EX5
Defined by form, driven by flow and divided for precision
Phanteks introduces the EX5; the new chassis is designed with a compartmentalized structure. This layout organizes key components into dedicated chambers, ensuring each receives a direct flow of fresh air.
The EX5 moves away from the traditional boxy, ‘fish tank’ look and presents a bold, creative way to showcase a PC build. The unique layout optimizes cooling efficiency by directing fresh air precisely where it’s needed and expelling heat more effectively. This effective airflow design reduces reliance on excessive fan setups, allowing builders to achieve excellent thermals with fewer fans.

FAQ
Most products have their product manual in the accessory box or directly printed on the packaging if the installation only contains a few steps. For the latest version, we always recommend checking the online manual, which can be found under the support section of the product page.
Because there are many different GPU sizes, it is always recommended to check the GPU clearance beforehand. If the length of the GPU fits within the clearance numbers, the GPU should fit neatly. This information can be found within the ‘Specifications’ section on the product page.
