How Much Does it Cost?Amazingly, the Corsair Carbide Series Spec-04 Tempered Glass chassis is available for just £55.99. You can get the older acrylic panel version for even less at just £47.52. However, I would pay the extra for the glass, it's a much ni...
Maximum 272mm ATX motherboard width, Odd backplate cut-out alignment

Our opinion at the time of the original Spec-04 review was that while it was a functional case, its £55 launch price was too high and put it in competition with cases that offered considerably more. That case is now below £45, which is more reasonable, bu...

PriceThe Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-04 Mid-Tower Gaming Chassis is available right now at most major retailers or Corsair directly for £49.99. That's pretty fantastic value money for a chassis that looks this good. Of course, it comes from a well-known a...

At £55, the Spec-04 was never going to blow us away. Corsair is evidently looking to entice gamers on a budget with the aggressive design and LED fan, and the chassis is otherwise designed to be simple to work with and capable of housing a standard gaming...

Low price, I/O panel is fixed to the core chassis, Five drive bays, Open structure makes the PC build easy
Largest supported liquid cooler is 140mm, There is no noise deadening material, The top is open and unfiltered, Cable management is fairly minimal
We expected very little from the Corsair Carbide SPEC-04 and it defied our expectations. The recommended retail price in the UK is said to be around £55 inc vat although as we publish immediately after NDA breaks, no etailer is yet listing it. We will upd...
Affordable, Good airflow, Removable HDD cage (with screws)
Limited liquid cooling support, Ships with only one fan, No dust filter on top fan mount
The Carbide SPEC-04 is a basic and budget cabinet. The beauty of this cabinet is that even though there aren't any premium features but you will still be able to assemble a powerful gaming rig inside. It's certainly refreshing from the SPEC-03 while missi...
The Corsair Carbide SPEC-04 doesn't intend to blow us away or to put us in awe. It's an inexpensive (gaming) case meant for system builders who have limited budget but still needs the essentials and decent airflow capability (both intake and exhaust).Let'...
