Today NZXT announced its Phantom 530 case:

http://www.nzxt.com/product/detail/134-phantom-530.html

Its a nice looking case.

I just think however that it lacks something that makes it look amazing. I think its that raised curved top at the back.

NZXT calls it a full tower but I don't know why its just barely bigger than my Coolermaster mid tower CM690.

I still prefer the Phantom 630 to be honest even though this has the nice big window, what do you think?
 
I really like the looks of this case. First phantom i appreciate since the 410. It seems to be watercooling friendly aswell.
Now we just have to wait that someone does a watercooled build in it and feeds us with pics.
I think with a custom loop inside it will look beast.
 
I actually cant decide between this and the gunmetal 630. Purely because this has the huge side panel lol but the 630 I think has a better design. Is there anybody on the forum who has case modding services?
 
I'm moving my rig into a gunmetal 630 soon to allow for more expansion in the future and whilst it's a gorgeous case I would definitely want a bigger side window if i could get one

I've decided to go for the gunmetal 630 as soon as my exams finish, and I also thought after a while I might have a go at cutting the window myself. How hard can it be :lol:

BTW heres a brilliant deal on it: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NZXT-Phan...ting_DesktopComponents_RL&hash=item1c3333eb62

Random facebook comp. I was so shocked when i got the email confirming i'd won. i didn't think anyone won those things. Currently i'm just gonna put my existing hardware into it but I have ideas for a future build i wanna do. Plus the 630 will allow me to water cool properly in the future when funds permit
 
Yup custom liquid cooling is a bugger in price terms. I found a good deal on a Corsair H70 with 2 SP120 fans included for £60 which I will use in my upcoming build. I know its got similar performance to some air coolers, but, this looks cooler :cool:
