Absolutely great case! One of the big motivation factors for choosing this case was that it came with the 3 iCUE rgb fans (those are valued at nearly the price of what I paid for the case ~$90). As with all ATX cases, there's no space issues even with the new monster GPUs. One interesting point was that I needed to take the 3.5 HDD bay enclosure out of the case to get my fully modular PSU into the case - this was no big deal for me since I'm using 1 TB NVME m.2 and 1 TB ssd SATA. The tempered glass is great, the looks is great, there's tons of space, the airflow is fantastic. One other thing I think you should know is that with my GPU, I had a tough time getting the HDMI cable to fully seat due to the proximity of the GPU output port and the divider between the PCIe exterior ports ... Probably should include a pic to make it make more sense. Anyway - used a DP cable and all was well!! Hope this was a helpful review!

I purchased the Corsair iCUE 220T case to house my all-new gaming components as I was looking for something with great airflow at a bargain price.
First off, I should mention that while it can handle an ATX motherboard, it's a very tight squeeze. In addition, you'll want to purchase a smaller graphics card and power supply in order for everything to fit. You'll also want to take into consideration that the (removable) HDD cage makes it really difficult for your power cords to run through the back of your power source without pinching them, so you may want to use SSD drives instead.
That being said, I'm very pleased with its performance. It contains 3 RGB fans in front, has 2 SSD slots on the closed back side so you can slip them in with no effort. There are 2 USB ports and a headphone jack next to the power button on top, which makes it very easy to plug things in without heading towards the back. It has an HDD cage to slip in 2 old-school hard drives (I had to remove mine in order for my modular power cables to fit properly.) There is plenty of airflow in this case! Vented front, back and top allows everything inside to run extremely cool. In addition, there's a tempered glass side panel so you can view all your components. With the capability to run your component cables through the other side, there are plenty of openings to fish your cables through, along with many tie-down possibilities. You can also place additional fans and water pump cooler if desired (I added a rear Thermaltake LED fan just to be sure.)
If you're looking for a computer chassis with plenty of airflow, this is an excellent choice. Just be aware in advance that some of your parts might not fit. I was lucky.

I liked this case but it has quirks. The design on the front is kinda strange. But I liked it. Since my 220T was all black I wanted to break that up a bit so I cut out a circle to cover the Corsair logo at the bottom fo the front panel, rough sanded the panel then painted it Krylon Fusion Pepper Red. Once it dried, I removed the tape and applied a gloss coat. I like this accent.
Below the front panel, which is held into place by pressure tabs, is a mesh screen which pops off and is easy to clean. The RGB fans are fin for moving air and are pre-hooked up to the iCue hub on the back side which will have to be hooked up to an USB hub on your motherboard. You have to go to Corsair's website to download the iCue software. Some people love it. Some people hate it. But honestly, you are buying a Corsair product so don't be surprised.
If you mount a top radiator, you need to buy low profile RAM for the clearance issue you will run into. At first I ran a Corsair H60 radiator and it hooked up to the back of the case no problem at all. But I can't leave well enough alone so I ran a front mounted radiator H100 Pro. Both fit with no issues. There is also a magnetic filter that sits on the top. Not a small particulate filter but one of the larger ones really used for exhaust more than intake filter. You could remove it for better exhaust airflow if you are using a pressurized cooling configuration.
Something I didn't like was the access ports to run your power cables to the front of the chassis seem to not be where you need them. The 24 pin motherboard connector was directly between two ports which caused the 24 pin cable to have to be twisted to the side. I took my Dremel tool with a cutting wheel and just cut out the center spans to give me clear paths to hook up all my cables. I like this much better. But you don't have to do this. The front glass is clear and not tinted. I like this a lot! I get to clearly see all the work I did inside and the RGB set up that I paid extra for.
On the back side there are two removable mounting brackets for SATA 2.5 drives that are very nicely done and the area next to the power supply has a mounting cage for 3 drives that is adjustable forward or aft depending on your needs. I ended up removing the cages all together to have a place to put excess power cable. It really gets tight in there with an 850 power supply.
On the front top edge, there are two USB 2.0 ports, headphone jack and a power button all next to each other. The power button feels kind cheap for this price point.
Overall this is a good case. Not a great case. It wouldn't take much to put it into the great case category with just a few small modifications. I think it is on the high end price wise for the size but it does have a few features that I like (RGB fans pre-installed) A little fun case modding and playing with different cooling fans and liquid coolers fit what I wanted from a case.

This is an excellent mid tower and is great for a nice smooth compact pc build. The tinted glass panes add a nice sleek look to the tower especially with the RGB lit parts. I was able to fit the Corsair ICUEH115i water cooler and a PNY NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX3070 in the tower with ease just for reference. And cable management was no issue at all.

UPGRADED ALIENWARE R7 CASE AND MOBO, SO NICE

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Great small form factor ATX case, snug fit for 240mm AIO, but case is well built, easy to put together, all screws and included and in black color. Glass window was clear and high quality. Great price I paid $89.99 and includes 3 x 120mm ML RGB Corsair fans.....basically the case was free as these ML *Magnetic levitation fans run $45 each.
I decided to transplant my current ALIENWARE R7 *i7 8700, 32gb 2666mhz DDR, RTX 2080 into a new case in preparation for RTX 3080 in the new year.
After tearing down the ALIENWARE there was no way to move the board into a new CASE as font panel/switch pins for the MOBO are only usable in stock ALIENWARE case =(
I decided to upgrade the MOBO, from Z370 Stock AW to AORUS z390 pro WIFI. Transplant went flawless with no windows reconfig or reinstall needed.
This case was a tight fit for ICUE h100 elite Capellix AIO but top mount position exhaust fit perfectly. CPU temps during gaming are 10-15 degrees cooler than stock ALIENWARE AIO 120mm single fan.
**My GPU temps are also lower, I saw 5-6 degrees lower in WARZONE.
**I'm getting 10-15+ FPS in WARZONE from this transplant, not sure if its a combination of CASE, AIO and MOBO? I'm very happy.
Stock config for front fans were all 3 120mm were intake, top mount AIO 240mm exhaust. I will be adding a rear 120mm ML RGB fan to match, this will be intake.

Gorgeous and affordable case. Comes with three Sp120 front fans and a rgb controller hub. However, its best to have a Corsair commander pro as there are no fan connectors on the rgb controller hub. I removed the hub it came with and used my commander pro. Case is compact so cable management is important. Even with neat cable management, the back of the computer was tight to put on. I managed to get the backing on flat after some tweaking of the cables. All in all, solid product with good airflow.

Nice case. Rgb fans look fantastic. Everythink fit well for me. Used an atx board with hyper 212 black cooler. Good cable management and placenents. Especially like the gromet coming from the basement. Came in handy on usb 3.0 plug placement on mobo i used. Definitely would use again for a build. Tech review twsting showed thatv3 front fans installed did pass the heat through the and back with just one rear exit fan.

Even just empty sitting there waiting for me to fill it with parts it looks so sexy. I can just imagine how easy cable management will be and just how colorful it will be when it lights up. If I’m able to I will update this review down the road. But if you’re looking for a mid tower that fits an ATX mobo with good airflow and good looks then this might be it.

Okay first off it says you can get a radiator in the top but with tall Ram you can’t you’re going to run into clearance issues. I replaced one of the fans on my AIO with a Corsair slim fan and it fit perfectly. It was a 20$ fix and well worth it for the small footprint of this case. It will also hold a 40 series GPU with those same slim fans or in my case without the fan to make room.

My old case was huge compared to this, couldn't fit on my desk and had broken cosmetic parts here and there. I hardly ever use the read/write internal disc drive anymore so not having a place for that in the case was not a problem. I really like this case. I think it's perfect for a simple build. It fits my full ATX motherboard with a Master Cooler CPU cooler just fine. My power supply sits under the cover at the bottom and makes it look clean concealing the cords with it as well. It only comes with 3 fans so I mounted one at the front for intake and my HDD, one on the CPU radiator and one on the back. Doesn't come with software but finding it online was easy. The RGB fans are easy enough to install and move around. The software allows you to make them bright or dim and any color you want. I've had it for about a month now and the only minor draw back I would say is the filter. The filter stops most dust but not all but hey my last case didn't have one so this is a huge upgrade. I also like how easy it is to remove and clean them. The only other possible downfall I could see with this case is the front panel. The panel is metal with four nubs that each snap into a plastic part. I could see them wearing out from cleaning the front filter often but only after a long time of doing so.

I was looking for a case that had better airflow through the front, but one that also wasn't higher in price. I found this case and decided to give it a try. I just got all my components transfered in it earlier today. So far it seems to be helping keep air moving much better. My gpu hasn't had to ramp up its fans to keep itself cool. The fans that come with the are easy to work with. I also like the number of cutouts that are found through the case to run cables through. Allows for easier cable management. When placing the psu, it is a little tighter to get the cable hooked up into a modular psu. I found it worked best to take out the HDD bracket, then mount my psu and insert my power cables I needed. The top of the case allows for two 120mm fans or two 140mm, however there isn't much room for a 140mm fan to be placed on the top with the cpu power cable.

I love this case and it works for me and my needs. Few quick things before I say more:
-You HAVE to get a modular or semi modular power supply (I have the Corsair 650w) unless you don't want the hard drive cage because there is not enough space for extra cables not even mentioning different supplies are different sizes. It's possible though despite what some might say.
-This case doesn't fit air coolers very well it's made for AIOs. To my measurements Noctua D15 doesn't fit and a 212 is the exact height so it might fit, might not. I'm using a wraith prism it's great for all intents and purposes.
-Some back panel slots are very small , a couple in the corners I found unusable
This case is good though, feels quality, looks quality, compact. You get plenty of screws and zipties. The fans included are fine, and look great. I think they get too much criticism for being loud, because in a mid range build, realistic use, and mild overclocking it's hardly noticeable unlike benchmarking or if you put your CPU under heavy load or high clock speeds yeah they are loud but this case/fans I feel aren't made for that market.

Best aiflow case ive had so far from NZXT to coolermaster. Ive been through 4 cases and this had the best airflow. Only issue is if you grpahics card that is longer than standard plus a all in one watercooler(AIO). The fans will have to be placed outside of the case and front metal cover will block airflow which increased CPU temps by 3-6 degress. What helped is it was a bestbuy member sale for $79.

Needed extra room for my new 2.75" video card and after searching for many reviews in youtube, I decided to purchase this case. I am very skeptical about ordering cases on line because of shipping damage, so curb pickup was perfect. This is a rather compact ATX case but will fit everything is planed accordingly. Quality is there, not too much tint on the tempered glass. The included pro fans and RGB hub are phenomenal and the airflow is up there with any other case in this class. A bit pricey but well worth it!

Built my first PC using this case. Looks great and bought it on sale. The RGB fans and controller work great with corsair icue software. I added a rear fan for exhaust. There is room to add a radiator on top or the front if needed. The legs could be a little taller to allow more airflow to the power supply but keeping the case raised off carpet is easy enough with a couple pieces of wood for now. Overall breat case with alot of options for running wires and plenty of room inside for large 3 fan GPU.
