[MeltedTrout4]

The title says it all, I want to know which case is better, Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX or Thermaltake Core X71. I'm getting the parts this weekend and need to know ASAP. Thanks!

Thermaltake Core X71 ...Huge FULL Tower.

Phanteks , very small , depends on your needs.

Not even close ... Evolv ... check out the review ... 1/8th thick aluminum side panels.

But which Evolv (EDIT: Oops, just reread and saw Evolv ATX)

ATX Mid Tower = 19.50" x 9.25" x 20.10" / 22.00 lbs.
MicroATX Tower = 18.00" x 9.05" x 15.70" / 19.80 lbs.
Mini ITX Tower = 14.70" x 9.00" x 15.50"

Interestingly enough the smallest case has the largest GPU clearance at 330mm (all 300mm or better) and cooler clearance at 200m(192 and 194 for other 2)

EDIT: Tho, in this price range, if looking for the best ATX tower, to my eyes that's the Enthoo Luxe... tho the Evolv w/ tempered glass is gorgeous.

Core 71 = 23.00" x 9.10" x 22.00" / 29.10 lbs.
Cooler Clearance is 185mm / VGA 310

In what case (no pun intended) would the Phanteks be better?

It's a lot sturdier , better build quality , X71 Core is a little flimsy.

I want to fit the sapphire tri x 390x and a 240mm aio. Aesthetics matter a lot to me. So which case would be better for me?

I prefer the Phanteks , quality is superior , and looks a lot nicer , you get the best of both worlds.
