CORSAIR Unveils Two New Series of Dual Chamber PC Cases and new RX Series Fans
CORSAIR announced its re-entry into the dual chamber PC case market. Building on the direct airflow and impressive performance of the 680X and 280X cases, the new 6500 and 2500 Series deliver unprecedented levels of customization. Whether you need the spacious mid-tower chassis of the 6500 for a powerhouse desktop or the compact mid-tower design of the 2500 for a micro ATX build, their dual chamber layout makes building easier, promoting efficient cooling alongside a clean and professional look. With support for the latest reverse connector motherboards, options to convert from fully mesh airflow to tempered glass panels, and a range of functional and aesthetic accessories, these new cases mark a leap forward in dual-chamber case design.
The new reverse connector motherboards are a game-changer for PC builders. These motherboards, such as the ASUS BTF and MSI Project Zero, feature connections discreetly tucked away behind the motherboard tray. This layout, especially when combined with the CORSAIR iCUE LINK ecosystem, dramatically simplifies the building process and enables a nearly cable-free view within the main chamber of the case. iCUE LINK technology takes this a step further by enabling fans and other internal components to connect to each other seamlessly, reducing the need for multiple types of cables and connectors.
The 6500D AIRFLOW and 2500D AIRFLOW are designed for optimal cooling performance, featuring fully mesh front, side, roof, and bottom panels to meet the airflow needs of the most demanding high-end components. For those who prioritize visual flair, the 6500X and 2500X are masterpieces of design, offering a breathtaking view of your setup behind two crystal-clear tempered glass panels.
The dual-chamber layout separates the cooling and cable management zones to allow more direct airflow for thermally demanding components. The 6500D AIRFLOW and 2500D AIRFLOW provide four radiator mounting locations for immense cooling flexibility, while the 6500X and 2500X can fit three radiators, ensuring impressive cooling for flagship builds as well.
The 6500 and 2500 Series incorporate numerous user-friendly features. With CORSAIR’s new effortless one-twist Quikturn™ fan screws, tool-free removable front panels, fabric pull tabs, and flexible doubleshot grommets, every detail has been engineered for convenience. These cases also allow builders to show off their unique style with a wide range of personalization options, including alternative wooden and aluminum panels, vertical GPU mounts, and more – all available through the CORSAIR webstore.
“We have a strong legacy to uphold with respect to dual chamber cases, and we really wanted to up the ante to make these the most attractive cases to build in,” said Aaron Neal, Director of DIY Product Marketing at CORSAIR. “Fans of our 680X and 280X will find that we honor that legacy while adding in plenty of new features that vastly improve the PC building experience.”
For those embarking on a new desktop build, whether it's a mid-tower or SFF setup, choose a 6500 or 2500 case – and be sure to equip it with new iCUE LINK RX Series fans for unmatched radiator cooling performance.

CORSAIR launched the iCUE LINK RX Series of PC cooling fans, further expanding the company's groundbreaking iCUE LINK ecosystem. This launch marks a significant step in the evolution of CORSAIR's portfolio of DIY components, reinforcing the company’s dedication to innovation and excellence in the dynamic DIY PC market.
RX Series fans represent a pinnacle of engineering, incorporating CORSAIR Magnetic Dome bearings, AirGuide technology, and in-house fan blade development optimized for unparalleled cooling efficiency in both radiator and PC case applications. Their integration into the unique iCUE LINK ecosystem exemplifies the company’s commitment to making the PC building experience more accessible and welcoming to a broader audience.
RX fans set a new standard in build quality and airflow performance for both radiator and case applications. This superior performance is the culmination of exhaustive research and development, meticulous performance optimization, and the integration of cutting-edge materials like Liquid Crystal Polymer (in non-RGB models). Furthermore, the construction of the fan blade and frame incorporates glass fiber reinforcement, enhancing their durability.
The RX Series features digital control through the iCUE LINK ecosystem so you can precisely set your preferred fan speeds – up to 2,100 RPM (120mm) or 1,700 RPM (140mm). Preset fan curves are easy to set up within CORSAIR iCUE software, as well as advanced fine-tuning to optimize your system’s thermal demands.
“We made it our mission to create a fan that could achieve top performance as either a radiator fan or a case fan,” said Aaron Neal, Director of DIY Product Marketing at CORSAIR. “We also wanted to incorporate iCUE LINK technology for the best possible build experience. With the RX Series, we believe we’ve hit all of those criteria and more.”
CORSAIR’s proprietary Magnetic Dome bearing creates almost no friction, minimizing noise while enhancing the fan’s longevity. RX and RX RGB fans are also the first to include CORSAIR Quikturn™ screws featuring unique threading for installation in just a single twist.
Since its release last year, the iCUE LINK ecosystem has been enthusiastically received in the DIY market for its transformative approach to PC building. With the ability to chain different component types together using a universal standard connector, CORSAIR has made the building process more intuitive and streamlined. Smart technology integrated into all iCUE LINK products enables intelligent, bi-directional communication with a single System Hub, sending both data and power to the entire series of devices through a single port. The result is dramatically reduced build times and simplified cable management – removing key barriers to entry for newcomers.
CORSAIR iCUE LINK RX RGB fans are available in black or white, while non-RGB RX fans are available in stealth black variant. Starter kits include three 120mm or two 140mm fans along with an iCUE LINK System Hub. Single fan expansion kits enable you to add more to your iCUE LINK cooling setup.
Availability and Pricing
CORSAIR iCUE LINK RX Series and RX RGB Series Fans are available now from the CORSAIR webstore and the CORSAIR worldwide network of authorized retailers and distributors. The RX and RX RGB Series are backed by a five-year warranty, alongside the CORSAIR worldwide customer service and technical support network.
