Looks wise it looks awesome especially the red and black colour but specs wise HAF-x is a little better. It's up to you if you want a Stylish and Sexy chassis then go for nzxt :D

You didn't mention about which HAF XXX you are talking about ? this phantom is very nice plus its full tower chassis. If phantom price is cheaper then HAF 932 then grab this without any doubt. But if price is some how above then HAF 932 (full tower) then HAF is better. HAF = High Air Flow

if he is getting this case from abroad than the nxzt will cost him cheaper because cases like haf x are expensive here in pakistan so if some one is bringing the case with him from abroad it will be cheaper

If you are getting from abroad when your friend take one for you and land here then please do let me know about airport custom guys! Like do they ask to pay any duty or bribe (rishwat) if so how much e.g

the nxzt phantom cost 139 dollars abt 12000 pkr rs and haf x is 189 dollars abt abt 16500rs and here galaxy is seling it in 18k or 19k i think(correct me if i am wrong) so even if coustm officers asked for duties or bribe and his relataive manages to tackle well to the coustom officers by giveing them few bucks(4k-5k) the phantom will still cost him cheaper or the same price in which haf x is seling here in pakistan so its really upto the buyer that what is his priority cause both the cases are very good indeed and if the the buyers choose phantom he may get lucky if his case dosent get on the hands of coustom!!!!!!!

In that case I will prefer to buy here from local market. I would not want to take risk of custom guys and any damage problem due to long flight & la-jawab service by ba-kamal PIA :D I don't think so GC have HAF X in stock don't know about the price Someone on PG was saying they are selling Full towers chassis to those who buy Sandy Bridge package from them.

Ok, sorry to keep you all waiting on questions.

Heres the deal, a friend of mine is coming to Pakistan in a week or so, thats why i can get this from him.

Again i wasnt clear on WHICH HAF i said its better from.

So the battle was between:
Cooler Master HAF 932

VS.

NZXT Phantom


I will probably ask the person to
a. Open the box before hand so there are no issues.
b. Gift wrap it

Btw i was checking the customs tariff and there are no duties on computer cases (or maybe i was looking in the wrong section?)

I dont really want style over substance to be honest. but god DAMN does that case look cool :p

I see that everyone went for the HAF 922 as a primary when it came to performance, so my next question is...
HOW much of a difference in performance is there between HAF 922 and Phantom?

Any idea's guys?

As always, your support and feedback is really appreciated.

problem you will face here hydrated is...that people will never be able to tell you exactly whats best for you. come to think of it...no one amongst us has even seen a phantom...since its not available here....yet every1's saying that HAF is better. in my opinion....dont follow or do what every1 else is doing...be different...if you have the chance to be different...then why not. Go with phantom thats my recommendation.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!
