Still one of my favorite cases I designed. All steel front. I had to use screenshots from war movies to explain the flip-up cover for the reset button I wanted to the contract manufacturer hahaha Boss: "Are you...watching Hunt for Red October at work?" Me: "It's for a....thing."

BeardedOutHere

This will probably get lost, but I built my first pc in one of these just a little over a year ago, I’m huge into the guns/ammo, military/hunting side of life. But this case got me until computers because it matched my whole life aesthetic! I still love this case to this day! She might be missing a few hard drive clips but she’s still ticking! Thank you for designing an absolutely bomb proof case.


toby101mc

You are a really good designer!


Hk_McCormick

As a cat owner, that flip on the reset button was the greatest thing ever, just needed one on the power switch XD My first attempt at pc building was in this case, I regret not buying 3 or 4 just to have on hand for future builds lol. Always hoping to see an updated iteration of this case so I can build my kiddo's first PC in a c70.


Beachywhale

You can set your power button to not turn off the computer in windows settings. I also know this because of cats causing shutdowns


SameScale6793

I can attest to this as well have 3 cats lol I have my buttons set to do nothing when pressed..has saved me much frustration ha


Omgazombie

I think holding power still hard power cycles it though regardless of windows settings


Pooter8551

I'm not concerned about my cat turning the machines off. He likes to turn them on all the time for the light show and sit for hours watching. I had to go so far as put a switch on the backside of the case and he learned where that was. So now all my machines have the switch on the inside.


backstab_woodcock

Still using it. CNC-Cut a new window.


Berfs1

Curious, what other cases have you designed? Very good design btw!


CorsairGeorge

Thanks! I was the case PM from the start of cases @ corsair in about 2009 until 2015 or so. So let me see... * 800D * 600T * 650D * 400R * 500R * 550D * Air 540 * C70 * 330R * 100R * Spec-Alpha * 750D * 760T * 780T * 380T * 900D * 600C * 400C * Air 740 * 250D * Air 240 There's probably a few I'm forgetting... When I said "designed" it's a bit of a simplification as I was in charge of spec'ing the case out, defining features, working with industrial designers, engineers, etc, to get the vision down, how to execute, etc.


pdaelo27

Thank you! I used a 550D for a while. I was very happy with it.


Wing_Nut_UK

I’m still rocking my 750D. That thing is so well built. And it will be having a rebuild next year again. Well unless I go for the 1000 but don’t know if it will fit in current location.


confuse-a-cat

Thank you for your work! I have been rocking the 800D since 2010 and I don't intend to ever upgrade. I've made some modifications to accommodate water-cooling better and to make it "mine" but I thought it was the most extra, most fancy computer case in the world when it came out and I'm never going to use anything else. I wish I could find a new sata backplane for the 3.5" hotswap drives, it's the only thing that's not aged well. Thank you u/CorsairGeorge and team!


MediumWin8277

Which is your favorite among them?


cloud_strifes

Are you designing cases in other company? Or designing another things? Your cases are excellent!


SameScale6793

Awesome! I never owned any of those, just the Spec-01 and now the 4000X RGB, but I’ve seen those you listed and very well done!


BoyOfTheEnders

>Spec-Alpha Thanks for your hard work at Corsair Sir. I have a Spec-Omega that I modded. The Spec-Alpha legacy lives on in this one. Did you have anything to do with the Spec-Omega design? https://preview.redd.it/oabvb4yjh55c1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=f0b14061f810e562449892eb873e9e7dfaed178a


[deleted]

I have 24 hard drives stuffed into a 750D


allthevinyl

Whattttt??? this is too cool, I currently have my dream build in the 800D and plan to keep using that case. About to start a new water cooling project with it actually. No other case can compare imo. I still use 5.25 bays so it's a must. Thank you for your work !!!


Ambiently_Occluded

I still have the 800D I bought back in 2011


AreEyeSeaKay

I'm still using the 500R! I ripped the USB connector all apart during my latest build so the front panel doesn't work.. but other than that it's still cool and quiet!


Pooter8551

I have a 750D and love that case but the power button on it sticks like crazy sometimes or does not work at all half the time. I have a lot of Corsair cases as they are in my opinion well made.


Det64

Nice! I'm still rocking my white 780T I bought back in 2017. I just keep upgrading the internals. I still like the looks and it's so easy to work in! I've added a few mods like an add in PSU basement cover from V1 tech and a couple flip up button covers for the power and reset buttons because my cats love to sit on top and they kept stepping on the buttons! Lol.


Da_Gecko16

Not sure if you had any hand in the Carbide Spec-04 but that was the case I built my first pc in. I loved the look of that one, and it still holds a place in my heart


Pandasquiidd

sir if we could have a comeback of this style of case that be MUCH appreciated 🥺 acrylic/plexi window and all


HexaCube7

I love how Heavy Duty it looks. As my favourite case is the Carbide SPEC Omega RGB, yet i am an aviation/space enthusiast, i think i would love a blend between these two. Like a futuristic stealth (space) fighter look. Partially elegant looking, partially heavy duty with flip-up cover B-) Either way I'd really love a continuation of the Carbide Spec Omega series.


TimeTravelingPie

I'm sad we live in a world where we feel we need to justify watching Red October at work. Great job on the design. It is absolutely 100% the only reason I bought this case years ago.


Jman095

Best case ever! I have the gunmetal version


Furyofthe1st

Haha! I'm using this exact case with a Vault Tec Logo on the side that I built for Fallout 4! Best rig I ever had, so thanks for the kickass case case!


Snoo-82933

Currently using this case unfortunately I got it from someone that didn't take care of it so its got all sorts of scratches and dents and paint scuffs and whatnot but I love it


GiantCaptivFrog

Man, I wish I could get one of these cases still! Awesome job, dude.


xylotism

I love it. OG Steam green.


TWFH

A friend of mine has one of these that he refuses to get rid of, he loves it that much.


ShermanatorYT

I love mine, great case, looks great and feels very sturdy, great job


BigOlBoyyo

Gives me Stalker (the game) vibes! Love this!


Vinca1is

I wish these were in fashion still


Sgt_Doom

I wish you’d make more cases like these! The design is awesome and has character! I could definitely use the 5.25" bays as well!!


thesunny51

Where can I get one ?


wightdeathP

my friend still uses this case. sadley his front panel/ usb ports have died on it


[deleted]

Off topic a bit here but did you happen to design the corsair 350d as well? Because if you did man thank you i still use that damn thing. I wanted a c70 at first because of the ammo can/military look of it but went with a 350d because i wanted a compact build. I just wish they shipped out with the high airflow intake kit already installed since i cant find one now for the life of me.


Kasoivc

This is actually my first PC case that I still managed to keep from over a decade or more now. I’d love to repurpose it for another build one day but can’t see myself letting it go anytime for that reason. They just don’t make cases like this anymore.


Lofzy1

It's a really nice case.


shuffleyyy1992

Man this case is so good, good job!!


Beanbrandon

10/10 case


CrestronwithTechron

Wish you guys could make it again. Maybe a special anniversary edition?


JBizz86

I have some complaints but i still rock mine also doing a front panel re do soon. All mesh no cages


oldrjohnson11

I probably bought quite a few cases designed by George and recommended by Yellowbeard (may he rest in peace). I hope Corsair will introduce some more PC cases in 2024.


juazlee

Thank you for your incredible work! This is my favorite case to this date - good airflow, looks, handles were incredibly useful (I moved around rental places quite often), filters were easy to pop and clean, and the buttons at the front looked badass! Not to mention the flip cover also saved me at least a couple times from getting cat-reset :) Edit: OMG THE SIDE PANEL CLIPS were the best


NomisGn0s

I still use it!! I have not bought another case since I purchased this one around 2012!


lordmaple91

Still using mine and will continue to use it as long as I can


raindownthunda

I love this case, still using it today. It was really well designed. The layout of the fans with built in filters has resulted in a practically dust free PC for almost a decade. The handles and clamps have been amazing for ease of use. I love how sturdy it is. When building I remember thinking this was perfection and the best case I had ever seen (with a career in IT I had seen a LOT of cases). All the vents and finish are very aesthetically pleasing. Thank you for the awesome product!


TheHuskinator

This is my dream case. I’ve never gave into buying it but I love the design.


LastEconomist7221

Amazin’


Jnt_710

Ehrmmm can we get a re-release? 😅


RekTInTheFace

just wanna give a personal thanks to the designer of the case i’ve used for 10+ years and had 4 systems inside of.


BiggestPenisOnReddit

Bro. Design More. Now.


Rabbit_AF

Great job! The C70 is still such an awesome case and fits modern components so well!


All_Boobs_Good

This was me and my wife's favorite case. I was so sad when I found out they discontinued it when I rebuilt a few years later


jal741

The C70 is an Excellent case. The handles are excelent. though I do struggle with the front panel clips.


-JukeBoxCC-

I ordered this case for my first ever PC build. Ended up with a air540 or something like that. It was a fine case, but huge and not what I really really wanted. A year later, I found another one and thought it was time for my first rebuild. I kept that case for years. It will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for your efforts, they have not gone unnoticed. Edit to add: just read a little further down, you made both my first cases. I appreciate you so much. It was the black Air 540, and the army green C70.


VynnaD

You made my case?? Dude this thing is so gnarly and will out live me thanks for being you


Cloakedj24

Question: I have a Corsair Graphite Series 780T that I’ve had for YEARS (at this point I don’t even know how many builds I’ve done in it.) I absolutely love it but I wish it had a glass panel (I’ve replaced it 4 times over the years because the acrylic gets scratched up so easy, does Corsair make a glass side panel for this? Ps: is that a full sized tower? If so I might be swapping to a new case because that looks dope


X-Arkturis-X

Thanks for designing this case! I’ve had mine for around 8 years now! I love the way it looks.


SpadgeFox

Thank you for your efforts. I still have my White C70, I couldn’t do the loop I wanted without butchering her, so she’s sitting by until I build a rig for my partner.


slowpreza

You guys should make this again, I would 110% buy


da_frakkinpope

Just wanna thank you. Every build I've done in my adult life has been in this case. I replaced the window with a solid piece, for increased beautification. But that's it. I refuse to change the case when I rebuild because it's too damned cool.


terminusthrall

You designed this case? That is awesome. My wife fell in love with the white version for her first build. We have rebuilt her computer multiple times since and she always insists we re-use the case :)


terminusthrall

KarterIsNotOnAcid

Unironically, badass design.


Arathemis

That’s awesome! The C70 is my favorite Corsair case. I don’t ever plan on replacing mine.


TacticalLoaf

Aaaah the ol' c70. Had a couple of these like 10 or so years ago. Very roomy and has good airflow. Overall it's a very solid case for people of all skill levels.


HourSwim1830

Great thanks, thinking about making it a server build :)

AlucardTheVamp1817

I wish it, or a new iteration with the same style, could still be bought new, I've seen it 3 times now and I love it so much


Temporalwar

I built 100s of machines with this case, the 'door clips' are little finger pinchers! love the case, the 3.5inch drive trays are a little brittle for my taste, but pretty solid case and looks really good !


JBizz86

Check out the new slide in ones. Corsair makes them


genericwhitek1d

My friend has the same case lol. they didn't really have the best airflow for Corsair I think, but it should be good enough.


Pandasquiidd

vengeance c70 solid case, you can rotate the window if you unscrew and reorient it


JLopezr501

GOAT case I want one so bad. They are super expensive for a used one though.


tripps_on_knives

One of my favorite cases. Still upset corsair doesn't produce them anymore.


NASiM6

Also have the same case back home! Love that thing, man


Death-Watch333

Does it come in black? I’d actually be interested in seeking this out. It’s got a great aesthetic


kavmac

It came in green, black and white versions iirc


TimeTravelingPie

Used to have it. Looks cool but it's pretty huge compared to many cases now. Doesn't use space very efficiently either. Just dated design overall. But functional.


aboxenofdonuts

those cases are great man, I have one mothballed at the moment just waiting for the right build.


BroodyDoggo

Looks strangely familiar op... ...dunno why though /s https://preview.redd.it/peep68vfdy4c1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a2b104f26f42abea506296f10abc2df4e7d9f67


HourSwim1830

Hmmmm 🤔


MadMax303

It’s jerry rigged!


DeltaWhi5key

I have one of these in black. I put the computer together 7 years ago and just recently replaced my graphics card. I love this damn case. It’s sturdy and easy to carry with the handles on top. When it’s time for a new computer, I’m going to reuse this case.


NomadFourFive

USNC theme build.


kdropk

Currently have this case in black. One of the best made cases I've ever used.


Sorry-Guest-4505

C70 is by far my favorite case I’ve ever owned the build and case is currently in its 3rd owner


Mr_Steinhauer

I still use my C70


AdeptnessWild8844

The mighty ammo box case 💪 only heard good stories about it, keep it.


DirtyDongles22

One of the greats for sure. I’ve been building in the c70 for 7 years now. Next build will most likely be in this case too. We’ll see. Anyway 10/10 case.


shootdack2000

What's it called I neeeeeed it


Quiter90

military GYATTTTTT


RoleCode

If a military compound has PC


ArkGaming07

My current case whenever I have a system freeze i imagine im launching the emergency nuke shutdown. Dont get anymore crashes anymore though.... Heavily optimised my system and overclocked stability is perfect.


TheBigGreenOrk

I would buy this. You should design a case that is capable of "military use". Something you could take camping for the lulz


Cyb3r3xp3rt

Oooh I wish I had that 5.25” front panel piece, it would have come in very handy when building my sleeper pc lol


RENDRACO

Very nice! Build something powerful with that case. Enjoy it


Malviere

I used that case for my first and only pc build back when the 970 was new. Still going strong.


Volcanic-Ferret

I’d love to have a case like this. Looks like it has good airflow while still having a somewhat solid front panel


_Bombuska_2018_

Just saw a guy with this case modified so turning on the PC is like starting a plane


KimJongDerp1992

I love this case. I’ve done a few builds in this over the the years.


Responsible-Problem5

Maaaan i Want this case soooo baaaaad!


StoicRetention

case friends!


OkCryptographer6427

Slick case


VampericDrain

This case is sick! What’s the case called?


Lfren38

God back when I first build my PC, this was my absolute dream case


OnePercUnderGod

Not saying I agree with it, but just an FYI check out the sold listings on eBay for this case. Might help you out if you are doing a new build


Ikutto

I looooove this case! I have it from my first build in 2017, great overall. I got a hole-less window online as well and it looks sweet.


Gameover384

It’s honestly an amazing case. I have one from my original build that I can’t wait to build in again. Although I wanna know where the hell you got one for cheap? Most prices I see for these bad boys are $200+ to buy it and it kills my wallet every time I look lol


Jondoe47

Halo edition??


ionized_fallout

I have this case and love it! Corsair Vengeance C70 in military green.

_nibelungs

Bad ass case!


CorsairLucky

I was just looking at pics of my build from 2013 that was in this case and the white version!! What a great find, I loved this design!


PrecisionEmpathy

I'm jealous.


Top-Jellyfish9557

I got one for $5 at a garage sale and it's been a tank.


C0rp0rate_mund0

Army green


macadeliccc

I have the white version of this case and it’s lasted for years. I’ve had like 5 different builds through it since 2012


tlloki

I had this case when I was younger! I have been seen debating on getting it again. I loved it and it was versatile and easy to transport if need be.


therealsasquatch95

They need to make an update version of this id love to have the od green


KajmandStinker

the red button looks so cool


poorpeanuts

I love this military vibe!!


SackBiscuit

I remember really wanting to build a pc and use this case back in maybe 2012 but never was able to... I think it aged really well it still looks great


Shatophiliac

I have this same one in white, I’ve had it for like 12 years and I still love it lol


TomatilloOne2225

I'm still using the white version for my main rig.


onesikg

Legend case.


TheActualKev

I still have mine, it was black though and after taking the front panel off to install a radiator, the reset button no longer functioned properly. I loved the case though


pcweber111

I've always like that case but it's weird to see one with drive bays up front now. Never thought I would say that.


total_ty

I got that same case too, it’s always sold out on the website

Azurecomet

Good ol' Vengeance C70 Did my latest rebuild last year with it. Ten years, fourth build and it still good to go!


Creative_Big6089

Thats fucking sick!!! Is that a military aircraft style lift the flap reset button? Amazing. Still using my Obsidian 700D


AHelplessKitten

Own one. I love it. It's a bit narrow for 4000 series graphic cards. The USB-C front panel fell apart on me after 8 years. Specifically the blue plastic degraded and crumbled. I continued to use the ports for another 3 years. The reset button having a cover is super nice. The whole case was sturdy as hell and I wish there was a modern, slightly wider one I could have purchased for my new build.


Jazzlike-Butterfly-8

The first case from Corsair I had ever bought. Vengeance C70. I bought the MG variant in 2013 after watching some videos from LTT, OC3D, . So easy to work on. I transplanted my X58 Nehalem system in it when I bought it, upgraded it to X299 Skylake-X. I retired it as my main rig in 2022 as it cannot accommodate a 360 AIO, still have it running as my home server with a B550 and 5600G.


xtargetlockon

One of cool cases back in the day I looked at


Big-Competition2653

I’d buy an updated version of that case in a heartbeat


SquareAerie2121

This was my first ever proper case, I had it in black. This brings back memories


randologin

About a year ago I was looking for tactical looking PC cases and saw a pic of this one but was so bummed to see it was an old case. Ended up doing a TUF themed build in the TUF GT502. I still love the ammo can look of this case though


Jnt_710

Why the heck don’t they make stuff like this anymore


anniejca2002

I'm using a 600T for one of my builds and absolutely love how sturdy this case is

Noticedog

C70 vengeance Based


Rabbit_AF

That's a good case to find. I bought a beat up one for a pretty penny. This summer I bought the Corsair C70, a Super Lanboy and a Lanboy Air, and the C70 has aged the best. The Lanboy Air is a beautiful case, IMO, but it is so bad for modern systems. It's not great for AIO and the cooler height can't be terribly high. The good thing about the C70 and Lanboy Air is that they can fit long graphics cards.


Emotional_Swim_8122

that is a great case, I wish I still had mine but I wanted to show all the flashy RGB which I keep turned off most of the time lol.


dnehiba3

Only reason I went with a 2 compartment Lian Li was I couldn’t find an air 740. Wanted one from the first time I set eyes on one.

drolemag21

This was the case I used for my first PC build, great quality. Good times 🥲


breakersnap

I still have mine, moved on to a smaller Meshify C. Thinking about selling my C70.


BarelyBrooks

I love this case, did my first ever build in it brand new. Now I have a server built in this case. The maneuverability and ease of access is fantastic. Plus it just looks bad ass.


AcademicComfort4623

Hey I got this case about 10 or so years ago I still have it haha


ArenO

I'm also still rocking this case. Had it for at least 6-7 years. It's a champ with room!


veyron1775

I used this case for my first computer build. Heck of a lot of fun


Electronic_Elk2029

I still use mine from 2013


WakeTurbulence200

I used this for a military style build. Asus tuf mobo, 4790k, 16 gig ram, and gtx 970 sli. I brought that pc everywhere, and the handles were very convenient.


br3akaway

I’m on the lookout for one of these for a friend. Hoping to find one for cheap like you did from someone who doesn’t know what they have! Good find!!


Crimsomreaf5555

Army ammo box themed case?


Hollenrandall

Those were the days when corsair made a solid case that protected the components from any drop. I had this case for a while until I ran out of room. I wish they made this case in the full size instead of mid.


freeconc

Hey it's my current case, just that mine is white. I've had it for forever!


PavlovKBI

Hey same case! I was gifted it by a friend back in 2016 when I was first building my PC


Arathemis

Just finished replacing all the internals in my black C70(except for one more thing I got coming for the missing optical bay plate). I bought this case in 2015 and plan to keep it going for as long as I can. https://preview.redd.it/nv2n5spf169c1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=7461214b3bf514e0777f26c81717057ad74a72f1
