Corsair Carbide Air 740 Cube Chassis Review

A Closer Look – Exterior


The first thing you’ll notice about the Air 740 is that it is big, it’s a dual chamber ATX chassis, so it stands as tall as a typical mid-tower, but it’s nice and long, and pretty darn wide. This isn’t a bad thing though, all that space means lots of room for sexy hardware on the interior. Even better, there’s plenty of opportunity to show it all off, thanks to a huge side panel window.

The right side panel is a durable metal panel, with a ventilated section that features a magnetic dust filter on the interior. This vent is for the PSU, which mounts on its side in the right side chamber of the chassis.

The front panel is pretty bold in terms of design, there’s so much airflow design here that the whole thing almost looks like an industrial air filter, and to some degree, it pretty much is. There are huge fins on the front, and lots of ventilated and filtered fan/radiator space running the full height of the chassis.

The I/O panel is compact but packs dual USB 3.0, HD audio jacks, the usual power buttons and a lighting control button.

Around the back, you can really appreciate the width of the design. There’s a 140mm fan pre-installed as the main exhaust, although you can install a 120mm solution if you wish.

The left windowed side panel is mounted on lift-off hinges, for quick and easy access, although the right panel is mounted with thumbscrews, as it’s not like you’ll need in that side as often.

Further down, an ATX PSU mount, and eight full-size expansion slots; perfect for a multi-GPU configuration.

The top panel continues that super aggressive airflow design of the front panel, with more fins, more mesh filtering; perfect for top mounted fans and radiators.

Don’t think the base is missing out either, with more aggressive fins and filters, as well as four rubber coated feet to keep it firmly in place on your desk.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
