Corsair Chassis 3500X RGB Tempered Glass Mid-Tower, Black

About Corsair Chassis 3500X RGB Black Cabinet

At first glance, the 3500X impresses with its wraparound tempered-glass front and side panels — giving you a clean, immersive view of your internal build. The glass panels are easily removable, giving you quick access during assembly or upgrades. The steel chassis ensures structural integrity, even with large hardware installed.

Despite its mid-tower size, the 3500X offers roomy compatibility with large and powerful hardware. It supports motherboards up to E-ATX (305 × 277 mm), GPUs up to ~425 mm long, CPU coolers up to 170 mm tall, and standard ATX power supplies up to ~180 mm. So if you plan on building a high-end gaming PC or workstation — with beefy GPUs or air-cooled towers — this case can accommodate them cleanly.

On the cooling side, the 3500X is quite versatile. It supports multiple radiator configurations — including 360 mm radiators on the side or top — making it suitable for custom water-cooling loops or large AIO coolers. Fan mounting options are flexible too: top, side, bottom, and rear fans can be installed to optimize airflow depending on your component layout.

For users who want a ready-to-build case out of the box, Corsair includes three RS120 ARGB 120 mm fans, pre-installed and ready for use. These lend out-of-the-box cooling and add ARGB lighting for aesthetic flair, giving the entire build a polished and modern look.

Another important aspect is the attention to build convenience and cable management. Behind the motherboard tray there’s ample space for cable routing, helping keep the internals tidy and airflow optimized. This is especially beneficial when using reverse-connector motherboards (from some recent ASUS, MSI, or Gigabyte models) — the case is compatible to ensure that connectors and cables remain neatly tucked away.

Storage needs are also addressed: the 3500X features internal mounts for 2 × 3.5″ HDDs and 2 × 2.5″ SSDs, giving flexibility if you want a mix of HDD (bulk storage) and SSD (speed/storage).

For builders who like to show off their hardware, the case even offers vertical GPU mounting support — with vertical PCIe slots built in. With a riser cable (sold separately), you can mount your GPU vertically for display purposes, adding a premium, showcase-oriented aesthetic.

The front I/O panel is modern and convenient: it includes a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and a combined audio/microphone jack, along with power and reset buttons. This makes connecting peripherals, external drives, or audio gear easy and accessible from the front.

Overall, the 3500X ARGB case stands out as a well-rounded chassis that blends build convenience, hardware flexibility, strong cooling potential, and clean aesthetics. Whether it’s a high-performance gaming PC, a rendering workstation, or a build designed to showcase components — the Corsair 3500X provides the space and features to deliver, while keeping cable-management and user experience straightforward. For builders who want a modern mid-tower with good expansion and cooling headroom, this case offers excellent value and versatility.
