Corsair iCUE 5000T RGB

Things are getting colorful at Corsair. With the Corsair iCUE 5000T RGB, the manufacturer has introduced a new, illuminated PC case that wants to score with additional airflow. The Corsair iCUE LC100 Case Accent Lighting Panels provide additional details.

Corsair iCUE 5000T RGB

The Corsair iCUE 5000T RGB is offered in black and white color schemes. Common to both case variants are a total of 208 individually controllable RGB LEDs that provide impressive RGB lighting. They are divided into 160 individually controllable RGB LEDs in the built-in light strips, as well as 48 LEDs in the three integrated CORSAIR LL120 RGB fans.

This setup is pre-wired and ready to go out of the box thanks to the included iCUE COMMANDER CORE XT controller. This provides precise fan control for up to six PWM fans and offers detailed system monitoring and unique lighting control.

The case focuses on a clean design and user-friendly features. The spacious interior offers room for up to ten 120mm fans or several 360mm radiators. This is made possible by a quickly accessible motherboard tray, which can also be used to build side-mounted cooling configurations. In addition, there are removable covers on the front and top that ensure optimal airflow for all systems installed inside.

Additional lighting is provided by the Corsair iCUE LC100 Case Accent Lighting Panels, which are also newly announced. They allow for additional customization of the PC case with the help of up to 18 interconnected triangular RGB tiles that can be installed inside or outside the case.

They are strongly reminiscent of smaller Nanoleaf Shapes panels and are magnetically attached to any steel surface. They are equipped with special flat connectors and hinges for mounting at different angles to allow three-dimensional arrangements.

LC100 starter kits include a CORSAIR iCUE Lighting Node PRO controller to synchronize lighting with other iCUE-enabled devices. Expansion kits are also offered that include nine additional RGB panels.

Pricing and Availability

The Corsair iCUE 5000T RGB mid-tower case and the Corsair iCUE LC100 Case Accent Lighting Panels are available now from the manufacturer’s online store, as well as in stores. The MSRP for the case is 399.90 euros, while the LC100 starter kit is 119.90 euros.
