Specifications
The Corsair Carbide 330R Titanium Edition Quiet Mid-Tower case is designed for gaming and enthusiast grade desktop PCs with a focus on usability, excellent cooling options and quiet operation. It features a hinged front door and comes with two internal cooling fans pre-installed. The two notable features that differentiate the Titanium Edition from the standard 330R is the brushed aluminum front door panel (gun metal gray, Titanium) and a 3-speed fan control switch located behind the front door.

Not at all. It serves its intended purpose very well.
You can quite easily have a virtually silent office PC during the day and turn it into a killer gaming rig at night.

I love my 650D except for the HD trays. PITA to get out. Unless something has changed in the design, looks like not much changed there.

Very similar to the Antec P100 except for video card length and the reversible door.

I bought this case during the Black Friday sale, although the black edition. I am most pleased with it except for two things. The first is space. I had to saw off a portion of the HDD cage to fit both my R9-290s, which is about the same length as a 970 Strix from Asus.
The second is that the dust filter on the underside is laughable and falls off right away. You can use screwdrivers to put it in place, which I did, but the default magnetic solution is terrible.
However, on temperatures and acoustics, it’s an amazing case. It’s also quite light, which is a bonus if you have to move it somewhere, such as like a LAN.

All and all a good review. It would be nice to see more emphasis placed on the cases ability to house an SLI/Crossfire config (two card) and resultant temps. Thanks for taking the time to perform this review.

I own the original 330R.
With 2 140mm intake fans, 120mm exhaust fan and an AIO CPU cooler, two GTX 780 Classifieds work… but temps are really high in SLI. Worst case scenario you are thermal throttling.
Overclocking the Classies with the side on is almost out of the question. Not enough airflow. The second card gets the brunt of it, as is usually the case. No pun intended.
Perhaps a couple of 970’s or 980’s wouldn’t be so bad, overclocked they probably would be close.
I think the best possibility for stable, lower temp SLI or Crossfire in a 330R would be reference cards with blower fans which exhaust the heat outside the case, rather than custom cooling that dumps the heat into the case.
For overclocked SLI I would look at water blocks and a custom loop. But if you’re going to do that why buy a 330R?
