PHANTEKS EVOLV X & P600S

Loving the case, very nice to build in but just wish there was a panel over the full back rather than the cut out- looks like I will have come up with a suitable solution soon

One of my plastic side panel holder things was broken when i received the case, but because i took over a month before building in it i didnt realise, overclockers said since its been over 30 days they wont help. Would phanteks be able to give me one as a spare part? picture below

Let me know how you get on with this please, I broke one on mine recently and would like to get a replacement as well as a couple of the rubber bungs on the inside doors that have disappeared.

With a front rad I had to use the middle bay for the drives and couldn’t get a drain port in when I tried. I left a little slack on the tubes so I can pull my pump/res out of the case to drain from there.

Interesting, was this with a 420 on the front?

Would this fit a Corsair AX1500i psu in the bottom?

Yes, 420 is on the front. The in/out tubes (flexi ones) had to go at the top as they were kinking when routing from the bottom.

Seen this on phanteks facebook, assuming this will be official announcement of the P600S. About time, its only been a year

Thnking of going with a top and front rad setup. Do you think dual EK PE 360 would fit (38mm thick) or would it be more sensible for the front rad to be 30mm or less?

I'm using EK CE 420 at the front and EK CE 280 top and even with the fans it looks fine. These are 45mm thick if i remember. To give a an idea of thickness, the top one (with fan) just overlaps the rear fan by 4-5mm.

That’s what I use and they work fine

Glanza · 16 Dec 2018 at 14:29

I've got a 60mm thick at the front and a 30mm at the top both 360mm and it fits fine.

Here's my Evolv X, 9900K + 2080ti

EK CE420 with 3x EK-Furious Vardar EVO 140,
Black Ice Nemesis GTS 280mm with 2x Fractal Design Dynamic X2 GP-14 140mm
Bitspower 150mm reservoir, z-cap 3 port, D5 Mod top.

Halo's, addressable 140mm Digital RGB versions. Two active Asus Aura outputs with 200 odd LEDs. Fans and CPU block in series. And the Evolv X case LED's and internal strips + GPU in series/parallel. I custom made the CPU/GPU LEDS to be really bright. They're all powered direct from the PSU.

Fill port into res.

Ball valve to front drain port.

Would you mind posting a couple of pictures of your build? I'd like to see how (non-)cramped it ends up being.

Thanks! (And thanks to all who replied! C: )

I will once I’ve done a rebuild due to waiting on a replacement RTX2080ti card later in the week

Dumphole · 18 Dec 2018 at 10:31

Here’s the final incarnation of my build.

Nice one! I'm jealous

fantasticCG · 18 Dec 2018 at 21:36

Beautiful builds gentlemen.

Can’t remember If I’ve asked this but what 360mm rads fit size wise?
I’m looking at the bitspower leviathan sf360 radiator

Glanza · 19 Dec 2018 at 18:25

Finally got round to moving my bits over, got it all done now including the new parts such as the R220, sadly the supplied fan hub seems to be faulty as it wasn't controlling my new fans at all or giving the wrong readings, put my older Phanteks fan hub back in for the time being waiting for them to hopefully send me a replacement.

I'll be going hardline in new year, wanted to get everything in before Xmas so I can see how it goes:

That was when I was leak testing earlier, now I've got it home settled on a light blue with purple running through the case RGB, not got it wired to my motherboard as it's the 3pin rgb header and my mobo only has the 4 pin ones.

fantasticCG · 21 Dec 2018 at 13:28

What are people’s combine rad and fan height?

I have the case so just trying plan it out now.

As I’m thinking ek pe 360mm Rads and the EK Vardar fans coming in at a height of 65mm

I’m wanting to bolt the res to the front radiator, worrying about room?
