Corsair Frame 4500X RS-R ARGB Review
Introduction
I would like to thank Corsair for supplying the review sample.
Corsair is continuing to expand their FRAME series of cases with the 4500X series. The case is similar in size as the FRAME 4000 but offers a design oriented focus with its 90° bent glass panel. If we recall correctly, this is actually the first time Corsair has opted for this type of single pane with such a bend, so it will be interesting to see how they have implemented that. The FRAME 4500X is available in two variants, the LX-R which employs Corsair’s own iCUE LINK, and an RS-R which provides ARGB using the classic 3-pin connector. Both of these can be picked up in either black or white. We received the Corsair FRAME 4500X RS-R in black for review.
