NZXT Phantom 820 Case
NZXT launched its Phantom 820, from the new Crafted Series Phantom line of premium gaming PC cases. This ATX full-tower comes with a stylish new design. The NZXT Phantom 820 full tower case is the next flagship case design to come from their crafted series. The Phantom 820 is larger than the original in width and height but smaller in depth, with a size of 235mm x 650mm x 612mm. NZXT kept the general aesthetics the same but many of the features have been upgraded and improved.
The $250 820 will either be a defining moment for the company or yet another enclosure that gets lost amid the countless other competitors in a highly cut throat market says hardware canucks.
Measuring 210mm x 473mm x 490mm (W x H x D), the ATX full-tower case is designed for XL-ATX, E-ATX, ATX, mATX, and uITX motherboards. The case is designed with enough room for multiple 35 cm-long graphics cards, and water-cooling equipment, for which additional room can be made by removing portions of the drive cages.
From the outside, the Phantom 820 carries forward the same sleek lines and general dimensions as the previous Phantom but changes abound in every conceivable area. Not only has the exterior largely plastic finish (which is available in white, black and gunmetal) been faced with a dramatic improvement in quality but several discrete yet fully controllable LED strips were added for some flair. While the 820 and the original Phantom will be sold alongside one another, the 820 is obviously geared towards a higher end market segment. The generally “stealth” design continues onto the case’s topmost quarter where we find all of the I/O connectors alongside controls for the case’s front mount fan controller and control buttons. Unfortunately, due to its status as a large full tower case, all of these items will be hard to access should the Phantom 820 be placed under a desk.

Not bad, but a bit overpriced imo. Still prefer my Switch.
