I recieved this case a few days ago and it was perfect for a full sized ATX build. It meets a happy medium of simple designs but not overly simple like some of the the other NZXT cases. Very functional, easy to set up and compatible with a variety of mother boards, CPU coolers, etc.

Beautiful case, sleek, durable, spacious, customizable, great air flow and stock fans; Window shows all the important parts while hiding the dead space; Overall very gorgeous and functional case

It's very large; but to be expected with a full tower

In 2010, NZXT introduced us to its Phantom chassis, an aggressively designed, feature-filled case for mainstream users, gamers and enthusiasts alike. Now, NZXT has unveiled its direct successor, the Phantom 530.

Three colors to choose from; Modular HDD cages of different sizes; Tool free HDD and ODD drive mounting is very easy and very secure; On board single 30 watt three speed fan controller; Ten fan 30 watt fan hub; 2.5-inch SSD tray positioned behind mother board tray; Water cooling support for large or...

None

Looks good and overall very functional. The angle of the front USB ports makes it difficult to remove devices without damaging the ports over time. Also, it is a quite tricky to remove the top, to add fans or some of the factory-installed wiring.

Great case, fits my h110 corsair 280mm CPU cooler. Stock case fans are nice and quiet. Comes with some fitted LED lights inside. Plenty of room for cable management.

- Installing everything was very easy in this case. I moved the 140mm fan from the back and put it on the side panel. With the 200mm on the front and the 140mm on the side my hard drives are staying cooler than i thought they would.

- There is plenty of room inside to work as well as behind the side panel for cable management; - I like that i was able to restack the drive cages to make everything fit the way i want; - The LED's on the back make life easy, no more finding a flashlight to plug something in.

- Why the fan hub behind the motherboard tray does not have 4 pin connectors on it will forever confuse me; - I was thinking of knocking down the rating to 4/5 because 4 of the motherboard standoffs stripped with very little pressure and one standoff did not have any threads at all (was just a round...

Only 4 Stars because of the fan thing, other than that super nice case.

Great size and cable management ability, clean lines and slick design; Built for the GF and she thinks it looks like a storm trooper

The case I bought had no top exhaust fans; From what I can tell it never included any; Not a big deal to buy more and install but just a note; For those installing extra fans its best to install them before the mobo and other components

This is a great case to build in only thing I dont like is that the water cooling option for the 240mm rad in the top of the case is limited apart from that I would build in this case again

Installation of the MB, Hydro Pump, and MB Components was easy. The case comes with all the essentials needed for the build. Drive installation use three sections of drive bays that are interchangeable from 1, 2 and 3 combinations.

I bought this case solely on looks. I also liked the fact that it has a big side window.

Shrinking the new Phantom layout from what was the Phantom 630 super-tower down to what we see in the Phantom 530 was a good move in my opinion. While not as roomy as the larger version, the Phantom 530 took every advantage it could with the layout and what is offered.
