congrats ;-) but you better create a separate thread for the NZXT Phantom and show all of the pics with the PSu there .

for posting pics use free image hosting sites like imageshack or tinypic.

The review of CM Elite 431 Plus at techreaction.com said that the cabinet has bad cable management features. Is it true ? Should I go for it or go for Carbide 400R(i'll need to extend my budget for that)

Why not look at NZXT 210 Elite ?
It has - good look + good/better cable management + excellent cooling options (up to 7 fan setup out of which 2 included)+ tool less drive installations + Front USB 3.0 + cheaper than CM Elite 430 & 431.
It's only drawback - No Transparent Window.

If you're thinking of NZXT source 210 Elite, you must surely look into Bitfenix Merc Alpha too.

It's not about my cabby, it's suggestion for the_conqueror:cool:

And BTW about Bitfenix Merc Alpha, it's not available locally in India yet.

(-) compare to NZXT 210 Elite - No USB3.0, No tool less installation, only rear fan included, very little room for cable management.
(+) compare to NZXT 210 Elite - Four USB 2.0, Can install Two 120mm Fans on side panel vents.

400R is a beast.if you can extend your budget then surely go for it.but if you can't increase your budget then get source 210 elite for around 2.8k.better you discuss it somewhere else and leave this thread for elite 430/431 discussion.:wink:

^^ for showoff purpose getting the Transparent Side Panel makes sense and A70 will fit with the transparent side panel installed.

get CM 2K RPM 90 CFM Led fans @ Rs. 500 / piece - put one at the rear as exhaust / one at the side as intake and one on the upper left corner ( above cpu region ) as exhaust.
