Corsair Graphite Series 730T & 760T Chassis Review

Exterior
Here we have the slightly cheaper Graphite 730T chassis, this chassis is virtually identical to the 760T for 95% of its construction, so while I’ve been through it with the camera just as extensively as I did with the 760T on the previous pages, I’m only going to stop and comment on any difference between the two models, otherwise I may as well copy and paste most of the text.
The first major and easily the biggest difference is the left side panel, the window is gone in favour of a solid metal panel, this features some cool looking angular shapes towards the back that lead to two extra air vents. Unfortunately these are not filtered, nor do they have space to mount any fans, but extra airflow may bring you benefits dependent on your systems configuration, especially so if you’re air cooling your rig.
The glossy black right side panel is swapped out for another solid metal panel, no extra ventilation this side, but it’s obviously not required behind the motherboard.
The front panel is much the same and still features three 5.25″ drive bays. On the 760T the top bay featured a flip-down optical drive cover, but the 730T does not, these are all just removable covers.
The next big change is that the two channel fan controller is gone, other than that the front IO panel is unchanged.
Ventilation remains the same below that, but you’ll find red LED fans opposed to the blue ones in the white 760T.
