Phanteks Eclipse P600S (PH-EC600PSC_BK01) Hybrid Silent and Performance ATX Chassis - Fabric Filter, Dual System Support, PWM hub

Purchased this case for my new PC build as i switched from AMD to the new intel 1700 12gen processor. Had to start over with new everything and this looked like the perfect case after much searching. I have to say im impressed, the quality of the material, design and layout are all great. Yes it does a pretty good job of keeping things quiet and airflow is good too. And an added plus its fairly simple but modern sleek design allows for plenty of surface space for custom paint. See attached pictures to see the before and after if you're curious.Cons, not much room in the bottom for harddrives/storage if you use them. Considering most newer builds need those larger PSUs to provide that extra power you loose a lot of space, especially with all the cabling. Aside from that i dont really have anything else con wise about the case to mention.As a mention of note, i had to order, return and reorder this case three times due to the warehouse sending me the wrong white case until i just gave up and purchased the gray one instead. With a week turn around each time and calls to amazon i just gave up lol. In the end it the case is still superb imo. Just keep the above in mind if you order the glacier white and they send you the matte.

Phanteks cases and fans are very good overall and support team is top notch. The Eclipse is loaded with features and it’s nearly as large as a full tower case. Building a computer and upgrading components inside will be easier with the Eclipse than the majority of other mid-tower options. The stock fans keep things cool. The fans may not spin fast, but their design allows them to effectively push a lot of air and keep it moving without having to ramp up to insane rpm’s. The case is insulated. According to Phanteks, it used sound insulation designed to reduce fan noise emanating from within the case. Hard drive bays can be installed in 3 different locations. The included fan hub is convenient and straightforward. Cable management is a cinch. The front I/O has two USB A and one USB C connectors, a reset button, and separate audio and mic auxiliary ports. Audio and microphone quality thru the front I/O is fantastic. It transmits loud, high quality sound with no interference. The Eclipse has plenty of clearance for fans and radiators and the tracks on the top and front of the case allow multiple cooling configurations.The side panels open wide and are removeable, which makes everything accessible. The front and top panels can be removed as well. Leaving them on suppresses fan noise, but they restrict airflow somewhat. Removing them increases airflow but fan noises are more audible. In my experience, the front and top panels can be left on most of the time without negatively affecting the temperatures inside the case. However, under extreme loads removing the front and/or top panel can lower temperatures a tad. Airflow is good enough that removing the panels only made a difference of a few degrees. The best way to improve airflow is to upgrade the fans to something like the Phanteks PH-F140MP_BBK02, and then tweak the fan curve on the motherboard. But only people who push their computers hard will need to upgrade the fans. In its stock configuration, the Eclipse is rated as one of the coolest mid-size towers on the market. My experience confirms that.I will nitpick a few things. The PSU shroud cannot be removed. That is a bit odd considering the versatility of the case. The space behind the motherboard (where the cables are) is a bit narrow in proportion to the massive size of the case. That space isn’t narrower than other cases (it’s wider than my last case), but a few millimeters of extra space would’ve been appreciated. Lastly, the tracks that secure the fans are thin. They aren’t flimsy, but they don’t feel as sturdy as the rest of the case.Overall, this is an excellent case. It has a simple, modern ascetic that doesn’t scream “Gamer” and it’s available with clear or solid panels. Solid panels are surprisingly uncommon these days, but that’s my preference. The solid panel option looks slick and should offer better cooling and noise suppression because of the additional insulation. The Eclipse is quieter and cooler than my previous Thermaltake cases, and it outperforms the cases my friends use for their computers by a longshot. The sound insulation works well enough that I can have the computer on my desk just a few feet from my head and I hear nearly nothing when gaming and watching videos.

Not only does it look good, but it is so quiet, they put extra thought into the engineering and process of it. I love it. You have a smart concept of a mesh (magnetic removable front and top plates) with magnetic mesh filters, and the space available is incredible. Cable management was a breeze and I threw a 360mm NZXT cooler and 2 extra fans, 4 HDD and everything else and it was easy. The side panels open and close everytime, you can remove them with ease if you want, and when you want to push your PC to its peak performance all it takes is 2 magnetic panels to allow more air in. The build quality shines and I can tell that regular cleaning won't be so often with the mesh trays at the top, front panel, and under the case. I love this case. it came with everything I needed and more that I didn't expect at the price point. She's a beauty... if you want the best this one def is in the running.

I'm satisfied with it as a beginner PC builder.It's sturdy enough, being mostly of steel construction, though with some non structural i.e. superficial plastic pieces that serve barely more than aesthetic purposes.Easy to remove door panels, yet they are sturdy and close tightly with the magnets installed on them.The tempered glass has a faintly dim tint that gives my master cooler Evo 212 rgb a hint of smokiness but not so much as to obscure the details of the mb.It was easy to assemble, seems pretty modular, has plenty of room, and it looks great.Even though I mostly intend to use this for my gaming PC, this thing has 4 complimentary HDD mounts that house both 3.5 inch and 2.5 inch drives in addition to the 3 2.5 inch HDD/SSD mounts on the cable management side, with the option to place up to 6 more mounts (not included obviously) in the main bay, making this case great for a media server or such.Its not the strongest case I've felt (I have some dinosaurs from the early 2000s), but it is sturdy.The cable management seemed a bit ify to me, but I'm a beginner with this sort of thing, although cable management is something I'm OCD about, so I felt like something was off with this design compared to others I've seen.All in all its a great case, and I'd recommend it for those looking for a reasonably functional and affordable case that still looks good.
