Also the my board is brown and ruins the over all look

anyone know if the EKWB-Predator 360mm will fit in the ATX case at top or front
415mm x 133mm x 68 mm LxWxH

I'm curious about this also, but I think it will based on the measurements I've seen.

I hope it's little brother is allowed in here

Some nice looking builds. I really dont see why MSI would make a brown PCB mobo. Surely it would just be cheaper to make all the boards they make black so everyone is happy.

What is this? A school for ants?!?

Who knows, too late to change now. My Windows 10 install is tied to the mobo.

In hindsight (If I'd know the board was brown) I'd have paid a bit more for the Krait in lovely black and white, which would have matched perfectly.

Well the new PWM Fan Hubs arrived, not tried them yet so hope they are ok.

Excellent service from Phanteks though, unlke lots of other companies.

Did you get the updated version?

Yes new version, not tried it yet, but they have sent two of the bare PCB ones, one I have is the version with the plastic cover, don't think it will fit on these ones

FinglisHobbit · 25 Aug 2015 at 17:33

I took the plunge and ordered one of these yesterday. Hopefully come by next week. Bought a Gunmetal grey one after seeing peoples picture. Lots of money for me to spend on a case but since we are gonna be decorating I'd like my pc to look the part

.:SAmSuNG:. · 25 Aug 2015 at 18:03

Its a well built case for the money. Just needs a few tweaks here and there.

I paid £110 so hopefully the quality is good. I dont think I could stomach the £140 in other places.

I do enjoy new builds. Even though I'm just moving my old stuff into it

I'm liking that stealth GPU

Don't worry, there is a Strix 980 in there now

Painting commencing soon, once I get my spray gun through the post

Well still no luck with the replacements, fans don't move.

The replacement ones are the same as the ones I had after checking them apart from they don't have a plastic film to stop them touching the metal case.

Need to try something else, might just stick with a fan controller stuck in the bottom.

I had a replacement controller arrive the other day also. Mine also did not have the protective film to stop it shorting on the case but I used the film off the old controller.

Sadly mine still has the same issue so may look into buying an aftermarket controller.

Don't know what the problem is with them, some seem to work some don't, Thats 4 I've tried now, I got a Modmytoys one which works, just liked the Phanteks as it was smaller, I bought the one with the cover as an extra, but it's a no go one as well, fans don't spin up.

.:SAmSuNG:. · 26 Aug 2015 at 14:46

So the replacement ones you had are 100% the newer revision that I put pics of a page or so back?
