Red/White/Black Beast: In the new Corsair 450D!


Recommended Posts

I was graciously gifted a Corsair 450D for testing, as well as a new Corsair H105 to put in as well. I was also provided a full red/black/white sleeved set for my V1000 by reddit user Jappetto!

 

This is mostly just a case transplant, but it's going to be my main for a while. I've always wanted something like a 350D or 750D, but they were too small/big for me...so the 450D is perfect!

Wow looks great! I must ask what is that keyboard setup you have there? The red cable with the white led backlights looks great. PM me if forum rules disallow you posting the name

 

No problem at all, The keyboard is a new model KBT Race II w/ Cherry MX Blues + White LED, the cable is a specially sleeved cable from Pexon PCs

Looks great! Did you have to do anything special to fit the H105 in the case? I was under the impression that it wouldn't fit.

 

Hi same here, read that it will not fit in that case...

And as I am interested by both the case and the H105 for my next build, I am also willing to know what has to be done to make them good pals !

I just bought a 450D Corsair Case and a H105 Corsair Radiator... I hope it will fit together. I heard that it dépends on the mobo, and i notice you have changed the fans of the H105.

 

So I ordered 2 thin fans just to be sure it will fit. Pictures to come, IF it fits together with my Maximus Vii Hero Mobo.

Was there an extensive amount of cutting required on the cable to get the h105 and the Hero to sit well inside of the 450D? I've been considering that setup for a couple weeks and was wondering if it was reasonably doable after first hearing that the 105 will not go in the 450d

Has anybody tried, fitting an Asus Maximus VII Formula and a Hydro H105 into that case? I assume, it could be even harder than with the Hero because it has a larger heatsink at the CPU socket.

 

@ Berzerker

btw, nice work on that system!
