me likey. :toast: now they need a black&green one and perhaps black&blue one.

That would be great. My problem is with orange, not with the Phantom of course. The white one is one of the nicest cases out there.

Today we have Orange PC towers...everyone goes "ooooo!"

I wouldn't mind an orange one, but I'd like an Orange/Blue mix. Darker shades tho.

Man, you guys have no taste. The X58A-OC is even uglier than the mobo tray of this case. Pure orange ew, it just gets on my stomach. Wish I had taken a pic of my old generic server case, you know, one of those Super Full towers. Now that's how a case should look like. Plain, cold hard steel. Have a look at the older Chieftec cases (German made), then this. It's a day and night difference. These things look like a toy in comparison.

So you like cases that are heavy, boring, and have no cable management... got it!

I like the case, I think its nice to see an out of the ordinary color scheme and the Orange/Black motherboard someone showed looks great as well, makes my P67 Sabertooth look so bland >.<

It's German you can see it. :toast:
Now this is quality I would pay for, can see they spend time thinking about the case, how the user interacts and what is important.

5* really really nice product.
Would be great if it had some matching quality power supply or a selection of a few that matches this box.

Where do I pay, when can I get delivery. :rockout:

Sounds good maybe a midnight blue or a ?? teal blue green ?? with this orange or a darker tint orange.
Just sad all the nice is hidden beneath the motherboard.

I believe that's a Newegg exclusive too.

Pretty cool how many flavors the Phenom comes in. The only gripe I have with it is that it does not support USB 3.0.

It's German you can see it. :toast:

Actually, NZXT is from Silicon Valley. They used to make plasticy, cheap but affordable and decent cases. There were pretty famous like 5 years ago with their gaming mid-towers. I had the Nemesis and it was a good case despite it's theme. This version of the Phantom however looks like junk. If you're willing to paint it, go ahead. Otherwise, shoot for the white version. ;)

Nice design! T77 could use this for his next freeman case :)
I instantly thought of t77 when I saw this as well! Hah!

These were my first thoughts exactly. :laugh:


I have been saying this for years. :pimp:

I actually like that. Just a lil orange accents and not to over powering. The mobo backing does look a lil bright but your not gonna see much of it anyways.

T77snapshot should be all over this one :)

Hmmmmm... I'm thinking about it. ;)
