Hi guys. At the moment, I'm completely torn between the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX Glass (either black or silver), and the Inwin 805 (black).
I'm worried that the Inwin is a bit toooo poor in terms of airflow. However, it has 8 PCI slots, allowing me to purchase Cooler Master's Vertical GPU bracket (which would also choke the PSU out a bit as it can't be flipped to vent from the bottom as there is no bottom intake for the PSU (crazy Inwin..) but I'll still have the top slot for an Elgato HD Pro.
& the only 2 thing putting me off the Phanteks is the lack of an 8th slot (I'd really love to show off my GTX 1080, rather than just see a backplate...)
I've looked into modding the case but the back of the case, beside the PCI slots, are like honeycomb, so I don't feel confident that a mod such as http://www.mountainmods.com/pci-modular-...p-754.html would be supported enough as the mounting point isn't solid.
Also, I hate the huuge space between the Motherboard and the front intakes. I hate the holes in the panel that is there. I hate how many times it repeats 'Phanteks' over and over.
GAH. I know it's a petty aesthetics>functionality scenario I have, but I'm looking to you guys to give me a definitive reason to choose either of the 2 cases, or, suggest a different case (ideally tempered glass window, has to fit ATX due to AM4 mATX boards looking like poo)
Here is what the build is looking like.
(Black, silver and white theme)
