Introduction

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


The FSP M580 Plus managed to turn some heads during Computex this year due to its single piece curved glass. Available in black or white, FSP is even offering the chassis with two fan setup options. One being the FSP M580-BA or WA (which stands for black/white and ARGB) which sports three reverse bladed ARGB fans on the side and one traditional on the back. Then there is the M580 Plus, with a model number M580-BP or WP, which also ships with a similar fan layout, but provides high-speed 30 mm thick, daisy-chained units which have detachable sleeved cables and even individual RPM displays, along with the usual ARGB elements. If that reads like a long list of unique attributes in a fan, it is. We have the black M580 Plus with that unique setup for review.

Specifications

Packaging

FSP ships the M580 Plus in a brown box with white print. This is a pretty effective way to keep the cost down, but still differentiate itself from the sea of brown and black packaging out there. In the front, you'll find an image of the enclosure and the model name, while the back has a simple blow-up diagram. Both sides are pretty bare as FSP does not include a specifications table. As there are two different color SKUs of this model, there is a sticker on one of the sides to let you know which one is within the package.


Two pretty thin Styrofoam spacers are protecting the chassis. These actually have a little bit of play and some small components like screws have created indentations, so it seems like these are not made for this specific chassis. Nevertheless, our case arrived in good condition. A plastic bag has been used to further protect the M580 Plus from scratches and fingerprints.
