The Phanteks NV7
The NV7 Features a seamless glass front and side panel which at first appearance looks as though it will impact airflow though this is not the case. Phanteks have designed the NV7 to provide great airflow and plenty of support for various cooling options on all other sides of the case which are covered with an ultra-fine mesh to protect your components from dust.

Component Compatibility
The Phanteks NV7 is a large case and provides plenty of room for large components. When it comes to motherboards you can fit up to an E-ATX motherboard which is 277mm wide as well as a CPU cooler with a maximum height of 185mm. For those new and CHUNKY modern GPU’s you won’t have any issues fitting them in as the NV7 offers up to 450mm of GPU clearance.
For your storage needs the case has plenty of room and supports up to 2 3.5″ drives or 6 2.5″ drives in the rear of the case.

The NV7 features velcro cable combs, an LED cable cover as well as a door to hide cables but also keep them accessible.
