Heres 2 pics of my build so far. You guys might think my way of buildings pcs is a tad odd, cos I install everything and sort out my cables before installing the board. I will post more pics tomorrow when build is completed.

1 thing tho, there's not much space between the motherboard tray and the side panel, because I had to hold the side panel while I secure it with the thumb screws

I'm looking at this for my next case. The plastic puts me off but as long a sit doesn't feel tacky I'll grab it. Hopefully by the time I buy it the price will have come down a fair bit, I don't really want to spend over £100 for a plastic case.
 
Heres 1 other pic for you guys before I go to bed,,,,,, its spaghetti junction:D

I cannot make the other side any tidier, there's just too meny cables. I would have gone for a modular psu, but Im building this for someone and I doubt he would have wanted to pay extra for a modular psu

Agreed with Fozzy. Looks like it's got some good cable management. Feel good quality to you?

The phantom feels really good quality, even the plastic bits feels solid, Might have to buy 1 for myself:D

Ah yeh,, Mine hasnt a front fan, or I dont think it has one. Will take the front off tomorrow to check for sure.

Seems like a decent case with good cable management. Also seems like a smart idea to sort the cabling first might have to start doing that myself :D
 
its solid,best i have seen in ages

Yeah it is,, and it coated in foam on the inside of the door too.

I can confirm the case has no front fan and it says in the specs that it has 1 included on the front:confused: So mine has a rear, top and 2 side fans, and 3 fan controll fan leads that are not connected to any fans, but cant see where these connect to. so Im guessing they are for the optional fans for the case, but this means 3 of the fan controls on the case wont do anything:confused:
