Available right now, we have the brand new Phanteks Eclipse P300 in stock. The P300 is the smaller brother of the immensely popular P400, keeping a lot of desirable features whilst managing to hit an extremely competitive pricepoint. The P300 has a full tempered glass side panel, along with a completely metal exterior for a premium look straight out of the box. Something that's cool in particular is that the PSU shroud forms part of the exterior, meaning the system looks much cleaner as a result. This is rarely seen and I think it actually looks better than the standard PSU shrouds employed by most other cases. Inside we have sufficient space for ATX motherboards (E-ATX up to 275mm wide), 330mm VGA Cards, 160mm CPU Coolers, 197mm PSU's (including cabling) and a 280mm front radiator, along with a 120mm space at the rear, that is occupied by a Phanteks high performance 120mm fan. There is space for up to 4 x 2.5" drives, with 2 on the rear of the motherboard tray (1 of which requires the optional 2.5" SSD tray), and either 2 x 2.5" or 3.5" drives in the PSU shroud (accessible by removal of the front panel).

RGB lovers are not disappointed, with an RGB strip on the front part of the PSU shroud, along with an RGB power button, and compatibility with Asus Aura Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion and MSI Mystic Light Sync is included, along with all Phanteks RGB products (using the optional RGB Adapter that we offer, or included in the starter kit) Control is by a button on the I/O panel, which also has 2 x USB3.0 and the usual audio ports. Theres even dust filters included throughout and a 35mm cable management compartment at the rear of the case to help with routing cables neatly.

To put it simply, I don't think there is a better case on the market for £55 or below. Phanteks have really knocked it out of the park with the P300 and we fully expect this to be an extremely popular case. Buy yours today!

Air flow via the front looks very poor.
Only 120/140mmmm top fan support isn't great. Why does it not support 2 x 120mm at least? there is room for it surely.

Not a fan of the front ports actually being on top, not on the front. My computer sits on my desk, i don't want to have to stand up to access the usb ports.

Also with the ports on the top, the 'face' looks rather uninspiring apart from a bit of mesh round the edge.

Looks (in the pics) can be deceptive. At the front's bottom there is a big gap for air (as well as the vents on the top). But that bottom gap is where most of the air comes in, filling the entire space (top-to-bottom) between front panel and dust filter, similar to the P400 which actually performs quite well for airflow/cooling.

Of course, it would need a front fan or two adding, if used with very hot components.
