Hey everyone. I plan on completing a build late summer featuring either Ryzen or coffee Lake depending on how good it looks. The case that I was looking at was the enthoo evolv tg, but I've seen posts complaining about lackluster airflow which has worried me. I plan to overclock with an aio but i want to make sure that my overclocking capability is not bottle necked by hotter than usual components.Are there any similar cases that have better airflow that could be recommended or is the case fine in terms of airflow? It needs to have a nice window and easy cable management.
Any help is appreciated.

I've been looking at a LOT of cases, but mostly to install a simple custom loop in it but that I can install AIO coolers to start. I think I've settled on the Thermaltake V71. Has vents on the bottom for two 120mm fans, in the front for 3x1200 fans, on the top for 3x120mm fans and the back (maybe 140mm fans too but I'm not getting those). Airflow normally front to top/back and bottom to top/back. You still have places to mount a SSD and a HHD without a cage and out of the air flow. I am going to do a 360 on the front pulling air in to exhaust out the top.

I an not going to get the one with the PSU cover as I'm likely to get a hybrid 1080ti and want to mount that cooler on the bottom sucking air in so all the hot air still goes out the top/back.

Good luck! Lots of choices out there!

I just built a system in this case (though not the TG version just the regulation Enthoo ATX). I worried about temps too but I did a pull set up in the top with a 280mm Corsair AIO but I replaced the stock fans on the radiator with Noctua 2000 rpm industrial fans. I kept the other case fans as is. The system at idle about 28 or 29 C and under load with Witcher 3,about 58 to 60 C. The system is dead quiet. I did not overclock the i5 processor yet.
