00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,040
when I met with Corsair at PAX Prime 2016 they posed a challenge they told me

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:10,360
that they had seen my review of the fantex andu Evolve TG and knew that I

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:15,400
plan to use it for my personal rig update which is coming by the way I have

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:18,880
all the internal components now I'm just waiting on a few things for the actual

5
00:00:17,080 --> 00:00:22,920
mod cuz I want to kind of do it all together they claimed that they had a

6
00:00:21,080 --> 00:00:29,480
new case for me something that would win me over from the Evolve TG the Corsair

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:33,399
570x that was a big statement I love the evolve but they seemed genuinely

8
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:37,239
confident so I decided to give them a chance and spoiler alert it is a

9
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:41,360
wonderful case but I'm not going to actually spoil the big ending just yet

10
00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:45,360
for that reason I will give it the same treatment that I gave the evolved TG I'm

11
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:57,320
going to be rather hard on it but out of love instead of hate let's

12
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:04,680
begin the Phoenix otor is a full siiz minimalist designed keyboard complete

13
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:08,720
with goldplated Cherry MX Brown switches click the link in the video description

14
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:13,799
to learn more immediately upon setting your eyes on the 570x you'll likely be

15
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:20,240
momentarily stunned while the reason for your state slowly Dawns on you that

16
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:23,000
glass she's got all that glass both

17
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:27,320
sides the top the front they feature all-encompassing glass panels held on by

18
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:31,119
delicately padded bolts that are inserted into rubber wrapped female

19
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:36,000
thread points damn the top of the case features your

20
00:01:33,320 --> 00:01:40,240
IO with two black usb3 ports a headphone and microphone Jack and a solid power

21
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:46,920
button with white back lighting along with color speed and mode buttons to

22
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:49,640
control the three included RGB fans that

23
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:57,360
are in the front of the case this is pretty awesome and I like the idea here

24
00:01:52,799 --> 00:01:59,920
but the follow through not quite so much

25
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:05,719
remember I'm being hard on the case Odo of love the power button led doesn't syn

26
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:11,120
with what the fans are doing it's just a static white LED and the same more

27
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:18,720
importantly goes with the Corsair logo LED on the side of the power supply

28
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:20,319
basement it's not a huge deal but still

29
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:25,120
if they had all sink together through Corsair's RGB controller it would have

30
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:29,000
added an extra layer of polished which would have been very nice moving to the

31
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:33,239
inside of the case I understand that they may have left the right hand side

32
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:37,959
open to facilitate the installation of thick radiators in the front or other

33
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:43,879
water cooling components like Pomer reservoirs I'm not a huge fan of the

34
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:49,560
move I'm trying to hide the cable mess man not show it off again this is out of

35
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:54,879
love but where's the optional cover piece that I could screw in from the

36
00:02:51,959 --> 00:02:59,840
kind of top here most people probably won't have anything to the right of the

37
00:02:56,879 --> 00:03:04,239
motherboard there are no Drive mounts or or anything like that and if you're not

38
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:09,400
doing custom water cooling then it's probably an empty space cuz you'll put

39
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:11,640
your AI in the top one that I don't mind

40
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:15,640
completely but one that certainly would look dumb with cables poking out of it

41
00:03:14,159 --> 00:03:19,599
moving to the top of the case for a moment we have the expected mounting

42
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:24,599
points for the easy installation of an all-in-one water cooling radiator remove

43
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:30,080
these two thumb screws below it and just you know slide it out nice this is a

44
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:34,799
huge thing for me enabling the use to fuss with the insulation of their

45
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:37,640
radiator away from the cumbersome case

46
00:03:34,799 --> 00:03:42,000
is great but what isn't great here is the implementation of the filter you

47
00:03:40,439 --> 00:03:45,840
unfortunately have to remove the glass on the top of a case in order to access

48
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:50,760
it I think this could have been made easier by allowing it to slide out of

49
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:54,480
the back or even maybe from the side although that might have required a

50
00:03:52,079 --> 00:03:58,439
change in how the glass works so probably not that brings us to the right

51
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:02,720
side of the case which is a big challenge for any glass or open style PC

52
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:08,159
en closure so how are they hiding the messy stuff first up here we have two

53
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:12,799
easy to ous squeeze Mount 2.5 in trays that will put your ssds on display which

54
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:16,919
is pretty awesome the cables need only short runs down to the power supply area

55
00:04:14,959 --> 00:04:21,160
which is not bad either the plug-in location for the Corsair RGB fan power

56
00:04:19,239 --> 00:04:24,800
hub is just to the left and feels like a solid compromise between cable

57
00:04:22,639 --> 00:04:29,800
management and positioning as it is centrally located meaning that you can

58
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:34,600
reach it at all which is good it managed is up to six fans the three included

59
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:40,759
sp120 RGB fans in the front and up to three more sp120 RGB fans that's right

60
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:46,639
only those this Hub is not compatible with hd120 RGB

61
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:50,880
fans The Hub runs up to a control box that for most people will do nothing

62
00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:55,639
since pressing buttons on the top is a lot easier than taking off a glass panel

63
00:04:53,400 --> 00:05:01,160
just to adjust the mode or color or speed of your fans but it can function

64
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:06,759
Standalone if you take the top panel off for some reason then we have the hard

65
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:11,560
drive Trace Corsair opted to have them sort of upside down that is showing the

66
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:15,199
bottom of the drive this will make them easier to install and make it so that

67
00:05:13,639 --> 00:05:20,919
your SATA cables don't have to squish against the wall but it will also leave

68
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:23,319
you probably showing off a green PCB

69
00:05:20,919 --> 00:05:26,240
that now I'm guessing here probably doesn't go along with the aesthetic of

70
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:32,960
your build especially if you're getting a glass case not ideal but I probably be

71
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:36,199
standing here complaining about the difficulty of mounting a drive that is

72
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:41,000
flat mounted against the wall if they did it the other way so I guess that

73
00:05:39,319 --> 00:05:45,560
sucks to be Corsair there was no completely right answer here bringing us

74
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:49,919
finally to the cable management bar when I first laid My Eyes Upon This

75
00:05:47,319 --> 00:05:54,000
Magnificent piece of metal I was filled with excitement so this is how they

76
00:05:52,000 --> 00:06:01,520
decided to solve the cable management issue of a see-through case brilliant in

77
00:05:57,479 --> 00:06:03,560
theory in practice not not entirely the

78
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:08,039
sheer girth of the cables that need to RAM up into its passage in order to

79
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:12,120
plunge through the rubber grommets into the motherboard

80
00:06:09,319 --> 00:06:16,720
compartment I think it's just more than she can handle even with our relatively

81
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:20,880
standard setup of Hardware John had to screw it from one side while I held it

82
00:06:19,039 --> 00:06:25,080
down and offered some encouragement from the other I mean high- five for

83
00:06:22,759 --> 00:06:29,120
collaboration but not everyone will have such a good and trusted friend around

84
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:33,880
when they need to put the finishing touches on their build leaving with

85
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:39,880
nothing left but to dive tired yet satisfied into the conclusion the

86
00:06:35,919 --> 00:06:42,160
Corsair 570x is priced at $170 right in

87
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:46,880
range with the enthu Evolve TG whose price varies a bit based on what color

88
00:06:44,759 --> 00:06:51,080
you choose and whatnot the fight is close and honestly just comes down to

89
00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:55,479
some preference differences personally I'm going to stick with my evolve TG but

90
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:58,720
only because I already planned my mod for it and I don't want to make any more

91
00:06:57,199 --> 00:07:02,960
decisions on this rig I don't want to decide between the two of them I just

92
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:07,199
want to get my personal rig done the mod parts are being shipped right now

93
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:12,120
anyways what do you guys think about the 57x let me know down below if you aren't

94
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:16,400
familiar with massop already they're a community where users discuss products

95
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:21,280
that they're interested in buying and then mastop follows that up talks to the

96
00:07:18,319 --> 00:07:27,240
manufacturer and negotiates a bulk order at a discounted price today mastop is

97
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,960
