Packaging & First Look

Air 540 arrives in an eco-friendly, double reinforced cardboard box. The front features an illustration of the case and lists essential features. Around the back there is a schematic diagram of the case and its various parts.

Inside, the case is covered in a fabric sheet and held in place via dual polystyrene pillars for a safe arrival during transit.


The packaging for Air 540


Air 540 is the result of Corsair pursuing innovation. With a unique design, this case is a representation of Corsair thinking ‘outside of the box’. Air 540 is wider than the traditional case in order to cater for a dual chamber design within the chassis.

On the outside, Air 540 features a large Perspex window on the prominent side to allow for a view inside the system and on the alternate side there is a plain panel with a section of honeycomb mesh for ventilation. This ventilation covers the PSU area, Corsair decided against a dust filter because their rigorous testing revealed very little dust collection in this area, even after long periods of time.
