Benchmark: CPU cooling

The Phantom 410 has been designed with high-end components in mind and it does an excellent job of keeping our Core i7-980X processor cool during a demanding stint of Prime95.

With the three pre-installed fans running at low speed, the chassis' CPU cooling performance is roughly on par with Corsair's Carbide 500R. Set the fan controller to maximum, and the Phantom 410 pulls ahead of the pack by delivering the lowest under-load CPU temperature we've ever recorded in a mid-tower chassis.
