NZXT Phantom Review & Demo! Full Tower Case

[@Joshimuz]

@watuphomi Its means your going to have to completely un-build, then rebuild a computer. Unless you've done it before I wouldn't recommend it.

[@x14Epiphany14x]

Love your Reviews, your so fluent and so detailed! you should show us what it looks like when its finished

[@lennardw]

Hey. This tower is really epic, i bought one too. But my Fan control isnt working. Do the Fan control needs a Power plug? Or it is damaged? Pls Help me! Thanks

[@onomatopoeia162003]

did ya figure it out?

[@lennardw]

Nicholas A. Yeah. Finally ;)

[@onomatopoeia162003]

Lennard Wenzel thats good to hear

[@kingdavid1029]

what do you do im having the same problem

[@yutubemedia]

@URreadingThis1 Bit of pause issue in between clips, but otherwise thanks! Some I buy, some Get provided for review. This phantom was provided for review.

[@Rivvum]

you say a GPU of 13 inches. My EVGA gtx 780 is 32.8cm which is 12.9133858 inches. Will it fit without having to take out HHD cages cause I plan to add 2 HHDs and 1 SSD.

[@leeabrahams9889]

I can't get the top panel off. How did you do it?

[@EvTHDD]

got my gaming pc with this case yestorday, its awesome

[@TechRefreshed]

What program did you use to edit this video? Im coming from a mac so I need something with these nice features.

[@BlazeTc1402-7]

How do you open the upper part that leads to the big fans? I'm too afraid because I have two left hands...

[@yutubemedia]

@skarmflames No, I never seen his video. Its been around for a while, I think I found it on amazon.

[@tessierpower]

Newer Designs SUCKS man... now this was a heck of a computer case. Todays translucidus pc cases have no style....

[@isaiahmclaughlin9214]

Yo. Ima noob to pc building but i just gotta one question. when i use this case to build my desktop will I need a pc tool kit or can i install all the components with my hands

[@xetion9573]

Should be able to install with your hands

[@yutubemedia]

@Delcaroll Well its different conversion rates.140 US dollars = 813 Norwegian kroner

[@yutubemedia]

@deadzo24 Exactly! Thanks. question, how many GB is your 5970? I got the 2gb 5870

[@yutubemedia]

@jbeathat Really? How funny. Its a great case! You can build quite a rig with it.

[@louisaccardi4332]

Just as a throw it out there not sure if anyone has mentioned it. i just bought this case about a month ago. the side 200mm fan option can also fit a 230mm fan or a 180 cpu heatsink support but the side fan cannot be there. i did not know about the fan light button on the back. i was getting rather upset that i could not figure out how too turn on the lights. thank you.

[@yutubemedia]

@x14Epiphany14x Thanksss. I will be sure to new a video on the finished rig

[@ThinkKritz]

Eh? What junk. Please, sir be more specific. Also if that is such junk what are your specs? If it's the gainward that is junk than I agree and I've changed it out for a gigabyte gtx 680 oc. The asrock is also a bit overpriced so maybe I'd get an asus mobo... but please sir do elaborate on how my planned rig is "junk".

[@yutubemedia]

The link is in the description, they have all the colors. Its on newegg

[@Jdawgin13]

Hey I made the mistake a few years back of buying the Alienware X51 because i didnt know much about computers back then. I was wondering if it is possible if I bought a tower if I could transfer over all the parts? Also I could really use help with learning compatibility of the parts if anyone could help

[@francaisemode]

beauty and the beast is a great movie !!!!!!!!!!!!! 666QE666 i'm both. LOL sorta. i'm getting the PINKLADY wazaaaaaaaaaaaa XD in europe it is about E 140. euro's are still more worth than us dollars. but let's not talk about politics now, i'm gonna do something else instead for now XD LOL CHA CHA CHA VIVE LA FRANCE

[@pikabko1]

I ordered the black case. I was looking foward to get it and what UPS is to fucking lazy to delver it. all ways UPS give me bad time so I told UPS send back to sender and I contacted the seller for a refund. hat the point of buying a full tower and pay 60.00 UPS fees. to ship it and UPS refued to do there job .

[@billybadass3056]

and the case is still going strong... BUT there's no more fan support and the fans are not 200 they're 193 which u can only get from NZXT themselves since the fans are DISCONTINUED...... except for the few they might have laying around.

[@ThinkKritz]

Could I fit an asrock z77 extreme 6 motherboard, intel i7 3770k, conland cpu cooler, 2tb HDD, 8GB and a gainward gtx 670 in this? Thanks. :)

[@ORIGINALKINGIRAT]

I currently have a Antec 1200 V3 Black Steel and i'm thinking about exchanging it to this one due to fan issues. Not sure how much of an upgrade it would be though. I really like the design of the phantom but i would rather not spend a months worth of food on a tower that's not up to snuff compared to my old one. Would grabbing a Phantom be worth it compared to my old tower?

[@xetion9573]

No. Try something new like the corsair 760T etc

[@CosmicSpacePenguin]

Are all fans 200mm? Im getting this case but the black/orange version and want to add more case fans. Do i add 200mm ones or what? And one more question, are the fans that come with the case orange led??? Please help

[@louisaccardi4332]

+CosmicSpacePenguin i know this is old but he states in the video what size the fans are. newegg also gives great overviews of the products like these.

[@yutubemedia]

@wsharpxna Some videos I record over, and some I dont. You can tell this video I recorded my voice over it after recording.

[@Prence]

Are the expansion slot covers replaceable? This is a nice case but if the slot covers can't be put back on, then I'm going to pass.

[@ThinkKritz]

Not bad. So the asrock is the junk? Yeah they are kind of pricey. Maybe I'll get an asus or a gigabyte. :|

[@yutubemedia]

@TheFatalforce I just added the link to the description. It actually JUST dropped to $99 for a limited time on newegg

[@gamermanj4]

how does the front panel usb/esata conect to mother board headers or that crap where it runs around back ?

[@AiAdvice101]

Will someone tell me please, how do I connect the included case fans? The fans are 3-pin male connectors, and my motherboard has 4 pin male connectors as well.

[@hongyen324]

.-. If you havent figured it out yet. The 3 pin has notches that guide it into the four pin

[@ThinkKritz]

Thanks. I should save the money and get an equally good motherboard from asus or gigabyte

[@TripleDStudios8]

Do you need extra fan really? I'm doing heavy video editing but I'm not too sure whether another fan is necessary or just a nice thing to have

[@TripleDStudios8]

***** thanks!

[@yutubemedia]

@marquesbrownlee Nice, I was going to wait for the Sandy's also, But couldnt resist to wait any longer.

[@DerangedSloth555]

@LeReVaQ Unless you don't have any hdd blocking, you could install something like 6990

[@Isamudyson84]

asus p8z77-v Pro mobo, same chip w/stock cooler, 2x4TB WB black HDD, 32GB DD3 Corsair Dominator, corsair HX1050 gold, 2X Corsair Force 240gb SSD, EVGA GTX 660 FTW, and I ended up changing all the stock fans and making sure I have all 7 fans on the case, with the green LED option, of course. Stay away from asrock. Might as well go for an amd build if you are using asrock.

[@keatonsmith8308]

I got it it's about 2ft tall it only comes in red white and black

[@floatinggoat69]

Ok, I have a PC Build that easily fits a Mid-tower case. I'm looking to change cases since the one I have consumes dust like crazy.I don't really know if I should buy this case or the 410 (mid version) because I do not want to buy a case with a fan on the side. Please help me. Thanks.

[@Axtinguisher]

Lol i have had my phantom for 2 weeks and i still didnt know about that fan led light switch on the back or the latching middle screw for the side panels THen actual manual the comes with the case is pretty close to useless. CHeers :) BTW highly recommend the case!

[@JonL1986]

me and a buddy are getting this case, im getting white and naming it the Nirvash, and he's getting the black one and calling his the End, the main mechs from the anime Eureka Seven. As soon as i saw them that was the first thing that came to mind lol...

[@yutubemedia]

@NifeInx 7 Fan vents, yap.

[@yutubemedia]

@MichaelJavert True, but for the most part its an awesome case. You have Valid points though.

[@hellopants123]

phantom 410 is basically the same, but for if you don't need all the space, say if you are just building an ATX single GPU build, the phantom 410 would probably be more appropriate.

[@charmen110]

Where do the fans on the case plug into? Do they have separate cables for each because I dont know how many 4 pins my Supply has and I just want to make sure it can handle it,

[@skarmflames]

i was going to get that. Did you hear it from PCwizkid thats who i heard it from.

[@Isamudyson84]

It's not just the price, asrock sucks total ass in all respects. Gigabyte is fairly decent. I usually recommend my clients go with an intel board, or an Asus board.

[@nusferatum]

Hello, Im in the market for a tower but im not sure if this case would fit 2 asus gtx 970 strix.

[@danielgrawert213]

If still interessted, yes it should definetly fir this pair.

[@IWantMyVisionBack]

How much did you pay for it? I'm thinking on either the black or white, and can get it from newegg for $119.99 with $10 off with a promotional code.

[@greedyn00b]

It comes with 1x120mm at the rear, 1x200mm blue LED at the top, 2x120mm on the side. You can add another 200/230mm on the side and a 120/140mm in front.

[@Greendioblo]

I have no idea how to install the 140mm in the front bottom. the screws cant go in due to the HDD trays behind the holes.

[@peedeaonta]

I have the nzxt 921 rb an my two r9290s won't fit this is a huge case they should fit in here with ease right

[@xetion9573]

Hard drive cages?

[@TheNarrow99]

Entra el Cooler Master V6 GT con el cooler lateral de 200 puesto ? Enter the Cooler Master V6 GT with the cooler side of 200 post?

[@yutubemedia]

@tarunsais haha, well Im just sick of camtasia lagging so much on my laptop. hehe

[@ShotgunShelly24]

@iBeEpic12 ORANGE? Whats all this about?? only other edition i saw besides the red, while and black was the green trimmed one.

[@overlyattachedbean1050]

Has anyone converted the 200mm fan area to a window?

[@Explorerof3]

can also be a 230mm fan, so I guess they wanted to leave the decision to the user if he wants a 200mm or a 230mm fan...

[@MrEvisc3rator]

thank god I saw this review, was gonna buy a fan control for it, but then you showed me taht it already has one :D thanks

[@dmxdex]

You said the case doesnt have a a removable motherboard tray. It however already has a cut out for those akward coolers.

[@thechachaguy]

does the wires come with the case ? im going to build my first pc and i dont know so much about how to wire and such stuff

[@LeReVaQ]

Can you get space with a Radeon HD 6970 and 5970..? How long is the length (from the back until it hits the HD place..?)

[@yutubemedia]

@FLORENAS yap!

[@ShotgunShelly24]

@iBeEpic12 DANGIT! that sounds pretty sweet, but i already got the black one :) and no wonder its out of stock...

[@Delcaroll]

@jmpatinhas15 whuut for example if i buy from ebay and the person selling is in the us the shipping is like 200$

[@yutubemedia]

@productfeedback Thanks! first case review, i think it went alright...

[@yutubemedia]

@marquesbrownlee Thanks, me to! Have you got yours up and running yet?

[@TotalPwnage777]

@mattondang actually you are thinking of the Phantom 820 which comes in white, black, and gunmetal grey.

[@h7f1]

It's easily perfect but it misses front USB 3.0 :(

[@clooterus4456]

Mine does.. I have this case. Both being sub 3.0

[@TheChillStudyCorner]

Should be getting this case on my new computer this spring :D

[@iBeEpic12]

@ShotgunShelly24 It's a newegg exclusive. However it's out of stock ATM so it won't show up in list.

[@megakiller999]

I am now in love with this case. i saw it on frys.com when i was looking for some upgrades for my last build. the only thing i dont like is the lack of front side USB ports but i have some splitters to fix that problem. any attachment recommendations?

[@BleadProductions]

Does anyone recommend a certain motherboard for this case Price Range: 100-250 (Preferably Intel)

[@omegakek1]

I heard there was a switch to turn off the LEDs. Does it turn off all the LED lights or just some?

[@yutubemedia]

@mohdleader As always, links are in description, it tells you there.

[@LinkFanIMasterReach]

Man i wish they would make the lighting on it blue and sell it. or can i request a custom case?

[@deathschoice]

awesome review man keep it up but how much does it cost cuz i think im gunna go buy one now :)

[@yutubemedia]

@JCCsProduction Yap, sure is!

[@TheAltDreamerManz]

You could probs replace the led's if you know what you're doing. They're fairly cheap to buy.

[@TT01RCDrift]

Really awesome job on this video. I love this pc case. Btw, what kind of video editing software do you use? It looks really cool. Thanks! :)

[@lllTurralll]

@MichaelJavert True but don't you think you get more USB ports when you have a mothercard?

[@namastesahib94]

Is it possible to mount a different sized fan in the optional top 200mm fan position?

[@productfeedback]

enjoyed this video, liked.

[@yutubemedia]

@pidgei YEs it will, thats a nice CPU cooler by the way

[@cscrignaro]

The case I ordered is black with orange trim and LEDs

[@TJrock1414]

Isn't the front intake a 140mm? It says it on NZXT's website.

[@aliha9123]

@yutubemedia what...... you can buy a video game for 600 kroners i live in norway

[@NightOfTheLiving8bit]

Fantastic case! Just ordered the newer version for like $120 on NewEgg. I'd say that for the price, it can't be beat. I picked up the White/Red one to match my MSI Z87 G45 Motherboard.

[@lennardw]

Hey. This tower is really epic, i bought one too. But my Fan control isnt working. Do the Fan control needs a Power plug? Or it is damaged? Pls Help me! Thanks

[@lennardw]

***** works for me now

[@lennardw]

There is a power connector for the fan control, I don't know the exact name of it but it's an old connector. Just remove the top and the front plastic thing and follow the wires of the fan control.

[@lennardw]

But it could be a different issue. I was just to stupid to find the connector back in the days ^^

[@Isamudyson84]

Why would you put such horrible junk (besides the cpu) in such a great case?

[@CatchysAdventures]

I'm actually buying this case but in white, it is a wonder full case and i love the cable management section as it has heaps of room.

[@guslee2176]

where are you able to get this case because I cant find it on pc case gear?

[@lifeinmyopinion3229]

Do you have a build in that case? If so, would you mind posting the specs ;)

[@aliananza1990]

Really good review best one i found i now knownit comes with led fans thnx

[@yutubemedia]

@RSsipthis Thanks, wasnt sure how it would come out

[@robert.extremrobert2097]

Can an asus maximus vii ranger fit in the case ??? Please HELP !!!

[@RAWRitsFREDASAURUS]

would you recommend this case over the phantom 410 for a simple pc build?

[@nik6069]

@yutubemedia dude thats unreleated, its because of the different markets.

[@jmpatinhas15]

@Delcaroll buy online the shipping will cost about 20-30euros i think...

[@Delcaroll]

aw crap....in us its only 140 $ lol here over in norway its around 220$

[@bikelifechris69]

this was my first pc case and build back in 2012 good old days

[@sylvainh2o]

yeah i streched my old Pc it
