Product overview
Released in July 2020 as part of Phanteks’ Eclipse family, the Eclipse P500A D‑RGB Black targeted builders who wanted the airflow-first evolution of the P‑series with lighting control built in. In our case tiering it sits in the high_end mid‑tower segment — a roomy, mesh‑front chassis that exists to make high‑power builds easier to cool without exotic layouts. It has since been listed as End of Life by Phanteks.
It fits ATX, micro‑ATX, Mini‑ITX, and even E‑ATX (up to 280 mm wide), clears 435 mm GPUs and 190 mm tower coolers, and supports radiators up to 420 mm front and 280 mm top. Front I/O includes USB‑C Gen2, dual USB 3.0, audio, and on‑case D‑RGB controls. Storage is extensive (up to 10×3.5 in + 3×2.5 in). A notable extra: optional dual‑system support via a Mini‑ITX kit.
