- Although the Corsair 5000X Tempered Glass PC Gaming Case is not exactly a new case, I wanted to show you a teardown and overview of this case. It's an amazing looking PC gaming case with great looks and lots of functionality.
I'll discuss the included RGB controllers, the Lighting node CORE and the PWM repeater in additon to giving you my thoughts and opinions.
In short, there isn't much to dislike about this case! I can recommend it!

10 months later this is still one of the best videos on this case. Well done
Seriously great work and a thorough review, , you keep it real with no bs.
Solid review my man. Respect, keep up the good work!
This is one very thorough teardown, good job!
Thanks RichD1011!! Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for the review!
detailed n informative- great for deciding amongst options for purchase of case. Thanks.
Hi store trooper, thanks for your feedback, i'm very happy you found the video helpful!! Thanks for watching!!!
I'm looking at getting this case for my next build. Thanks for your review and tips.
Got this case in black when Newegg had a sale plus rebate. Very good case.
Oh wow, I wish I found this video sooner. I'm new to building and I couldn't figure out how to move the rear fan panel. I can improve my rig now and add 3 more fans knowing this. Awesome video!
Very thorough and informative. This video helped immensely in my decision to buy this case. Thank you for making this video.
Hi UnannouncedFart(awesome handle, haha) , that's awesome, thanks for the feedback, it's a great case, have fun with the new build!!! Thanks for watching!!!
hello, I love your channel and i was hoping to get a good response on this question. For the 2 8pin power connectors intel boards require. How do you bend those cables and get clearance for the 360mm AIO? I was so afraid to flex the cable. Using an Asus Tuf z790 board, this case, Corsair iCUE H150i Elite CAPELLIX XT. Currently I have the CPU cables running along the top right side of case through the grommet to the pins. Is it possible i can bend the corsair rm1000 shift CPU cables enough to not break it then attach it?
Great video! I'd love to see a Corsair cable management build in one of their cases.
Thanks Don Fobar, I agree, that is a video idea on my list....at least to show everybody how I do cable management, when I'm not in rush. Thanks for watching and your support!!!
GREAT video. Thanks.
hello! hoping you still answer comments on this video.. i’m wanting to get this case but not necessarily ALL corsair brand cooling and rgb. once i get the case, am i stuck with corsair? or can i still put in and control whatever i want?
Thanks, man. that was very helpful. I couldn't figure out how to get the motherboard tray out because the screws for it were behind the straps
Thanks Philip Bonnici, I'm happy you found this video helpful, thanks for Watching!!!
Hello mate thanks for the video I needed to do the part at 7 minutes so thanks :)
Thanks animal165, I'm happy you found this video helpful, thanks for you support and for watching!!!
@@HardwareArtisan Anytime, thank you :)
Nice detailed video. Question if you don't mind? I'm currently doing a build with this case and 10 QL 120 fans and the new iCUE H150i ELITE LCD XT AIO. I'm thinking since the AIO comes with the Commander Core and I bought a Commander Core XT I can remove the PWM repeater and lighting node core that come in the case and control all 10 fans and their LEDs with the Commander Core and Commander Core XT?
Hi BP, yes, that is how I would do it. You gain the ability to control all the RGB and the Power/Speed control in ICUE doing it that way, along with some RGB expansion ports and Temp Probes.
Sounds like an awesome build going on! Good Luck and have Fun with it! Thanks for watching!!!
ridicolous....its way to expensive...
take arctic p12 argb fans
arctic freezer II 360 aio
you dont need the commander for this.
put 3 fans together and put it in 1 sys fan port on mb
you can do all settings from mainboard...and the rgb goes with the mainboard software in windows, on my point i use msi dragon center.
dont like the corsair rgb capelix things, all rgb components of corsair are extreme expensive and not the money worth.
Excellent! I ordered my 5000x today and your video gave me even better insight as to what to expect, good job! My biggest concern is my AIO, my current Phantex case claimed it could handle an AIO on the top with (3) 120mm fans, but I found that it's way too tight and actually covers a portion of the top of my motherboard and interferes with my ram...not good. This case looks like it will support a top mount of my 360 AIO without interfering. can you confirm that? Did you have any problems installing yours? Thanks for the helpful video!
How did your build go?
I’ve problem with monitor, I tried follow you as much as possible. The system boot up fine, I guess. But when connecting my monitor to any hdmi port either the gpu or motherboard It said not detected device on the monitor. I connected a mouse in the usb port it lighted up. So I guess something is correct but not fully. Have you encountered such a problem? What should I do?
Where's the side dust filter?
I bought a 5000D (not the 5000X depicted) and I'm a huge fan of this platform. One thing people should know - Corsair has great support, and they sell all of the parts of these cases on their website, and they sell them at reasonable prices.
Because all (or virtually all) of the parts on these 5000N cases are interchangeable, you can upgrade or redesign your case in an affordable way. So for example you could buy the vanilla 5000D, then later upgrade the top and front panel to the glass versions in the 5000X. The front panels are only $15.
I got my 5000D on sale, but it wasn't the airflow version, so I spent $15 to get the airflow front panel.
That’s awesome information, thanks iamamish!
I hate that glass front that blocks air flow.
Nice vid
I'm pretty sure this is my next case. Great review!
Thanks Harry Ape, i'm happy you found the video useful, that makes it worth doing. It is a cool case for sure!!! Thanks for watching, and your support!!!
I have this same case, 7 QL rgb 120 fans with the 3 rgb fans that came with the H150i. I also want to install Corsair light strips and the HX1000i psu. I have the Commander Core XT, how would you recommend I connect the Commander CORE XT to the Commander CORE? Also, will I be able to control all 10 fans individually having 6 fans connected to the CORE XT and the other 4 connected to the CORE? PLEASE HELP? Thank you! Love your channel!
Hi AMD Guru! That's a great question! Technically speaking there is no need to connect the CORE XT to the Commander CORE. From an iCUE perspective, it's just detects both of them individually from their USB connections.
You can connect the Commander CORE To the usb pigtail on the CORE XT to save a motherboard USB header, but this is not technically required.
Yes, with both the commander CORE and the CORE XT, you will gain individual control (RGB and SPEED) over all 10 fans. You can create custom fan curves (Or use the existing ones) and apply them to whatever fans you want.
Sounds like you have an awesome setup! Thanks for your kind feedback, that makes it worth doing videos. RGB is awesome stuff, haha!!
Don't forget to have fun! Thanks for watching!!!
@@HardwareArtisan THANKS SO MUCH!!! Because of your videos, I was able to connect all 10 rgb fans, the H150i, lighting strips and the H1000i with no problems. It went from what seemed like an impossible task to something that was very easy! Both the Commander CORE and Commander CORE XT show up and are working correctly. The psu and ram also are showing up and working correctly. I used two USB 2.0 splitters because it took 4 headers. Couldn't have done it without your help!
For anyone removing the front glass panel, make sure to support both top and bottom end when tugging it out. Mine just shattered while I was still holding it and tugging only one end. May not happen to everyone but just to be safe.
Thanks for heads up! Good advice! It sucks yours broke, fortunately the replacements aren't too pricey! Thanks for watching!!
That’s pretty cheap of them that they didn’t make the front glass panel tempered glass, at least that’s what it sounds like if it shattered that easily
Do i have to buy other fans or do they all come with the case? Looking at building a pc in this case but I’ve never done it before
Hi Willis, this case should include 3 120mm fans to get you started. Depending on your build you will need additional fans. But, if your adding an AIO for example, that will come with fans helping reduce the amount of additional fans you need, if any. Have fun with your build, hit me up on email if I can help, andrew@hardwareartisan.com. Thanks for watching!!!
You need to figure out BEFORE you put in your Rad and Mobo if you want that Cable Shroud or not. I'm having to remove everything now due to clearance the attachment arm of the top screw.
Great advice This or That! Thanks for the info!!! Thanks for watching!
I think technically this case can hold 13 fans. According to the Corsair’s video breakdown you can setup a push/pull RAD setup and 3 more fans can be put under the top glass panel. You should experiment with it!
Hi xNecropolisx100, that's a good point! Thanks for watching!!!
How much dose it cost 😕
Hallo we have a Problem fans running but no rgb do you know why?
you got even less infos???
Nice, i have this case also with 13 fans.
Awesome stuff!!!
Ho do you sync them all?
@@uzairaltaf783 its izi...
rgb goes 1x8 6fans 2 stripes on jrainbow1
and 1x8 7fans 1gpu holder on jrainbow2
and the fans goes directly to motherboard sys fan
1x 3 front
1x 3 side
1x 6 on top radiator push pull
1x 1 pump aio
1x 1 back
when you will build a good system you have to research many facts.
good motherboard is needed too...
when you dont got all these connections you have to use an fan splitter or rgb splitter...but i dont prefer this way...
Thank you so much! No one showed how to remove the stupid cable bar except you.
Agreed
Only thing I dislike is the lack of 3.5 bays.
Nice
Thanks Jesus Mesina, I appreciate the feedback, thanks for watching!!!
will be good to have a 360 view of the build
That's a good point, I will have to work on that!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Please review corsair 7000x case
Hi Abdul Rabb, I will have to add that to my list, I don't have one here to look at yet, but that's a cool case no doubt. Thanks for watching!!!
@@HardwareArtisan Thanks sir ❤.i am gonna build my first pc on corsair 7000 x soon..but this video of yours on 5000 x is really helping me as a reference.
I would of rather had mounting places for 3.5 inch platter drives where that side radiator is. This case is very confusing to me as far as RGB goes. I bought the 5000D and once you buy into the Corsair ecosystem, you realize, it's way over priced. SO rather than being happy, I have very mixed feelings. Maybe the Phantek route with the NV7 might have been better.
Once you buy the case, fans, AIO, fans... you've spent $500 and still don't have really a single computer part... yet.
Hi choppergirl, I feel your pain for sure. Corsair RGB is definitely on the high end of the spectrum for cost. Let me know if I can help. I do like that NV7, I might have to take a look at it. check out the bracket below, it’s an sad/hdd bracket that will mount to a fan spot. I haven’t tried it, but maybe it helps with your build.
Thanks for watching!!!

I got this case in black;
and regarding "Should handle anything i need to throw at it" is not exactly true. My kid threw his cup in his anger of not getting what he wanted (he is only 3 years old) and the glass window and the lower "case" that PSU covering this in bottom, that part you took out, the screw area that holds the cover down broke, must have been a production error, screwed to hard, i have not touched i though. So, it does not handle things you need to throw at it.
Of course i took your words literally and made it a "joke" even though my event is true.
This case actually supports 13 fans, not 10. You can actually put 6 on the top for a push/pull fyi
Good Point Rodzilla067!!! Thanks for that information!! Thanks for watching!!!
5000d airflow was a better construction my opinion...its the only thing its worth to buy from corsair...
got 13 fans too in it...🤣
its like an air condition
Hi Karl Heinz Rumenigge, you're right, i'm sure the 5000D is better airflow. Sounds like an awesome build with 13 fans...love it!! Thanks for watching!!!
A 380mm rad huh?.. lmao its 360 dude … 360
haha, haven't you heard of the new 380mm radiators....me neither, but if you do, you can say you heard it here first. It's alot of numbers and stuff, I'll get it right next time!! Thanks for watching Thomas K!!
The more build videos I watch on this the more I regret buying it... it looks confusing as phwk. The whole Corsair RGB lighting ecosystem looks like a total mess. Ideally the wiring for the fans should be embedded or prewired intot he case, and you just plug your fans with a one inch cable into a jack right next to it... all those jacks lead by hidden wiring to an already embedded Commander controller. Instead, you' have this... rat's nest.
Hi M S, I totally get that. Once you work with it, it’s not that confusing. That said, it can be a rats nest that you have to deal with and I would be onboard with a Corsair system that eliminated all the wires, a pre wired system as you described would be cool to see. There are some fan systems such as Lian Li that simplify it, but they aren’t perfect either! We all feel the pain of RGB lighting, haha. Have fun with it and let me know if I can help!! Thanks for watching!
Horrible case. The 7000x is so much better
Fair enough Rockyalwayswins, that's 1 vote for suckage on the 5000X, We can't disagree with you that the 7000x is a cool case! Thanks for watching....Awesome username!!!
