Phanteks P200A 2021 ITX case

Anyone seen the review that hardware Canucks has done? Looks decent, I’ve always wanted a refresh of the Evolv x in ITX form, could be on the horizon?

The P200A looks good, if you can get past the “big” for ITX.

Meh - if you're going to spend the premium for an ITX motherboard you might as-well do it properly with an smaller case.

At this size, it's worth just going mATX.

Interesting case, better than their other ITX cases but too big.

I've gone through different itx cases. In the end id rather go for a slightly larger case that offers better cooling.
The phanteks looks fantastic and psu location allows the video card to breathe better.
I've just bought the razer tomahawk mini itx

though with Aorus doing a 4 slot GPU for nvidia and most likely AMD... these cases wouldnt work haha

I'm not certain if I like that. PSU at the top? Brave of them to buck the trend.

It looks like the lovechild of the P400A & the 011D mini.

Meh.

It's basically a Metallic Gear Neo Mini facelift, but a bit taller to support the current trend of chonky GPUs. I'm sure it'll be a fine case. But it's hardly exciting, and I can't help but wonder if it's a few minor adjustments away from fitting MATX boards.
