WHAT FANS DO THE 6500 SERIES CASE COME WITH?

CORSAIR is introducing a new line of cases called the 6500 Series Mid-Tower Dual Chamber cases. These cases build on the success of past celebrated cases such as the 680X and the Air 540. The new line of cases aims to outdo previous models and raise the bar in the dual-chamber PC case segment. CORSAIR has focused on three key areas: innovation, quality, and design.

A dual-chamber PC case is a really cool design that offers both style and function. It's a chassis that splits the inside into two compartments, usually dividing the motherboard, graphics card, and CPU in one section and the power supply, storage drives, and cables in the other. This innovative design serves several important purposes.

This design layout improves the management of airflow, resulting in better cooling efficiency by separating the heat-producing components from the rest of the system. With dedicated paths for air intake and exhaust, the temperature stays at its optimal level, ensuring maximum performance even during intensive tasks such as gaming or content creation.

Also, when you separate the different parts, you get fewer tangled cables, which makes everything look neater and more accessible to deal with when maintaining it.

Good airflow is super important when building a PC because it directly affects how well the system performs and how long it lasts. When the CPU, GPU, and power supply generate heat, adequate airflow helps dissipate the heat and prevent any damage from overheating. That's why you want to make sure that your PC case has excellent airflow so your system doesn't get too hot and start to slow down.

Pairing a dual chamber PC case such as the 6500 series with performance fans like the iCUE RX RGB fans can help achieve efficient and optimal cooling for your system. Fans play a critical role in maintaining the optimal operating temperature of internal components, ensuring system stability, and prolonging the lifespan of hardware. These small yet essential components are responsible for circulating air throughout the computer case, facilitating the exchange of heat generated by components such as the CPU, GPU, and power supply.

There are three different 6500 series case variants – 6500X RGB, 6500X, and 6500D AIFLOW, all have the same great looks and functionality, except for a few variations from one model to another.

6500X RGB

The CORSAIR iCUE LINK 6500X RGB Mid-Tower Dual Chamber PC Case comes equipped with CORSAIR iCUE LINK RX120 RGB Fans out of the box. These fans are the top-of-the-line CORSAIR fans that use the iCUE LINK connection system, where one hub connects up to 14 devices like case fans and AIO liquid CPU coolers via one single cable.

The CORSAIR iCUE LINK RX fans are the best when it comes to keeping your PC cool. They give you the power to customize the lights and colors so you can make your setup look great. Whether you're building a new PC or upgrading your existing one, these fans will help you get the best performance possible, no matter what kind of games you play.

Available in two different sizes, 120mm and 140mm, it comes in two color options: black and white.

6500D AIRFLOW & 6500X

These variants do not include fans by default, so users have the flexibility to choose the fans they prefer for their build. However, CORSAIR offers a diverse range of high-performance PC case fans that would complement any of these models.

Here are a few fans CORSAIR offers that would look great in a 6500 series PC build.

If you need help in building your PC and want to ensure that your PC components are compatible with the rest of your PC build, you can visit CORSAIR's PC Builder portal. This portal will help you in removing the guesswork and make your build process much more manageable.

A good case with proper ventilation, like the 6500 series case, or it's diminutive brother, the 2500 Series allows cool air to get in and hot air to move out efficiently. This helps to keep all the important parts working at their best temperature. Plus, good airflow also helps to stop dust and dirt from building up. If you don't have good ventilation, your fans and heat sinks can get blocked, which can cause even more problems with heat, and eventually, your computer's performance might become slower.

If you're planning to build your own PC, whether it's your first time or you've lost count of how many builds you've done, the 6500 series case is definitely worth considering. It's a high-performance case that looks great, too. If you're looking for a case that's ready to build right out of the box, you should go for the 6500X RGB model. It comes with 3 120mm iCUE LINK RX RGB and an iCUE LINK System Hub. On the other hand, if you prefer to choose your own fans to customize your build, the 6500D AIRFLOW is ideal for maximum cooling. Or, if you want to showcase your build behind two stunning tempered glass side and front panels, the 6500X model is perfect. Basically, you can't go wrong with any of the three models that the 6500 series case offers.
