Corsair iCue 220T RGB Airflow, schwarz, Glasfenster

Für einen Preis von 99,00 € erhält der Käufer mit dem Corsair iCUE 220T RGB Airflow ein kompaktes Midi-Tower Gehäuse mit drei integrierten SP120 RGB PRO Lüftern sowie eine Lighting Node CORE. Alleine die drei Lüfter kosten bei separatem Erwerb knapp 60 €, was klar für das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis spricht. Das Tempered-Glass Sidepanel und die die Stahl-Front mit Airflow-optimierten Design macht in Kombination mit der RGB-Beleuchtung der Lüfter einen super Eindruck. Des Weiteren bietet das Gehäuse entnehmbare Staubfilter (oben, unten & vorne) und eine durchgängige Netzteilabdeckung.

Corsair is clearly pushing the iCUE platform into focus by equipping their cases with its own retail fans and Lighting Node Core right out of the box. On paper, that provides you with excellent value in the case of the iCUE 220T RGB chassis. Considering a set of three SP120 RGB PRO fans in a kit with the controller is meant to sell for US$79, one can argue that for a mere US$30 more, you get a chassis as well.

The brand new iCUE 220T RGB Airflow has many things going for it, most noticeably its three SP120 RGB PRO fans (controlled via their iCUE software), the steel perforated fascia which doesn’t just look great but allows plenty of air to reach the interior of the case and of course its tempered glass side panel. However, although the three pre-installed SP120 RGB PRO fans indeed give it impressive airflow levels (for a stock model) they also produce quite a bit of noise thus putting the iCUE 220T RGB Airflow in 14th place out of the 92 towers we’ve tested to date.

...a compact ATX solution that stands out from the crowd courtesy of a quirky front panel design and three bundled RGB fans.

Overall, my experience with the iCUE 220T was great and if you’re in the market for a compact mid-tower, Corsair’s iCUE 220T RGB just might be what you are looking for.
