Phanteks Enthoo Pro Computer Case

Am I blind

or does the official site of PHANTEKS say 'Phanteks Enthoo Pro Full Tower Chassis'?

 

Yes, it is a full tower, is a small mistake in the video.  :)

I just picked up this case for an upcoming build. At first I was looking at the Corsair Obsidian 450d but when I discovered this case, nothing really came close with regards to its features per price point.

Was thinking this was a good contender for my next case but then I saw the price was the same as a h440. Sooooooo Nope nope.

A friend asked me for my preferred brand of case when he asked me to build a computer for him. My response, Phanteks. Linus is right, they really are playing with the big kids like Corsair, Silverstone and Fractal Design now. They just need a slightly bigger line-up (Which is on its way)

Beautiful looking case.  I really like how the front of the case gives you the option for either 200mm or 140mm fans.  Does anyone know if the front can support 120mm fans as well?

 

EDIT*  It does indeed support dual 120mm fans in the front.

1:20 You call it a midtower however NCIX Lists it as a Full Tower, Who mislabeled?

Linus mislabeled.  It is a Full Tower.

Okay, so the looks of this case aren't quite my taste but man, that is an AMAZING performer for the price, so I'll keep this one in mind nevertheless. The stealth covers are awesome! Now I'm definately excited about what Phanteks will come up next.

Great review, btw - you just get better and better at this!

Why don't you give me that case, I can't afford to buy a new one and you see what I'm working with.

Really looking forward to the Enthoo Evlov. Want to do my first water-cooling build in one. 

 

Like this case and the value it offers but I really want to go mATX next :D

What is the maximum PSU length for this case?

Watch this video, it breaks down almost all of the radiator options.

 

 

One thing he doesn't mention, is that you can mount a 240mm radiator onto the hard drive cages if you remove the PSU shroud, and have a short enough GPU.  I have an EVGA GTX 780 SC, and I have 3 inches of clearance between the card and the screw holes on the HDD cages.  Plenty of space to mount a slim-ish radiator + 25mm fans.

He showed some thick radiators, but didn't really show it from the side. What's the clearance anyways up top to the motherboard?

I don't remember off the top of my head. Each motherboard is different of course, but I think it's a lot. Ask on the OC.net Enthoo Pro Owners Club and someone will have a better answer for you.
