Phanteks Introduces Enthoo Pro 2 Case with High Performance Fabric

Phanteks today announced the successor to the original Enthoo Pro case, the Enthoo Pro 2. Just like its predecessor, the Pro 2 is a full-tower PC case built for the professionals and enthusiasts. With increased space, enhanced versatility and state-of-the-art features, it's now the perfect solution for the modern workstation.

High airflow performance is central to the new Enthoo Pro 2. The front panel is designed with Phanteks' innovative "High-Performance Fabric" to deliver more airflow through than other conventional metal mesh and provide exceptional cooling in a full-tower package. The design story continues inside the Pro 2 with the versatile interior that brings an extensive scope of high-end configuration options.
Earlier today we posted an in-depth review of the Enthoo Pro 2

Based on the Enthoo 719 interior, the Enthoo Pro 2 comes with professional features with 15 fan locations, dual 480 radiator support, massive storage capacity (up to 12x HDDs / 11x SSDs), and dual-system support (out of the box).

The Enthoo Pro 2 and Enthoo Pro 2 Closed will be available later this month. The Enthoo Pro 2 will retail for $139.99 / €139.90 / £124.99 while the Enthoo Pro 2 Closed will retail for $129.99 / €129.90 / £115.99.

The previous Enthoo Pro haed support for 140mm fans and a 420MM up top. Without the 5.25 drive bays I could see a 420MM up front too the front side does look pure 120mm though. One thing I have always been impressed about Phanteks cases is the build quality and attention to detail.

ahh so THAT's how people are cleaning that fabric mesh, good idea. I have always pulled my metal filters and rinsed them under the sink, dry off with a towel. I do like the looks of the fabric but was curious on how to clean them.

rinsing is just as convenient.

The original Enthoo Pro was an excellent case but in the one build I've ever used it in, I couldn't help but feel it was vast. Far too big for almost anyone, and honestly wastefully large for the 'EATX' build I was making at the time. This one seems to be keeping up with traditions. It's 78L of true SSI EEB compatibility and if you have no space constraints and will never, ever move it from where it is being built, then it still seems like a great option.

"15 fan locations, dual 480 radiator support, massive storage capacity (up to 12x HDDs / 11x SSDs), and dual-system support (out of the box)"
Honestly, there should be a public shaming for anyone using the Enthoo Pro 2 with a regular ATX board; so much of the case would just be wasted!

I use the crevice tool on the vacuum at the same time I'm using it in the corners.
Naysayers will say dumb things like "OH NOES, THE STATIC ELECTRICITY FROM THE VACUUM WILL MURDER YOUR PC" but the whole PC case is electrically grounded. Unless the ground wiring in your house is faulty, nothing will happen, and if it is faulty you have much bigger problems than whether your PC just bluescreened....

I just rinse mine too on the p600s and set in front of fan, gets it super clean.

Hence the vastness..:)

If you build a dual system rig, all that space will come in quite handy....but yea, a single ATX build would be hard to justify in this box...unless you wanna put in a M.A.S.S.I.V.E. multi-chambered w/c set-up that is :roll:

The only bad thing about lint rollers is that they could potentially allow a static charge build-up, which is not ideal for any electronic system.... I have been rinsing my mesh filters for more years than I care to count, neveranottaproblemo ! Canned air works for a quick fix too in some instances...

Massive case and still a design fail.
They should have added at least 25mm to the height above the motherboard so the radiator and fans don't overlap the motherboard.

At least there are 4 USB-A ports. There's this horrible trend starting to appear where companies go out of their way to provide just one. Like - the header supports two so they're intentionally making internal cables for a single USB port that connect to a double header on the board.... :banghead:

I vacuum mine, anything that won't come free via the vacuum (with micro brush) isn't going to come off without washing it.

I really like the fabric mesh, it's much nicer looking than just bare metal mesh imo.

Yup

Always prefer 2 Type-A USB instead of Type-A + Type-C
I found myself not using the front mounted Type-C.

It is just too stiff for USB sticks.

Also, all of my Type-C data cables are USB-A on the host end anyway. The only C-C cables I have are from wall-socket chargers to devices.
