Review: Phanteks Enthoo 719 (aka Luxe 2)
Meet the Phanteks Enthoo 719, a full-tower PC chassis with some RGB in it (not exaggerated), which already had its debut back in August 2019. Although half a year has passed since then, there’s a good reason for this delayed review. We’re going to use this chassis for some interesting stuff later, but not without presenting the product to Guru3D readers first (at least those of you who didn’t have a chance to read about it elsewhere).
You can read the full review here.

Hmm I'm not sure if this is the case, but with my Entoo , there are 2 spots to mount a SSD.
However a bracket is required to mount the disk to the case, and it only had 1 bracket.
On these photos's i do not spot any brackets for the backside, which would mean you would have to buy 3 brackets if you would want to use it on the backside. (which should have been included IMO).
That would be the one negative point for me i guess.
But their cases are really awesome, everything has been thought of very well, and cable management is handled very well! This design looks really nice as well.

I like phantek cases but this one seems to have lost the Phantek spark, the psu cover seems half arsed and given the main cables that would exit the front are for the gpu the cutout makes the cable look untidy, it would of looked better with 2 horizontal slots to keep the cable flat, its good that the psu is side mounted to allow space for a bottom rad but the psu cover should have been full length, the metal panel vent style doesnt look right either with the curved front panel.
I use a Phantek Enthoo pro in white and urban camo and my spare case is a Corsair Air 540 in white and camo that i am using while im doing some hydro-graphics and modding on my Phantek case but i would not swap either for this one.

I quite like this case but I honestly can't stand the colour.

I had the previous one for a time... That wasn't too diferent from this one.
It's a nice chasis but forget it if you want to make a compact dual system, even in total WC it is not able to escape all the heat produced exept with (noisy) full speed fan.
If you want to go dual system in a single box from this company you have to take the upper model PH-ES916E (but this time it is around 1000 Euro) wich is intended for this use.

Such a cool case! I only wish that it was available in white.
And...where is the P500A & Pro II that they announced in Jan?
