Corsair Obsidian 750D Case Review

We measure from a distance of around 1 meter from the closed chassis and 4 foot from the ground to mirror a real world situation. Ambient noise in the room measures close to the limits of our sound meter at 30dBa.

The minimum readings for our acoustics tests are obtained with the fans running at 5V. For our maximum readings the fans were left running at 12V. The CPU and GPU fans are manually disconnected to eliminate unwanted noise.

Running at 5V the Corsair Obsidian 750D's fans are nearly inaudible. At full speed the noise levels increase but never to the point where they can be described as intrusive.
