I have a Phanteks enthoo 719 black case and can only say I am very happy with it. Expensive, but quality is good.

Based on my own experience. Phanteks cases is not a bad choice. All throw my specifically use and need for a dual system in 1 case also was a major factor for the choice of case, I am very happy with the choice.

WTF is "high-performance fabric"?

Apart from that the price looks good for what you get, no kiddie RGB and the solid side panel is cheaper than the tempered glass rubbish. Would've been nice to get another USB-C port instead of two USB-A ones. The dimensions are going to be terrifying, I do hope that they offer a version in white.

Mainly due to the side fans, the typical designed video cooler breaths from were the 3 fans will be pushing air against. You have the fans of your GPU blowing air or trying to blow air at your card and you have these 3 fans blowing at the output of the card.

Brute force cooling wont the fans have to be higher too do that ?.

No dust filters at all ?.

And the 3 fans at the front were you can have them set back in tot he case that would require the front to be sealed so all the air comes from the front.

Are they 90mm fans at the top ?, how ever looks like larger ones could be fitted :).

PSU's in a crappy place.

Everyone's needs are different in the end i know what i would need to keep my system cool when it's 87f+ in this room.

Sure, but they're completely optional.

I think it's a mesh front, which doubles as a dust filter nowadays.

Same place as 99% of cases nowadays.

Actually looking at it again the front does have a filter how ever like i said it's going to pull air though were the less resistance is. From what i can see the front seems to be seal to some point at least.

Problem with having a PSU at the bottom less direct air can get to the video card and your just depending on the front fans.

Because the PSU is on the bottom of most cases don't mean it's good. I find it very hard to believe that having the PSU else were and having 2-3 bottom fans would not make it perform better.

It needs to have a dual PSU option unless I'm missing the mounting spot for the 2nd PSU.

Looks solid and the price is nice as well. Phanteks makes quality cases so you don't have to worry about things not fitting correctly.

The fabric mesh is the filter system they use. Very durable.

I couldn’t resist and I created preorder PH-ES620PTG_BK02 on Caseking :) (plus 9x Phanteks T30 which upgrade my current 9x Noctua NH-A12x25) and I will upgrade from Fractal Design Define 7 XL with custom made Vented Front Panel for Define 7 XL from Coldzero

I was so Hyped for this case, but manual quickly cured me. If you order it with TG version (not for bling, but its easier to see faulty drives LEDs on HBA or error codes through the glass than steel ;) ), then screwing the fan bracket in place will block all the HDD/SSD cages on the side panel.
The left-side fan bracket can be installed in a secondary position to pull air from the front of the
chassis. Secure the fan bracket with 5x screws as shown.
*This position will block the right side fan and HDD positions.
Like WTH? What genius thought of this? Couldn't they make a case which is 2 cm longer so you can put a bracket and populate all HDD/SSD mounting locations. It doesn't make any sense. Also forget about optional 2x5.25" bracket for say ICYDOCK dock 16 SATA/NVMe/SAS drives.

If you want all HDD/SSD/5.25" mounting locations you must order steel door with left panel vents.

I tried to find the quote you shared but couldn’t find it?

Also, why bother? You can have front intakes and the right side intakes with all HDD caddies occupied and just keep the left side fan bracket in it’s weird GPU/chipset cooling position.
