Unboxing Part 2
And we continue with the unboxing and hands-on. In the second part, we take a look at the main chamber of the 6500. Let’s start with a little smile… I hope that the article won’t be flagged as “NSFW” because of the following picture, but that’s how you open the side panel!
The 6500 series also uses the familiar 4mm thick hinged glass door.
The side panel is hooked into the solid hinges at the top and bottom and can also be secured with a screw to prevent accidental removal.
The front panel is made of 3 mm thick glass, which is perfectly adequate due to the small surface area. It is hooked in on one side and fixed on the side with a screw.
The panel can be easily folded forward to access any pumps mounted on the front.
Of course, it can also be removed completely – so the 6500D Airflow can also be turned into the 6500X shown here. The conversion kit is available separately.
Once the front panel is removed, we have a full view of the main chamber of the case. Three 120/140mm fans can be installed at the bottom, unfortunately there is no removable fan/radiator tray.
The same applies to the lid, although this does not have a negative effect on the ease of installation due to the good accessibility.
There are generously dimensioned openings under the mainboard.
The outlets on the sides and top are fitted with rubber grommets.
Finally, let’s take a look at the PCIe panels. The 6500 has 8 slots to offer.
At first I wondered how it would be possible to mount a graphics card vertically with the bars between the individual slots, because the entire slot panel cannot be rotated, as is the case with BeQuiet or Thermaltake. At second glance, however, I saw that the bottom six slots can be removed as a single unit and replaced with an optional bracket.
Finally, a small detail: My beloved spacer with centering is of course always included with Corsair!
