New case!

They also come in all sizes, you can get them in 120,140,200 and 230. So you won't have to mix and match.

Have you thought about getting a:

Corsair 650D
Spectre Pro 120mm x1
Spectre Pro 140mm x2
Spectre Pro 200mm x1

Not a huge fan of the 650D, looks okay but doesn't make me want to spend money on it y'know.. (: While it has better cable routing it would appear(to me atleast) to lose out on potential airflow.

Btw, how do you know the bitfenix won't fit in the phantom?
 
I tried to do it last night myself and had no luck.

I almost snapped my Spectre Pro trying to fit it in the top, but if you are careful it's maybe possible. I'd recommend going for a case that would just fit one in stock if you can.

What about the CM Storm Trooper?
 
I abhor that style haha.

Case is what matters most, I guess I could get another fan style for the slots that don't fit

Did you try out the other slots with that same model of fan btw?

The 120 and 140mm ones will be find as it is a standard size for those. Due to the 200 and 230mm fans being quite new all companies seem to have their own sizes, no one has gotten a "standard" size yet so that is the issue. But if a case says it is 120mm or 140mm and fan will fit there so long as they are not to thick.
 
The fan controller in the Phantom will handle almost anything I think. It has individual control for different panels. But, other than cutting a lot off the Spectre Pro and drilling holes in the Phantom you won't be able to mod the fans in. It does come with one blue LED fan but they are rather loud.

That is the controller they way it works is it controls (from Left to Right):
Back 120mm Fan
Top 200mm x2 Fans
Side 230mm Fan
Side 120mm x2 Fans
Front 120/140mm Fan

Hope it helps.
 
Yeah, do you know if it's possible to hook up more fans to those channels(Has it got slots for it atleast)? Say if I were to stick extra in or for watercooling
