The exploded case

The EX5 splits the PC into islands — a glass CPU cube up top, the GPU floating in its own tray, the PSU in a plinth below, and a mesh fan tower binding them — with addressable edge lighting tracing every seam.

Glacier One LCD

Phanteks' 360M25 crowns the top module with an LCD pump display — live CPU temps or artwork, visible from across the room.

Performance profile

Why this build stands out

Ryzen 7 9850X3D — 3D V-Cache

Eight Ryzen 9000-series cores boosting to 5.6 GHz with stacked cache — the fastest path to high-refresh frame rates.

RTX 5080 — 16GB GDDR7

PNY's triple-fan card, showcased face-out in the EX5's floating tray. High-refresh 1440p with ease, real 4K at Ultra.

1300W, semi-fanless

CyberPower's High Power ATX 3.0 unit runs its fan only under load — silent at the desktop, headroom for anything.

Architecture as light show

No glass box here — the EX5's staggered modules and edge strips make the case itself the centerpiece.
