For a clean look get it!
Pros: Great cable management, very easy to build in, support for all sizes of radiators, built in fan controller works perfect, built in rgb and rgb strip that is included is bright and lights up your case very well. Tempered glass is beautiful and led lit logo is a nice feature. Full steel construction is great. The silent edition in the name is exactly correct, blocks most of the sound(considering I have 4 140mm fans, 1 120mm fan, and the 120mm cpu cooler fan).
Cons: Only con is the magnets on the rgb strip that comes with case are horrible, but its nothing some double sided tape cant fix.
Overall Review: I transferred my build from a nzxt s340 and as much as I loved that case I believe this one takes my top spot. Better cable management and more variety for radiator and fan support. For almost $20 cheaper than the s340 elite(including shipping) its worth the buy.
Problems
Pros: 6tb of storage
Cons: Extremely loud and my problem is my downloads on this drive keep dropping to 0MB/s.
Overall Review: My internet is 480mbs, my downloads start immediately and jump to 50-60MB/s, than it will drop to 0MB/s, back up to 10-20MB/s than back to 0. Same computer, nothing changed except switched out the WD Black for a 1tb WD Blue. Downloads never stop and are continuous at 30-60MB/s. I’m out of ideas on why the WD Black 6tb is acting up.
Phanteks should be ashamed!!!
Pros: Easy to build in. Great Air flow. RGB fans are quite.
Cons: Ok so here we go, I have been recommending the Phanteks P400s for years now. Don’t let Phanteks fool you. This is not a p400s frame. The metal is thinned and flimsy inside the case as well as the back of the case. Phanteks needs to address these issues or lower the price to the p350 or p300 prices. Also it feels like they thinned the tempered glass as it feels lighter and they use plastic washers on the thumb screws.
Overall Review: I don’t understand why Phanteks cut corners on this case. The p400s was so sturdy and built with high end materials. The p400a-d seems like a cheap mesh band wagon case, built in a hurry to make a splash in profits.
N/A
Pros: N/A
Cons: Freshly installed windows turned into constant freezing on PC
Overall Review: Before you say could be something else, This was the only different component in an existing build. Own the OCZ TR150 and never had any problems, probably just a manufacturer defect.
Worth it......To an extent!
Pros: Easy to set-up Very comfortable Great back support Perfect height adjustment
Cons: No reclining feature(stated in description), doesn't bother me Wheels are cheap, switched out from another chair No padding on arm rests(forearms is no big deal but if you rest your elbows on them its quite uncomfortable
Overall Review: My first impressions are very positive. It is a very comfortable chair. Was very easy to set-up and is very good quality. I wouldn't purchase this chair at the MSRP of $249.99, but on sale at $149.00 it is well worth it.
Quick machine
Pros: Easy set up Fast processor, great for office use Boots up right out of the box
Cons: Horrible hard drive: Uses a basic hitachi HDD that is extremely loud. This is a know issue with these drives, but in description only says 1tb hdd. Will be switching hard drives asap!!!!!!
Overall Review: Only knocked 1 star off since hard drives are cheap, but that being said its unfortunate that I have to replace the hdd right away. The hdd noise is bearable, but gets very annoying when trying to focus on anything for more than a few minutes
Waiting on response
After a week of use the bracket on chair bent. Contacted the seller. They asked if they sent me a replacement part would that resolve the issue. I replied yes. Heard nothing after that. Replied again saying do you need my info or what bracket it was. Still no response. May have to go through Newegg
