Case with 3 5.25" slots? I've found it: PHANTEKS ENTHOO PRO! Yeah, I'm an old guy and I've got 2 CDROMs and a whole CD library to archive. Plenty of space and excellent internal organisation, much better than my old CORSAIR Carbide 500R. And it's very easy to install an AIO. I appreciated being able to install 4 2.5" SSDs in the 4 corners in addition to the 2 M2 SSDs on the CM. I know it sounds rich. And it allows you to create a RAID array, nah! Install 2 different OSes and ventilate everything efficiently.
I'm taking off one star for the stinginess of PHANTEKS, who only supply one 2.5" SSD support, Grrrr! Which forced me to look for the other 3 on other sites, because PHANTEKS NO LONGER SELLS OR MADE THEM, re-Grrrrrrr. And LDLC is careful not to mention this, let it be known! Grrr Grrr. Well, here's a box that's not going to be obsolete any time soon, and that's just as well, because cheap is expensive, especially towards the end.
Second case of this type (the first bought in 2016 was the one with the plexiglass window. This one is identical, except for the lack of side window and power supply cover, the box of screws and 2 fans supplied (black rear and white front 20cm, the old one had 2 white ones). I went back to this model because I'm completely satisfied with it, as I use high-capacity 3.5" HDDs for my business. The bays can also be used for a whole host of upgradable or practical accessories. In short, it's going to join its cousin, they're complete, solid and modular, even if it's not in the air of time for gamers (all ssd etc...), although they are compatible with the most varied accessories (huge CG and cooling slots available). Delivery was fast
This isn't the 1st time I've ordered this system, my old PC runs on it and the PCs around me (which I've assembled) also run on it. It's spacious and a lot of elements can be removed, particularly the racks for the old HDDs, which frees up even more space, very useful these days with graphics cards that are always bigger and no longer fit in the towers ... ^^"
Strange thing (as I always use the same links shop) the der tower that I have goes from 4 to 2 USB ports on the front and above all I had 2 fans integrated into it, the other models that I had at hand did not have the venti and 4 ports on the front.
It's a bit expensive, you might think, but it's beautiful and ideal for a gaming PC.
1-When you play with this case because of its sound dampening bracing, all you hear is a wind breeze while you're playing a greedy game that could generate a lot of noise.
2-A super ergonomic interior for connections with dedicated and very easy spaces.
3-Even if I change the configuration of my PC one day I will keep this magic carcass!
I don't understand how at this price there is a part missing, it's not the size of a screw no it's the power supply protection a steel sheet that makes a good volume ... request to the LDLC customer service yesterday noon which indicates me answer in 6h*( * working day).
I'm not going to waste my time on the phone and the information is gone so for the moment I can't congratulate the LDLC after sales service.
The product was picked up in shop with a very good reception, the star is for them...
I was looking for a tower that could take up to 6 hard drives. No doubt the case does the job. It's a pleasure to have space for cables, CM and graphics card. I transferred everything from my old Antec case to this one with ease. The whole thing is as quiet as my old Antec. I have two small remarks: It's a bit of a pain to put the side panels back on and even though it's pretty easy to put the hard drives in the racks, I managed to jam a drive into a rack without being too careful (a bit of a pain to get it out), you have to be careful to slide it straight into the slot, That's it, I'm happy with my purchase.
... of this purchase, a great tower, very practical, well thought out, well finished except for a small deburring of the brand name inside (not visible), full of small chips...
I appreciate the overall finish of this tower and this particular detail makes me smile: there is what is needed where it is needed, the only "laxity" is found in the logo of the brand. It's almost a nod to the concept of "premium" where the tower is, for the rest.
Not necessarily suitable for my "old" 2013 motherboard with the twin front USB sockets (my 8 x3 pins are separate, I'll have to find an adapter), but a great pleasure to mount and swap the various drives. Lots of screws included, plenty of room to work inside and a perfect tower for cooling and even heating the feet :D
A little problem with the delivery though: I was missing an SSD bracket (only 1 instead of 2), quickly delivered by Phanteks via LDLC after sales service.
If your criteria are the same as mine, I advise!
Very large tower, plenty of room for everything + watercooling.
2 fans are integrated in the product, they are all connected to a PWM HUB card, so if you want to adjust their performance separately you will have to connect them to the motherboard. But this is not a problem.
There are plenty of hard drive slots (HDD and SSD), the storage racks are innovative, never seen that before, and it's very easy to use.
The dust filters are efficient and the bottom ones are easy to remove for cleaning.
Very good product, I recommend.
There's plenty of room.
A bit weird the way the cables are arranged but it's efficient.
Standard dust filters underneath, on top, in front (looks like nothing but it's very practical). They seem a bit of a pain to take out, to be seen in use.
The way the disk racks are arranged and accessed (through the left panel) is surprising but after all why not.
The usb/jack outputs are hidden behind a panel to avoid collecting dust if you think of closing it.
No translucent panel, but it's a PC that you set up, not a sound and light system for a campsite on the French Riviera.
In short, a good case to host one or more 1080/vega, for smaller cards it has little interest.
Not much to complain about. Spacious, seems to be well ventilated, you can easily add 3 fans in addition to the 2 already present. However, the access to the HDD holders is on the right panel and the access to the other components on the left panel. The dust filters are also a problem, only the bottom one is easily removable, for the other ones, good luck.
Now we just have to wait for the summer and its strong heat (something that had burned one of the fan motors of my old tower ...)
I was looking for a case that could accommodate a GTX 1080 Ti without having to take out a rack of hard drives, that's fine. Then I wanted a case that breathes well and there again no problem. Well, I didn't take any risks with the processor, an i7 7820X with a watercooling in 240, but both the power supply and the video card are stopped very often. In short, a lot of space. My only regret is the "useless" rheobus with the current motherboards, which already offer a good number of connectors for the fans (no less than 10 connectors for the ASUS TUF X299 Mark 1 used). The case is very sober and the washable filters are a real plus. I may buy another one soon...
It's a really big case, very well designed the opening of the side panels (and especially their closing) is really made easier by not having to suffer from slides,
The removal of the hard drive bays is easy (really a lot of slots and unless you want to make a server you will remove them) very efficient ventilation I added three fans on the top in aspiration, the case has a control card for the fans very appreciable when you have many. It's the third one I've ordered for gamer PCs in my family and we're all happy with it. It is also easy to clean.
Great finish. Convenient cable management. Accessible, screwless hard drive column. Well thought-out fan expansion. Different motherboard formats allowed. Ventilation by means of washable and well-located filters.
completely satisfied with my purchase, quick installation of
of the components, good quality of the materials used.
used.
Nothing negative to say about it!
Despite everything I still have a soft spot for my camera
Zalman GS1000 PLUS.....
case is very well made, sober and very complete
the brushed aluminium effect finish of the plastic is very well done
However my case was delivered without the cover that hides the power supply, not too bad but good...
OH MY GOD!
This tower is perfect, robust, modular, large and easy to assemble!
The locations, the cable channels, their length,... everything is well calculated and planned.
Moreover, it remains sober and elegant.
Perfect I tell you :-)
The case is very well made, sober and very complete with lots of little additions (screw panel, plastic or velcro clamps, SSD support).
I just made a small mistake with the dimensions... it's huge and in my case, it wasn't justified. I feel like I bought an air conditioner for my living room. And as a result, all the cables from my old PC are not recoverable because they are too short to pass through this tower (e.g. SD card reader).
It is indeed a real tower... a HLM in which several families could live ;)
First of all, it is beautiful, sober and serious. Inside, everything is well thought out: cable trays, cable passages are numerous; 2 ssd slots, but only one support and the controller of several fans included, at this price, it's simply excellent!
