Introduction

I would like to thank Phanteks for supplying the review sample.


We had the pleasure of reviewing the Enthoo Primo when it was released and Phanteks is now offering a smaller chassis with the same genes. The company has the following to say about the new Luxe chassis:
Staying true to the Phanteks’ Enthoo line, the Luxe features a sandblasted front and top panel. Ambient lighting run from top to front of the case on both sides. Even though smaller in size, the Enthoo Luxe boost many features from the award-winning Enthoo Primo. The Luxe comes pre-installed with a 200mm front fan and 2x PH-F140SP fans. Phanteks’ Enthoo Luxe has an extensive watercooling capabilities that allows for four different radiator mounting locations as well as sizes.

Packaging


Phanteks ships the Enthoo Luxe in a fully colored cardboard package. The front comes with image of the chassis itself, while the rear accentuates the unit's features. Both smaller sides feature a lot of information, and you will also find two openings there to make lugging the package around easier.


Within the box, two Styrofoam spacers hold the Luxe in place. They do seem to work well, but are not sturdy enough to hold the weight of the chassis as you take it out of the box. You should take care not to let the enclosure slip out of your hands as you do so.
