Corsair Obsidian 800D

Designed for Years of Performance

The Obsidian Series™ 800D is built to last through years of motherboard, power, memory, cooling, and component upgrades.

The steel structure has a matte black coating both inside out and is finished with a brushed aluminum faceplate for a professional look that’s both serious and awe-inspiring. A windowed side panel makes it easy to show off your work.

Three Isolated Cooling Zones

The power supply compartment, main compartment and the SATA bays each have dedicated cooling subsystems to prevent heat buildup.

A dust-filtered 140mm fan draws in cold air at the bottom of the chassis and exhausts it at the rear and top. This clever design forces fresh air directly over the graphics card and CPU. The SATA hot-swap bays are cooled by a separate 140mm fan which vents from the chassis via a sealed chamber and prevents the heat generated by the drives from entering the main compartment. The power supply compartment has its own dedicated intake and exhaust, also isolated from the main compartment.

Need even more cooling performance? The Obsidian Series 800D has pre-drilled support for top-mounted single, dual, and triple radiators, or up to three additional 120mm fans.

Advanced Features for Extreme Flexibility

A four-drive SATA hot-swap drive bay sits in the front of the case, making it easier to install or swap hard drives on the fly. A unique cable routing system virtually eliminates cable clutter that can impede airflow. The tool-free design allows for easy entry, easy access, and quick installation of 5.25” drives.

Features include

• Four easily accessed hot-swap drive bays
• Removable CPU backplate panel for easy heatsink installation
• Isolated cooling zones prevent heat buildup
• Unique cable routing holes guarantee a clean and clutter-free installation
• Three fans included, with the ability to add four more 120mm fans
• Tool-free optical drive installation makes building a system faster than ever
• Two year warranty with Corsair’s world-class customer service and technical support

Awards and Reviews

HardwareCanucks.com - September, 2009 Hardware Canucks gives the Obsidian Series 800D their "Dam Good" award Unique and well researched design that gives users what they have always wanted. Unbeatable cable management, with grommet placement and paths that would typically require time and case modification.

PC Games Hardware - August, 2009 The Obsidian 800D is a Top Product winner at PC Games Hardware The corsair Obsidian 800d doesn't have any big weaknesses and offers a lot of detail solutions. A water cooling system and an army of hard drives aren't a problem either. The cooling performance is good and the possibility to put cables out of sight shouldn't make only modders happy. Therefore the Corsair Obsidian 800D receives our Top Product Award.

TweakTown - August, 2009 Tweak Town gives the 800D their highest honor The Bottom Line: Endless options, sleek looks and thebest thought out overall design I have had my hands on. This makes the Corsair Obsidian 800D the right choice for any build.

Hexus - August, 2009 Hexus finds the Obsidian 800D worthy of their Innovation Award When Corsair set out to make its first chassis, it clearly aimed big - and the Obsidian Series 800D is mammoth. Its features are plentiful, and practically everything is provided in excess quantities.

TweakTown - June, 2009 Tweak Town gives a video preview of the Obsidian Series 800D Chassis It was evident after meeting with Corsair for only a short while today at their Computex suite that the once memory only company is really spreading its wings and diversifying into new markets with a mix of new products which move far away from PC memory and power supplies.

Hexus - June, 2009 Hexus gets a video tour of the Obsidian Series 800D Chassis Parm talks to Corsair's Rob Pearce about the rather sexy stuff they are doing that ISN'T memory...

HardOCP - June, 2009 HardOCP gets up close and personal with the Obsidian Series 800D Chassis Not only is that case sexy as hell, it has some really cool features for water cooling enthusiast and case modders.
