Moving up through the case there are 7x PCI expansion slot covers. Each of these covers have perforation for maintaining better airflow, each cover also has a thumbscrew for easy removal. To the side are 2x circular rubber grommets for water-cooling tubes.

In terms of cooling at the front and top of Phantom 410 – there is a 120mm rear exhaust fan and a 140mm top exhaust LED fan. Both of these cooling fans are connected to the fan controller by default. Next to the top mounted fan is an additional spot for installing another 120/140mm fan.

Over on the other side as already mentioned – there are 3x 5.25” drive bays – each of these bays have a tool-less design mechanism that we have seen many times on NZXT cases. The ribbed section just needs pressing in when the drive passes through the bay and upon release the pins will slot into the mounting holes on the drive. The switch acts as a lock. On the edge of the cage are thumbscrews – these have been placed here for future usage and are handy for keeping spare screws.

Beneath the optical drive storage are 2x HDD cages, here there are 6 trays for installing 2.5” and 3.5” drives. The top cage is removable and allows access to the 120mm intake fan behind and improves graphics card clearance should it be removed. Move on the HDD installation in the next section.

Over the page we will report back on the installation process – including all clearance compatibility.
