Exterior


The Phantom 240 is a very elegant looking beast, it’s lavished with strong lines and huge sweeping curves. The left side panel features a sloped window which is fitted with crystal clear perspex, giving a very uncompromising view of the chassis interior.

The right side panel is just a blank white panel. While it is hard to see in these pictures, the white of the left and right side panels is a little less bright than the top and front panels, they appear to mis-match a little with the rest of the case, which is a bit of a shame, but not something you would really notice without looking for it.

The front panel features a funky door panel that hides all the front drive bays, below which you’ll find a large mesh section and room for two 120mm / 140mm fans, with a single 120mm pre-installed.

At the top right is a LED power indicator, power and reset buttons, HD audio jacks and a pair of USB 3.0 ports.

The front door panel features a push-click release system, press on the left side and the door will pop open.

Behind the thick front panel you’ll see three 5.25″ drive bays, each with a cover which can be removed from the front thanks to the little black clip on the left of each panel.

The fan mesh is unfiltered, so may clog up with dust from time to time, but the front panel is removed with a quick pull at its base, so maintainance shouldn’t be too difficult.

Around the back you can see just how tall the top panel is, giving clearance for fans above the motherboard and perhaps even a slim water cooling radiator. Below that you’ll find a 120mm / 90mm fan mount with a 120mm pre-installed fan, two cable / water pipe routing grommets, 7 ventilated expansion bays and a bottom mounted PSU cut-out.

The top panel features plenty of ventilation and below that you’ll find room for 2 x 120mm / 140mm fans.

A clip-in thin mesh on the base will help provide clean airflow to your PSU and the optional 120mm fan mount. Four large rubber feet provide good ground clearance and should also help reduce vibrations from your system.
