Already a proven design, the Enthoo Pro is now available with a tempered glass side panel. And while it isn't a standout, budget-breaking case, the Ethoo Pro TG does just about everything right. The steel body of the case is plenty sturdy, and offers lots...

It was originally thought unreasonable to offer an affordable case to the watercooling enthusiast since they tend to have bigger budget than other users. I you are willing to shell out $100+ for a water block alone an affordable case is not usually second...

Phanteks designed the Enthoo Pro to be "beautifully crafted, amazingly flexible, budget friendly and with maximized cooling potential". Of course, it is next to impossible for a product to excel at everything, such as appearance, versatility, quality, per...
