Question 1

Could anyone who has purchased this recently, tell me if it comes with multi LED lights, or do you have to buy them separately?  I have talked to Newegg and the support guy didn't even know. He said eh would find out and email me back. Well, I got the email today saying this case did NOT come with led lights, that I had to buy them. Which is weird, because all the unboxing vids show the lights coming with them, but I do see on here is says you can buy the LED accessories. Please let me know, I would like to order my case asap, need to know what I'm getting and what I need for the pretty purple lights. :)  Thank you.

Accepted Answer

Yeah this case has lights built in around the edges that can change to 8 or so different preset colors.Purple is one of them if I recall correctly but you won't be able change it from the default purple so hopefully you'll like the one they have. The inside of the case is dark though for that you will need  LED lighting strips or a lot of parts that have built in lights. Some of their newer cases have adjustable lighting if I recall. I know they have something going on with ASUS's aura though and you can make them customizable using that but I don't use it and haven't looked into it much. Also requires some of their higher end motherboards the phanteks website should have more info and if this case works with that.

Question 2

Hey guys,
I am wondering if this case can fit a Gigabyte Gtx 970?

Thanks In advance!!

Accepted Answer

There is a ton of room in this case for any GPU on the market. I'm running a Gigabyte GA-X99 Gaming G1 WIFI MB with a GeForce GTX780 and a Corsair liquid cooler. The GPU is a full size card and still has about 2.5 inches of clearance before it gets to the drive cages and I even have the middle drive cage removed since I don't need it providing another 4-5 inches of clearance.

Question 3

Do we have to buy the led strips separately? or is it included already?

Accepted Answer

There are LEDs surrounding the top power button and also LEDs along the sides running from the top to the front. They look quite amazing, but don't do anything to light up the interior as they are on the exterior.

Phanteks sells LED strips for the Enthoo Pro/Luxe seperately in two different lengths that you can then stick onto the interior. I got the longer strip and it works fairly well, although I had to use some electrical tape to stick it to the top after it started falling off after a week or two.

Question 4

Does this case come with front panel connectors for the USB, Audio, Power, Reset or will I have to buy them separately?

Accepted Answer

The power button is on top and is lighted, cannot miss it.

Reset, audio and USBs are on the to 5.25" panel which swivels up revealing the connectors.

This is one very large and very very well made case, there are lots of details I have not found before in a case.

Question 5

Do a Mini-ITX motherboard will be compatible with this case?

Accepted Answer

This case supports all size motherboards include some specialized sever boards. Check the website and reviews on youtube. Why would you want to put a mini-itx motherboard in a full tower case. It's a waste of the case.

Question 6

How big of a graphics card length and width will this support, I'm planning to use a MSI GTX 980 and it is 11" long and 5.51" wide. Later will it accept another 980 as well for a dual SLI config?

Accepted Answer

you'll be fine. trust me. and you can remove the hard drive cages easily if you find you need the extra space. i don't think they make a graphics card that is too big for this case at the moment. and i'd be surprised if they ever did.. ( the case is much bigger than i expected and you can find the exact specs on the phanteks website. .. however with the gtx 780 ti from asus i didn't need to take out any of the hard drive trays at all... still have plenty of room. ) hope this helps. have a great day.

Question 7

Would this be able to fit a MSI GTX 1070? I've done a bit of research but I've found that the case only supports cards up to 410mm long but anything over 270mm will block drive bays and the graphics card is 279mm, would the card be an issue with this case?

Accepted Answer

I have a beastly Galax GTX 980 Ti currently installed in the case, and that card is about 300mm long. It fits with absolutely no issue, but as you say, the front drive cages have to be removed. It was no issue with me, because I installed my SSD behind the mobo and took out the unused front drive bays to improve air flow (and installed a couple top notch intake fans).  If you plan on using those drive bays, you'll have to adhear to the case specs or risk disappointment if your card doesn't fit. Amazing case by the way - couldn't be happier with it. Farewell!

Question 8

The overview gallery photos show a led strip.. So I'm wondering if this version comes with one? I have already purchased the newer model and considering purchasing this one for my son.

Accepted Answer

The exterior has a built in "strip" on the left side. It's controlled on the front by a small button (7 colors I think).

If you buy the phanteks kit you can add an inner strip as well that will be controlled along with the exterior.

Question 9

I'm a little embarrassed to ask, but I'm somewhat new to building, but is the bracket on the back under the exhaust fan for a reservoir?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can fit a tube reservoir under 8 inches to it, It's a tight squeeze but the The EK-RES X3 reservoir from EK might do the trick.

Technical data:
- Installation height: 150mm 
- Diamter: 60mm 
- Capacity: ~240ml 
- Weight (netto): 265g

Enclosed within delivery: 
EK-Multioption RES X3
Pair of EK reservoir holders with mounting screws
2 × G1/4 extenders
4 × G1/4 Plugs 
1 × 6mm Allen key for plugs 
1 × 2,5mm allen key for reservoir holders
1 × polyether anti-cyclon foam

Get some tiny rubber grommets for vibration for fans, ect. I used electrical tape on the top grid edges, and I get no vibration. This was my first build from scratch, when you purchase your graphics card, if you want to water cool it now or in the future, make sure they make a full water jackets for it.

Question 10

does this case come with pwm fan hub or does that have to be bought separately?

Accepted Answer

It does have a pwm fan hub in the back but there is no analog control on it.  1 input and 6 or so outputs.  So if your cpu fan is the input all fans connected will run at the cpu fan speed.
