NZXT Phantom 530 Full ATX Steel Tower Case 3X5.25 6X3.5INT 6X2.5INT USB3.0 *No PSU* - Matte Black
Cons:-The insides of the drive cages can be a bit difficult to deal with, as they are soft plastic-No dust filter on top, although most builds have top exhaust-Power button sometimes won't work when pressed at a certain angle
Pros:+Very roomy, great if you don't work well in tight spaces+Fans are very quiet+Good airflow+Built in fan controller+Light directed at back of case so you can easily see your ports+Tactile power and fan buttons on top of case+Looks nice, black goes with most builds |

NZXT Phantom 530 Full ATX Steel Tower Case 3X5.25 6X3.5INT 6X2.5INT USB3.0 *No PSU* - Matte Black
Cons:Side panels are not locked securely; front and top panels very difficult to take off
Pros:VERY large internal space; allows customization of drive rack; lots of space for additional fans; very quiet Comment:
Nice case both in aesthetics and use. Lots of space for organizing PSU power lines, heavy duty GPU, and large CPU fans. Plenty of holes to allow power lines going to and from back of motherboard / right side of case.Panels are very difficult to take off since few of the plastic locks are actually bigger than the holes they go into.The side panels are not locked securely and always pop out once thumbscrews are taken off |
I'd first like to note that this was used for my first build, so I am less experienced than some other reviewers. With that said, I have had no problems with this case as of yet. It has plenty of space, and can suit many types of builds. The top is a bit hard to access, but the sides are much easier. I've heard people mention that the sides come off easily, but I haven't noticed that problem yet. I picked this case up for just over $100, and I'd definitely recommend it at that price!
