CORSAIR 2500 SERIES

• Right side panel: Unscrew the locking screws and swivel the mesh side panel off the tabs in the front of the case.
• Left side panel: To remove the glass side panel, unscrew the locking screw at the rear of the case and pull it outward from the motherboard tray. The glass will tilt away, allowing you to lift it off the frame.

• 2500X: Remove the two screws on the side of the front panel to release and hinge off the entire front portion from the chassis.
• 2500D AIRFLOW: Remove the two screws on the side and four screws on the front to release and hinge off the entire front portion from the chassis.

• Since all 2500 Series parts are interchangeable, you can switch between 2500D AIRFLOW and 2500X configurations with reconfiguration kits available from the CORSAIR webstore.

The 2500 Series supports mITX and mATX motherboards, including ASUS BTF and MSI Project Zero motherboards with reversed connections. Before installation, ensure your motherboard I/O plate/shield is in place, if required.

• Align your motherboard with the standoffs for your motherboard type and secure it using the provided motherboard screws.

• Connect the FPANEL plug directly to your motherboard front panel I/O pins, following the keyed connector.

For non-standard Intel or AMD motherboards, use the included adapter to connect from the FPANEL plug to the individual pins.

• The 2500 Series fits most modern graphics cards horizontally out of the box.
• After installing the motherboard, remove screws in the PCI covers for card accommodation.

• Slide the card in until the PCIe retention clicks on the motherboard.
• Align screws in the PCIe shield and secure the expansion card into the case.

• The 2500 Series features two 360mm radiator mounts on top and bottom, one 240mm radiator mount on the side, one 240mm radiator mount on the front (2500D AIRFLOW model only), and a 120mm radiator mount in the rear.
• For AIOs, choose between top, side, or front (2500D AIRFLOW only) for radiator placement.

• Top mounting provides optimal noise performance, but other mounts can be utilized based on your build preferences.

• Hold your fan at fan mount, use the included QuikTurn screws and install your fans quickly with a Phillips-head screwdriver.

The 2500 series supports standard ATX power supplies in the side chamber. If you would like to install an ATX power supply, please uninstall the pre-installed SFX-to-ATX bracket.

• Insert the power supply from the side with the fan facing out towards the side panel, so it is intaking from outside the case, filtering through the side panel, and exhausting out of the rear of the power supply.

The 2500 Series also fully supports CORSAIR’s patented SHIFT power supplies that have the modular board rotated to the side for easier cable management.

• Installation is identical to a standard PSU installation, with the final position allowing the power supply fan to intake from outside the case.

The 2500 Series supports 2x 3.5” HDDs in the removable hard drive cage.

• Remove the drive caddy, secure the drive to it using the included HDD screws, and slide it back into the case.

• For SSDs, the 2500 Series accommodates 2x 2.5” SSDs on the front, in addition to the hard drive capacity.

• The 2500 Series features nylon mesh filters on the side, bottom, and front (2500D AIRFLOW only).

* The bottom filter pulls out from the front.

The 2500 Series includes various cable management features like zip tie points, iCUE LINK loops, hook & loop straps, doubleshot grommets, and an optional RapidRoute strap kit (sold separately).

• Zip tie points are strategically placed for routing power cables to specific devices.
• iCUE LINK loops in the top panel, near the rear fan, and on the removable fan mounting tray securely hold iCUE LINK cables without additional attachments.
• Use the hook & loop strap on the rear for efficient cable management, consolidating external cables into a single braid at the chassis base.
• Doubleshot grommets feature a dual-hardness rubber design for a secure mount in the grommet hole and easy cable passage.
• The optional RapidRoute kit includes 4 extra hook & loop straps and 2 metal cable guides for faster, easier, and less permanent cable management.
