** PHANTEKS EVOLV ATX GLASS - MAKING A GREAT CASE EVEN BETTER **

[cHk4]

Would this case be overkill if I'm not planning on watercooling? Also would Asus Rampage IV Formula Intel X79 (Socket 2011) DDR3 Motherboard fit in this?

I'm putting my 360 predator and GPU loop in the case. I'll be documenting in a mini build log (got a few custom parts coming for it). It is going to do the predator more justice than the enthoo luxe.

Not at all. I only have a 240mm AIO in the top, and with the LED strips I added and the braided cables I'm about to add it will look glorious. Fully intend to move to a custom loop within a year though

Cool mate I guess that answers my question as to what closed loop water cooling you would recommend haha

Chug - Is there any chance of an option of how the case is orientated i.e. motherboard to be mounted on the left or right side?

 

[ChugNorris]

Just a standard fitting on these cases magicoi, I will see if Phanteks have any plans for an inverted option though.

Looking at this case and considering AIO options has made me settle on a 240 for an AIO. If I get the EK Predator 360 - it just doesn't look that nice with a GPU added to the loop.

 

[cHk4]

So going slightly off topic what AIO would be good for this? haha

Thanks, to clarify -If I could place the case on the left side of my desk against the wall with the window facing right & showing the front of the mobo id buy one like a shot!

Cheers

I am eyeing up these two:

Antec H1200 Kuhler 240mm

EK Predator 240

Both seem to rate highly especially the EK but at £100 more I damn well hope so.

Cool thanks for that mate

Anyone an idea if the Swiftech H240 X2 will fit in the roof?

 

[Petelock]

Hi Chug,

Is the ETA still looking to be 12 May?

Just trying to arrange suitable time off work to complete the build.

Cheers

 

[ChugNorris]

I'm hoping 12th is the latest day it will come in Petelock. I'm away as of tomorrow but I'll keep an eye on my emails and update here once the day is confirmed.

 

[cHk4]

Just for clarity before I order would this mobo fit in it ok?

Asus Rampage IV Formula Intel X79 (Socket 2011) DDR3 Motherboard

Thanks

Should do!

 

[jwilliamson47]

Should do!

Cheers, just need to decide between the silver and gunmetal

Unless it's an obscure size, shouldn't be an issue.
