If you have a big radiator in bottom raising case up 30-35mm helps too. Bottom is even more restricted than top. ;)

I would love to find a source of Hexagonal hole punch metal mesh in reasonable sizes and prices to make some new grills. H4.5 T5 is 81% open. That's the best I've seen.. and 4.5mm is small hole :D

I thought that exact thing when I first bough mine, but after raising it up by about 2.5 inches, I didn't see any temperature gains, there might have been a few degrees in it but nothing that made me notice.

I won't go back though, my those wheels are handy

Doyll's wheels have been the best few quid I spent during the build, spinning it round to do cabling etc was so much easier.

Has anyone attempted to mod the front power switch LED yet? I've done the strips but haven't ventured into the power switch LED.
 
Just a heads up, a Monsta 480 will fit up top in push pull, with an MSI Z87 MPower, and Avexir ram. I bought a 480 to replace my bottom 420, as the gap between the rads end tank, and the front fans to me looked awful.

So out of curiousity I thought I'd try the 420 up top, and it fits, all be it a bit snug. I had to push ever so slightly, to get it in, due to the res bracket, but as long as you make sure it is fitted first, the rad slots in a treat. I think it looks pretty sick, having matching rads top and bottom, it adds a nice touch of simetry.





I'm in the middle of sorting out my loop order, What do you think of the little curve from cpu, to gpu, and my idea for the top to bottom rad, long staright run, and the top out let going through the flow meter, going back to pump, almost mirroring the joining rads. I'm a little unsure of both ? The hose coming off the flow meter is just hanging to get an idea, once I'm decided it will be straight.
 
I've been seeing the Rev.2 for months but never a word about what the difference might be... which leads me to believe very little if any difference.

I'm interested in the special editions to. I like the idea of black outside and colour inside.

Also interested in the Enthoo Luxe.
 
I've heard MSRP of $139 USD.
Enthoo Primo MSRP $249.99 USD & £199.99.
If Enthoo Luxe is similar ratio it will be about £112.00.
That's a lot of case for for the money.
 
It does look like incredibly good value. Tbh im even very surprised at the price of the primo. £199.99 is a bargain when you consider it's size, the amount of features and attention to detail. There are many full tower cases costing a lot more that are somewhat spartan with regards to features.
 
Indeed. £199.99 with 5x fans worth over £60 and PWM controlled fan hub worth another £15 for starters. Add water pump mount, reservoir mounting plate and all the customizable versatility and user features like light switch, velcro cable management, etc. and it's a very good value.. and Luxe has most of the same.

Add to that how good Phanteks customer support is and it becomes almost unresistable. :D
