Swapping the 750D front panel for the 450D one. Is it possible?

Title says it all really. I have a 750D, which I am more than happy with on the whole, but I have a few issues with the front panel on the thing:

 

1) while normally I'd go for the sleek stylings of the 750D panel, for this specific build I need something more... 'Industrial' looking. The 450D panel would be perfect.

 

2) I don't want to get into a debate with anyone about airflow. I more than sure the airflow in the 750D is fine. However, more airflow wouldn't be a bad thing for my own plans.

 

So my question is simple, will the 450D panel fit the 750D? And if so are Corsair selling it separately?

 

Thanks

It looks like it should, but checking the figures the 750D is 66 mm higher and 25 mm wider so my money would be on no. Nice thought though.

 

meh...

 

Well that sucks. I know the 750D is a larger case overall, just thought the designers at Corsair would have been smart enough to design their range to be more interchangeable.

 

Oh well, back to trying to lobby Corsair to provide a 450D type front for the 750D. I'd buy one... hell two just to ensure they do it. The 750D would look so much better with that sort of panel.

I would wait a bit before getting the MNPCTECH panel. Corsair is testing a replacement front panel for the 750D right now and, if it works out, it should be out before too much longer. Hopefully, it will have more airflow than this one.
