Review on Phanteks Enthoo Chassis Window PH ES614P_BK by Aditya ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

This is my first experience with the Full-tower format, before that there was a regular Midi-tower Cooler Master K280 and with the advent of Noctua NH-D15S I realized that everything is too compact and it will be very difficult to service it in the future. I decided that it was time to replace the 2022 case with a new and difficult choice fell on Phanteks Enthoo Pro Tempered Glass Black. I chose it for the following reasons: - obligatory presence of a compartment 5.25 (yes, I am one of those who still use DVD drives as needed); - full-tower; - strict rectangular design without external highlights; - acceptable price. If you can still argue with the latter (I didn’t find it cheaper), then the corps coped with the rest with a bang. It is a pleasure to assemble a powerful computer into it, although everything was not very smooth with the cabling at the back. The main complaint is not a deep niche for wires, I would like it more for the sake of reducing the space for the processor cooler, for me 193 mm for a cooler is too much, 180 mm would be just right for most. This case is rarely suitable for tables with niches for system units, and I personally had to remove the top cover of this very niche. In general, I am satisfied with the purchase and do not regret the money spent.

Pros
  • Strict style; ease of assembly; good ventilation; fit any tower cooler on the processor; the ability to install more smaller fans, both front and rear; removable dust filters (everywhere except for the back wall of course); fasteners SSD; a bunch of removable sleds for HDD; two fans included (front and rear); box with fasteners divided among themselves; rubberized legs (but this is sometimes a minus, it will not always be easy to move such a colossus, especially if you have a special niche in the table for the system unit); steel; ease of removal of the main glass cover; conclusions in front under a cover; common hub for fans (and for highlighting); smooth (there are no bulging and angular design elements, it is easier to wipe the dust off it); in general, it is possible to conduct wires well (which cannot be said about the rear niche); the motherboard stands are already firmly screwed into the ATX format; the front panel can be easily removed.
Cons
  • The right steel cover, when unscrewed, immediately falls and does not adhere to anything; heavy (in some way this is a plus, but still); there is not enough space for wires in the back (those who have wires in the PSU are too tight will face this problem); complete fans are not 4-pin, however, through the BIOS, you can manually adjust their speed, otherwise they make full noise; I would like a manual in 2022 (not everyone needs it, but it would be a very good advantage); could be limited to two external compartments 5.25; could provide a magnetic plug on the top in the absence of fans, so that dust does not fall inside from above (pure nit-picking has already gone). In general, all my shortcomings will be doubtful for many (and I myself think so in some way), but the higher the price of the product, the more attention to it.

Good case with thoughtful ergonomics for wires, quite heavy, but for me this is not a problem
