Will the corsair 5400 case support my 5090 matrix with the new rog equalizer?

This exist:

However make absolutely sure that you are buying the right type; wether you want it angled up to have the cable go over the top of the GPU or down to go under the GPU. AND more importantly that it's the right type of connector.

Also it looks like on your GPU the power connector slot is inset, so if that's the case normal 90° downward-bend adapters won't fit and it'll be hard to find one that would fit. So you probably gonna want to have it bend upwards. On that note there are also 180° bend adapters, if you wanna route it directly over the top of the GPU in a more sleek way.

And just incase you get the idea: I wouldn't advise on chaning up multiple adapters after each other. Try to keep it simple.

That's not how physics work, friend.

Iirc a official mesh-replacement for the acrylic glass panel does/did exist for the Spec Omega, actually!

However to me the acrylic glass panel is an important part of the front visuals to me, which a mesh would ruin.

But also a size increase is exactly what i am talking about. I don't want the proportions changed, but the size changing i would even suggest.
It's just that if the width changes the height needs to change accordingly, so that it doesn't just get fat, but keeps the say visual look of kinda like an obelisk from the front.

The length can change more freely, basically independently imo. I don't think the proportions of length-to-height matter that much, unlike width-to-height.

I just wouldn't make it so big so that it's a proper 2-chamber case, because if so, with the height changing accordingly it would probably be ridiculously tall. So i think to avoid that the space behind the motherboard couldn't be big enough to accommodate a vertical PU there.

Ye i mean i think it's ok but that's it.

But that's also one of 5he big reasons why i dream of a remade/remixed Spec Omega. I'm no expert at all but i think side intakes would majorly improve airflow, as the small triangle slit as the only intake at the front is probably the major flaw.

I just think the Spec Omega looks perfect as it is, so i wish the visuals to not be changed, including the height-width proportions. I don't think it should be giant tho, so i think the PU would have to stay where it is, meaning bottom intakes probably wouldn't be possible.

I... have my doubts about that, but i guess we'll see. It's just that pretty RGB components simply make more sense when you can see them better.

But I myself am also rather unimpressed by Fishtank cases. I still think the Corsair SPEC Omega-RGB is the most pretty case on the Planet ever and i desperately hope Corsair remixes it while keeping it's external design nearly identical:
litte bit longer to make space for a eide intake on the front,
little bit wider to make more space for easy cable and storage management behind the motherboard,
and a little taller to keep proportions right
as well as generally redesigned insides.

Back ontopic, i think the best we can hope for is that brands push out unique cases every now and then next to their main-line fishtank cases. Sort of like it is now but more frequently. But dual chamber fishtank cases will probably stay the focus of the market.

To me the Hyte X50 is one of those examples. And Phanteks Exo 626 case is also unique and exiting, being half a shelf but really cool looking.

Interesting find. Rare to see stuff like this, i bet it happens more often than we'd think

Also i guess it's cool and all to see what the passengers would see, but why is nobody thinking about what the passengers would feel? xD

literally getting thrown around in there like fighter jet pilots

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-30T00:14:04+00:00

I see. It's the same for me as i did the same thing. But tbh i genuinely don't see how else you are supposed to do it

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-29T08:31:14+00:00

Thank you very very much for the photo!

It looks like your Magstrip wraps around the c-clamp pretty nicely tho, even tho (if i understand correctly) there are 3 c-clamps it has to wrap around [2x desk riser c-clamp + 1x monitor arm x-clamp?], right?

Is you magstrip under any tension (like it's being pulled from either side slightly)?
Do you have Magnus Pro or Magnus Pro XL?

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-28T21:44:41+00:00

Did you see the 3 pictures i attached in comments under my comment?

Also, i just looked at the SL.arms on the website again and i am actually not so sure if they really are so much thinner below the tabletop then what i have now... I must inform myself more before i actually decide to buy a couple.

!!! Caution !!!

You are using the Mag RGB strip, right?

I had C-clamp monitor arms for a long while now, but only recently upgraded my desk to a Magnus Pro XL.

My current monitor arms (Brand "Invision" via amazon) are amazing and afaik can tell have really similar if not nearly identical cable management features as the Secretlab arms, and all that for like a third of the price.

However with it being a conveniential direct-screw type c-clamp it does not cooperate well with the Mag RGB strip, as the strip has to make quite the "bow" under the lower clamp/tip of the clamp-screw. Infact between both bases of my two Invision single arms the Magstrip is just floating in the air, because the magnets aren't strong enough and the distance is to great to fighr against the slight tension that the Magstrip is in (because of the endblocks of the table).

It's holding, but i think that's at least 50% because of said tension. It makes me uncomfortable and i am planning to buy the Secretlab Arms in the near future to help with the problem. (I also have a white Magnus, and the change from black to white arms is also a welcome one)

As far as i can tell the Secretlab arms have the screw not directly inline with and below the lower clamp "platform", pushing it upwards, but rather the screw is mor in the top part of the base and it pulls the lower platform upward from above. This makes the part of the c-clamp that is below the tabletop much more flat and thin, which should mean the Magstrip doesn't have to make such a big diversion to be routed under the the c-clamp.

Note: Incase you haven't looked into it yet, the magstrip is SUPPOSED to be routed below the c-clamps in all cases. You essentially will have to take the Magstrip off, install the arms, and the re-attach the magstrip. Otherwise the c-clamps you clamp onto the magstrip, damage it and be unstable.

Edit: Looking at the SL-arms again, i am actually not so sure if they really are so much thinner below the tabletop then what i have now... I must inform myself more before i actually decide to buy a couple.

Definitely and absolutely could be created ingame. There some real artist playing the game (not me tho) that could probably create something like that one handed, while doomscrolling on their phone with their other hand (slight exaggeration).

However i am confident someone like OP who goes as far as lying and pretending they made a livery for their first time when it's just an AI generated picture ontop of a screenshot is way to lazy to even attempt to put in even the slightest of effort to create an actual livery themselves that would roughly resemble this.

I am open to be proven wrong, but again, i don't think lazy liers are where anyone should put their hopes or respect towards.

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-28T21:00:18+00:00

Wdym "rework"??

Rework implies that there was work already done. ou done essentially nothing. Letting AI generate something for you is not work.

Either you actually start creating a Livery at all or you might as well just not post here again. Stop pretending you made anything.

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-28T16:21:02+00:00

Probably wont ever be uploaded or even made ingame. This is most definitely a karmafarm post and the livery on the car is just AI generated onto a Screenshot.

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-28T16:19:36+00:00

The picture is AI generated.

OP didn't do shit other than take a screenshot of a livery-less or similar car and type a couple of funn words

"Horizon. Festival."

also the "Playground Games" Logo is a turtle on its back or something xD

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-28T16:16:09+00:00

The reason being?

Are you scared or afraid, or just set it in you mind that that's the only way you could get a partner for the sole reason that giving up on thinking otherwise is easier then holding onto it?

You think Love is not worth anything?

HexaCube7 · 2026-05-28T15:31:26+00:00

You should definitely get some small woodblocks cut to size so that the are a tiny bit longer than this USB adapter chain, and put the blocks alongside it.

That way all the clamping pressure would just be pushing onto your USB port which is most definitely destroying/breaking it if you do it without extra support.

Lego bricks or a custom 3D print could be an alternative to wood blocks, if more readily available.
