#5000D AIRFLOW PC#

If you're fully using SSDs/PCIe storage, then you can just remove the 3.5' housing and it won't matter. The 5000X has a glass front panel with openings on the sides. My power cables are able to bend up and over the housing, but only just barely, it's much tighter fit than it ought to be. The front panel on the 5000D is that plastic mesh for more airflow.

A steel front panel and three included CORSAIR AF120. One other issue: the housing for 3.5' hard drives butts up a bit too close to the back of the power supply, especially if you have a larger power supply (mine is a Corsair 850W). The CORSAIR 5000D RGB AIRFLOW is a mid-tower ATX case with high-airflow design and exceptional cooling. None of this would be necessary if not for the superfluous side fan slots. The CORSAIR 5000D RGB AIRFLOW is a mid-tower ATX case with high-airflow design, three included CORSAIR AF120 RGB ELITE fans providing exceptional cooling for your components. The 'cable guard' also butts up uncomfortably close to the edge of my GPU (it's touching an exposed radiator). I finished switching my system to a 5000d Airflow but have been struggling to put the alternate psu shroud into place. What you need to do is to thread everything through a pair of rectangular cable cutouts next to the motherboard, but this will require removing the rubber things that come mounted on the cutouts, because they get in the way of thick power cables. I removed it, thinking I would throw it out, but once I was all finished with my setup I realized the airflow leakage problem I'd created, and had disassemble almost everything to get it back in. A minimalist solid steel front panel offers superb durability and sharp looks, with dedicated ventilation channels for ample airflow.

You can remove it to get it out of the way, but it's an incredible pain to get it in and out. The 5000D makes a stunning, showpiece-worthy PC easy to build, and even easier to keep cool with the space and flexibility to mount multiple 360mm radiators. It does help covering up some loose cables from visibility, but it sits tight up against the motherboard and leaves a crevice too narrow for threading thick power cables. Corsair addresses this leak issue with a metal sheet (a 'cable guard'), that sits between the two sets of fan slots, but I *despise* that cable guard. I don't see how it adds anything to the fan slots in the front (would you really populate all six fan slots?), and it creates a problem of air intake from the front potentially leaking out the unoccupied fan slots on the side, which are directly adjacent. This is a detailed setup guide where I'll show you how I installed 12 fans, push/pull setup on the H150i Elite Capellix.

This is a super long and detailed video on the Corsair 5000D Airflow case.
