Corsair Obsidian Series 650D Mid-Tower Case ATX 4X5.25 6X3.5INT USB USB3.0 1394 Fan Ctrl No PS
Price: $179.99 CAD

Select all

So this case is amazing considering the cheap junk I've been using in the past. The airflow is great and cable management was actualyl a lot more simple than I expected. The only downside of this is the included top 200mm fan.

Every few minutes, it has a tendency to start lightly squeeking. So my question to you guys is: is there some sort of grease I can use on the fan to stop it from squeeking? Its very light so I wouldnt go out and really call it a defect in any way, but still slightly irritating.

LOL...not mythical, just hard to find the past 2 weeks. I came home from vacation with strep throat and a sinus infection. If I was a horse, they would have shot me by now.

For next time in case someone wants to get this fixed without having to RMA or do not have a warranty anymore, in the past I have used sewing machine oil on my fans. Usually there is a sticker on them you can peel back to reveal the bearings and can put a few drops of sewing machine oil in there.

So they got back to me and just asked me for contact and shipping information to process. Is this a good sign?

So just as a closure to this thread, Corsair did in fact send me a brandnew 200mm fan at no cost via RMA ticketing. Thanks! Cool company name, cool costomer service.
