THE BAREBONES

THERE IS NO CHANGE HERE with the first step for both of our machines. It’s off with the panels for this Phanteks P400 on the AMD build. It’s great to see exactly what you are working with and give yourself as much room as possible. The tinted glass panel comes off easily once the four corner screws are removed. Thankfully for this case, they aren’t as fiddly as they often are on PC cases. Speaking of the devil, two of these more fiddly thumb screws are found around the back securing on this panel. Our advice, use a screwdriver for these ones. For the front panel, you need to give it a hard pull from the bottom to pop it off. It’s always scary the first few times but don’t sweat—it should be fine, fingers crossed.
