GreiverBladeNICE 1/2 Corsair AIR 540, well ... i originally ranted on how Corsair did a vertical HAF XB (but using a different layout and design), but this time it's a real... shame ... altho the price is 1/2 too ... (almost ) split the 540 in 2 re-use the grill and general look and ... well ...

seriously ...

ill keep with the X2 case, corsairs edition or model is to thick for me... seems like a mini fridge!
thanks for the comparison by the way

Regards,

GreiverBladewell that's what i meant .... 1/2 540 for 1/2 price ... there is interest and buyer for it ;) (altho its from SPIRE ... urk... )

pechei meant design!
i like most the single case... corsair's model is ugly

GreiverBladecorsair model is the original ... SPIRE just ripped of the design to do a 1/2 version, not calling that thing the X2 model and the 540 the Corsair model :roll: (totally not the same case, and probably not the same quality also ... one thing i reckon to Corsair is their case quality )

although by "shame" i meant the lack of R&D behind the Rindja and the apparent copy of the design of a case that is here since quite a while now :laugh:

raschmidtThey didnt do any R&D. This is a case that has been on the chinese market for about a year or more now. Or maybe the chinese just managed to copy it in the future and then later copied designs for a time machine and went back in time to release their copy before this one was released.

RockarolaWho cares about the Chinese market?
You order a chassis and what you'll receive is two bricks and a mismatched pair of counterfeit Nike Air.

Yup, "probably"...why take the chance?

I'll ignore the fact that you just called me an idiot, in a rather roundabout way, and address the issue.

How will you return an item from a Chinese website, how will you make a complaint about receiving a shitty copy, how will you get your money back from a defective product? (good luck?)

If you're an idiot or don't use common sense

• Stick with the main websites that have a good reputation.
• If you don't know which ones those are, you can use google (unless you are in China, in which case you can just ask someone on the street).
• If you buy from a 3rd party seller, check the feedback. You'll get screwed on Ebay just as much as you will on Taobao if you don't use common sense.

raschmidtI return items, complain about the quality, and get my money back for items quite often from chinese websites.

vega22yea, i have a 540 and it feels cheap and thin.

sorry if that burst a bubble.

vega22bitfenix, phantek, fractal and a couple of others do quality at all prices. corsair it's only the top tier.

GreiverBladethen we don't have the same case ... because neither the metal frame or the plastic feel or is thin nor cheap.
although even if it would be as you wrote it, i got it for 68$ + 15$ shipping ... i can't complain ahah (since my only complain with Corsair is their pricing)
(nope no bubble bursted :p )
