Phanteks (PH-ES614PTG_BK) Enthoo Pro ATX Chassis, Tempered Glass, Intergrated RGB Lighting, Black

Excellent case. Bought it in 2021 and it still looks new despite the fact I live in a tropical environment with lots of salt in the air. It is a very spacious case with room to add multiple HDDs, Big GPU, and lots of led lights. It was easy to remove components to customize for my specific needs. I currently have 6 HDDs, and an SSD dive. Main OS in on a NVMe drive. Big GPU and liquid cooling. The tempered glass is very thick and strong, I accidentally dropped it on my concrete floor and not even a scratch. Overall the case is built solid and it’s a good value for money.

Putting everything together with this case was very straight forward. It has lots of space and convenience for cable management, as well as plenty of slots for HDD’s and SSD’s. I didn't have trouble figuring out where things go even without the manual. It’s hard to find nice modern looking tempered glass cases like this that ACTUALLY have optical drive bays nowadays. Especially having more than one slot. Overall it’s a great value for the price if you find them in stock. Would be perfect for a media server type of build, but I personally love it for my main gaming rig/workstation. Lots of room for additions and great airflow. The USB-C port on the front panel is nice as well if your motherboard has a connection for it. The included fans are a bit cheap but I wouldn’t say they’re terrible or too noisy. Overall I think it’s a great case for being under $150 in my case.

I was looking for a case for a photo editing / gaming build. Once I came across the Phanteks Enthoo Pro Tempered Glass PH-ES614PTG_BK at Micro Center in Houston, my search was over. Well, kind of. The guys pulled the box and I went to check out and the price was incorrect. Turns out they gave me the wrong case and didn't have the one I wanted in stock. So I left disappointed. But, Amazon Prime came to the rescue. They had the case in stock and I had it on my doorstep in two days. I'm an old school, well, we can just say older guy. I was really looking for a case with multiple drive bays. I know these days that most software can be downloaded and data can be transferred via USB drives, etc. But, I still need to or want to burn and watch CD-ROMs, DVDs and BluRay discs. I also like to load CF and SD cards directly into the PC. This case has three 5.25" drive bays. That certainly met my needs. I was a bit surprised that it was difficult to find more information about this case online. Most of the YouTube videos are for other models that have a partial glass side panel. This case has a hinged tempered glass side panel that covers the entire side and is easily removed with two thumb screws. The power button is on the top. On the front panel, at the top, there is a hinged, covered, top section that has 2 USB 3.0, 2 USB 2.0, microphone and headphone jacks, a reset switch and an LED switch to control the colors of the power button. You can get more details about the case at the Phanteks website. My build is a work in progress. I call her Gator Growler (I'm a University of Florida alum). My RGB color palate is of course, Orange and Blue. And in the photos you'll see my Albert the Gator statue. My current build has an ASUS ROG Maximus X Hero motherboard with an Intel Core i5 8600K CPU. The CPU chills with a CoolerMaster Hyper 212 LED fan. My primary drive is a 500GB Samsung NAND SSD 970 EVO NVMe.2 and my data drive is a 1TB Samsung NVME SSD 960 EVO M.2. I also have a few other drives installed that were laying around from older PCs. I have 32GB of DDR4-3200 RAM from G.SKILL (8132MBx4). The GPU is an XFX Radeon RX 550 with 4GB GDDR5 memory. I'm using a PowerSpec 650W (80 Plus Bronze) PSU. I have a Corsair K70 Lux RGB keyboard (MX Cherry Brown) and a Corsair M65 Pro RGB gaming mouse. I'm running Windows 10 Home 64 bit. This case has great cable management with several fasteners. The other side panel is metal and is secured by a couple of screws. There is a power supply shroud that makes a nice platform for my Albert Gator statue to sit on. There are two fans and space for plenty more. There is a fan controller. There is lots of room for expansion and flexibility. My next updates probably focus on RGB light strips, RGB fans and replacing the CPU cooler with an All-in-one (AIO) solution. I don't think you can go wrong with this case. I love it. Definitely 5 stars in my book!

My requirements for a new case severely limited the number of choices available, the most important requirements being that the case is capable of E-ATX motherboards, it will easily fit a Corsair H115i (preferably top-mounted), multiple internal hard drive bays, and that it has external 5.25" drive bays for my Blu-ray burner. Any of these requirements individually would limit my choices, but all requirements together made it difficult to even find any choices. This Phanteks case made the (very) short list. Before ordering, I emailed Phanteks to verify the Corsair radiator would fit on the top without removing a drive bay or anything, and they got back to me within 12 hours (kudos to their support department). I've been assembling new systems for 24 years, and have experienced some horrible cases and some impressive cases. My last two personal systems have gone inside an Antec DF-85, which was quite versatile but didn't support E-ATX. My main HTPC is in a Silverstone LC17, and the other HTPC is in a Cooler Master. I had not heard of Phanteks before, and because of the price, I was expecting a mediocre (or even disappointing) experience. Unboxing for the first time, I realized this Phanteks seemed just as heavy as my Antec. Unlike my Antec, this Phanteks is not flashy and/or gaudy looking, it has a very subdued yet attractive appearance: function with style. Opened the tempered glass sidepanel and pulled out the parts box, and found that the screws are all separated inside a plastic compartment organizer case...just, wow. Every other case I've unboxed came with mixed screws in a ziplock baggie, this was a very nice touch. I assumed there had to be a lot of thin metal at this price point, but the only thing that had any give, or could possibly be easily bent, was the backplate...but even that wasn't any thinner than any other backplate I've used. I've included pictures to show that my radiator easily fit top-mounted with room to spare, I was still able to utilize the cable management holes at the top of the motherboard, and my E-ATX mobo also did not infringe too far on the cable holes to the side, either. Behind the other side panel is a somewhat elaborate cable system already in place for fans/fanhub and some power, etc. The velcro cable ties made it easy to add/re-route cables. Mounting rails for the hard drives are somewhat-thin plastic, but well designed for fast install. One good test to determine the quality of a computer case is the number of cuts to the hands during assembly: it was 0. Edges are all either rounded or not sharp. I normally don't think of power buttons when evaluating a case. The Phanteks power button is on the top instead of on the front (next to everything else), so there's no bending over or looking for it when first sitting down...or accidentally pushing the reset button. And it's about three times the size of most power buttons. In addition it's recessed, so I can plug my phone or tablet into the front USB port and sit my device on the top without triggering the button. HD activity LED is also on top. I don't like having all the buttons plus USB ports on the top like it is with other cases, but having just the power button is welcome. It's not all sunshine and rose petals...there is always something. In this situation, it's the external drive bay depth: my optical drive and card reader both are slightly recessed when installed, they're not flush with the front plate. It's not much, not too noticeable. I could probably just remove the included plastic drive bay locks and use screws to fine-adjust the depth. There are other notable touches, such as the PSU shroud, removable drive bays, magnetic dust filter on the top and slide filters on the bottom, included fans, etc. This case was so nice to work with, highly versatile, is very attractive, well designed, and quality metal. So I'm still shell-shocked about the price...

Excelente construcción, solida y precisa. Gran calidad material y de diseño. Eché mano de esta caja debido a su gran espacio y versatilidad (que no es poca, puedes montar lo que te de la gana de verdad). Créase o no a estas alturas del siglo 21 usé las 3 bahías de 5,25 y una de las dos jaulas removibles de discos duros. La apariencia es genial, ya que el plástico del panel frontal es clavado a un aluminio cepillado anodizado. El cristal templado es tintado muy guapo la verdad! (ojo que pesa y la puerta se abre completa (180 grados, hay que cuidar eso). El único contra que veo son las pequeñas patitas de las tapas de las bahías de 5,25 que si las quitas y pones parecería que van a durar poco. Solo eso. No tengo queja alguna y sin duda el mejor case que he tenido.

Il case è gigante, posso farci stare dentro mia nonna e ci sarebbe spazio anche per il gatto... Oltre al bell'aspetto anche la fattura è solida e di buona qualità. Praticamente tutto modulare grazie alle viti con cui è assemblato, puoi svitare via le varie parti finché non rimane solo il frame inferiore e le quattro aste agli angoli, anche la gabbia con gli alloggiamenti dei dischi fissi è rimovibile (a loro volta rimuovibili singolarmente). All'interno vi è una scatolina di cartone rigido con dentro tutta la ferramenta necessaria, niente bustine volanti, e due ventole non RGB di ottima fattura phanateks. Praticamente qualsiasi progetto custom loop o doppia cpu che ti possa venire in mente è fattibile! Altra nota bonus, gentilissimo e professionale il supporto phanateks che, dato il ritardo di una settimana della consegna SDA (non c'è da stupirsi) mi ha assistito e addirittura fatto uno sconto per il disguido! Do 5 stelle perché non posso darne di più.

The best if not one of the best towers I have ever worked with. I got this tower for a friend and wish that I had gotten it for myself when I was in the market for a computer tower so many years ago. The design is very simple and elegant and straight forwards, very easy to maintain (like if you needed to do any maintenance it's very easy to assemble and disassemble). Their are plenty of drive bays to work with (so if your one of those weird people that like to add 5 or 10 hard drives to your computer so your computer can have ... i dunno ... 40 terrabytes of space you could very well easily do that). Their are also various SSD ... socket .... place holder ... things on various corners of the case. And the thing has multiple USB 3 ports on the front with a retractable cover (retractable isn't the right word ... oh whatever). Theirs space for fan intakes on the front and fan exhausts on the top side for optimized air flow efficiency and a separate section for the powersupply on the bottom.

RAD ..

This is a well built and set out case. It's also huge, there's enough space to hold a dance in it, (if we were allowed to by the Gov). :):). Best case I've had so far. I installed an ATX board and there's a good amount of space around the side and bottom to plug in leads without struggling. There's three 5.25" ODD slots to the front, six 3.5" HDD carriers which can alternatively accommodate 2.5" (HDD or SSD) drives, , and four dedicated 2.5" drive positions, 2 carriers are supplied, extra's are available. Fill that lot up if you can! Also lots of room to run cables behind the motherboard plate, rubber gaskets in most apertures. The right-hand side panel is all steel, the left-hand panel is tempered glass which best of all is hinged so no worries about dropping it. The PCIe slot covers on the back are not the cheap knockout type, they are removable so if need be they can be refitted and you are not left with a gaping hole. More places to put fans and/or water-cooling than you can shake a stick at, it can even take 20cm/8" fans in places. You can also download the manuals for most Phanteks cases from their web site which is useful to give you a heads up before purchase. All in all a very capable case, extremely pleased with my purchase. Some may think its a tad expensive, but you get what you pay for and this is worth every penny.
