Phobya WaCoolT UltraBig Watercase Black - Aluminum Edition

The first truly water cooling-oriented enclosure: The Phobya WaCoolIT mATX-1 Case black!

Phobya is a legend in the water cooling and modding sector. Hence it was only a question of time until Phobya was goind to develop a whole new enclosure which would improve on the insufficiencies of standard enclosures. Hence a modular concept was developed, allowing the customer to create the perfect enclosure!

1.5mm thick steel makes the enclosure extremely rigid and sturdy, helping with repeated changes to the system. Every black powder coates component, front & rear, inner structure, side panels: Truly everything can be removed or changed. No rivets, everything is mounted with M4 hexagonal socket screws! This gives modders a whole new dimension of possibilities in enclosure modification. But not only case modders will enjoy this enclosure as the foundation for their system. These enclosures are only the foundation for your system, as all components can be replaced. You prefer a side panel with a Plexi window in it? A top plate prepared for radiator mounting? Simply put the piece you want on the enclosure! And Phobya is continously developing additional different components.
Maximum versatility and individuality being the main feature of this enclosure, no buttons or switches are included with the enclosure, as the two 19mm holes in the front of the enclosure can be used to fit just the buttons you want! Many buttons and witches on the market are compatible with this system, and if you are looking for great quality you will also find many high-grade compatible switches and buttons in the Phobya portfolio.

The enclosure is shipped fully assembled despite the modular design!

Water cooloing is a topic on which development of this enclosure focussed. Tubing and cable loop-throughs were oiptimized for this application. All rubberized openings for hoses or cables allow removal of the protective rubber frame to allow installation of Fillports compatible with 25mm holes. Many different radiator-, reservoir and pump mounting options are integrated. With this enclosure Phobya has brought the first truly water cooling-optimized enclosure to the market!

Mainboards and graphics cards:
Especially in the high-end sector, in which many water cooling users feel at home, compatibility with large Mainboards and graphics cards is essential. Hence this enclosure is not only compatible with standard ATX, mATX, eATX and µATX, but also allows mounting of SR-2 boards without any rebuilding. Even for large graphics cards, especially Dual-GPU cards, this enclosure offers plenty of space. Without modifications to the enclosure, graphics cards with a length of up to 40cm can be installed. Should even more space be needed, the dirve mounts can be removed, giving space for 58cm long cards.
