The Corsair Carbide 330R Titanium Edition mid-tower case proved interesting to review. I have used sound dampening solutions in my cases some years ago, one style a very dense material about 25mm thick that added almost 1 kg to the overall case weight and...

The Corsair Carbide 330R Titanium Edition Quiet case is a full-featured mid-tower enclosure that provides several different case cooling options and comes with two installed fans to get you started with optional locations for up to five case fans. The new...
3 speed fan controller, Good clean looks, Precision fit of parts, Silent Case, AIO 240 and 280 water radiator ready, Great clearance for air cooling solution
Shows fingerprints, Only seven PCI slots, EPS CPU power wire access is in the back corner only, Little room for wires behind the motherboard tray
In the end I chose a high quality air cooling solution for this review, why?Two reasons:One is every other Reviewer will add the Corsair all in one water solutions in the case and two the air cooling solution allows the top to be kept on tight and to keep...
A big plus is the amount of room behind the motherboard for cable management, and then there are the dual 120mm fans in the case. Overall we think the Carbide 330R is a decent chassis, we do miss a fan controller, especially for a silent chassis you'd li...
At the start of this review we moted that the Corsair Carbide 330R was simply a silent version of the 300R, and indeed, as the internal layout is damn near identical it would be very easy to argue this point. However, to say this is somewhat over simplif...

Corsair's Carbide series is meant to be their mainstream and more affordable line but the superb build quality and accurate machining shames other manufacturer's mainstream offerings. Of course, there were concessions made by Corsair to keep the 330R's ...
In the 330R's favor, its primary competition in the marketplace consists of the Fractal Design Define R4, which it generally beats handily. That's really the target; I love the Nanoxia Deep Silence cases and would easily recommend one over the 330R, but N...

The new Corsair Carbide 330R has two features that Corsair is hoping to attract people to buy the case. The first would be its sleek clean look. Before, we had to pay more bucks for a simplistic looking but fully-customizable case with the class like what...
Quiet fans, Internal silencing foam, Support for large aftermarket CPU coolers (175mm), Support for large, highend graphics cards (450mm), Toolless design, Builtin fan controller
Nonmodular (3.25" bay), Fans can be heard on high fan setting
Let us recap my reasoning and scoring method before diving into my final words. First I look at what the company is saying it offers. For example, say the company states the case supports large / long graphics cards or ten quiet fans. In this example, I e...
Abstract: Not so long ago, you only had a handful of options if you were looking for a silent case. Luckily, things have changed in 2015. Hardware.Info tested no less than 20 silent cases for this review, and compared them to four of the classics. Which case stri...
