Introduction
I would like to thank
Corsair for supplying the review sample.
The Corsair Carbide 600C and 600Q employ the same chassis body, but are intended for two different scenarios. While the 600C comes with a large side window, the Q variant is for the silent enthusiast since it has nothing but solid panels. Having reviewed many Corsair enclosures in the past, the 600C, which is the variant we have with us today, sure aims to deliver the quality and functionality we have come to love from them. Let us dive right in to find out if it actually does.

Packaging
The Corsair Carbide 600C ships in a brown cardboard package with an image of the chassis and some marketing text on front. Turn the box around and you will find a blow-up diagram and some additional information on the chassis. Both sides of the package hold a list of specifications and two more images of the chassis.
Two Styrofoam spacers hold the enclosure in place, and a cloth bag has been put over the chassis to protect it from scratches and fingerprints.
