Fantastic case! in Computer Cases

Phanteks knocked it out of the park with this Airflow case. Compared to my old NZXT Switch 810, it's very compact. At the front there is room for a 420mm monobloc Arctic Liquid Freezer II. Snug but still fit. The tempered glass panel attaches with magnets and opens with two hinges - no screws required! The solid plate has captive thumbscrews. There is plenty of space for cable management behind the mainboard tray. It also comes with parts to mount the GPU vertically, although you'll still need…

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Outlet Required

Fantastic product for external components

Great design and aesthetics. Pretty easy to embed. The included three 140mm RGB fans and the RGB stripe on the PSU shroud are amazing and definitely make this case popular. I don't really need RGB but if you do it will definitely make you happy. I bought this case for my daughter. She previously had a Cooler Master Masterbox 5, a great budget case that served her well for 5 years. I gave her my PC components that I built for myself in early 2020 (precovid). That was my first experience with…

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • Some small things

Phanteks rules for external components

No point in going into a detailed review, this is Phanteks top case. I've had many Phanteks cases over the years. This one (the white version from DRGB) is my favorite so far with only one complaint. This case is easy to install and well designed and built. Only one connector on the front for power (DRGB version) which is great unless you need a reset switch. I didn't know my M/B had a reset switch. Included GPU anti-sag bracket that isn't visible (brilliant). A typical Fantex is just a…

Pros
  • High quality construction
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish

I had fun building this

I have a finished HP Gaming PC that I've been upgrading the components of over the past few months. The only issue I had was that my pre-built PC case had terrible airflow. So I bought a new case, disassembled my old computer and put a new case in it. This case is so well built compared to what I had before. It was a pleasure to put this computer together with thoughtful points, build quality and new look. I want to somehow take it apart again so I can start over and install it. Airflow is…

Pros
  • . Done
Cons
  • Good but not great
