MidnightNarwhal Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 So on the corsair website regarding each case there is measurements for the cases but how is it laid out? WxHxD or something elsE? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper69 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 It's HxWxD, or at least it is for the 900D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 LxWxH is the common US labeling system, but there is no standard and different industries use variations to suit their needs. I would be careful about assuming the Corsair site is standardized at all. My Air 540 is definitely listed as Depth (length) x Width x Height. The problem is which side is "length", "width", and "height". Besides differing visual perspectives, you have different language or cultural customs as well adding to the confusion. As has been requested many a time before, the main website needs diagrams. Math is a lot harder to misinterpret. Besides being useful, most tech orientated people like these things (see:Marketing). Your best bet is to find another source(s) that displays the measurements in a more readable way and compare. Easy enough on some towers, but the boxier ones can be tricky to interpret from angled photographs. You can try newegg.com No diagrams unless the manufacturer provides them, but the dimensions are clearly labeled. Some professional reviewers of the specific case may have taken the time to create a layout. If in total distress, ask about a specific case here. Surely someone will be kind enough to fill in the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapper69 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 You could alway ask Corsair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 He could, but I worry he would just receive a link to the product page or the same non-descriptive number sequence back. We know diagrams are not available through Corsair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
