Redefine your desk setup with the Phanteks EX5 Plus. Moving away from traditional boxy designs, the EX5 Plus features an innovative compartmentalized chamber layout that directs fresh air precisely where high-performance components need it most.

Built for a clean, "no-tubes" aesthetic, this Plus variant includes a fully integrated 360mm AIO liquid cooler with sleek side-mounted connections, keeping your interior clutter-free and making installation effortless.

Highlights

  • Integrated 360mm AIO Liquid Cooling: Built-in liquid cooler featuring side-mounted, hidden tubing for a ultra-clean, minimalist interior and seamless build process.

  • Compartmentalized Airflow Design: Directs fresh air into dedicated component chambers, achieving superior thermal performance with fewer fans.

  • Dedicated VRM & RAM Cooling: A strategically placed fan behind the motherboard tray actively cools the VRM, RAM, and GPU exhaust away from critical hardware.

  • High-Performance Hardware Support: Comfortably houses large, high-end GPUs (up to 364mm) and includes a built-in adjustable GPU support bracket.

  • Modern ARGB & Nexlinq Control: Integrated ambient ARGB lighting synchronized via your motherboard software or the Nexlinq app.

  • High-Speed Front I/O: Front panel features USB-C (20Gbps), dual USB 3.0 ports, and audio jacks for maximum connectivity.

Compartmentalized Thermal Architecture

    • Isolated Airflow Pathways: Divides internal layout into dedicated zones for the CPU, GPU, PSU, and motherboard, delivering direct fresh air intake.
    • Optimized Chassis Ventilation: Direct intake channels rapidly exhaust warm air to maximize overall airflow efficiency.

FOCUSED AIRFLOW DESIGN

    • Dedicated Rear Mainboard Cooling: Pre-installed S25-120mm fan drives fresh intake air directly across the motherboard surface and surrounding hardware.
    • Targeted Component Ventilation: Directs immediate airflow across the CPU socket, VRMs, memory modules, and M.2 SSDs.
    • Coordinated Airflow Dynamics: Complements GPU intake channels to rapidly exhaust warm air from the chassis.

Integrated Liquid Cooling & Showcase Architecture

    • Pre-installed 360mm AIO: Features a pre-equipped Glacier One 360S25 SE liquid cooler with side-mounted 90-degree hose connections for clean internal routing
    • Tempered Glass Showcase Design: Combines a steel structure with tempered glass elements to isolate thermal chambers while keeping key hardware visible.
    • Unobstructed Component Visibility: Delivers a complete, uninterrupted view of the mainboard, VRM zone, and graphics card

GPU SLOT CLEARANCE

The EX5 lineup supports mainboards that start from PCIe slot 1. These are often entry-level ATX and mATX mainboards. In this configuration, the EX5 lineup supports GPUs up to 4.6 slots thick.
    • Slot 1 Layouts (Entry ATX / mATX): Accommodates heavy-duty graphics cards up to 4.6 slots thick on motherboards with a Slot 1 primary PCIe position.
    • Slot 2 Layouts (Standard ATX): Fits modern GPUs up to 3.6 slots thick across the vast majority of mainstream motherboard designs.
    • Slot 3 Layouts (Specialized / Niche): Supports GPUs up to 2.6 slots thick for mainboards with lower primary PCIe placement.

SERVER-GRADE GPU SUPPORT BRACKET & QUICK-ACCESS FRONT I/O

    • Industrial Anti-Sag Brackets: Server-grade structural support anchors heavy multi-slot graphics cards directly to the steel chassis frame, completely eliminating GPU sag and PCIe slot strain.

    • Reinforced Transport Security: Locks high-end GPUs across multiple rigid contact points to protect sensitive hardware during system relocation.
    • High-Speed Connectivity: Integrated front panel delivers high-bandwidth USB-C, dual USB 3.0, and combo audio ports for immediate device connection.

STORAGE CAPACITY

    • Side Storage Bracket - Supports 1x 3.5" HDD drive.

    • Bottom Storage Bracket - Supports 1x 2.5" SSD drive

ALL-IN-ONE COOLING & EASY CABLE ROUTING

The EX5 Plus eliminates extra build costs by including a custom 360mm AIO liquid cooler and pre-installed fans straight out of the box. Combined with generous interior depth, built-in tie-down points, and clean routing channels, you get a complete thermal setup and effortless cable management without buying additional hardware.
