13 year old Carbide Series Air 540 still looks good

The Corsair Carbide air 540 PC cabinet, was a pioneer of its time. While it wasn't the first cabinet to have a dual chamber for improved cable management and airflow, it is widely known to be the one that brought it to the mainstream market.

I absolutely love it, and it only felt natural that I keep using it. Even though she's 13 years old, her design still holds up to this date. The black and white industrial design, with a "breathing" blood red front end, makes her look menacing and I've dubbed her "Submarine Blackout".

Her new specs are:

Motherboard: Gigabyte B650 GAMING X AX V2

Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 9700x

Graphics card: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

RAM: 32GB G-skill 5600hz DDR5 CL36

PSU: BeQuiet! Pure Power 12 M 850W

Storage: KIOXIA EXCERIA PLUS G3 1+2 TB m.2 NVME

Processor cooling: Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE

A true battle-submarine of a computer, and I couldn't be happier!
