Looking to downsize

Hi!

 

I'm looking to downsize my case, currently using a Corsair Obsidian 750D, with a GTX 980Ti PNY (3 Fan long one) and an Corsair RM1000 PSU. As these are quite large components I'm looking for a mini-ITX case that'll suit them. I need to upgrade my motherboard and CPU so will change these along the way. Hoping to put an AIO cooler in there as well so radiator support would be good. 

 

So far, I'm leaning towards the Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV Mini ITX. Would this work? Does anyone have any other recommendations for cases that would be suitable? I liked the Corsair Air 240 but it wouldn't fit my GPU :(

First thing I'd want to know is how long the video card is.

 

(Spends 15 minutes in Google...)

 

How long is your video card?

Intel i7 8700k | Asus ROG Strix Z370-I | NVidia RTX 2070 Super Reference | Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB 3600MHz x 32GB | Samsung 970 Evo 500GB NVMe | Samsung QVO 1TB SSD | Custom Loop | Corsair RMx 850w Gold | Phanteks Evolv iTX TG (modded) | Acer Predator XB1

Max GPU Length:

290 mm

I personally would recommend the NZXT H200i or Nano S over the Evolv ITX. The Evolv ITX suffers from the same airflow issues of it's big bro ATX. 

 

Beyond that, according to PCPer theres not much else on the market that can hold a 300ish mm GPU like a Strix, a 240mm AIO and that long PSU
