It's about time.The Phantom 820 has a lot of features, a lot of support for intermediate and expert builders alike, and is poised to clear the way for enthusiast excellence. I'll reiterate what I opened with: I've never worked with a case that made system...
HUE lighting system, Stylish design, Lots of room for watercooling, 4 included fans (3x 200mm, 1x 140mm), USB 3.0 support, Easy installation, 4 channel fan controller, Lots of cable routing holes
Hard drive trays do not always lock into place
When I first heard of the Phantom 820 I wondered if it was going to be a brand new design. The 820 has a lot to live up to as the original Phantom was such a success. I think NZXT did a great job taking the best features that were in the original Pha...
There's no doubt about it - NZXT Phantom 820 passed with flying colors. It is easy to read that the company worked on this part for two years, and polished practically every part of the Phantom design. The case is spacious and has plenty of features wh...
Surviving our enthusiast testing process isn't a chore to be taken lightly. Every case that comes through the [H]ard|OCP labs is thoroughly examined, pushed to the limit, and tested in ways that we feel gives you an accurate assessment of the product's ab...
It's rare for a case to stand out these days, as the case market is littered with average performers, but the Phantom 820 stood out in many ways. The case has almost every feature you could ask of it, and more importantly they're implemented in sensibl...
Great looking exterior, Can be used for any number of configurations from lowest to the most extreme configurations, The large fans used throughout the system help move monuments amounts of air while being quiet, Beautiful lighting system can be used in a enthusiasts system to really accent the color scheme they may be already going for, Water cooling can easily be added later on, 9 expansi
Expensive, especially for a product that has a plastic exterior, Heavy, Extremely large, Flimsy drive sleds
Performance in system is about being able to effectively keep temperatures down while at the same time not making so much noise as to be distracting. The NZXT Phantom 820 succeeds immensely by using its three large 200mm fans to move large amounts of ...
Top-notch construction quality, Advanced lighting system, Air filters for the front, left, top, bottom, and power supply fans, Four-channel, 12-speed fan controller, Nine expansion slots with vented covers, Support for CEB, EEB, E-ATX, and XL-ATX motherbo

The NZXT Phantom 820 is a much better case than the original Phantom, from its construction quality and materials used to its impressive set of features. This better quality, however, has a huge price tag; the new Phantom 820 is twice as expensive as the...
Multi-color HUE lighting built right in, Multi-zone LED lighting option, Multi-zone four channel fan-controller, Fans can be turned off completely, The Phantom all grown up, Extremely well engineered interior layout, Plenty of fans right out of the box, C
Fragile HDD trays and, in our sample, screws that are too short for 2.5" HDDs, HDD trays only accessible from the messy side, No HPTX support, No 3.5" drive bay, Screw-less locks for ODDs do not hold that well
NZXT has tried pushing into the 200+ USD case market before, and while the Khaos was an interesting case, its overall success was limited. NZXT has now taken the Phantom and grown it out into a fully-fledged monster. "Not only bigger, but better" holds...
Abstract: Video Review: The NZXT Phantom 820 Case is a true full tower case in that it is massive. It's also loaded with excellent features. The case looks stylish, comes stock with 3 200mm fans and a 140mm, but more can be installed. Impressive lightening sys...

Abstract: The Phantom 820 is NZXT's sidewinder missile, and they have it aimed right at the top of the market for gaming cases. The nice man from FedEx showed up at my door just a few hours ago, lugging this huge box through the pouring rain. And when I say huge, t...
