About this deal

To watch the launch video for the CORSAIR Crystal Series 680X RGB and the CORSAIR Carbide Series 678C, please visit: There is more than enough pure cooling power available due to the built-in radiators and the fans should also be more than suitable for this. Even if the components generate a lot of waste heat, we should get this under control with this and with almost inaudible fans.

A 360mm Radiator and 240mm radiator will fit top and front, but you have to mount your fans on the inner side, and room for pipe runs is very limited, especially if you plan on mounting the XD5 on the front. If you do happen to go for front and top mounted radiators, you will find that you will have limited mounting choices for your XD5. Intelligent Control, Unlimited Possibilities: An included CORSAIR Lighting Node PRO turns the 680X RGB into a smart case, powered by CORSAIR iCUE software that brings your system to life with dynamic RGB lighting synchronized across all your iCUE compatible products, including fans, RGB LED light strips, DDR4 memory, keyboards, mice and more. A vertical GPU mount puts your graphics card center stage, perfect for showing off custom GPU cooling or your latest upgrade. Founded in 1994, CORSAIR has grown from pioneering the high-performance DRAM market into one of the world’s leading providers of high-performance PC peripherals and components. CORSAIR offers a complete range of products to equip gamers, enthusiasts and e-sports athletes, including mechanical keyboards, precision gaming mice, wireless headsets, high-performance components that gamers use to build gaming PCs, and the CORSAIR ONE fully-integrated gaming PC. With a company-wide commitment to quality, innovative design, advanced features and high performance, CORSAIR products have won thousands of media and industry awards, earning their place in gamers’ hands and PCs following years of development and engineering by a team dedicated to building great products they themselves would want to use. As you can see a vertically mounted GPU is essential if using the XG7, and front mounted XD5. The GPU and Pump/Res will overlap.Three tool-free 3.5” drive mounts in a modular drive cage: Installed from the rear, the cage can be removed entirely And now for the sad part, I don't think I flushed my radiators well enough and didn't bother flushing with a pump or filtration system before installing them, and now I believe my XG7 and XC7 are acting as filters for whatever was left in the radiators. The LL120 RGB fans can be individually controlled with a wide range of animations and colors, static as well as off.

Included Lighting Node PRO: This turns the 680X into a smartcase and allows you to control and synchronize RGB lighting through iCUE software across all iCUE compatible products including fans, RGB LED light strips, DDR4 memory, keyboards, mice and more. Custom builds needn’t be cluttered - a distinctive dual-chamber design makes it incredibly easy to assemble an immaculate system that keeps cables tidy and out of view.I more or less went the route of the "reference build guide" for the 680X. You can see the photos below, I didn't have room for the XD5 pump in the main chamber mainly because of the front XR5 360mm radiator. I ended up putting the XD5 in the "ugly" side of the case (realized I should have maybe used a 45° fitting on the outlet after I filled the loop, also cable management wasn't done at the time of the photo). To learn more about the CORSAIR Crystal Series 680X RGB and the CORSAIR Carbide Series 678C, please visit: The 678C’s refined styling belies its massive cooling and storage options, which are among the most impressive of any CORSAIR ATX case. With room to install up to nine 120mm fans and multiple radiators, including dual 360mm radiators, the 678C can accommodate a wealth of custom cooling to match the highest spec systems. A modular drive bay system allows the 678C to host a huge array of storage and accessories, with room for up to 1x 5.25in drive, 6x 3.5in and 3x 2.5in drives, and the potential to add a further 2x 3.5in drives with additional trays. Also, I am planning on using soft tubing, only because it is my first build and I want to make it easier on myself, and I believe it allows for a little wiggle room here and there.

The CORSAIR Crystal Series 680X RGB is a dual-chamber tempered glass ATX smart case that keeps your system running cool with room for up to eight fans and four radiators, including one 360mm. Enjoy superb airflow and brilliant RGB lighting from three LL120 RGB fans, controlled by an included CORSAIR Lighting Node PRO and powered by iCUE software. Show off a stunning view of your PC’s components with three tempered glass panels on the front, roof, and hinged side door, while an optional vertical GPU mount allows you to put your graphics card center stage. Make your next custom build incredibly easy and undeniably cool with the 680X RGB.I recently did my first ever custom loop in my 680X, I came across a few fitting issues during my first attempt, but you can see my final result below. Reference build guides present maximum radiator configuration with reference design graphics cards. As a build guide it's showing the most complex build for targeted case. Any other variation will be less complex / easier to build. Flexible Storage Options: Easily install up to 3x 3.5in and 4x 2.5in drives in tool-free drive mounts, for high-capacity, flexible storage configurations.
