I just got mine last week and replaced my raven 2.........why cause i can ahahahahahahh i love it so far yes fit and finish is a bit off, but the good i believe beats the bad...... mine is white too with my sig rig........ remember if any of you want to add another 200mm on top so far the only one that will fit is the NZXT fan it appears to not really be 200mm i know this cause i bought a cooler master 200mm does not fit too big....

 

I'm in.
I pretty much love it, I still need to buy a couple of pieces to get the rig working but I love it so far.

 

I'm really interested in this case but I've heard about some incompatibility issues in terms of mounting the H50. Was just curious about how and where you guys ended up mounting the H50.

 

My Phantom is going to be waiting for me on Christmas day. I also am getting three additional NZXT case fans and sleeved cable extensions for the motherboard, cpu, and the video cards. go me!

You can't mount it if you have the top rear fan installed (the 200mm one). I tried...and the fan hits it.

Actually, I have a H50 and I was able to mount it at the rear without it hitting the top fan. It's against the plastic shroud but it's not impeding the fan itself.

Here are some pictures of my Phantom H50 setup:

 

More pics. Moarrrrrrrrrr

This case is sexy.
Too bad it doesn't have a side window, otherwise I'd be all over it.

Would be pretty easy to replace the mesh with some plexi I would think. Your right though, this case is pretty sweet.

 

In. It is easily the best looking case on the market.

It has plenty of space and cooling too. I'm pretty much in love with it.

You need to get a list going! I'm sure there are plenty of other owners who share our love of the Phantom.

I suppose it's best that it has function over form, with all the fans on the side.

I bet if someone replaced the two bits of mesh with windows and did it well, this case would look absolutely incredible, even more so in fact.

That it would.
I'd buy one with windows for sure.

Yeah too bad indeed, come spring I am going to mod a side window into it.

Maybe NZXT wasn't so consistent during the manufacturing process lol... you can try and file the holes so that the fan/rad can be mounted lower down.

 

Do owner threads need to be approved by a mod before they can be labeled "Official"?

Generally, I'd PM one and see.

A friend of mine is actually doing this for me. I'll get it tomorrow, if it's good I'll post pics!

 

Cable Management.. and yes, I mounted my SSD there.

 

Just wondering, why'd you mount it there? I thought the brackets supported SSD's too? The management is great but the odd SSD placement takes your attention off the great cables.

 

Just noting, the section editors are technically responsible for approving clubs like these; to see who they are, go back to the section, look in the bottom-right corner of the page, and find the members with blue names.

If the editors want, then they can defer that responsibility to me or SmasherBasher; I'd be happy to make this official if it gets long enough legs, or Smasher could be contacted if I'm not around for some reason.

Also please read this regarding "unofficial" threads: http://www.overclock.net/overclock-n...l-threads.html
