Azure V2 - Cyan, Steel, White, and Black Evolv Shift X
This is the second version of my Phanteks Evolv Shift X build.
My main goals here over V1 were:
Clean up the hardline water cooling by removing the circular pump res combo and replace with a EK 140mm flat pump res combo.
Move to a dual 140mm thicker raid in the front of the case and use a negative pressure system to keep the interior of the case much cooler.
Clean up visible cables while utilizing the phanteks Neon LED strips to give much more light to the build overall
This is my second attempt at a hardline cooled computer and I am finally extremely happy with how it came out. I ended up utilizing a Parallel CPU / GPU loop in order to really clean up the runs which turned out perfectly.
Even when pushing the computer it stays very cool inside using the negative pressure system. I had pretty severe issues of the interior of the case being very hot when It was previously a positive pressure setup. Removing the black plastic dust filters from the front of the Shift X allows the Dual Noctua NF-A14's to move plenty of air from the top and bottom of the case out the front.
