Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV

[Mildphil]

After viewing the video of this case, I did some research as I am in need of a new one. The aesthetics are top notch, very clean, the internal layout seemed fine too until I realized it is only a Micro ATX case. This case had some major, potential, but due to the side IO, small form factor, and limited water cooling, I will have to pass. I feel if the case had top IO, and was a mid or full tower, they would sell like crazy, plus the majority of people making pcs use midtowers, espically premium cases like what Phanteks is trying to pull off. hopefully they release a mid/full tower version with water cooling in mind and relocated IO. What do you guys think about the phanteks evolv?

I think it is one of the best looking cases to come out this year. Boy would i love a mid-tower version.

Why don't you take a look at the Phanteks Enthoo pro?

I actually think the size plays an important factor in the design, i honestly couldn't imagine this not being compact. The I/O is really disappointing though, kinda weird combined with the window on the other side

I was looking at that or the NZXT h440 now. $10 difference.

If you like air flow go for the Phanteks.

Same wish it would fit ATX boards

i stretched it out to make a mid/full tower look, I think it looks even nicer.

What makes it flow better? I don't know too much about it. I needed a case that can support triple rads with a radiator shroud, so the nxzt and the pro appear to be my only options. What are the pros and cons of each?

Lol, im not going to go through all the pros and cons. 

I'll give you some of the main points of info.

 

-H440 has small vents for air making airflow worse than the Enthoo which is very open.

-H440 does look better than the Enthoo but it lacks space for optical drives.

-Enthoo is full tower, H440 is mid tower.

-Enthoo has better cable management than H440.

-Enthoo can support fans on the drive caddies.

I guess I will make my decision soon, and airflow isn't huge for me because I am not overclocking. Thanks for the info though, I appreciate it.

If you want a personal opinion: get the enthoo pro.

Whichever case you do pick becareful of the arcillic panel because they both scratch easily.

My cousin recommended this case to me, I like how open it is and appears to be very clean and easy to manage.
