> 24 hourSO i bought this case and let me tell you BUY IT especially if you have a NON RGB header mother board cause it brings your look up to date but with the cool new fan systems. BUT what I was mad about is i read all the info everywhere and saw that the fans IN the case are known as the dr12 system. SO I bought there dr12 PRO fan kit to add 3 more fans. BUT for some reason, they use different plugs with even a different pattern. SO i can not sync the lights and im here stuck with 2 different remotes and just leaving my fans on the red color. i am a bit upset for 175$ between both but i dont want to have to go through the return process. I made sure to buy there name brand fans WITH the same model number fans. BUT it seems there is an actual cheaper version of the fans installed they have no clips on the fans and different plugs. I wish i had known this before the 7 hour install and wiring job i did in the case. ALSO if you have a long power supply you have to bend the HDD bay to fit it in since the tray for the Power supply is not removable. But still worked out fine and LOOKS amazing. My old case had NO wire management and you can see between the 2 pics how nice this case can hide your wires. I would have given 5 stars HAD THEY made it aware durring purchase what fans to use for upgrading.

> 24 hourIm not amazed by the quality, but its not bad. Airflow is not bad considering how enclosed it is, but its not great either. The biggest problem I have with this case is the cable management behind the motherboard: theres not much room there. The power supply is a tight fit, but I got it in there. Also, the 3.5 HDD tray rack is NOT removable, so you cant really make any more room. Overall, the fans are OK, not great, but not too bad for the price. They only have two speeds, but they look great. I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that this case has TWO spaces for exit fans in the back. The fans are pretty quiet on low and not too loud on high. I never knew I wanted a remote control to let me control the RGB in my PC. Thats a GREAT feature that I dont think Ill be able to live without from now on. Overall, a decent case with a classy but relatively unique design. Overall Im pleased with it and I will consider cases from this company in the future. Recommended.

> 24 hourGreat Case. This was my 1st build in a very long time, so knew what to look for and did research before hand. Cable management was pretty simple. Re-routed most of it to clean it up(For my liking), but was OK right out of the box. For the price of the case, I also wish the case had the rubber grommets where you fished the wire through, it wouldve looked a lot cleaner. *Note* Only thing to watch out for is PSU size. If youre needing a large PSU make sure you look at the Specs of the size. Im currently using a 850 Evga G3 and it fits great no problems. You will also have to hook up PSU connections before you put it in due to space. All in all a Fantastic case and I am very pleased with the quality and design. Specs: AMD Thread Ripper 1900x ID-Cooling Zoom Flow 240 RGB AIO ASRock X399 Phantom Gaming 6 Corsiar Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB DDR4 3200 Nvidia Gefore GTX 1080 FE EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G3 2x NVMe Samsung 960 EVO(Raid 0)

> 24 hourI love the color modes, there are several. The fans keep my desktop nice and cool and arent loud at all. I hardly noticed them until I sat and listened for them. There is a ton of build room and fits liquid coolers without any problem, either tubing or compact. The dust filters work very well. I have animals and the hair only surrounds everything from his shedding but I havent had a hair pass through yet. The cable management will vary depending on you. you wont see them though so dont fret if it looks poor. DO BE WARNED - If you are using an ASUS ROG Maximus Hero or STRIX board, the standoffs will not align perfectly with the motherboard, it will stay straight and not effect building and will not damage it so long as long as you dont overtighten. The Built-in iO shield makes it off by a hair.

> 24 hourI purchased another darkflash case called water square 5 and Hated it. But with this case the company has redeemed my outlook on them. It has amazing airflow as well fits a cooler master 240 aio on the top with room to spare. Luckily the rivets were easy to remove for the hdd caddy seems I wouldnt use those anyway so I had plenty of room for the psu. FYI if you plan on using the hdd caddy the space for the psu will be a little tight but is still do able with a 750w rgb psu. Love how it looks. Terrified that it is mostly glass but at the same time looks amazing. Thank you for such a beautiful and colorful easy to use product.

> 24 hourSo i have had this case for maybe a week or so and i love it the style of it the glass not a scratch on it everything about it is 5 stars so why not a five star rating then well after a few hours on it being on a setting like rainbow or blue and white it goes to full red then after maybe an hour later the rgb fans go off so far not the fans or anything just the lights. not sure if that is normally or not ill change my rating when i get more info.

> 24 hourI like this Case except two things. First of all, the Psu shroud is bad design and then the led lights dont stay off once you restart your PC other then that, its a great little case and by no means its cheap but very pretty. I do not like Corsair cases so this one was perfect for my setup. i7 8700k z370 F strix 1080 ti 850w EVGA psu etc All fit well...HDD/SSD trays are cheap looking but very durable.

> 24 hourI bought the Darkflash Phantom on Amazon while it was on a big sale at $80 (vs retail $120 listing). To give some background, I’ve been building computers since I was 14 (23 years now) and work in IT so I’ve come across my fair share of hardware over the years. The case appealed to me because it is basically all glass and the lighting design looked clean and minimalist. That part does not disappoint, it’s pretty in person and looks easily like a sound system component in my entertainment center. I measured my space and verified vs the dimensions listed and it fits absolutely perfect. The case is quite tall, but narrow and short in depth/width. The lighting has a large variety of modes, with the standard RGB colors, rainbow, pulsing, and about 10-12 other flavors. Sadly, I don’t think it has straight white lighting which I was hoping for but it’s possible I may have missed it with the sheer amount of options. Build-wise, it’s fine. Cable management is pretty lackluster compared to most modern cases from major players like Phanteks, Corsair, NZXT, and Thermaltake. Considering everything is see-through, it would have been nice to see some metal shields or places to tuck / automatically wrap things, but you can get creative and make it work. There’s enough room for just about any component you would need to have, and you get 6 fans included which is pretty crazy. The two items many reviewers mentioned that I was concerned about when purchasing were the power supply spacing and the front fan bay spacing. Both are perfectly adequate. Don’t get me wrong, the space for both isn’t a ton, but you’re not crimping cables or starting a hotbox here. I’ve worked with many cases, and this was plenty acceptable. Like any case, have an idea of where you want things to go before dropping them in. Overall, this case is attractive and pretty easy to work with. I think it comes down to the design, if it speaks to you there’s few out there that mirror this exact styling. If the design isn’t a home run though, I’d go with something from one of the major players. The ones mentioned all have cases in the $70-80 range that are outstanding, albeit with less fans and lights.

> 24 hourThis case is gorgeous, no doubt about that. The glass does attract a lot of fingerprints, but unless you are moving it around constantly, once its in its place, just wipe it down once and done. I had a few problems while installing my parts. The SSD mounts on the side seem like a nice touch, but as others have mentioned, it makes it basically impossible to plug them into the SATA parts on the motherboard. I ended up resting my 3 SSD drives inside the 2 HDD bays and thats totally fine with me. Cable management is nice with all the slots through the panel, but since all 3 sides are glass, you see the mess on the other side. Not a problem for me due to how my case sits, but it might bother some people. While the RGB fans -are- addressable through your motherboard software, unfortunately it turned out my MSI motherboards Dragon Center is severely limited in its customization (didnt know beforehand) so I just left the lights on the default rainbow mode. You can also easily control the fan lights with a remote that comes with the case. Also beating another dead horse in the reviews, but the PSU sheath is a bit constrictive. My 850W Seasonic itself fits nicely, but the problem is dealing with modular cables and trying to plug them in after having inserted it, unless you map out all your cable needs ahead of time and plug them in before placing the PSU (and even then its a bit tough to squeeze it all in). Overall, I still love the case and Im still glad I got it, I just wish I had come across the right reviews during shopping BEFORE I had to remove and move things a few times while building. Its also extremely quiet, especially after coming from my 11-year-old build that sounded like an airplane :)

> 24 hourfront space stops airflow. bottom shroud stops bottom fan so you cant add a 4 fan cooling.fans are pretty but not strong enough. they list you can fit a 360 radiator in front but and 240 top but I had to put the graphics card liquid AIO way back to fit it and the front 360 doesnt line up with all the screw holes so I could only fit two. its placement of the front panel USB and other hook ups got in the way BIG TIME! I couldnt get good airflow without taking the front glass off altogether. I end up breaking the power switch because it didnt have a at least a plastic guard so it mashed against the wires and cords. I didnt want to return the AIO because this is the reason I got the case to begin with so I forced it and now have to manually touch a metal rod against the two now exposed power pins to start it up so I keep the computer on. When I set it in a way against the open window and block all but the front of the case to let it suck in all the cold air on a winter temps it allows really cold air to shovel into the case I get really good temps. I couldnt place the Graphics card AIO on the back because it didnt have room enough and was pushing on the $1500 card too much that it made me think it would break it so I picked the top and it worked fine till I got the CPU AIO and had to move it all the way back but still on the top. This could have been the best case I ever owned and on paper it was but when I put everything together it wasnt good. Back side panel should have been metal and the front side panel has space around the edge so it leaks air so I need to get something to place around the edge to make it flush with the case. I will contact the company to see about fixing the power button. I was glad I got it to work and IF they had done any research on parts to make sure it worked they would have found out the problems. it would have taken at least an inch and a guard for the front panel for it to work and half inch on the back bottom fans . they also needed to cut the PSU shroud to 240 to allow the front AIO to work better or make the case an inch taller. I had High hopes for this case and the idea is still good but they failed to test it with parts it says will fit and see they needed some changes. I have my Core I9 9900K running at 5.1 GHZ and RTX 2080 TI Overclocked 100 Core and 25 memory with fans at 100%. I would have given it 5 stars IF I didnt run into all the problems and still gave it two as when it works it works well enough. case is cost too much since I had the problems. Id lower it to $75 unless they can fix it. IF you go with 240 top and 240 in the front and dont mind all the screws not in place it would work better. I WOULD NOT BUY AGAIN UNLESS ITS FIXED! I really do want to give it a 0 star but I did like the case as it looks cool. Faster fans with the RGB, More air flow and make it adjustable on the motherboard is needed. the way I have it set up with the window turns this into a AC that cools my apartment.
