*** The New Cases Gallery ***

New case arrived today - very clean.

My Plan of attack short term is to:

*Tidy up the cables for the CPU fans
*Wrap the SSD's in sticker bomb vinyl - random gaming images etc
*Modify the Geforce logo to make it white - will require dismantling and sanding the green paint off the logo
*Replace the top two fans with plain black ones OR replace the rear & front three fans with the white LED corsair fans I already have.
*Install NZXT Hue + for lighting

Longer term plans:
*SLI
*CPU water cooler - probably corsair OR full custom loop if I am feeling brave.

EDIT: Just realised I forgot to plug in the fan hubs PWM cable so the chassis fans are going on max speed. Very quiet to be honest but I think I will plug that in tomorrow so I can control all the case fans.

PWM cable plugged in now to the NZXT fan controller - absolutely fantastic piece of kit. So simple and so effective.

Also stickerbomb SSD's done :) Simple but funky lol

Got a admit, did not like the manta from reviews. But that build all together looks really great. Nice job.

Well it certainly looks nice but my issue with the case is that you get none of the benefits of a small iTX case with all the restrictions of a iTX motherboard, so I don't really see the point of it.
 
They NEED to release an MATX or even ATX version of the Manta, although based on its current ITX proportions I shudder to think how big an ATX version would end up being... they'd have to call it the SHAMU!
 
New case arrived yesterday so filled it up and think it looks really nice and what a joy it was to work in, so much room inside.

Just need to get my gfx card back from RMA, add some water cooling and lights once I can decide what to get.

Have Phanteks changed the front filter position on the Enthoo cases? The last time i saw these the filter was against the front grill and the side ducts completely missed the filter resulting in the case fans sucking in dust.

Despite being told by a reviewer this had been rectified for my model it has not been.
I intend to knick a pair of swmbo's black tights to filter it myself
