I finally got round to posting my Evolv X build although in its finished state. I posted all the details on builds.gg so here is a link.
https://builds.gg/builds/homage-to-asus-corsair-and-phanteks-10997
The build is a homage to Asus, Corsair, Phanteks and of course GamersNexus whose content inspired me to put this rig together. Built in the Silver Phanteks Evolx X is an overclocked Ryzen 7 2700X at 4.2GHz all cores paired with an Asus ROG X470-F motherboard and cooled by an Asus Ryujin 360 AIO along with 16GB kit of 8-Pack Edition TeamGroup Dark Pro 3600MHz CL16 memory downclocked to 3200MHz CL14 at 1.45V.
There are a total of six Noctua NF-F12 iPPC 2000 PWM fans and a single Noctua NF-A14 iPPC 2000 PWM fan. These are configured as three NF-F12 as front intake, three Noctua NF-F12 in a push configuration for the top 360mm radiator, and a single Noctua NF-A14 iPPC for rear exhaust. All fans except the front intake have Phanteks Halos Lux Digital RGB fan frames daisychained through the Evolv X case RGB controller and then through the aRGB connector onto the Asus motherboard. All case fans use the Evolv X fan hub and onto the CHA_FAN header on the motherboard. I find the fans spin at around 800rpm and are whisper quiet at that speed.
I love the look of the Asus Ryujin 360 AIO with its customisable OLED display and also the Asus Thor PSU with its real-time wattage display. The 850w unit fits perfectly in the PSU cut-out but unfortunately the fan orientation meant I had to drill some holes into the PSU shrund to allow some airflow as it was the PSU fan intake is practically flush with the PSU shroud.
I have replaced the PSU cables with a set of CableMod Pro ModMesh cables in Carbon/Red.
The Inno3D iChill GTX1080ti Ultra X3 is an amazing GPU and its 2.5 slot design allows it to be mounted vertically using the Phanteks bracket included with the Phanteks Evolv X though the Phanteks PCI-E riser cable is an optional purchase.
I nearly sold the GPU when the RTX series launched but six-months on I'm glad I kept it as it performs great and can just about drive the 3840x1600 ultrawide monitor at its 75Hz limit.
Much thanks goes out to @ChugNorris for all his help along the way. It's taken nearly six months to get the build to how I wanted it.
