TheBigTroll1226@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 03/29/14	Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow Cube Case ATX Window 2X5.25 2X3.5INT USB3.0 No PS Cons:a little big for the most part and the lack of extra hard drive cages are a bane for some Pros:-built pretty well-space behind mobo is more than enough to do whatever you want-temps are pretty good Comment: Good case overall. well done for a cube case
Esg@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 03/18/14	Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow Cube Case ATX Window 2X5.25 2X3.5INT USB3.0 No PS Cons:heavy, bulky unit if you dont have an area for it to be placedDVD drives are placed vertically instead of horizontally, which kinda ruins the look in the front Pros:Window is amazingLots of space for all hardwareLots of fans if you wish to increase airflow Comment: Got this for my gaming computer, love the case. Window is great if you have LED fans and being split into two allows most of your cables to be hidden away and out of view. Allows a ton of fans to be placed. Price is also quite good considering its size, great buy if you have the space for the unit and dont mind how the DVD trays look.

Comment: This case replaced my 7 old Antic 900 case. The room in this case makes it easy to build in as well as setting up water cooling systems. It looks great and is quiet.Well built.
Patrick_T@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 02/05/14	Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow Cube Case ATX Window 2X5.25 2X3.5INT USB3.0 No PS Cons:Inbox fan are noisy Pros:Cable managementAir flowEasy to build Comment: I needed a non standard case to fit my design in the living room. This case was in the good range for depth, lenght and height. The air flow is very nice, on the top i have installed a Corsair H100i and it's awesome. The side of hhd have no room for fans or anything to cool this place. The cable management is nice and it's easy to work with. The inbox 140mm fans are Noisy, replaced them with noctua stuff.Good purshase
Angus_L@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/25/13	Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow Cube Case ATX Window 2X5.25 2X3.5INT USB3.0 No PS Cons:Only 2 slots for 3.5"HDDSo so material. Lots of plastic componentsNo holes for liquid cooling tubes (in case the rad is outside)Poor manual Pros:Excellent cable managementSix slots for SSD/2.5"HDDSATA quick connect for two 3.5" HDDGood air flowAble to change CPU heatsink without removing the MB Comment: Another non-standard case which has a interesting design. The cable management is excellent. Lots of holes to route cables. Generally pretty good air flow and stock fans are quiet. I never experienced any rattling. It has a drive cage for 6 2.5"HDD or SSD, if thats what you need. The two 3.5"HDD slots have quick connect making changing 3.5"HDD to be quite simple.I found only 2 slots for 3.5"HDD to be not quite enough. I hope there are two more slots for 3.5". Some of the plastic components may break if handled incorrectly (ie drive cage snap-on, front panel). If you want to build a liquid cooling rig, there no holes to route your tubes to the outside. The documentation in manual is somewhat brief and didnt describe how to remove drive cage or front panel too well. I ended up breaking some snap-ons for the 2.5" drive cage.Nevertheless, I am still happy with this case.
SirBilliumSir@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/18/13	Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow Cube Case ATX Window 2X5.25 2X3.5INT USB3.0 No PS Cons:- Build Quality is Disappointing- Vibrations, Vibrations, Vibrations- Side Panels leave much to be desired Pros:- Amazing Cable Management- Great Airflow- Massive Window- Nice Design- Clearance for the largest of air coolers (inc Noctua NH-D14)- hot Swap 3.5 inch bays (the only 2 you get though) Comment: I bought this case for its great cable management possibilities as well as for airflow and to show off my system. As much as it accomplishes those goals, I am very disappointed with the build quality. I constantly hear vibrations coming from this case. Kind of ridiculous considering its decked out with nothing but the best of fans (3x Corsair AF140 Quiet, 3x Corsair AF120 Quiet, and 2x Noctua NH-D14 fans on my cooler). I was honestly expecting better. The side panels are more flimsy than a N00b Apevia case I had back in the day (2006-7) which is a joke.The concept is a great one, but for a few bucks, they could have made a few tweaks and spent a few more dollars to make it truly worthy of the Corsair name, let alone Carbide series Quality.
Andrew_I@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/16/13	Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow Cube Case ATX Window 2X5.25 2X3.5INT USB3.0 No PS Cons:Almost impossibly cheap build quality; nearly everything moves with a small amount of force and quite often parts will rattle Pros:Plenty of space and excellent airflowAttractive designEasy cable managementLarge window Comment: I ended purchasing this elsewhere as I could get it in store for a cheaper price. The concept of this case is stellar; the cube is eye-catching and effective. The execution in terms of build quality and materials used is poor. For what I paid I was expecting a case with minimal flex and little vibration noise.
Ian_M@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/06/13	Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow Cube Case ATX Window 2X5.25 2X3.5INT USB3.0 No PS Cons:Plastic SSD mounts Pros:Lots of room, good airflow Comment: Overall, great case. Love the way it looks, the way it sounds, everything. Definitely would suggest to anyone thinking about it. One problem I came across was a long backorder list; the thing took 3 weeks to ship. The other issue I found was that the plastic clips holding the ssd mounts. The back 2 of the things broke on me right out of the box... but it still functions, there are 2 other sets on the mount. Other than that, its an excelent case. Love the side panel. 4.5/5, but I'll round up
