x509 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 :D: So I read somewhere that Corsair would be announcing this case "in October." Well, it's now October 33rd. :laughing: and no announcement. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 That somewhere may have just estimated and made up the announcement time. Just keep watching the Corsair Facebook page or the website and wait until you see a 900D pop-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep watching the Corsair Facebook page or the website and wait until you see a 900D pop-up. Sure, and it may have been someone just trolling, or maybe wishful thinking. Only for me, I need to put together a system for my wife in a month, and I was hoping to use my 700D for her system, so I would then "need" a 900D. :D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaapstad Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I have also got most of the bits for a new build and am waiting on the 900D. I think a little information from Corsair as to when its going to be available would do no harm. It might even increase their sales because at the moment there are people like me who are buying nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratosrally Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 It has always been their policy not to comment on future products. They have their reasons, as do most manufacturers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dheophe Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I just bought my 800D and feel little depress when I know there is new 900D in near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveliddle Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 there are alleged reviews and images on the net, if it is to be believed, then it is a big case with a lot of storage possibilities, not posting links as my chinese is not very good and people should know how to use search engines :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x509 Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 there are alleged reviews and images on the net, if it is to be believed, then it is a big case with a lot of storage possibilities, not posting links as my chinese is not very good and people should know how to use search engines :) My Chinese is probably worse than yours. :roll: But at least one of the postings (in English :biggrin: ) said that the 900D would be released in October. Of cours, they might have meant October, 2013! I don't blame Corsair for not providing any info. Any info they provide becomes the de facto product announcement. And yes, the Osborne Effect is very real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted November 6, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted November 6, 2012 Guys we are sorry but that information on the 900D was released before it was ready to be announced by a third party. The case has not had an official press announcement and until that happens there is not a lot we can do or say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratosrally Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I'll try to dig up the old USMC base newspaper article from 29 Palms, CA showing me in my civvies skating the huge drainage ditches. From back in '84, no less... Sleeveless Powell "RatBones" t-shirt, bleach-spotted jeans, checkered Vans slip-ons, and hand-painted Vuarnet sunglasses. Those were the days!

Binary Poet Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I also am about to pull the trigger on a new case, but wanted to look at this thing first. Currently have the 700D and love it, but can't get parts for it anywhere.... Any better ideas if we will even see this one come out and if so when?

wytnyt Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I just bought my 800D and feel little depress when I know there is new 900D in near future. gives you a good reason to build 2 instead of one,i started out with intentions of just one.went to 4 but currently using 3.but thinking of another to build,,i just need to convince myself i need it .:D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x509 Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 Currently have the 700D and love it, but can't get parts for it anywhere.... Which parts? I think the 800D USB 3 front panel kit should work on a 700D. Any better ideas if we will even see this one come out and if so when? If I knew, would I be posting the first message in this thread? :roll: :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omikurita Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Wow.. Really.. Just as I'm about to buy the Switch 810, Godzilla slaps me around.. When is it being released ??? just got my Raystorm RX360 and a 240. Damn it Jim! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is it being released ??? just got my Raystorm RX360 and a 240. Damn it Jim! I'm reusing an old Antec P180 for my wife's new build, so I can buy some time. Once the 900D is available, I will move her build into my 700D and install the guts of my current system into a 900D.;): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was waiting for the 900..., if they were smart they would have done it before x-mas, so my guess is it was cancelled...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not cancelled, but as anyone involved in any aspect of product development knows all too well, products are often behind schedule and over budget. By the way, today is October 64th. :D: So much for that rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTXJackBauer Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 lol......and today its Dec 9th ......... I would've loved to get my hands on a 900D beside my 800D. Well I guess it will be some time to save for one since I blew alot thanks to black week. I wish I knew the price range to so I could see if I'am able to pull a few strings for it. aaaarrrrg My guess is $300-$450 Price range 4-6 months from now. Corsair if I'am right can I please have one :D I promise I'll make it look pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
