Im looking for a large PC case for future build or upgrade,
I will be water cooling with a 360 rad and a single graphics card or sli

I have a Haf-x at the moment but i could do with more room and a change would be nice, I would like the tool less fitting like the haf-x if possible

Im flexible at the moment, the budget £200 or so
I was looking at the cosmos 2 which is around the same size and price
 
Thanks guys, I think I will need room for 3-5 3.5 hdd and 2 2.5 ssd 1-2 blurays, I know most people wont use them but i still do 1 fan controller
 
The primo features 6x 3.5" drive trays which are also compatible with 2.5" drives. Then on the back of the mobo tray/5.25 bays there are 2x dedicated 2.5" brackets for ssd's, (a third bracket can be added as well). 5x 5.25" bays with tool less mounting

Which is bigger the 900D or primo
 
Ive just had a look at the primo its a bit confusing it has a window on one side and the power button and usbs on the opposite side ?
 
Id say the 900D is the larger case. The primo has two windows, the large rectangular one over the main motherboard are, then a smaller one over the hdd plate. The power switch is on the front panel about an inch from the top. Then on the top panel are the usb slots, mic/headphone ports, reset switch and a further button that turns off/on the led strip that runs along the right edge of the top and front.
 
The pro isnt out to buy yet im afraid. We can only go by the reviews online at present. Phanteks are releasing another case along with the pro, known as the enthoo luxe it will likely be priced between the pro and the primo.
 
I can wait a bit, its not like im going to build tomorrow.
Phanteks is making some nice cases and good prices.

I do have some minor issue with it, 1 is the way the 5.25 drivedoor opens, is it possible to open the other way ?

2 the power boot

at the moment im looking at all options, is coolermaster or corsair coming out with a new case ?

I which they would come out with nicer looking cases most at just box shaped.

this is why i like cooler master.
 
On the primo the door only opens one way im afraid. Corsair have the 760T model which should be available soon. Cases are pretty much a personal thing as far as appearance. I prefer the understated box type shapes compared to gamer style cases with lots of lights etc.
