Computex: We Get Up Close With The NZXT Phantom 530




/ 11 years ago

The NZXT Phantom is one of the most popular chassis designs on the market, in fact NZXT are one of the most accomplished and popular brands on the market and while the original Phantom is still a great chassis, NZXT figured it was time to revisit the classics and give it a new lease of life by tweaking, nipping, tucking and customizing almost every aspect of it to meet the demands of more modern gaming rigs.

The Phantom 530 is set to be $10 cheaper than the original phantom was at launch, making this great value for money although of course you could likely pick  up the older one for a lot less these days.

There will be black, white and red editions available and all the features of the original Phantom are present, if somewhat refined and improved.
