Out of Sight Cooling
With its unique layout, the Phanteks Evolv X2 features an innovative vertical cooling design, where cool air is drawn in through the base and exhausted out the top. To do this, the Evolv X2 utilises three 120mm fans at the base of the case, perfect for intake. What’s more, the Phanteks Evolv X2 can be sat on any surface, including thick carpet, as the main structure of the case is raised up several centimetres by four feet, which are attached to a solid base plate.
Three more 120mm fans can be housed at the top of the case, with an additional mount also available on the rear panel which facilitates a 120mm fan. These fans will help to draw air up through the case to cool your components, then exhaust the warm air out the top. Additionally, the Phanteks Evolv X2 top panel conceals a dedicated chamber for housing a 360mm radiator.
Furthermore, the Phanteks Evolv X2 has a unique way of mounting cooling hardware, to further enhance aesthetics. Each fan mounting point is recessed into the chassis, as such they will sit perfectly flush with the surrounding panels. By mounting fans inside their own enclosures, there is less room for air to escape, ensuring more air will be channelled up through the case to maximise cooling performance.

An added benefit of moving your cooling hardware to this compartment, is that the Evolv X2 offers better compatibility between your motherboard and AIO.
