Phanteks today announces four models of the new Eclipse G500A, a new range of cooling fans, the M25 Series, and new all-white Neon D-RGB LED strips. The Eclipse G500A pushes the limit with its high airflow design to unlock next-gen CPU and GPU performance. The G500A's front and top panels feature Phanteks' Ultra-fine Performance Mesh design that combines high airflow performance with excellent dust filtration, all-in-one. With its spacious interior, the G500A is ready for powerful gaming setups, offering a 420 radiator in the front, and a 360 radiator in the top, while having plenty of space for full-length GPUs, multiple HDD and SSD locations, and a vertical GPU mounting option.

Like all Phanteks lighting products, the integrated D-RGB lighting is simple to control with pre-programmed lighting effects and requires no software. Optionally, the D-RGB controller can be synchronized with compatible motherboards and expanded with more D-RGB products. The G500A D-RGB comes with 2x D-RGB LED strips built into the front and side. Three M25-140 D-RGB fans are pre-installed on the front. The G500A D-RGB Fanless model includes 2x D-RGB LED strips built into the front and side. The G500A Performance model comes with 4x M25-140 black fans pre-installed and a white LED strip in the front.



M25 Series Fans
The Phanteks M25 fan builds upon the award-winning T30 fan to keep the next-gen hardware cool with high airflow cooling performance. The M25 fan blades are specifically optimized to perform the best with fine mesh/dust filters, heatsinks, and radiators with reduced RPM levels. This optimization keeps unwanted bearing noises at a minimum while also leaving plenty of cooling headroom, when necessary, by going full speed.

By sharing some of its design with the T30, the M25 stands out by delivering higher airflow through heatsinks and radiators with lower RPM levels with exceptional value. The wide RPM range, up to 1800 RPM for 140 mm models, and 2000 RPM for 120 mm models, can be precisely controlled through PWM to ensure the M25 is excellent for both quiet and high-end gaming systems.

The M25 Series is available in 120 mm and 140 mm sizes with options of single fan or triple fan kit and D-RGB or all-black non-DRGB.

All-White Neon D-RGB LED Strips
Phanteks' NEON Digital-RGB LED provides the smoothest lighting effect with many mounting positions to highlight your system. The easy-to-use and secure mounting set let you choose which hardware to highlight with a diffuse ray of light from the NEON LED strip. Now also available in white in three sizes: Combo (2x40cm), M5 (55 cm) and M1 (100 cm).

Pricing and Availability: - Available now

M25 Pricing seems extremely low if these are truly comparable to the T30 (probably not as good of course). Looking forward to reviews.

They seem to be more basic, airflow-oriented fans on a budget. I’m really hyped for the T30 140mm, but they’re not expected this year.

Never understood why anyone would buy these phanteks neon strips when you can go on Amazon and find the exact same product from a generic brand for half the price

As always, so-called "WHITE" products that aren't...

moar like "mostly" white, as in white + some other color, in this case being those light grey-ish vibration pads on the fans...

Is it really that hard to make something, anything, ALL white, as in 100.00 % pure white? Sure I know it would cost them anutha $ .000027 worth of pigment/filament, but just sayin :D

So, the G500A seems identical to the P500A except the right-side panel is hinged and they added cable management covers to the right side of the case, which seems pointless considering that right side panel is solid anyway. Aside from that, the G500A is using four of these new M25 fans. I'm not convinced by the "building on the T30" marketing though. The M25 looks like a bog standard cheap plastic fan. It's not using the same liquid-crystal polymer material the T30 is using, nor is it using the same blade design. Even the hub seems different (so probably different bearings?). The specs are nothing special, either.
