Conclusion

General   + -
With the Obsidian Series 750D, Corsair managed to build a big tower case with a well thought and spacious interior. In the top you can for example place a triple radiator and when you remove the hard drive cages, there is space for another dual radiator in the front or in the bottom. Talking about the front, we noticed, that it's impossible to install a 360 millimeter rad here. There are just about two to three centimeters missing. We would have preferred to have this option but only two instead of three 5.25 inch drive bay.
Overall the 750D offers a lot of opportunities. Regarding the fans, we would like to see models with four pin connectors everywhere and not only in the back. Apart from that it would be nice if there was a simple fan controller, which lets users select between 5V, 7V and 12V.

Manufacturing quality / Ergonomics   + -
Build quality with this case is on a really good level. For example, Corsair didn't hopelessly save weight on the side panels. Furthermore putting all the components in place, is very comfortable, since there is plenty of space everywhere. Very practical, that's what all the rubber covered cut outs are, since you can route cables exactly where you would like them to. Apart from that there is the huge cut out behind the motherboard, which allows the installation of aftermarket coolers when the motherboard is already in place.   - Build quality
- Interior Space
 
       
Design   + -
The Obsidian 750D is quite a big case but it isn't gigantic like the 900D. The finish of the front is well done. We like its looks, the hairline brushed aluminium plates give it a timeless touch. Overall the design is very pleasing and the case would look decent on, as well as underneath a desk. We would even go to the point to say, that installing a 5.25 inch drive would ruin the looks of the front.   - Design  
       
Recommendation   + -
Should you be looking for a big tower case with decent design, which even features a very reasonable price tag of 159.99 US-Dollar, then you will definitely do everything right choosing this case.   - Gaming-PC
- Desktop PC
 
 
Rating
The Corsair Obsidian Series 750D gets very good 4.5 out of 5 stars.
