hi just just a quick one that im not fully sure of:)


would this Psu:

http://www.evga.com/products/Product.aspx?pn=220-GS-0550-V1




Fit into this case? :

http://www.coolermaster.com/service/support/model/RC-830/




It says "Power Supply Type Standard ATX PS2 / EPS 12V (optional)" <---- just didnt fully know what that meant!:)










Are all cases of this quality (£100 range) pretty much the same? like it has 3 fan slots 1 In 1 Out and 1 on the top



I never will overclock, so with decent fans and the Gpu/Cpu/Psu built in fans is this case pretty okay?:) thanks guys!

Of course. Unless you are dealing with a SFF case or something similar; or else massive server PSUs, ATX size is a standard allowing nearly every consumer PSU to fit in nearly every consumer ATX-size case.

Ah easy i get it now thanks:)





are all modern £100+ cases created pretty equally nowadays then with a good enough layout/ventilation? it has a back front and top fan slot so as long as i buy recent fans i dont have to worry about anything else to do with buyng a case? (cosmetic outer appearance doesnt bother me hehe)



thats my last question thanks:)

Cases can differ ENORMOUSLY in airflow, but these are usually due to design flaws, and, if you buy a nice case, it shouldn't happen. They still have some variance as to your intended cooling. Gaming cases have good airflow but are noisy and usually look off with all their mesh, silent cases are pretty much the exact opposite. WC cases look really nice, are usually well designed, and, if rigged properly (AIO or custom), utilize the same airflow and noise of a silent case (but have greater benefits). Don't ever buy a case covered in mesh, it looks like it'll get better airflow but it is a dust/noise/moneyskate nightmare. Corsair, NZXT, and Fractal Design only for that price range. Some cases are inverted, but that is more of a personal preference and there are some heated toughts about which is better, but I would stay away from them, as they go against the natural heat gradient.

Frankly no, they are not all the same.... and Phanteks has come home with the Best Case Award from Coumputex, 3 years in a row.... and I really don't see anyone competing with them at this point in time.

Case of the Year 2013 - Enthoo Primo
Case of the Year 2014 - Enthoo Pro
Case of the Year 2015 - Enthoo Evolv

Phanteks Enthoo Pro M ATX Mid Tower is £50.54
Phanteks Enthoo Pro ATX Full Tower is £74.59
Phanteks Enthoo Luxe ATX Full Tower is £112.99

There's 3 versions of the Evolv

Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ITX Mini ITX Tower is £50.95
Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV MicroATX Mini Tower is £87.49
Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ATX Mid Tower is £131.88

Where they really excel is in the amount of larger (140mm) case fans .... more fans at lower rpm is very quiet. The Luxe is basically the Pro with 2 extra $20 fans, an 'attic" for fans or radiators and a built in LED control system with external LEDs and plug in capability for internal lighting. Bith have a fan control PCB which gives you PWM control of up to 11 3-pin fans.

We used to offer a range of cases in our builds and, we will use any case a customer wants, but the "usual suspects" we recommend include, Corsair 500R, NZXT H440, Fractal R5 ... but in last few years, the Pro or Luxe have dominated what users have selected. One of our upcoming builds will involve a siver Evolv with the MSI Z170 XPower Titanium which will be our 1st silver themed build and our 1st time w/ the Evolv.
