Phanteks has a new T30-140 fan that required 6 years of engineering to make. We're joined by the company's CTO for a technical discussion about it. He talks misconceptions, "bigger number better" marketing, fan engineering, and manufacturing processes. We also cover the new G370A budget Phanteks case, th eXT M3, and the Evolv X2 Matrix.
