Pros: Very nice looking case, Less wires to route

Cons: The only cons was that the front and top red doesnt match the side panels and that I couldnt mount a corsair h100i in the top (Screw holes do not line up).

Overall Review: Other than the 2 cons, Its a gorgeous case with alot of potential. I didnt buy the case from Newegg, Preordered from NZXT.

We apologize for the inconvenience. If you had any other questions, please let us know about those issues as well! We would be happy to assist.

Sincerely,
NZXT. Staff

Pros: This is definitely a good looking case, with all the basic necessities!
More than enough space,(Duh, Full Tower!) and easy to run cables and wires onto the other side of the panel for that clean look!

Cons: Just like the other review, the color doesn't match up all the way, but it isn't that bad.

I feel like the front panel covering your DVD drives and such, is a little TOO cheaply made. When closing the panel it feels like it won't stay closed unless you slammed the bi***!

Overall Review: Overall, a good case. Looks even better in person!
Most definitely stands out than your basic cases

Pros: Lots of cable room. Looks clean. Holds a lot and room for good hardware. SSD mount is awesome!

Cons: Pointless mess fan slot. Plastic and steel are different reds but I knew that buying the case.

Overall Review: 3930k
Asus Sabertooth
EVGA GTX Titan SC Sig
H100i Pull/Push
AX850

Pros: Most of the reviews online from newegg and other places are just about spot on for this case.
Plenty of room
Easy to work in
Provided plenty of screws and accessories.
Cable management is good if you have a modular power supply if not then it takes some work. I ended up getting most of it done correctly but with the excess cables had to just run them over the hard drive cage and tuck them in the back. Plan on getting a modular at a later time just not a prioty at this point.
Very good airflow
Removable hard drive cages

Cons: Fingerprint magnet well more of a smug magnet
Can easily tell when a little dust gets on the case
The white power indicator on the left side is a nice feature but my tower sits on top of my desk right across from the couch and when the HDD indicator blinks you know it have thought about putting tape over it cause its so bright a different color may resolve this but the white is just to bright. You can also see where the light shines through the red plastic bezel.
The front and top bezel are a pain to remove.
To clean the front dust filter you have to remove the front bezel to do so. If you have a DVD drive or anything else in the 5.25 drive bays they have to be removed. This is because the front bezel has stop brackets for the drives on them. You can remove them by cutting them off or sanding them down. Plan on doing this later. I installed my dvd drive first and there is a quarter inch gap between the case and bezel so its not a flush mount, but the front door hides this. Will fix during the first cleaning of the fans and filters.
The painted red color is beautiful but the plastic pieces do not match it you can clearly tell a color difference.
There is small and I mean very small gaps between the plastic and metal. I probably would not have noticed it if it was not for the led lights shining through them.
The USB ports look like they have been well used the metal clips are bent out.
The lights for the back of the case are a nice feature however with the side window on the case you can see these lights perfectly from the inside and if you was planning on using them full time they are more of an eye sore.

Overall Review: Might want to get a P4 extender my lead was just barley long enough to reach it with a little pulling going to order one very soon, on the 820 model they provide you with one.
Kinda wish I would have got the 630 in the gunmetal gray color instead but still overall still a good case and moderately pleased with it. Just don’t fell like taking everything out and waiting on a new case to arrive is the reason I’m keeping it.

Pros: It's huge Very Spacious . and it comes with ties so u can manage cables . Have alot of cable hooks . This is the first Gaming pc I'm going to build and I have to say I'm loving it already .

Cons: The BitFenix Spectre Pro did not fit the case it was too big .

Overall Review: To Be updated soon

Pros: USB 3.0, BIG lol..Great airflow,great cable management,nice airfilters, did I mention BIG?

Cons: front and top plastic kinda cheezy. Not too bad, but obvious color,texture difference than sides. scratches easy.

Overall Review: It is a well made case. liquid cooling was a breeze, plenty of mounting options. All in all, very happy with purchase.

Pros: DUST FILTERS on the front and bottom intakes!
Plenty of mounting options for case fans and radiators.
Modular hard drive cages.
Awesome 200mm fan in the front that looks cool.
Awesome fan controller that supports up to 10 fans which is really cool.
Rear IO lights.
Tool-less design.
Metal interior structure with a removable plastic top and front panel.
SSD mount behind the mother board.
Solid case design.

Cons: I'm going to be precise. The metal core of the case is a darker red than the plastic panel covers that came with it.
I can deal with that I guess.

Overall Review: I got the Phantom 530 in red, the plastic may be a lighter tone. I love it any ways.
My friends are jelly.

Pros: fan controller is nice and lots of cable room, hard drive cages slide out on the same side you plug cables in, radiator support

Cons: color matching (on the red version at least) isn't even close, and the side panels just fall off without screws

Overall Review: the cons wouldn't be a big deal, but for the price I expected better

Pros: Very spaceous, one of the few solid red cases available on the market, many fan mounting options, solid construction

Cons: Though the case supports Kraken AIO coolers, I experienced limitations for the mounting options with the Corsair H100i GTX. I had intended to have the radiator installed beneath the top lid and have the fans installed beneath it inside the case for a Push configuration. Unfortunately, the radiator's hose placement and the case's hole alignment prevents the radiator's bottom holes for the fan screws from aligning properly such that any more than 2 screws would be able to be fastened. As such, the only options were to install a Pull configuration sandwiched beneath the lid and case or to install a Push configuration entirely inside the case. Since I'm using an Asus Sabertooth Z97 Mark S board with large TUF system, the Push configuration was not an option due to insufficient clearance for the fans (this is my fault in motherboard choice, not the case's fault). Because of this, I was forced to use a pull installation with my radiator installed inside the case and the case fans installed above it.

Some of the LED / power headers do not fit snugly around the motherboard pins and will just fall out. I've come to expect loose single pin headers from prior builds, but these don't stay at all. These had to be taped into place!

Only 2 fans included. For the price, there should really be 3-4 as is typically found with other cases.

Also, my window side panel warps when it is removed, however this is a minor detail

Overall Review: If you like the design of this case and want a spacious design with plenty of cable management and cooling options, you really can't go wrong with this one. Just be careful if you plan on mounting a large radiator on top of your

Pros: Great case. Fits all my components well and gives great options of mounting all your hardware.

Cons: Only thing I can think of is that its a tad smaller than youd think. Just a little little bit. I still had room for my components including my Sli 980's but it had just little less space than my previous case (a raidmax vampire).

Pros: Deep Red (pictures are deceiving) This case has lots of room for cooling, MB, Video cards etc. the space behind the motherboard mount is very nice for cable management. Large 200mm intake fan in the front.

Cons: Not enough pre installed fans for the price. Should have added LED fans instead of plain. Liquid cooling had to be installed with fans on top as there wasn't enough room for my H110 radiator to be installed in a push pull configuration.-1egg

Overall Review: Had to name it Maximillion due to the intense red paint and the addition of a 200mm red led fan. (the blackhole).

Pros: Plenty of room for water cooling options , building and generally anything else.Great construction nice and solid build with good custom ability with the hard drive bays. I also purchased two 200mm Cooler Master fans to go with this case for exhausting air through the top. A word of warning the top can be difficult to remove and when instslling the 200mm fans had to use the screws that came with the case since the screws that came with the fans were to large for the holes. The rubber grommets for cable management are very solid and do not easily fall out of place.

Cons: none so far

Overall Review: Great case for the money if you are looking for a full size case.

Pros: Good Price, decent product and plenty of features.

Cons: Parts are not the best. Usb 3.0 port breaks easily. Customer service is not so great. Took a week and multiple tickets submitted in different ways to get a response. Said replacement parts were on the way in a couple of days. Almost a month went by and nothing until I asked and was told they were out. They never gave an update or anything. So I have been without a working case for 2 months now just to get in a couple of cables that I will replace myself.

Overall Review: Okay price for what you get but, usb 3.0 port breaks easily handle with care and bad customer service. You will most likely have to repair this case if you buy it so keep that in mind.

Pros: Comes in Red, big, interesting design, well organized with screws, cover over disk drives, on-off button for mini flashlights inside and in back (easier to plug things in the dark!), feels cool

Cons: USB plug was too big to fit in the connectors to the motherboard. Some spots are easy to handprint, Otherwise, no issues so far

Overall Review: It is beautiful. I plan on using it and never replacing it for the rest of my years of pc gaming.

Pros: great case lots of room and great back panel for tucking away wires and what have you. also has a "hub" for fans an other accessories.
window into the case makes for a beautiful view if you light up your case its well done . solid case for its price.

Cons: not so happy with the fan control wiring harness. also case is hard to get to snap back together ... ive lost my love loss for its stiffness in fitting the top and front in particular front first then top ... .i borderline punch the parts back into place as they are very hard to snap back in.

Pros: I bought this case because it had everything I was looking for in a case

Cons: I'm not sure how their quality control operates but like several other people had mentioned, The Red of the plastic does not match the paint they used on the rest of the case.

plastic top and front is a dark red, case is a little bit brighter red in color

Also my Side panel is warped. While in the case all is fine and it looks nice and flat however when you take off the side the panel naturally wants to tweak slightly. I wonder if it has to do with when they punch out the hole for the window

Overall Review: the color thing was only a minor inconvenience as I plan to do a custom paint job on this case and only needed the red for a base color

Pros: very roomy case and great cable management capabilitys

Cons: none

Overall Review: awesome case

Pros: The Most Beautiful Case Ever.
Love the window and all the fancy lights and fan controller.

I love how the free shipping was suppose to have it ship between 3-7 business days but came in the next day with my PSU.

Cons: -Finger Print and Dust Magnet. Always catching dust and fingerprints have to clean all the time.

Needs a better manual. Directions are drawn and not written. Get confused on what screws to use. Took a long time to install an hard drive.

It came with some scratches nothing that you can see for a foot away but you can tell if you look closely.

Overall Review: Bigger than I expected. Cant fit on my desk.

Still haven built inside of her.

Pros: This case is great! It has a lot of room for your graphics card, great airflow, a nice place to keep the cords out of the way, and a great look overall.

Cons: The both the Led on the back didn't last longer then 4 months. One is completely dead as the other one is almost gone.

Overall Review: This as a great case but I wish those leds would have lasted a lot longer.

Pros: When I purchased this case, I didn't realize how big it would be. I was surprised, but happy.
This case has great airflow and lots of space
The I/O lighting is really helpful for the rear ports, especially since they're in a darker area.
Installing parts is easy and they feel very secure.
I liked the door covering the 5.25" bays. It makes the case look sleeker and cooler.

Cons: None

Overall Review: My fan controller doesn't seem to work, but I am pretty sure I didn't wire it correctly. This is the first computer I have built after all.

Pros: This case has a lot of room and great cable management. There are plenty of expansion bays for hard drives and their side to side orientation leaves more space for air flow and keeps the cables hidden out of sight. Easily the cleanest build I've ever had. I also managed to get a Corsair H100i inside with very little trouble(getting the CPU power plugged in was tricky). The integrated fan controller is awesome and there are even LED lights on the back near all the I/O ports you can turn on with a button press that makes plugging things in easier. There are also dust filters on the bottom that are super easy to clean.

Cons: Heavy, though it's a large case so it should be expected. The color of the plastic top and front panel is several shades darker than the metal sides and back. It's not noticeable from afar but it's very obvious up close.

Overall Review: While the color difference was a bit disappointing when I unpacked the case, the ease of install and sheer amount of room and convenience features definitely made up for it. It's a sharp looking case and the clean build gets a lot of compliments. I would definitely recommend it.

Pros: Great airflow design, lots of slots, has a fan controller, has a prebuilt in 200mm fan and 140 mm fan

Cons: None so far

Pros: Great case, very modular, its bigger on the inside! Love all the filters that let air go but help cut down on dust and other debris. Case was easy to work on and the connectors actually connect to everything on the motherboard.

Cons: its heavy

Pros: This is a great case I really enjoy and recomend it if you want to know more that is why newegg post the infograph above.

Cons: None so far its a full tower and exactly what I expected the only thing is I wish the power button pushed in all the way like my coolermaster haf 932 case instead of a quickswitch.

Overall Review: This is what blew my mind is that I ordered this thing for my build and I got it in under 30 hours without paying anything extra for shipping. A+++ newegg I will continue to return!

Pros: Really nice case. Easy to work with, lots of room and even more room with the removable HDD cages. SSD dock behind motherboard is pretty convenient. Fan hub is awesome. Side window panel gives a great view to the hardware inside.

Cons: The red on the plastic and on the metal are different colors. The front bezel is hard to take off which is required to clean the fan or install a new one. Location of the Power button sucks... I've pressed it a couple times on accident (I leave it on top of my desk) and friends have pressed on it trying to lay their hands on the case to look around the back of it. Should have been placed behind the door near the reset button and drive bays.

Overall Review: Removing the bezels is a bit of a pain and it seems prone to breaking the clips but overall great case and I don't think i made a mistake getting it.

Pros: - Epic Cable management.
- 2 LED lights built in to illuminate the rear input out put a button on top activates them
- Good fan positioning
- Nice front door
- AMAZING CURVES (reminiscent of an Audi R8)
- Room for air cooling

Cons: The top pannel is tedious to remove b/c of a cheap anchor system, but if you only take it off every now and then it's nothing to detract from this case.

Overall Review: Looks amazing with a strike x LCD fan controller and two 12" red cold cathodes!

Newegg customer service is absolutely wonderful!

Pros: Easy to install most components (see cons).

Cons: The top is plastic and very difficult to remove (required to install a cooler). The switch top in the top did not operate smoothly; I had to shave the plastic switch top with a cutting tool. Also the actual switch underneath popped out and a piece broke off. I am still waiting for a replacement top and switch [it has been 7 weeks since NZXT said they would send me the replacement parts]. If you install a Corsair H110 cooler you can only use the lower 5-1/4 inch bay since the cooling tubes will infringe on the upper two drive bays space. The case needs to be about one inch longer.

Overall Review: The specs read great but too many problems with the plastic construction for the top as well as the 5-1/4 drive bay issue.. Get the 630 - a few bucks more and much better case or the AZZA Genesis - my favorite case except it is about 3/4 inch too tall to fit under my work table - the Genesis sometimes is on sale for about the price of the 530 [I paid less with a rebate].

Pros: Got this for a new build and I love it. Last one was a giant Thermaltake X. This has a much smoother look, just as spacious, and much quieter.
- I like the fan control. And the fans are quiet.
- All the pieces/screws are in clearly marked bags.
- The fan power control system is nice and easy to add additional fans.
- I like that there is a specific spot for a SSD.
- It is lighter than similar sized cases I've used.
- There is a good amount of space for cable management, even after adding a Noctua NH-D14. A Roswell Capstone 750 does fits nicely.
- I love the look.

Cons: Just pullimg off the plastic on the front and top to access those areas feels rather weird. It feels like I'm going to break something, but I know I'm not.

Pros: This is a great case for what it is.
theres plenty of room for you to install anything you would like even giant silverstone cpu coolers!
has multiple drive bays which is nice,
the 2 LED's on the back are a nice touch 2 fans included can put up to 9 in it i think if you want to go fan crazy

Cons: Case came with one broken fan (pre installed) i dont believe this was neweggs fault or the shippers, came from manufacturer like that - 1 egg

other being for what this case cost i thought for sure they could get the red plastic to match the red metal but i guess thats to much to ask I am a NZXT fan but this case has made me think about future case purchases from them as i stated the top and front of my case do not match the rest of the case - 1 egg

Overall Review: although i gave it 3 eggs this case will definitely do more than what im asking of it. I love NZXT and their products just wish the colors matched more than anything

Pros: A lot of space, 30 watt controler fan, you can put fans everywhere, ssd ready, All cable are already passed in the case for factory fans and leds etc
You have a back led

Cons: The front of the case is plastic so it feel a little cheap at first but it's not something you stick to otherwise nothing else to say

Overall Review: Also in the back there is a white led so you can see in the dark where to plug cables and the price is good for a full tower

Pros: Everything perfect all around fan hub is a plus in the back

Cons: It's not self aware lol

Overall Review: This is my second build and first for this type of build giving the fact I'm old schooled hahaha I remember when agp was the graphics slots and radeon 9800 pros were top of the line but man its time for a needed upgrade

Pros: -A joy to build in
-HUGE
-removable hdd cages
-Looks glorious
-Great cooling option, support for 360mm rad
-I love it

Cons: Take everything you think you know about red and make it redder. That is this case.

Pros: Lots of tie downs for cable management, built in fan controller, light for MB I/O, ample room for components such as the Kraken X60 CPU water cooler, air filter screens, and a great looking case.

Cons: I found the power/HDD lights to be bright enough to bleed through the side of the panel. Plastic there just isn't thick enough to block the light and direct it out the front as designed. I used some gaff tape on the inside of the panel to remedy this. This is the only reason I knocked an egg off. For the price I think this should have been addressed before production.

Overall Review: A great case and I will recommend to others.

Pros: good air flow, looks pretty nice, the stock fans work good, plenty of space for wires and parts nice hard drive bays.

Cons: ok so the power button does not work. i've tried contacting NZXT but has gotten nothing after 2 weeks. so basicly every time i want to start it i have to open the case push the bios button on the motherboard and boot from there. like really all im asking is just give me the cheap prob like 3$ power switch and this will have 5/5. o and also the top is hard to get off (had to use a wrench).

Pros: I saw a review on LinusTechTips on youtube I was very Impressed. It looked like It can fit anything. The back fan is 140mm but You can adjust It, It still has the back LED to make the IO port visible. They added a nice rear window to show your flashy LED lights,Water Cooling. It had nice lock in release bays for your SSD'S/HDD'S. Pre-Ordered and can't wait.

Cons: Release It already NZXT

Pros: Cool looking case but outside of that all of the bells and whistles didn't even work.

Cons: I am writing this review simply because NZXT has some of the worst customer support I have ever dealt with. My case shipped with a defective I/O light and fan speed controller. (its all basically one chip that handles the power for the fan speed and I/O light on the rear of the computer. I opened a ticket on the NZXT support site and my issue has yet to be resolved. I was told by one of the reps that they will ship me the part but that was a month ago and I haven't heard form them since. If you are looking to be backed by this products customer support in case something on your case does not work i suggest you look elsewhere. Cool master and Corsair have great cases. NZXT really needs to get better customer support. It amazes me that you are not even able to speak to a live representative considering how big their company is. No number to contact, nothing. Live chat is offline every time that i visit their website.

Overall Review: very dissatisfied with this purchase.

Pros: Has plenty of room for routing wires, drives and hdd/ssd.

Cons: Had trouble removing the top of the case for top fan installation. Probably just me but the plastic pins holding
it in place had dents in it which made them get stuck.
Spent an hour trying to figure out what was wrong but couldn't.
So I just forced it off. Nothing broke though, lucky :)

Overall Review: Overall great case, plenty of room/ airflow. Just a little trouble but worked around it.
