CORSAIR Unveils FRAME 4500X: A Premium Modular PC Case Redefining High-End Builds
In a bold move to elevate the premium PC building experience, CORSAIR has announced the availability of its latest innovation in modular PC cases: the FRAME 4500X. Designed for enthusiasts and professionals alike, this new case is a stunning addition to CORSAIR’s acclaimed FRAME Modular Case System. Featuring panoramic wraparound glass, sleek curved panels, and unparalleled modularity, the FRAME 4500X sets a new standard for aesthetics, functionality, and customization in high-end PC builds.
The FRAME 4500X represents a significant expansion of CORSAIR’s existing lineup, offering a larger mid-tower solution tailored to meet the demands of modern builders. By seamlessly integrating with CORSAIR’s proprietary iCUE LINK software platform, the FRAME 4500X delivers an ecosystem-driven approach that enhances user experience while increasing attach rates for CORSAIR’s cutting-edge components. This strategic focus on integration underscores CORSAIR’s commitment to delivering cohesive solutions that cater to the evolving needs of PC enthusiasts.
A Design Masterpiece Built for Performance
At first glance, the FRAME 4500X captivates with its single-piece panoramic wraparound glass, which transforms any build into a visual masterpiece. The curved side and top panels not only exude elegance but also serve a functional purpose by maximizing airflow through a unique “waterfall” ventilation pattern. This thoughtful design ensures efficient thermal management, keeping high-performance components cool even during intense workloads or gaming sessions.
The FRAME 4500X offers extensive flexibility for customization. While the top and bottom panels provide a blank canvas for personalization, the side panel comes pre-installed with either three RS120-R PWM ARGB fans or three iCUE LINK LX120-R RGB reverse-rotor fans. These premium fans are engineered for optimal cooling performance, drawing cool air into the chassis while minimizing noise levels. Their reverse-rotor design eliminates obstructions, allowing vibrant RGB lighting to shine through unimpeded.
For users seeking additional cooling options, the FRAME 4500X supports up to ten 120mm fans or five 140mm fans, ensuring comprehensive airflow throughout the case. Dual 120mm fan mounts located on the power supply shroud enable direct GPU cooling, further enhancing thermal efficiency. With support for GPUs up to 460mm in length, the FRAME 4500X accommodates even the most powerful graphics cards on the market, providing ample space for easy installation and unhindered performance.
Ease of Assembly and Enhanced Features
Building a PC inside the FRAME 4500X is an intuitive and hassle-free process, thanks to its spacious layout and user-friendly features. The removable glass panel simplifies access to internal components, making assembly and upgrades a breeze. CORSAIR has also included practical extras like QuikTurn screws for effortless fan installation and a reusable screw box to keep small parts organized.
Storage options are equally versatile, with a combination drive plate capable of housing one 3.5-inch HDD and two 2.5-inch SSDs. This ensures builders have sufficient capacity for both storage-intensive applications and lightning-fast data retrieval. On the front panel, users will find a range of modern connectivity options, including two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, a combo headphone/mic jack, and a conveniently placed power button.
To address concerns about GPU sag—a common issue with heavy graphics cards—the FRAME 4500X includes a built-in adjustable GPU Anti-Sag Stabilization Arm. This feature safeguards PCIe brackets and ensures stability, even when using oversized GPUs. Whether you’re assembling a rig for competitive gaming, content creation, or professional workflows, the FRAME 4500X provides peace of mind and reliability.
A Testament to Innovation and Craftsmanship
According to Thi La, Chief Executive Officer of CORSAIR, the FRAME 4500X embodies the company’s dedication to innovation and its deep-rooted DIY heritage. “With its single-piece panoramic wraparound glass, the FRAME 4500X transforms every PC build into a work of artistry while honoring Corsair’s DIY heritage of making systems easy to build, upgrade, and enjoy,” La stated. “This launch highlights our dedication to innovation and reinforces Corsair’s leadership in the PC building space.”
The introduction of the FRAME 4500X underscores CORSAIR’s vision of empowering builders to create PCs that are as visually striking as they are powerful. By combining advanced engineering with meticulous attention to detail, CORSAIR continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in the world of custom PC builds.
