Introduction

I would like to thank Corsair for supplying the review sample.


The Corsair Carbide 678C is the company's latest silent chassis, featuring an updated interior and quiet the unusual feature set for a case of this type. It tries to combine enthusiast-grade features, but is still branded as a silent option. Available in both black and white, with a glass side panel, we got the black one for review today.

Specifications

Packaging

Corsair ships the Carbide 678C in their usual brown cardboard box with an image of the chassis on one side and a blow-up diagram of the case on the other. Both smaller panels list the specifications, and a sticker lets you know which color version of the enclosure is inside. Carrying holes make lugging the box home easier.


Three thick Styrofoam spacers protect the chassis and the glass panel specifically. My review sample was apparently dropped during transport as one of the spacers was smashed up out of the box, but thankfully, it did its job as the Carbide 678C remained unharmed.
