phanteks evolv x

Hi all I have always loved phanteks evolv and have this currently, I am about to build a new PC and quite fancy phanteks evolv x, this is a few years old now though, is this still a good option ?

I have found it hard to replace the Evolv, only doing so now due to airflow really.

I did order the P600S but sent it back.

I have just pre-ordered the Dynamic O11D Evo to replace it.

011D is lovely, but to big for the area I have for the PC.

Did you have the evolv x ? Or standard ?

Standard TG one. Evolv X is meant to be better but not convinced it's woth the premium & fancied a change.

Yeah I have the standard, and wondering if it's worth just reusing. I will look around, maybe the x will come up at the right price. Not going to be building until March

Had mine scince it came out and I love it.

Two black ice xflow 280mm rads for less tube mess, this was when I was leak testing and have my 3080 on the vertical riser.
No longer got the board and res as I'm building a alder lake system.

Its a good case, there are better cases for airflow for less money. Phanteks should resolve that by releasing an 'air' edition with a mesh front panel which they have done for their cheaper cases.

Nice. Are you adding the alder lake system to this case ?
