If you're itching to build a dual-CPU system like a standard gaming box, you might be interested in Phanteks' new full-tower case, albeit a very large one. This is the Enthoo Pro 2, and unlike most chassis, it supports large SSI-EEB form factor motherboards.

For gaming, this is more of a "teaser" feature than a prudent one. Most SSI-EEB motherboards are super expensive, with some models selling for over $700 on Newegg. Then there's the cost of dual Xeon CPUs. It's a neat bullet point, but if you're playing games or streaming, a powerful consumer multi-core CPU is a better option in terms of value.

The Enthoo Pro 2 also supports the more commonly used (in the consumer space) E-ATX, ATX, micro-ATX, and mini-ITX form factors. Of course, building a mini-ITX system in this tower case may seem a bit silly with so much available space.

Anyway, cooling should not be a problem; there are 15 fan mounts dotted around for installing 120mm fans. Alternatively, a 140mm fan can be installed. Some of the fan mounts can be used for water-cooled radiators instead. Up to a 480mm rad on the front, up to a 360mm rad on the top, up to a 360mm rad on the bottom, and another 480mm rad on the side can be mounted. [It supports up to 12 hard drives (3.5") and 11 SSDs (2.5").

Another unique aspect is the front panel cover. Instead of a metal mesh cover, Phanteks uses "high-performance fabric" for better airflow. Specifically, it is made from nylon fiber, which Phanteks claims is "tough and durable."

Our friends at Toms Hardware reviewed the Enthoo Pro 2 and were generally impressed, except that it is "unnecessarily large" and does not come with a fan.

The case has been long awaited, shown off by Phanteks at CES and finally available for pre-order on Newegg. A slightly cheaper version without side windows ($129.99) will be available soon.
