Reverse Motherboard Compatibility with CORSAIR Cases

The introduction of reverse connector motherboards from GIGABYTE, MSI, and ASUS marked a welcome innovation in the PC industry. It simplified cable management, improved aesthetics, and made the building process easier.

Recognizing these benefits, we ensured that CORSAIR cases could take full advantage of this new standard. Additionally, any CORSAIR case compatible with reverse connector motherboards remains fully compatible with traditional motherboards too.

How do we Make our Cases Compatible with Reverse Connector Motherboards?

Simply put, we punch additional holes into the motherboard tray that match up with where the connectors are positioned on these motherboards.

However, MSI Project Zero, GIGABYTE Project Stealth, and ASUS BTF each use slightly different connector positions. This means that a case designed to work with just one of these standards will not necessarily work with the others.

When we first added reverse motherboard compatibility to our cases, we only supported MSI Project Zero and ASUS BTF, but that's no longer the case.

All reverse motherboard compatible cases from CORSAIR are now validated to work with GIGABYTE Project Stealth, ASUS BTF, and MSI Project Zero.
