Abstract: When NZXT's new Phantom case ($139.99 list) arrived in Ziff Davis Labs recently, someone observed that it looked like something an Imperial Stormtrooper would own. And, well, we could see his point. The version of the Phantom that NZXT had sent us was ...
Silent when on low with good cooling performance, Lots of room, Cable management builtin, Lots of extra parts included, Plenty of room for many hard drives, Very well made,
Doesn’t come with additional fans to utilize fan controller, Tight on back of motherboard for routing cables, No 3.5″ bays, Rubber protectors just pop out easily, can be annoying
The NZXT Phantom is one of the nicest cases I’ve had the chance to review in a long time honestly. Aesthetically it’s certainly unique, it has a look to it like none other really, and I truly like it. Inside you’ll find a lot of room for a lot of st...

I know aesthetically this case isn’t going to be for everyone. I for one like more simple looking cases packed full of features. I have to say that the Phantom first struck me as an odd duck, but the more I got to mess with it and reviewing these im...
PINK (for some it’s a PRO), 5channel fan controller built in, Fan LED control – turn off the lights!, Magnetic door on the front panel to hide those ugly optical drives...
Motherboard power connector doesn’t fit in the cutout in the motherboard tray, Cabling in general a little of a pain, small grommets and low clearances, Paint isn’t a powder coat – I’ve already nicked a few spots around screw holes...
Putting all the pink jokes aside this case was honestly too much fun to review. Hardware wasn’t too difficult to get in the case compared to most. Like I had mentioned before the only real issue I had was with the motherboard power connector not fitti...

There are a lot of things to like about the NZXT Phantom case and as I compiled my list of things I liked it became pretty clear to me that this case was a winner. Probably my top 2 things I liked are the unique design and the reasonable price (available...
Abstract: November is fast approaching. And when I think about November, I tend to associate Christmas holidays that follow right around the corner. Many stores start their holiday shopping season early, and this year will be no different -- with many of them li...
Great Looks, Huge amounts of room, Virtually toolless, Accommodations for external water cooling loops, Room for a dual radiator inside the case...
Finish fingerprints easily, Temperatures not the greatest, adding fans would most likely fix this, Cutout for heatsink access hole may not work on all motherboards...
I must say that the NZXT Phantom is superior in quality and offers many great features. The amount of space on the interior is astronomical and will surely be a great choice for many computer users today, as well as for long periods of time in the fut...
Plastic, glossy exterior can be a fingerprint magnet
From what we have seen of the NZXT Phantom, its designers have certainly come up some interesting and thoughtful ideas. The angular, glossy look is striking at first but it's not that unique. Instead, it's the small details that impressed us. Like having ...
