The Corsair OBSIDIAN 750D is another welcome addition to the ever growing enclosure lineup of the Fremont giant. That high end doesn't always needs to carry an exuberant price tag is one of the strong points of this 750D.
Being a full tower there is no problem with hardware compatibility whatsoever. Our large E-ATX motherboards and longest video cards fitted as a glove, the latter even without removal of the modular HDD cages. Multi GPU solutions will fit in snuggly inside the 750D. The tool-free storage solutions and the modular HDD cages are well executed. The drive space amount should satisfy the need for even the most die-hard storage geeks out there.

Cooling wise the inclusion of the 140mm PWM fans is an improvement over the ones use din the 540 Air case; nevertheless I'd still rather prefer the inclusion of a 3 or more channel 2/3 speed fan controller. The 140L fans, when run flat out, are still audible. Okay they shift some serious air, but the utilization of 140mm Fans is all about a great balance between airflow and noise, with the accent on noise. Also with the inclusion of an integrated Fan controller, the end user could hook up some of the fans from their water-cooling gear. But hey that's just my two cents.
The great liquid cooling support will be a big plus for the sales of this 750D. This besides the very sleek and stylish looks. Of course if you find this a stunning looking case or not, is purely subjective and is all about your own personal taste.
The best is that this complete package will not cost you an arm, nor a leg. In fact the 750D is the not so wealthy man's 900D case. Retailing around 150 Euros is far from cheap, however you get darn good value for your money. Hence why we award the Obsidian 750D with the high end and the value award.
