A Show-Stopping Stage for Your Custom Build
The Corsair iCUE 3500X RGB Mid-Tower chassis is engineered for the discerning South African PC builder who refuses to compromise on aesthetics or performance. With removable tempered glass panels on both the front and left side, your components are on full display from virtually every angle — a wraparound glass experience that turns your system into a centrepiece. Broad motherboard compatibility spanning Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX, ATX, and E-ATX (up to 305mm x 277mm) means the 3500X accommodates a wide range of build configurations, from compact powerhouses to fully loaded enthusiast rigs.
iCUE LINK Lighting — Ready the Moment You Close the Side Panel
Tired of sourcing fans separately and wrestling with a tangle of RGB cables? The 3500X ships with three iCUE LINK LX120-R ARGB fans and an iCUE LINK System Hub already installed. The iCUE LINK ecosystem daisy-chains both power and data through a single connector per fan, slashing cable clutter at the source. Manage lighting and fan curves for every component across your entire build from Corsair's iCUE software — no compromises, no mess, just immersive RGB from the very first boot.
Cooling Headroom That Keeps Up With Your Ambitions
Whether you're pushing a high-end CPU under sustained load or running a flagship GPU through long gaming sessions, the 3500X is built to breathe. The chassis supports up to a 360mm radiator at the top and an additional 360mm on the side — allowing aggressive simultaneous liquid cooling loops. A single 120mm radiator slot at the rear completes the thermal layout. Air coolers up to 170mm tall fit with ease, and GPUs up to 425mm in length are accommodated. Fan mounting points across the top, side, rear, and bottom give you the flexibility to tune airflow precisely for your setup.
Built for Builders, Ready for the Future
The iCUE 3500X is packed with features that make the build process smoother and leave room to grow. A generous 45mm cable routing space keeps the right side panel manageable, and the case is compatible with RapidRoute cable management channels (sold separately) for an even cleaner finish. Vertical GPU mounting is supported via an optional riser card (sold separately), and reverse-connection motherboards are fully accommodated — making the 3500X a forward-looking foundation. Storage flexibility is covered by two internal 3.5-inch and two 2.5-inch drive bays, while seven horizontal (or four vertical) expansion slots support even the most ambitious component configurations. A 2-year warranty backs your investment.
