One lead for the whole fan set
Locks you into Corsair fans
The LINK system is the reason to pick this over the plain 6500X. Fans daisy chain into each other and one lead goes back to the hub, so behind the tray there is almost nothing to route. Downside is that it locks you into Corsair fans at Corsair prices for ever, and the hub needs its own SATA power and a USB header.
Used for: 1–3 months
Ten LINK fans included
Dual chamber without the dual chamber price, and the divider has a cutout in the right place for an AIO tube. Ten fans in the box makes the sticker look reasonable once you price the alternative!
Used for: 1–3 months
Fans arrive already mounted
Building in it took an afternoon rather than a weekend, mostly because there are no fan cables to plan for. The side intake fans came pre-mounted on the bracket, which saved a fiddly job
Used for: More than a year
Vented divider fixed the hot PSU chamber
Second build in a Corsair dual chamber and this one solved the thing that annoyed me about the first: the divider is now vented, so the PSU chamber gets its own air instead of cooking quietly. Over a year of daily use and the RGB has not lost a zone, the fans have not clicked, and the hub has survived a dozen Windows updates. Cleaning is a two minute job because both filters pull straight out of the front edge!
Used for: 1–3 months
Tidy without trying
Tidiest interior of any build I have done, and I did nothing clever to get it there!
Used for: 6–12 months
Hub has been reliable
Software wants an account
Nine months and the hub has not dropped a fan once. Wish the software did not need an account
Used for: 3–6 months
The hub is mandatory and eats the cable space
Everything I would warn a friend about before they buy this particular case. The iCUE LINK hub is not optional. Without it the fans do not run at all, so it must be powered and connected before first boot, and it lives in the rear chamber where it takes up the space you wanted for the cables. The glass on the side and the front meet at a corner with a visible seam, which on a case this expensive looks like a compromise. And the biggest one: the drive mounting is two 2.5 inch trays on the back of the divider, both of which are directly behind the airflow path from the side fans. Fine for SSDs, but there is nowhere sensible for a 3.5 inch disk at all.
Used for: Less than a month
One cable for ten fans. Sold, frankly
