CORSAIR iCUE 5000D RGB Airflow Review
Packaging & Contents »Introduction
I would like to thank Corsair for supplying the review sample.
If you are reading this review feeling some Déjà vu, then you are not completely mistaken. The original Corsair 5000D Airflow, which we reviewed in January 2021, has been around for over two years. This variant offers some tweaks and utilizes their latest AF120 Elite RGB fans. Also available in white, we have the black variant for review. On top of these updated cases, Corsair is launching the new fans themselves (read our review here) and also a new AIO which utilizes the fans - one of which we will use as part of this review build. In other words, today's launch is all about the AF120 Elite RGB fans, with the iCUE 5000D Airflow RGB and AIO making a support appearance.
