Corsair iCUE 5000T RGB - It's Nice.... But Just Too Damn EXPENSIVE!

  • Corsair released the 4000, 5000 and 7000 series of cases, and while they were well received, a lot of consumers wanting the glitz and glam from the X range of cases, with the cooling performance of the D Airflow models. Could the new iCue 5000T RGB from Corsair be the best of both worlds, and then, at what cost?

    I don't feel like the price is terrible. The Commander and LL fans cost $140 so minus that it's a $259 case. Considering the built in RGB, their straps are $45 bucks, it's not as bad as it seems.

    Honestly I’m a big fan of Corsair products, but after trying both the 5000x RGB and 7000x RGB, I ended returning both for a Lian Li O11 dynamic XL. While the 5000x had some nice features, I practically had to strip to its core to fit in an EATX board. The 7000x fit my MB, but it looked clunky, cost a fortune, and I could only get two of the fans to work. Not to mention both cases were difficult to build in and things like an inside metal door that doesn’t close, and a partial cable shield just added more headaches. The T version looks nice, but even more expensive than the 7000x. I know material costs have gone up, but $400 for a case is ridiculous.

Can we PLEASE see some "TOP OF THE RANGE" and "NO BUDGET LIMIT" - BUILD suggestions/reviews?

    I've got 5000D at the moment but i was expecting a case like this to swap.Why? I've got Rog Thor 1200 and its a bit dissapointy to didnt have psu shroud cutout to show it. By the other hand the 7000d its too big for my taste. Its hard to find a case that match with Rog Thor with psu cutout and upper holes to breath (in my opinion a really bad Asus decision to put screen view with fan upwards)

    The biggest thing I can see why it costs so much is because of the commander pro. In Canada the commander pro costs $100 at my local computer store. I have the 5000D Airflow and I might as well just buy some rgb strips to get somewhat the same effect of this case. It is to bad too because this case looks awesome
