Let me know your thoughts on the Evolv X down below! Is it overkill for your system?
Also - my RTX cards are in the mail, I'll have a teardown for you guys ASAP.

I just love the quality of you videos, they make my knees feel like jelliy
Since this case is really designed around custom water cooling, a custom loop would be cool. ;)
I've actually been thinking about doing a dual build, both for my use and when a friend comes over to play. They can just bring their mouse, keyboard, and/or gpu. Don't really care for the vertical mount, but potentially in a showcase build, you can show case the waterblock in a custom loop. Phanteks covered a lot bases with this case. There are not many cases that can fit a dual system and this is one of them while being relatively in a decent size. The back tempered glass at first doesnt seem impressive, but imagine a modded build and those metal covers could be used to show off artwork along with a custom cpu backplate.
We need to know about airflow and temp
@@abeidsalim8008 I think we can assume it will be about middle of the pack.
You are one of those underrated channels
I feel like I learned a lot more about this case than from other review videos from other channels. keep up the great work & continue producing quality content.
I'm properly going to end up buying this thing. Do I need that much drive space? No. Do I need the room for water cooling? No, I don't even think I'm going to be doing any water cooling. I just think it looks awesome, and I have the money...
yeah me too
Ditto. Just got one and may install an additional server in the case just for fun...
I got it. It looks awesome. It was a breeze to set up for a first build (though I may need to redo cable management at some point). But most of all, it looks fucking fantastic. I'm gonna stock it with 7 noctua fans and potentially a radiator on top and bottom and only have RGB on the cables and RAM.
@@joseluismanzana1606 Awesome to hear. I sadly didn't end up getting it (life and shit got in the way so I stuck with my old case), but I'm still dreaming of it :p
Yeah, same with me, the case is on it's way here along with all the other hardware for my first build, and honestly, this case was one of the only ones that looked good to me that had decent cooling, I'm only going with air cooled for now, but who knows, perhaps I will try some custom watercooling or something in the future and this case is perfect for that.
Even though it's a little bigger than a normal mid-tower case I am also fine with that, anything smaller than the full-tower I got right now is good, and it has extra storage mounts in case I need xD.
I ended up buying this case. One of the more expensive cases I've purchased but it is one of if not the best case I've ever owned. It turned into a $7k custom build, custom water cooled system. All front space I used for HDD mounts, all possible mount points occupied with hard drives. It leaves enough space to accommodate a dual fan GPU, currently using an Asus Dual 3070 OC. One day I might upgrade the internals, new board, CPU and GPU, but it will be hard to come up with something better than the Evolv X.
Your videos are very high quality and very enjoyable to watch you deserve more subs keep up the hard work
Glad you enjoyed, Mitch. Plenty of content around the corner!
You are a Very Underrated channel IMO. You provided the I.D.'s I needed. Your content is professional and detailed, Thank You!
Absolutely solid review. Need more videos like this on TH-cam!!
I'm really liking this case a lot, this just might be the case for my new build. Very informative video my friend, keep up the great work.
The B-rolls! They look so clean! LOVE IT! 😍
Thanks!
Inspired by HWC.
Well ... they got the best ones in the business, although Dmitri has increasingly tended to overdo it in some way, shape or form. That is my opinion at least. Anyway, this looks good :)
Wtf bro. U deserve more subs been watching u since June love your videos!
Thanks a lot!
Just came across this channel, it is so good! How do you have so little subs? You deserve more.
I just bought the case from pc case gear because of your review. Thanks! Cant wait for it to arrive
Great video. This is the type of content I want, very thorough and lots of information about the case. Subbed.
Just got the case today I'm already making a watercool build. I am liking this case.
Couldn't wait for this case, so got the PC-O11. Still pretty badass case. Im in love with the side fan options, for I can show off the beautiful RGB Fans.
I'm planning on picking one up, as a web developer something you need to run a server environment, so having the ability to run 2 system in one it a really a great idea
This channel deserves a Million subs! Straight forward and no gimmicks reviews ^_^
Preordered the Evolv X in black & changing from the H700i. Cant wait
Thanks fellow Aussie for a great and very well detailed review. Looking at this now in Nov 2019 for my next build - stunning case - your camera work is extraordinary with extremely clean hi-res pans of the case. No ventilation of the PSU shroud is such a silly oversight! I wish they'd make a smaller version without dual system capability, a ventilated PSU cover AND an internal optical drive. That drive would very useful and there are many who still want one for dis imaging, DVD creation and many other things. So much better than a USB external one. Cheers from Sydney, Aust. (P.S: Any idea when the next version is due?)
I really enjoy the port the the GPU power cable. It looks super super clean to me
Really like your case review videos. Great job!
Very nice review! Good work!
Already bought the Anthracite Grey, just waiting on the motherboard to come back into stock in 4 days. Starting off with just water cooling the CPU but when RTX 2080ti comes will make a loop for both.
i plan on picking this up love it
Congrats on 100k subs
Wow meshify keeps on dominating.
Hey sup dude I don't think you may remember me but am here from very beginning and you replied me early. I was sick dealing with serious issue was under therapy for almost 8 month am finally back and could enjoy your video. Your video are clean and perfect. Love from India and your follower
great video keep up the awesome work
Pre orderd this case the moment I could. Going for a sleek water cooled setup. Same colour option as you reviewed. Nice review btw, It was new yo me that GPU thermals aren't as good as other cases. No problem for me though. I have a question for you. Can you please tell me what model phanteks fans are included? Could not find the exact model anywhere. Thanks and keep it up!!
I have the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX TG and i love it! Looking at the new Evolv X it makes me want to upgrade due to all the little new details! I have 8700k clocked to 5.2ghz using corsair's h115i extreme AIO with EVGA's GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 clocked 2050mhz and everything is working perfectly
Pathetic I just got two rtx 2080 ti sli with i7 8700k delided oc to 5.1 ghz 64GB of RGB ram and 3 tb m.2 ssd and custom water cooling
In your dreams
Not ur pc, one, rtx2080ti dont SLI because it's Nvlink. Two, 3tb m2ssd cost 2grand, not even video editors wants to pay that. Three, wtf is customer eater cooling? You mean custom loop right? thats what the PC world calls it. Btw any of my brokerage accounts worth your life.
lf2074 talking to me?
@@lf2074 i payed 300 per m.2 drive 1TB each. I know its called nvlink now but after building pcs for the past 6 years the word SLI is practically engraved in my mind ao i atill confuse it sometimes.
Ive watched this review about 10+ times now because i have fallen in love with this case. Especially this colour. Im really hoping the airflow and thermals are as improved as you say
It's definitely improved from the original evolv so put 3 120mm fans on the front for best airflow
@@l04d83 i just bought the case and 3 noctua 140mm for the front. Should be good
@@AllThatJazOfficial that is more then enough I have a 360 mm radiator on the front and top with a 140mm pwm fan and it works amazing
how are temperatures inside the case now Jaz? i am considering this case
@@martinsandre3479 I get anywhere between 50 and 60 degrees Celsius with an OC i7 8700k 5.0 gHz
From other reviews :
The main issue is not the solid front pannel, but the dust filters (and the low static pressure of those Phanteks fans)
The rig is right next to me, but i still enjoy watching this
i feel that they should give you an option cover on the psu shroud by the front fans because not everyone puts a 360 rad in the front and you dont want those cables peeking out, something like fractal design does with their psu shroud.
First of all, I am a huge fan of your channel, mix of content and amazing quality of production!
I want to move away from my Fractal Design Define 7 Compact case to something with better airflow for my first water cooled build. Aesthetics and a quiet system are my top priorities.
I really like the build quality and aesthetics of this case but am I wrong to consider it for my RTX 3080 and 12600k ATX watercooled build where we are in 2022 when decent looking high airflow cases like the Fractal Design Torrent exist?
I plan on fitting:
1 x 420mmx45mm (front) radiator
1 x 280mmx45mm (top) radiator
5 x Noctua NF-A14 PWM fans (that I already have laying around)
Great review 💪
Dude your vids are so clean. Keep up good work
Thanks a lot!
I've been on the fence about this case, I have it preordered. I just dont know if I'll do this case justice. I have 8700k, evga 280 clc, strix z370e,1080ti ftw3 elite, 16gb vengeance rgb and a few ssd's and hdds looking forward to hydro x coming other then that looking at 0-11 dynamic or a r6.
I'd love for you to do an update build with this case using a hybrid GPU.
A use case for me would be using a system for music production, video editing, and digital art/graphic work.
This case is epic! I want this case!
beautiful case!
Any upcoming review/builds with the Phanteks sub brand Metallicgear? I've seen PC Case Gear list them up for sale (and as one of there pre-made-builds) using the ITX case, looks pretty good.. might be up youre ally
This is the perfect case for streamers using dual system setups.
I like your Dark/No-RGB builds! They look like rich guy's toys! :) I'm inspired to build one myself with nzxt case.
One thing tho, I don't see those black braided cables like you made yourself in a video, can you sell them?
Hi Optimum! Very nice video you have created! Do you think the Asus ROG Ryujin 360mm will fit in this case?
You are so perfect and so clean tech guy 🙏
@Optimum Tech
Please suggest me. I have i7 6700K + Kraken X52 + Aorus Xtreme 1080Ti. I am never gonna build Custom Loop for sure. So for a simple build like mine, which one would be the best choice? Phanteks Evolv X or Cooler Master H500M?
Thank You :)
would love to see you do a custom loop dual system build, work station + NAS, with either this, Phanteks P600S or Phanteks 719. People have done a dual system work station + stream capture build but not a work station + NAS build
Optimum Tech are you from Australia by any chance at all?
Becauce you mentioned PC Case Gear which is where I buy my parts followed by PLE Computers & MSY.
I'm located in Sydney btw 👍
Seems like the best WC case right now.
This or the Lian-li o11 Dynamic? Cant decide between the two for my next build.
Do you think you could fit two separate loops for the CPU and GPU with two 360mm radiators and two reservoirs?
This case would be amazing if it were actually available. I was online the night they went on sale and they were sold out in minutes, I couldn't even get payment info in fast enough.
I then pre ordered from new egg... that went to back order... then order status cancelled.
Will you be checking out the Geeek A40 mini ITX case?
Would love to know what the noise levels are for this case using AIO and numerous fans
holy shit man you got one!
can you test NZXT H400i with front 240 radiator push and pull? and the same graphic card as this video.
Just a note, for dual systems you need the Revolt X PSU that can power 2 systems at once. Or possibly a beefy PSU with Phanteks' PSU splitter. There's only room for 1 PSU. And you need the ITX mounting bracket. I pre-ordered the case+Revolt X 1200w+ ITX bracket.
Also this case wasn't meant to compete with the Meshify C or H500. Their P300 and P400 are their competitive cases for that market. The Evolv X is meant to compete with the NZXT H700i or Fractal Design R6. The large mid-tower do it all cases with high quality parts market.
Airflow is somewhat of a concern, but the fact that you can put 3 140mm fans at the front should create plenty of air flow for any GPU. I would have liked them to actually include 4 fans instead of 3 just to remove all doubt that airflow isn't an issue. But given the audience this is for, most people would add more fans regardless.
Soon to drop some money on gear from PCCG, have you got a affiliate link perhaps a discount I would love to support your work
I'd love to see you build a hardline loop in the Evolv X ;)
The only problem with this case is the hole in power supply shroud :S
For a ROG fan, i'd have thought you'd see a perfect reason to have a hole in the PSU shroud... Without it, you cant see all the glory of the new ROG Thor PSU's. lol
If you use the vertical option to mount the GPU. Can you still use the pci-e slots behind the gpu ?
Great video!!!! Where you get the music?
5:39 this cutout will be a perfect with an Asus Thor PSU :D
(and you're not lucky having PSU specs on the side. On my corsair PSU the side just show "HX1000i" and the specs are on the opposite side of the fan)
I would prefer the "old school" rubber grommets rather than whatever those things are. Other than that, it's a very good case.
I'm sure you could take them slidy plastic things out and make a dark perspex plate with the holes in the right place for a super clean build. There is no perfect case, but this is a hellova good start.
Is the PSU shroud removable? Nobody who reviews it seems to mention this...
Is there an option to turn the lighting off?
Just wondering I had recently bought this pc case not too long ago and am questioning the d-rgb connect for the case. My motherboard is a asus crosshair VI hero and have no place to connect the d-rgb connector to the motherboard (ADD Header). Is there a way I can connect the d-rgb to my asus crosshair VI hero so I can use use the AURA Sync program with it or would I have to get a new motherboard?
Even if the case is water cooled, you still need fresh air coming in thru the fans to cool the radiator fins. Even my old 570x is in the 50 degrees with my Asus 1080ti which is a huge ass card. I had high hopes for the Evolve X. I`m super dissapointed. Dimitri gave us horrible temps of 90 degrees for the GPU too.
Mid tower with 520mm height and 510 depth... Then what size full tower? From one meters?
why do you test the temp with 1070 and 1060? i dont think people that buy 200$ case will use a 1060.
Consider something else. Even if you choose the water cooling route, you still need air coming thru the fans to cool the radiator fins. This is something Ive been telling people and they still don`t get it. Right now I`m using the 570x and my GPU temps are in the 50`s. When I game I crank the fans to 60% it goes up to 60 degrees because if I don`t I`ll fry the thing. I`m super dissapointed because when I saw the Evolve X case in Computex I was stunned and I thought it was gonna be a great case. Reconsider. Good luck.
My 1080 Ti is currently in a watercooled build, and don't have other cards available at this time.
The 1060 was used so I could compare against other cases where that card was used.
I don`t know, I hope you are right because you still need air coming in to cool the radiator. Even if its a push and pull config. I was so hyped for this case now I`m, eh. I hope Jay does a test with a 1080ti or at least a 1080. But I`m already looking at other cases for my second build. Lets hope for the best. I really want to love the case.
Yeah it has 3 configs but just because it has water ports doesn't mean its gonna be good in temps. I just want to see some tests with water cooling so I can make a better decision. Dam dude, I`m bummed.
That Horror Show one of the major issues he was talking about was the distance of the GPU from the intake fans and the shroud. I’m not convinced that’s the only issue - but assuming it is then those limitations are not present when watercooling (there is no distance between the front intake and the front rad, not any airflow restriction from the shroud, right?).
I personally think this is much more of a visual case than just a performance case, so I would expect to have worse performance for better looks at least to some degree.
mine is shipping next week for an x399 build as well
Great choice for a Threadripper build.
I see some people saying they want a matx version of this and I don't get it since some reviews says it supports e atx, atx ,matx and itx motherboards. Sorry I've always been a laptop user but planning to get this case please pardon me if my question sounds weird.
Got this case Evolve X! Nice case but mine came without a filter for the psu and one screwthread was realy bad for the PSU bracket, gues they use weak soft metall, so the psu i kinda lose :(
Your link leads to the old version
Please review the cougar panzer Evo RGB.
I have a question. I am interested in Evolve X, but in the specs stays USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C.
I would like to buy the motherboard Gigabyte Z490 Aorus Pro Ax. In the specs stays USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C.
If I connect this motherboard in Evolve X, can I use Type-C?
Look forward to your response. Greetz
This is deffinitely the case that I will get for my high end workstation. But I still havent decided wich cpu is best for content creation.
Jose Nicolas Ocampos Tiretta ryzen for content, intel for pure gaming performance
chicken mcthuggets but I use adobe apps
Where can we buy it ?
Fully agree with the cable panels for both the motherboard and the GPU. Overkill, adds bulk and a bit cheap/tacky looking compare to the reset of the case. Solving a problem (grommets) that did not exist to begin with.
Waiting for this case in a mATX version!!!!
Totally, I'd love an mATX version.
Do the rgb strips support rgb fusion by gigabyte?
PCCaseGear is awesome!!
Does anyone know if there is/or will be a glas(tempered?) front panel option any time? Idc about the connector for the led thing to be seen, I just want the fans from the front to be seen :p
Thanks!:D
Damn, Ali, just ask Phanteks to make a new evolv itx, with that perfect front panel design, without separated PSU layer as they did in first version and with perforated side panels ofc, please please please!
Any advice for what I should get? I'm saving up my money over 2 years to get a £2k pc. I'm gonna make it myself so that shreds off labour costs. I want to game(Fortnite, Rainbow Six Siege etc.) and stream. Thanks
Specatron
AMD or intel
Hold for now price are huge
I7 8700k up to 200 dollar motherboard gtx 1080 4tb hardrive 512 m.2 ssd and a case with some fans
@Demon Orb shintel fanboy shut up
Damn this case looks great. I have the nzxt h700i and would consider swapping to this. Think thats worth it?
H700i has better airflow but less storage options.
Evolv X is superior for watercooling, and looks better in my opinion.
@@optimumtech i agree it also looks better. I plan on using alot of rads so the 420 front and 280 top would be great. Any idea if the fan hub works well with nzxt cam?
Nice, you'll love it then.
Not sure regarding CAM, but it should be fine.
It'll likely show up as a single fan, since the entire hub is controlled by a single 4-pin header and powered by SATA.
Still not sold on the storm trooper looking front panel
10:42 no IO shield?
360 AIO on the CPU and another 240 or (360 with mod) on the GPU. Job Done!
Is a normal psu and a hdplex 400w for the second system better than the new dual system psu from phanteks?
Maybe. But I know Phanteks has said their own power splitter will work. www.phanteks.com/PH-PWSPR.html
which enermax aio is that
Does this case support e-atx? Im sorry im new to building computers
nice case
Is the rgb compatible with a asrock motherboard?
I'll take h500 from nzxt, first because of its thermals(not too bad and in some cases actually better than evolv x) , second for it's clean and minimal look and finally - small size!
It's gonna be an I9 9900k + kraken x62 + 1080 or 2070... Let me know what you think!
BTW.. You were the first person that have reviewed nzxt h500... It's very good looking and minimalistic case. And one more thanks for putting cases close to each other so we can compare them! (h500 s340 elite and meshify)
Great choice, I consider the H500 is pretty much ideal for most ATX builds out there and looks great too.
Which motherboard did you used?
Fractal design meshify c is the better case for me because of airflow but not gonna lie that phanteks evolv x is really beautiful
WHAT IS THE PCI EXPRESS VERTICAL GPU CABLE??
I thought this was a full tower 😓 disappointed. How big is it compared to a full tower?
