Corsair Spec-04 Mid-Tower Gaming Chassis Review

A Closer Look – Interior


The side panel is easily removed, giving you easy access to the surprisingly spacious interior. There’s no 5.25″ drive bay here, and the HDD bays are less than half height. This means you’ve got ample room to move your components around during installation. There’s a large CPU cooler mounting cut-out at the back, and holes pretty much everywhere to route all of your cables.

In the bottom right, there are three HDD bays each with removable drive trays. Each of them will support a 3.5″ or 2.5″ drive.

Above the HDD tray, there are two dedicated 2.5″ drive mounts, where you simply screw the drive to the backplate. Mounting drives like this is great, as it provides a nice way of showing them off through the side panel window. Finally, there’s a 120mm fan in the front, with room for another. A radiator may not work in the front though, as space is quite tight.

In the rear, there’s ventilation in the base for the PSU, with a dust filter provided to ensure it gets clean airflow.

Everything here is fairly standard, and while there’s no 120mm fan in the back, you could easily install your own or a slim 120 AIO cooler.

Around the back, cable routing space looks pretty limited. Those with thicker PSU cables (like us) may struggle. However, there is a raised section to the side panel, so that’ll help quite a bit.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
