No 140 fan mounts (trying to move away from 120s for next build)
Only 1 radiator mount, so not exactly friendly to custom loops that run more than 1 radiator.
Seems like it has the potential to be a bit of a hot box like previous Evolv cases
I've been waiting for this case and I'm glad it's finally here. I ordered mine and I can't wait to build in it. I have some ideas and while it's not intended for a full custom loop, I'm going to do it anyways and make it look good.
EDIT: But how it all secures itself to the case i have no idea. A bracket that locks in or something would be a lot better
OR. just go the external route with a MORA system
Just looking at this manual, there could only be enough space for a 120 radiator.
That 2080 Hydro Copper is a massive card and wouldn't fit when placed horizontally so I used a Phanteks rise for it.
Edit: Looking at this case on Phanteks website, it becomes obvious that one can only use 120 mm rad in the bottom because of the PSU. I'll be sticking with my Evolve X for a long time.That design is turning out to be very limiting with respect to custom water cooling
I do prefer the prototype, that thing was schmexeh.
D30s are pretty nice too. Id hit em both.
My kid has been bugging me for my Torrent ha.. hmm.
