Okay so i want to get a new case for my skylake build.

 

Ive had my eye on this case: http://www.phanteks.com/Enthoo-Evolv-ATX-TemperedGlass.html

Is there anyother cases out worth considering?

 

Requirements are:

Tempered Glass (Yeah im getting on the glass bandwagon)

Budget is £200 / $250,

Has to fit a 360 radiator and space for custom cooling (one pump and res, not a combo)

 

Notes:

I am not using a optical drive,

my drives are SSD's so storing them is not a issue (they can be stuck anywhere on the case i dont gave a damm about drive cages)

GPU dimentions: 279 x 140 x 36 (in mm)

mAtx motherboard,

basement is prefered.

Yes yes yes. Get that case. I've always wanted that case and it's just a good piece of work.

i wouldent get any other case, thats IMO the best looking case on the market as far as i am aware. it looks amazing

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Your first choice is what I'd go with, but I've become a Phanteks Phan-boy (heh). 

 

Brother got the P400 Eclipse, I have the pro, friend got the ITX, all are awesome

Different PCPartPickers for different countries:

UK-----Italy----Canada-----Spain-----Germany-----Austrailia-----New Zealand-----'Murica-----France-----India

Well, with an i7, GTX 1080, Full tower and flashy lights, it can obviously only be for one thing:

Solitaire.

Heh okay,

Ive looked over this case alot and i agree on all of this,

Im still open for choice if there is a new case that meets my requirements still

because some time will pass before i have enough money to buy it and obviously this year is tempered glass so there might be something new around the corner!

I always recommend Phanteks before anything else, with one exception: budget micro ATX cases, because Phanteks just doesnt make one. 

 

but yeah, Phanteks is amazing, you cannot go wrong. 

 

I recommend picking up a NZXT Hue Plus to go with it.

I got the Hue Plus because I have the Kraken x61, and I plan on getting Aer fans when they come out.
