Phanteks Introduces Its New PC Building Toolkit
Phanteks today introduced their new PC Building toolkit, which the company says is "the only tool-set you'll ever need for your PC building needs". The company is touting a custom selection of tools and bits for PC building (including watercooled systems), which includes a plethora of options.The kit is assembled from full metal pieces (in aluminum and steel); a telescopic extendable shaft for those hard to reach spaces; a flexible extender to further save PC builders' hands and patience from trauma; magnetic tips should make lost screws a thing of the past; and there's even a durable soft shell case to ensure that users don't need to misplace their tools (or instead, misplace the whole kit at once, which would be much more dramatic in the grand scheme of things). These should be all the tools PC building enthusiasts need to have at hand in any given operation with their hardware, and hence, Phanteks are looking to ask for a premium on this kit.The Phanteks PC building kit will be available soon for $19.99, and €19.99 in its respective markets.

Those flexi-spring things are crap and what's the weird allen key for?
And that screw driver isn't really long enough for a good reach without using either extension.
That said, my GPU block is Phanteks, pretty nice block overall, and was reasonably priced when I got it. Also nice that it's for a custom PCB card (Gigabyte Aorus 1080Ti).
PC Toolbox includes dikes, wire strippers, electric meter, small brick type PSU (for starting water umps only), screwdriver sets w/ angled heads and various head types and sizes, , exacto knives, Molex Tools and other pin / connector disassembly tools, Butane torch, shrink wrap cutter, telescoping mirror and magnet for lost screw retrival, chip puller, Dremel, tubing cutter, reamer, acrylic tube bending kit, various types of LocTite, allen wrenches, Exacto "Extra Hands", soldering iron and solder, calipers, PSU "jump" connector,infra-red thermometer, ModMat, Indigo Xtreme and various other cleaners, crimping too (shipped from overseas), heat gun, funnels, G-1/4 fittings, Quik-Disconnects and drain tubing. ... still more I can't remember. I'd have no problem plopping down $20 if for nothing else than replacing what I have with something that collects all that stuff in a nice case.

They of course have discontinued the kit, the only thing it is missing is a driver for motherboard standoffs.
