Overall the Corsair Obsidian 250 is a great chassis if you're looking for a mini-ITX chassis. Although it is designed for a mini-ITX motherboard which is mainly a small form factor motherboard, the 250D is pushing the limits of SFF. The Corsair Obsidian 2...
All factors combined makes us think that the Obsidian 250D from Corsair is a very funky product. It looks really nice and comes with features that you typically only find starting at the more high-end mid-towers. Next to that the build quality is good as...

Corsair says, "if you want to build a Mini ITX system without sacrificing expansion, flexibility, or performance, the Obsidian Series 250D is your answer". Although that may be the case, the Obsidian 250D does sacrifice one thing: compactness. The volume...
The current trend of unleashing mITX cases onto the community is overwhelming. The Fractal Node 304 was a great example how it could be done, though it had one major setback and that was the omission of the optical drive in favor of more storage capac...

If you want the full indepth nitty gritty on the 250D then you really need to watch the video above, due to our inability to shut up if we wrote everything down this review would be about 40 pages long and I doubt you'd get past page 3 eh boys ;)The 250D...
Solid build quality, Holds tops of hardware, Options for a fairly high end custom water system or AIOs, Tool free storage bays, Good air cooling potential, Multiple dust filters, Price
Kind of big for a MINI-ITX case, Mechanical hard drive can make a lot of noise, A better cover for storage bay would have been nice
Corsair says Obsidian 250D “Mini ITX without any compromise” and they are not wrong. Although 250D those not really look like your regular Mini-ITX cabinet it is on a rather larger side is not something you might hide in your living room near your TV,It’s a case for those...
Corsair's past offerings have been very solid and the new Obsidian Series 250D - their very first Mini-ITX casing - follows in this tradition.It might not be the most stylish or eye-catching casing, but the Obsidian Series 250D has a pleasant design and c...
