If you see this out of stock, keep refreshing, this keeps coming back in stock every hour or so. Amazon also change the delivery date as always to an earlier time. For me it changed to Dec 8 from Jan 23. Good luck!

I have been looking for this case for a while and planning to complete my build in February. The price is not awesome, but availability and free shipping make it a good deal. Newegg has it with $10 shipping.

I narrowed down my choice to two cases: Lian Li LANCOOL II MESH RGB White (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...DER&psc=1) and this. The larger radiator support and nicer look (IMO) convinced me to get the Phanteks P500A

Echoing the comments above. This is the case I wanted because of extra clearance for radiator and fans at the top and I was watching for it to come back in stock. Glad I didn't have to buy through newegg since I've become unhappy with their service lately.

Highly Reccommend this case, I just built in it this past weekend. It was a breeze, easy cable management and plenty of room.

Personally, I would buy P600s for $10 more.

The two are super close. P500a is one year newer than the P600s and was highly reviewed by gamers nexus for being the best airflow / temp case. Based on user reviews here and on newegg, it appears that the P600s has SLIGHTLY worse cooling / airflow but much better filtration so if you have cats and lots of dust it will better protect your interior parts. P600s is also quieter if you run it with the covers.

Personally I decided to go with the P500a 1) simply because I think it looks a lot nicer with the RGB, but this is pure personal preference 2) gamers nexus review and temperature is one of my most important features, 3) newer model.

On amazon now you can get the black one in stock by this weekend. I personally really liked the look of the white and have that on backorder at newegg but for guaranteed delivery and $10 less I will go with the black as this is the last piece of my new build. Will continue to keep and eye out and refresh for the white though =)

Glad I double checked this thread. Was waiting on the Black case from newegg, but due to the back order I cancelled and ordered it from Amazon. Now I'm just waiting on my EK AIO 360 to complete my build!

I ordered the Masterliquid 360 Mirror as I could get it for $102. In which aspects EK AIO 360 is better? I feel that any 360mm AIO is an overkill for any of the desktop CPUs out there.

Aside from the Arctic 360 and EK are the 2 best AIOs you can get.

I really like this video and other videos on cases. But he never compared anything with coolermaster AIO. Not sure why he never even tried a coolermaster one. Tom's hardware recommends coolermaster 360R as its top choice. So, I am kinda confused.
