Corsair obsidian 1000d builds9/12/2023 So like the 500D you get those fantastic hinged doors, they're just twice as big now but thankfully still removable. The 1000D follows the styling of the 500D, which is a good thing as I really liked that case, it's got a bit more character than the Obsidian models that came before it. The reason for the massive increase in weight is largely due to the inclusion of tempered glass panels as Corsair has wrapped not just the sides but also the front of the case in glass, ohh and there's a neat little strip on top as well. Forget about your back, what's the structural integrity of your desk like? The 900D was also incredibly heavy at 18.6kg, but brace yourself because the 1000D has packed on the kilos and is almost 60% heavier at a whopping 28.5kgs. That makes the 1000D roughly 30% larger than the 900D and that was a comically large computer case. ![]() The case measures 693mm long, 697mm deep and 307mm tall giving it a volume of 148 liters. ![]() The 1000D is the new flagship case from Corsair and it's expected to cost $500 which is a lot, but for a case of this caliber is surprisingly reasonable. This has now been replaced with a flat glass panel which doesn't look nearly as sleek but would allow for greater air-flow, so it's likely more practical in that sense. I assume there was some kind of production issue with the front glass panel which showed curved edges in the leaked photos. I'm actually surprised this didn't happen sooner as I agreed to the 1000D embargo with Corsair back in December, but due to various issues the release has been pushed back until now. Some of you might have caught wind of this super-tower a few months ago when Corsair and Amazon accidently leaked information about the upcoming case. 'CoffeeRipper' will be a special build housing both an 8700K gaming rig along with a 1950X workstation, now that's the stuff of dreams. Did we mention this super-tower can fit two desktop systems? I suppose given the size that's hardly surprising. We recently received the brand-new Corsair Obsidian Series 1000D super-tower case, so watch above as Steve installs the foundations for a mega build he's calling CoffeeRipper.
