What is the FRAME 4500X?
The FRAME 4500X merges the "fishbowl" design of the 3500X with the modularity of the FRAME Series of cases. What's new is the curved-glass design, which is a first for CORSAIR. The 3500X has a hard 90-degree angle between the front and side panels, so this new design is more sophisticated and elegant.
The FRAME 4500X combines a stunning wraparound glass design with the modular nature of the FRAME 4000D, offering powerful cooling potential, modular design, room for oversized GPUs, and dazzling visuals.. It features a panoramic exterior made from a single piece of glass for unobstructed viewing from any angle.
Elegant Aesthetics
The first CORSAIR case with wraparound glass panels, the front and side panels are made from a single piece of glass, providing an unobstructed, wraparound view of a PC's glorious hardware.
One of the most innovative aspects of the FRAME 4500X is the included side-mounted 120mm fans. These fans use a reverse-rotor design to blow cool air into the case while providing an unobstructed view of the RGB LEDs. This solution ensures optimal cooling and maximum visual impact.
Clean lines cascade like a waterfall over the chassis's exterior, offering generous openings for airflow and a unique look that sets it apart.
Modular FRAME System
The FRAME 4500X is built on the modular FRAME system. This gives you the ability to personalize your case with parts that have different colors, materials, or designs. Customization is what we had in mind when we built this case, so you can make your PC look exactly the way you want it to.

Fan Freedom with InfiniRail
InfiniRail is CORSAIR's innovative fan mounting system, offering unmatched flexibility for positioning fans and radiators. Unlike traditional cases with fixed mounting points, InfiniRail uses adjustable steel brackets that allow users to slide and position fans exactly where needed, supporting sizes up to 140mm on the roof.
Clean Cable Management
Fully compatible with ASUS BTF, MSI Project Zero, and Gigabyte Project Stealth, this design features ample connector and cable cutouts, along with tie-downs to keep your build neat and organized, even where you can't see them. This makes it perfect for showcasing your high-end components without messy cables distracting from the visual appeal.
