PHANTEKS EX5 Midi Tower, ATX - Black
INTRO DEAL: Introductory price valid until September 30, 2026, at 23:59 CEST.
With the Phanteks EX5, you build your gaming PC differently than in a traditional case. The motherboard, graphics card and power supply are housed in separate chambers. This ensures that each key component receives targeted fresh air. At the same time, your build remains tidy and requires only a few case fans.
- Separate hardware chambers: Motherboard, graphics card and power supply sit in their own compartments
- Direct cooling: The case requires only four 120 mm fans for the intended cooling concept
- Space for large graphics cards: Supports 3.5-slot GPUs up to 358 mm in length
- For AiO water cooling: Side mount for a 360 mm radiator
- Flexible motherboard choice: Suitable for Mini-ITX, Micro-ATX and ATX motherboards
Phanteks EX5: PC case with separate hardware chambers
In the Phanteks EX5, the most important components do not share the same interior space. The motherboard, graphics card and power supply each have their own chambers. The main area houses the motherboard, CPU, memory and M.2 SSDs. The graphics card is located in a separate unit. Below, Phanteks places the power supply along with a 2.5-inch and a 3.5-inch drive.
Targeted cooling with only four case fans
The cooling concept relies on direct airflow instead of many case fans. A 120 mm fan behind the motherboard draws air to the rear of the board. From there, it flows past the CPU, voltage regulation and memory. For CPU cooling, there is also space beside the motherboard for a 360 mm AiO radiator with three 120 mm fans.
The graphics card and power supply also receive fresh air directly through their chambers. Air-permeable mesh panels support the existing coolers of the components. This reduces the mixing of warm exhaust air from different parts.
Space for large graphics cards
The separate GPU compartment accommodates graphics cards up to 3.5 slots and 358 mm in length. Two brackets secure the graphics card and prevent sagging. Aluminium and tempered glass surround the GPU chamber and protect the installed hardware.Tidy gaming PC with ARGB lighting
- Cables and AiO tubes can be routed out of sight
- Additional space for cables behind the motherboard
- Power supply chamber houses excess cables
- Two ARGB light strips integrated into the case
The layout helps you keep visible cables and tubes out of sight. The tubes of an AiO can be routed over the top area to the radiator and hidden behind the designated covers. Two integrated ARGB strips add colourful accents. RGB lighting on your graphics card remains visible through the tempered glass.
Space for ATX power supply and drives
In the lower chamber sits an ATX power supply up to 210 mm in length. There is also room for a 2.5-inch SSD and a 3.5-inch hard drive. This visually separates the power supply and drives from the main area and creates additional space for excess cables.
