The Phanteks P300/A should be about the same size as the case you were looking at.

Thanks that is my other option just like that you can open the S100TG's side panel so easily (would help when pushing the system every now and then)
 
Yip but can't find a nice small compact I like with front mesh... Are all fans standard and the way you install them determines if the pull in or push out air ?


Smaller than the one you listed but more expensive.

I have a Phanteks case with the glass panel and fiddle with my PC pretty often...the 4 screws are no biggie.

I'd rather have that minor inconvenience than a case with obvious airflow issues. A case is something that can be kept for multiple builds so choose wisely.

Listen to this man else you end up like kiepie over here that had to permanently remove the side panel.

Comes with 2 fans too.
This is obviously subjective, but I have a phanteks P400S and a fractal design meshify c, and the FD is a better case.

the side panel is better, the drive bay is better, it has a nice MB locating pin, the cable management is better, and it looks better.

obviously the phanteks case is 4 years old, so cannot say how it compares to a new P300
 
Any difference between these coolers ?

Finally got my new rig done late last night. Didn't realise what a pain in the arse installing an AIO was going to be!

The build didn't start out great, either: got all the hardware at around lunchtime yesterday. Opened everything like a kid on Christmas morning, only to find that one of the CPU pins was bent. And obviously, there was nothing at home that I could use to fix it. Rang the supplier to see what they could do. Had to send photos and then wait for their service department to get back to me (still waiting). So, 4hrs later when I finished work, I went into town and eventually came back an hour later armed with a magnifying glass and a scalpel. Pin sorted!

Painful building experience aside (was definitely the most annoying build I've ever done), she's purring along for now - only just finished updating Windows, so can't really throw anything at it yet.

Second one looks like the RGB version of the 212 (which has always been one of the building community's favourite coolers). It's very good. BUT, make sure it's going to be sufficient for your CPU, obviously. It's a trusted but old design now.
 
Thanks and any difference between these ram modules, not sure if the last one has a warranty

Hi guys,

I need your help here on my upcoming build. I recently purchased a Phanteks P500a case. It comes with three front 140mm DRGB fans. I’m planning to add four more Coolermaster 140mm ARGB fans (One on the rear and three on top). I’m planning to pair this with the MSI B550 MPG MAG GAMING PLUS mobo.

In total I will have a total of 7 fans (one rear, three from, three top). So my question is how can I connect all these and still be able to control them with the MSI RGB software.
