Transferring my build into this :)

[Pepi93]

I've been looking to get a new case for some time and also try closed loop cooling for my CPU, mainly to free up space inside instead of the Noctua because when I need to tinker around it's hard to do anything with that big block in there.

I picked up a Phanteks Enthoo M Pro SE Case, Corsair Hydro Series H100i V2. Also posting my current setup.

Let us know how you like the case. I've yet to hear a single complaint about a Phanteks Case. Though, now you may have to get a Phanteks cooler?

Naw, My modo is put as many different brands in there as possible

I went with the Corsair because of it's rep for 240mm coolers, if I was putting in a 280 I'd go with the Kraken x62 most likely.

I also picked this case because of the interior layout, PSU shroud, the fact that only 1 side was tempered glass and it had a 5.25" bay because I still want one.

Posting pics later

Again, my mobo doesn't have an RGB header so I'm just using the front panel SATA connector for all...purchased 3 additional phanteks fans, 2 high pressure for the corsair cooler...which are much better with both performance and noise level...also purchased 3 halos and 2 rgb strips...tried to get individually sleeved cables white/black but the set wasn't compatible despite the bitfenix saying they should be.

The case I like very much except for how difficult it is to take off the front panel so I can clean the dust filter...I'm afraid that after a few dozen pulls...the clips will be done...The glass panel also doesn't have those thumb screws that prevent the glass from falling off so you have to be careful when taking it off...

Other than that, love it...

I don't get why the pics are flipped, originals are not.

The last is my new mouse pad and cable management I'm happy with considering those are all stock EVGA cables. I managed to get rid of the bulk by adjusting so the side panel slid on with ease. They could have made the case with a few more mm of space on that side...even 2 mm would make a huge difference but it's ok and with individually sleeved cables there would be no issues.

What would really help is 2x SATA cables instead of 4x which is what I have in there and too many

Very nice, I have the Luxe with glass and it's gotta be one of the best cases I have ever had

clock? I only changed the cpu cooler, case and aesthetics...all other components are the same
