  • The build quality on the Phanteks P500A case is good, and it's bigger than the P400A, which is a simple advantage. A bigger case means more room to work and more room to install parts; the downside is in finding a place to put it. Phanteks has sprinkled i...

  • Excellent thermal performance, Great cable management, Clean styling, Flexible interior, Space for an extra Mini-ITX board, Includes USB Type-C,
  • Too big for simple systems, Requires fan curve optimization
  • The Phanteks P500A is a big chassis aimed at providing great thermal performance and lifelong flexibility, and it delivers. With clean looks and even dual-system support topping it off, this is a chassis to shortlist...

  • My concluding thoughts on this enclosure is that at $99 USD I think it's competitive in terms of availability of features, like you can mount an ITX motherboard up top for dual system configuration, the vertical GPU mount, and it looks beautiful. For the...

  • When I first heard about the P500A from Phanteks, it looked like a pretty impressive new chassis with excellent cooling. However, once I got my hands-on it, I realized it was not only a great performer but very well built and structurally sound enough I w...

  • Impressive air flow and cooling, You can install huge amounts of storage or cooling, 1mm UltraFine Performance Mesh front panel looks great, Excellent user manual and accessory pack
  • Eclipse P500A makes no efforts to deaden noise, Case versions of SK fans are 3pin and not PWM, Phanteks is keen to sell you a great many accessories
  • P500A is a decent case but it is fair to say we have pretty much seen it all before, apart from the 1mm Ultra-Fine Performance Mesh front panel.The formula for building P500A is to take the P600S, remove the top and front panels with their Quiet panels an...

  • Finition, Châssis au top, Equipement, Verre trempé, RGB au max
  • Niveau sonore
  • Nous n'allons pas vous parler du châssis de ce boitier, car il est tout simplement excellent. Nous n'allons pas non plus vous parler des performances de ce dernier, qui sont excellentes aussi. Par contre, nous n'allons pas oublier de dire que les blancs e...

  Published: 2020-08-24, Author: Tim , review by: allround-pc.com

  • sehr gute Kühlleistung, einfaches Kabelmanagement, viele Laufwerkmontagemöglichkeiten ab Werk, hochwertige Verarbeitung,
  • keine PWM-Lüfter bzw. integrierte Lüftersteuerung, Kabelabdeckungen bieten kaum Mehrwert gegenüber herkömmlichen Methoden, einige Montageoptionen setzten separates Zubehör voraus,
  • Der Airflow-Fokus des Phanteks Eclipse P500A macht sich durch eine sehr gute Kühlleistung bemerkbar. Generell hinterlässt das Gehäuse einen positiven Eindruck, denn der Aufbau ist durchdacht und die Verarbeitung hochwertig. Es gibt viel Platz für Kabelman...
