So you want a atx or mATX case? I'm using the mATX version and it's tight to get it all in and look neat.
I going to assume you don't require 5.25" bays?
Fractal Define S midi is of a very similar design to the evolv in that it has no 5.25" bays and is designed with watercooling in mind. (lots of options for rad and res mounting) The only major difference is that the define S doesn't have the midplate that the evolv does, however it is significantly cheaper. (£60)
As a mid way point between the two price points (evolv vs. define S) the Corsair 540 "cube" is a highly recommended watercooling case that will only cost you about £110-120. The great thing about this case is the amount of space you have behind the mboard tray if you want to hide parts of the loop there. It can allow for much cleaner looking soft tubing routes
Overall I suppose it depends whether you want a case that looks the bomb or whether it has the greatest functionality.
