My Take on the Phanteks Evolv X

[@GregSalazar]

I know I ignored the pricing aspect of this review. It wasn't deliberate, but it speaks to my underlying thoughts: the price of this case is "meh." I don't think it's outrageously expensive considering what you're getting, but it isn't a "bargain" by any definition of the word. Obviously, you wouldn't wanna use this case in a build with a strict budget. What do you think?

[@Gradymeister]

The RGB on the front of the case looks so meh to me. Everything else looks fine, but for 200 dollars? Maybe 150..

[@GrumpyFelo]

200 is meh price? Talk about ego

[@NamelessONEMail]

GrumpyFelo When you use this case as it was intended to be used (500-1000$ custom watercooling loops and obviously fairly expensive hardware like 1080Ti ... etc) then 200$ for a case with this kind of exterior build quality and the almost perfectly designed interior is actually very cheap. If you're planning on getting a 1060 and a budget build overall then don't buy this case. It was not meant for you. Get your head out of your ass. I was actually amazed this was just 200$ ... I was expecting 250-300$ when I saw this case presented for the first time. You wouldn't complain about a ferrari or lamborghini being too expensive, would you now ? And this is nowhere near that same price difference between a normal affordable car and a ferrari ...

[@GregSalazar]

[@christopherwong5946]

@science studio any opinions on best air cooled case? I was thinking Fractal meshify C or Lan Li 011 air?

[@bloodduality]

Thank you for the thermal results, and lessening a fear I had. Already planning my first custom loop for this case within the next 2 or 3 months.

[@kyleingram6330]

Awesome video man. I've been very concerned about GPU temperatures with this case based on a few other reviews on it. Your video on this case best represents how I especially would want to use this case. Thanks for adding fans and using an AIO in your review. I think that is also very much more representative of how others would use it as well. I feel a lot more confident about this case in terms of performance now. Thanks again Greg, great video man.

[@GregSalazar]

Thanks for watching, Kyle!

[@jadonharper1493]

I was going to buy the case no matter what temps I got.

[@BranZHamZ]

Accurate post-build messy room haha

[@joeywilliams604]

Just finished my build in this beast. It is a dream. Coming from a 570x mirror black I can say this is the best case ever. Tons of room. Really is a breeze to build in. Rgb lights are nice and subtle. I saw this at that show you went to (computex?), and was floored. With all fan spaces populated (360mm aio in front and 120mm fans elsewhere) it really is as cool as the 570x if not better. Only thing I can say bad is the noise compared to the 570x. At 100% fan speed I can hear them more than what could in the 570x. Mabey cause the glass is more sound dampening at the top? Really a top notch case though.

[@pureblackfire511]

the more spaced out front panel on the Evolv X makes the front fans more audible outside the case unfortunately. imo Phanteks should lower the price and just include one rear and one top exhaust fan. I think out of box temps would be better and noise would be lower. the front fans are too far away from the gpu they may as well not include them.

[@joeywilliams604]

I agree with you, the price is not too friendly. I don't really hear it unless I run 100% fan speed. My gpu stays awesomely cool though. I just got done playing the New tomb raider for about 1 1/2 hours and my GPU didn't get above 62C with a 40% fan curve on a gaming X trio. Can't hear the system over the game volume at all. Take what I say with a grain of salt though. I'm new to the PC scene and just amazed.

[@BobRossThaLegend]

@@joeywilliams604 I was looking at the 570x Mirror Black AND this case and cant make up my mind on which one to get. I was scared by the supposed temps this case was getting too

[@joeywilliams604]

I have a small video up showing the setup, not a shameless plug or anything. Just so you can see, but I'm not experiencing high temps at all. Mabey I'm doing something different. Unsure. The 570x was good temps too. My room temp is usually 73 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit. What's that like 22 to 24 Celsius?

[@thathorrorshow4126]

I have the 570x with a 1080Ti and Gpu is at 55 degrees only. When I game I crank the fans to 60 percent with 1440p settings and goes up to the high 60 degrees. 570x is a good case but the cable management is a nightmare. Good case I like it a lot. I do see people complaining about the Evolve X though but I would like to see a water loop review. You still need fresh air coming in to cool the radiators, so I dont know.

[@gpraceman]

I got this case and love it. Looks great. Quality materials. Easy to build in. Tasteful RGB without going overboard. So much nicer than my last case. I do wish it was a bit cheaper though.

[@somebody6433]

[@lubo25]

@@idroppedmypocket that splitter is pretty ghetto. If you check their Amazon page you'll see two major things of note. i they are "currently unavailable" and ii half the reviews say they smoked the splitter within a few weeks of using it. Whether i is related to ii? No idea.

[@boatrat]

Why would you not just get a secondary little SFX size PSU, put it in the bottom under the main PSU-shroud "basement" section, in place of one of the removable HDD bays. Only limitation, is you need a main motherboard power cable way longer than normal for an M-ITX build.

[@Raums]

30 years of building custom PCs and this is simply the best case I've used. My only gripe with the case is how hard it's been to get hold of one in silver in the EU.

[@mark_delight]

Just finished my new build in this case, and I love it. And, have not seen the high gpu temps that other reviews have commented on (at least yet). It's the most elegant case I've seen in a long time. And, I'm using the 1000w version of the RevoltX Phanteks power supply that I also got, when I purchased the dual build kit at preorder.

[@pepe141y]

Just ordered mine a day ago. Thanks for the quick review. Can't wait to see what you build with it. 👍

[@lucaguerrieri3496]

I actually bought this case, my only complain is their cable management on the fan hub and front fans. The power cable to power the fan hub was so well hidden behind all the stock cables that i took me around 30 minutes to figure it out I was powering the wrong one and that was the reason that fans were not working. A bit of panic mode was not helping tbh. Beside that I keep a stable 60° on heavy load on cpu and a 70ish on the 1080ti, the build is quiet enough and overall good looking, cable management was easy, there is plenty of room to keep it clean, the rgbs are addressable by the mobo so the shiny lights that keeps gamers happy are on point. Filters works well (I have a cat that likes to sit on top of pc and in front of it, in 3 days the amount of hair was actually massive). I would recommend it based on a 15days test BUT is also the first high end case that I build in, so no real point of comparison. It sure is a lot better than a 70-80€ case.

[@oldskoolhead0]

couple of things to mention about this case, 1) the (painted in) motherboard stand offs take the smaller screws (that there is most of in the box) where all my other cases take the bigger ones similar to the power supply mounting screws and 2) getting back to the painted in motherboard standoffs, make sure you have a correct fitting spanner or sockets, as so much as touch the crappy paint job on the motherboard tray with a pair of needle nose plyers and you will reveal the nice shiny metal underneath, fine if you plan to put a full atx board in but not so great if you (like me) have an m-atx board, just glad i plan to upgrade it to full atx one asap.

[@render5098]

The 2 front fans are actually not good for the case at all, they are airflow fans, that's why the mesh/panel combo drowns them. I saw similar CPU/GPU drops to your mesh off test by replacing with Chromax NFA-14's that handle SP better.

[@literate-aside]

I'm OCD level tidy when I build. Makes life so much easier if everything has a place, and everything is planned. Really enjoyed the review, thanks. I'm super hyped for my next full water build, wish I could build in this, but the Meshify C is my next case, as it fits in my desk cupboard perfectly.

Best case I've ever built in and owned. CPU and GPU temps are 53C with a Ryzen 5 5600X and a 240mm AIO cooler and a RX 7700XT GPU. Asthmatics are understated elegance and everything about it has a premium feel. Get one, you won't be disappointed 😊

Nice review and really nice case. Considering what it has to offer the price doesn't seem outrageous at all. I love the fact you have space for two systems in a "mid tower" case. That's impressive to me.

[@jayh0086]

As an owner of an Enthoo Evolv Tempered Glass, i can confidently say that the Temperature delta from the panel on and off can easily hit 5 to 10 degrees celsius. Running an 8700k of course contributes a lot. Every time i game I OC my gpu and remove the panel entirely, its a pain in the ass but i have been looking into some water jet cutting companies to cut a design into it. JUst gotta think of something that will look good!

[@musmuk5350]

This case is all i was dreaming of. I was previously using an Enthoo Mini XL for its dual system features but this one seems so much better in terms of integration, air flow and aesthetics!

Finallly bought a evolve this past Xmas. Wish I had waited but I still love the one I got

[@Kottesque]

I bought two (one silver, one anthracite) for two new builds I'm about to undertake, and my only critique would be that the Phanteks Vertical GPU Kit, which I also purchased to allow me to move the card away from the window, isn't as compatible as one might think...I may have to cut out the existing rear PCI-e bracket slots to fit it...I have yet to receive it, but am almost certain this is what I will have to do, unless the GPU sits at a comfortable position away from the glass side panel (which I doubt it will). The case does NOT come with the riser cable, only the mounting base so I purchased the kit to allow me to have a few options, e.g. using the already installed vertical slots, using the new bracket, or horizontal mounting...I have yet to decide.

Gorgeous case, a little unnecessarily big for my needs but I will consider this carefully for my next build. It really looks the goods. Such a damn shame no optical drive as I heavily use that for video production. The size of the thing it could have easily fitted in, dunno what Phanteks was thinking. I'll have to get an exxy external one if I buy this case. Love the cutout to show off the PSU. Many other makers can learn from that - very thoughtful. Thanks for a very professional video SciStudio!

Looks like an almost perfect case. The only thing I'm not really a fan of is the huge cutout at the top-rear for an ITX system. I mean, it's great if you're going for a dual system build, but if you aren't then you're just left with a massive hole. Would have been nice to see some kind of removable panel to cover it up when not in use.

Can I say I have 5 SSD's. It isn't a case (haha me make pun!) of being a hoarder, it is about cost. Most of mine are 250GB with one being a 500GB. I have that many as when I ran low on space for my games I brought a new one (this is over many years as well). I can't afford to buy a massive drive hence why I have multiple small ones. Not to mention the drives work fine, I don't want to get rid of one just because it has run out of space.

[@dangdiggity9916]

ive got the original one, and that got the lil indent thingy on the front, havent seen any original evolve without it? i know there are 3 or 4 different versions at least tho (with tempered glass/acrylic and then both with/without hinges) :p might be even more regional stuff, dont think any of the version in northern EU had hinged side panels, think all of the evolve X does tho.

[@Wistbacka]

The only bad thing I find with this case, is that it only has 2 usb ports in the front IO (plus the usbc) making it impossible to have both systems connected to the front IO. I am thinking the use would be for limited desk space, and both you akd your partner/room mate share the chassi and both want to hook up their controllers and play e.g. rocket league together. Or something similar.

[@boatrat]

Nice. I think we have a winner. That minimal temp difference with the front panel on/off, allays the only remaining worry I had about this one. And everything else seems first-rate. The only "complaint" I've yet even heard from anyone else, is the subjective notion that those back hinged cable-management SSD-tray-door things, seem "gimmicky" or cheap. Well... they perform the function as advertised... And if you don't like them, I guess you could just take them out? I honestly don't really understand how there's a down-side. The only real idea for "improvement" I can come up with, is purely a cosmetic embellishment: Maybe if I got ambitious and fabbed an additional piece of aluminum (or Stainless? Hmm...) to go inside as a full height standoff cover-plate, to go over the top of where those internal sliding plastic cable-cover things are.

Nice review, Decided on this one after my Cooler Master Cosmos C700M Came with a broken Curved Tempered Glass Door :o/ Then I saw the Corsair 500D So I ordered that one Since it had two Tempered Glass Swing out doors which is what I wanted. Then I saw the Evolv X and Realized that was a better option since i wanted to install at least 4 10TB HDD Drives and Realized this was a better case then the Corsair 500D. So I canceled the order on the Corsair 500D on Amazon "Within an hour" Wooossshhhh, Thank god I canceled it on time ;o) Now I waiting for this beautiful Evolv X case as it has everything I wanted. RGB was an Extra Feature from the Corsair Model which had none. the RGB is a much more Sleek and Mature RGB then most out there, that have these huge RGB 200mm Fans Glowing Rainbow colors on the front of the case, which is why I wasn't attracted to so many RGB Cases that look like they were made more for happy toddlers. Coming for a Cosmos 1000 "Angelic aka Fallen Angel" Case to this, is perfect as I am sure it won't be as big as the Cosmos 1000 just a tad smaller, but with all the space and features I wanted and a few Extras like an addition Build of a Micro Board for just for $240 cheaper then the $440 Cosmos C700M I think I saved myself a pretty penny.

Mmm I’ve really been thinking about getting the Evolv X lately, this is my first PC build and I don’t want to have to make another until 2025 which might sound like a long shot but having this case and the right build would make that happen. I was thinking about going with a i7 8700k, GTX 1080 ti, with a NZXT Kraken X72 for the CPU and a Kraken G12 with a X52 for the GPU. Having a duel AIO for the CPU and GPU plus having this case would make an amazing build. Let me know what I should do Science Studio!

[@julianmeschede5920]

You should go with the 9900k if you want it to be future proof for a long time.

[@WhosTurnIsIt]

If you get the 8700k and the 1080 ti, you'll be fine for a very long time. You don't have to swap out components as much as you think. I have an 7700k with a 1080 and I don't see myself swapping anything out for a long time. I might get a 1080ti later in the future but the 1080 is perfectly fine for what I'm doing and at this point, it'd be more of a waste of money. Also, I have an Evolv case (not this one but the previous generation) and I get decent temps with an AIO on for my CPU (push pull config w/ radiator mounted at the front) and four exhaust fans (1 140mm fan at the rear and 3 120mm fans on the top). When gaming, I usually get 50-60 degrees celsius on my GPU and CPU would sit at 45-50 degrees. I'm pretty sure you'll be okay with just the stock setup for you GPU with this case. Overall, it's a pretty nice case, comes with plenty of screws (all separated in a plastic case and extras) and the fan connection being moved to the top compare to the previous generation will make cable management a lot easier (and better looking).

[@ProGamingTips]

Will To The Iam , Yeah I don’t feel like I need to do anything more then the 8700K and 1080ti, that’s a perfect build for 1440p @ 144hz. Which to be honest I don’t think gaming at 8K will be important 4K at most

I don't feel so bad about my workspace now 😅 Great case- I would like to see something similar to a Thermaltake View case but with cable channels like the NZXT cases to SHOW your cable management handiwork along with exposed PSU for nice full modular units with custom cabling. It's a shame hiding these cables when you go to all the effort.

I really want to see someone do a dual system build in this

[@saman5986]

I just wish that there was a reset button in the front like the P600S. But not a huge big deal I guess!

Temperature comparison of the built in vertical GPU mount VS the cooler master mount?? I use the built in mount of the fractal R6 and have never had a temperature issue. I would be curious to see the difference. Thanks Greg!!

Evolv X or PC o11? I want vertical GPU and will be using cooler master's bracket. Gonna be using 360mm rad.

Hey! A suggestion on types of videos; would you do a video on your favorite/top case every few months? Recommendations work too. Great videos btw

[@DocRealTalk]

I'm really considering getting this for my new build but for some reason the Eclipse 719 full tower costs less than this. Do you know how they compare?

[@FranktheTank319]

Just when I thought I was done with my PC was done being messed with for a while, I just had to find this case. I guess I'm gonna have to do another teardown and get my system in one of these

[@hammybunghole4275]

That case will be in my next build

[@Pgherardi]

Which gpu mount did you use? I just bought this case and wanted to vertical. Mount the gpu but like yours in the back. Do you think it's good for a rtx 2080 ?

[@KetchyKech]

id like to know this as well

[@nullwii]

he says in the video but doesn't list it It's a Cooler Master VERTICAL GRAPHICS CARD HOLDER KIT WITH RISER CABLE its also $90 so.... no thanks I have also had issues with riser cables causing weird performance issues / graphics problems

[@Mike220111]

I'm looking towards buying a new case and two options are EvolveX and the PC-011 from Lian Li, but I'm more Interested of the PC-011 because like the side of the case like the right of the motherboard, you can mount fans or a 360 rad.

Anyone know why the galaxy silver version of this costs so much more? I see prices as high as $470 for it, but are these just jacked up prices and it can really be obtained much more cheaply?
