Phanteks EX5: price, specs & release date

Read on 2026-10-15: Phanteks' own US store lists the black EX5 at $109.99 with an add-to-cart button, a pre-installed S25-120 mm rear mainboard fan and one 360 mm side radiator position. Phanteks' EX5 product page (model PH-EX526_DBK01) gives the mid-tower form with ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX support, 358 mm GPU length, a 72 mm CPU cooler height, the one included fan, a 360 mm side radiator as the only radiator mount, and steel panels with a tempered glass window over the GPU. Evetech's launch article confirms the standard EX5 with the same 358 mm GPU and 72 mm cooler limits and the $109.99 launch price. Phanteks prints the case size as 449 x 234 x 474 mm without saying which figure is depth and which is height, and retailers order them differently, so no dimensions are given. Phanteks' September 8, 2026 announcement says the EX5 was first shown at Computex 2026 and gives its availability as September 2026; the EX5 Plus and EX5 Max are separate models that add a built-in 360 mm liquid cooler.
