks a bit on case accessoriesAlso included fans are nice but one more would make it more workable
Pros:Good build QualityNice design Comment:
The case over all is nice easy to work with and has a nice build and feel to it. The included air filters are a plus and really for the cost of the case you can not really expect much more. It is good with the cool with and extra fan or two running an ATI 7950 Inside. Plus the case it not to big and great if you dont have allot of realistate to put a case |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:I wish the holes had grommets i guess?
Pros:Cant think of anything bad about it Comment:
Great, great case!Positives: For looks, it has a nice, clean look. If you're looking for classy without paying the big bucks for an obsidian, this is the next best thing. Inside is matte black which is really nice. Installation is a delight. Easily accessible wire holes everywhere, nice cut-out allows you to remove mobo backplate without having to take entire mobo out, nifty, harddrive trays, good mobo mounting (no standoffs, just directly to case). They even give you some black zipties. Now that's love! Highly reccomend this case Negatives, sort of:The holes that pass wires would be nicer with the grommets that the 500R and other models have. You can still order them from the corsair website for 10 bucks, though. I kinda wish the side panel didnt have fan mounts, but, again, i can just order a plain panel from website. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Compact, Tight cable management.
Pros:Good looking, Budget oriented, Corsair Quality. Comment:
Overall the 300R in my opinion, the best sub-100$ case you can get, it has the nicely engineered feel of Corsair, and the case is very easy to work with, especially with the built-in standoffs, the only con I found is that there is not much space for cable management on a standard power supply, so I recommend pairing this case with a fully or semi Modular power supply. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Side panels, from my personal experience, was a big hassle to put back on. One side would be in and the other out for some reason every time i slide it in. Took me a good 30 mins to screw both side in which included my foot taking part holding the panels in place.
Pros:Nice design, Cooling option, DUST Filters ( This is a Must have ) , very light(didn't expected it to be that light), very easy installation of drives and overall a very nice product. Comment:
I will recommend to my friends, that's for sure. at this price its well worth it for a simple, none of that led stuff, and yet very well designed. Save some money on the case but Spend it on the inside.. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Not too quietDouble check fan mount spacing.Panel seams don't quite fitPanels are flimsy and difficult to mount
Pros:CheapExcellent ventilationEasy to work in Comment:
If all you want to do is throw together a computer and quickly get it running, this is the case for you. It has plenty of room to work in. It easily accepts the largest tower heatsinks and the longest video cards.There is no need to modify anything to get it in tip top condition. It's not because the case is perfect, but there is simply no point to modifying it. The airflow is excellent with room for 6x 140mm and 1x 120mm fans, while sound deadening is next to none existent.The overall build quality is good. The case is sturdy when fully assembled, but the individually they are a bit flimsy. Some of the seams of the case don't quite line up perfectly. The side panel, where all the cables are hidden under, is the worst affected of this. It's very difficult to get all the hooks to catch in their notches when all the cables are tied down back there.I would highly recommend replacing the two included case fans, since they are not too quiet. One thing to be careful of is to make sure the 140mm fans have mounting holes spaced for 140mm mounts. Don't buy fans that require 120mm mounts, as you'll only be able to install two of them on the side. The top and front 140mm fan mounts are offset and won't work with 120mm mount spacing 140mm fans. For the front, I would also recommend something with higher static pressure, as it is quite restricted. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Not the same build quality than the Corsair 500R, yet very good.
Pros:Excelent bang for the buck valueAll the feature you expect from a higher-end caseLot of space for larger video cardLot of space for anything Comment:
My main case is a 500R. I bought a 300R for my father, and now for my girlfriend. The pricetag of the 300R is simply amazing. The free room you get to place every cable out of the airflow is amazing. While it's definetly the small brother of the 500R, this one fall short of no feature. While you get 1 less fan mount point in the front, it's remain an amazing airflow / vent capability.If you use that beast in a gaming rig, I would recommend adding an intake sidefan. By adding this, you might want to balance your airflow by adding a top exaust as well. A noctua bundle of low speed fan will make an amazing job to keep that case silent. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:- Price? This case can't really compete with the pricing of other low end budget gaming PC cases which can go from $25-40 in most "cases" (Ha).
Pros:- Great build quality from Corsair.- ALL BLACK.- Has great features (USB 3.0, cable management, room for GPUs, etc.) Comment:
Definetely a case to watch out for. I have personally never found use for huge expensive full tower atx cases so I usually only look at the mid-towers. This one certainly stands out with its simplistic all black sophisticated styling. |

Corsair Carbide Series 300R Black Gaming Case
Cons:Could use a few more cable hooks to help with cable management, somewhat flimsy panels
Pros:Sleek matte black finish, excellent airflow, ample room inside, cable management, tool less design Comment:
Overall, an excellent case and extremely happy with my purchase. Love the simple, matte black finish to the case (I am not a fan of LED fans or LED cathodes - simplicity w/o looking cheap is king for me). This case introduced me to cable management and it was a breeze, although a few more cable hooks would have helped organize my cables behind the MB panel. Probably not the ultimate value proposition at the regular price point but the looks won me over (was also considering the Bitfenix Shinobi and Fractal 3000). |

Pros:Great Case!SturdyLightInexpensive Comment:
Got this case for $68.99 on sale.The case was wonderful to build in and it looks great! Would completely recommend it to anyone. The only problem I ran into was there are only about 3 of those punched-out cable hooks on the backside and they're all closer to the front of the case; there are none by the back under the CPU cutout. |

Cons:none at the moment...
Pros:build quality, cable management, layout, ease of use Comment:
great case for the price to say the least, cable management is on par with much more expensive cases, tool-less features are great, solid build quality with a nice brushed plastic that doesn't smudge! Also fits nearly ANY video card and clears the largest CPU coolers with room to spare. |
Nice look. Good quality for the price. The drive bays and spacing inside are well designed. The only things I don't like are the overly exposed top grill and the small number of front USB ports.
