Phanteks, a leading manufacturer of premium PC hardware, introduces three groundbreaking products for high-performance PC enthusiasts. The NV5 mid-tower chassis, NV5 Premium DRGB Kit, and Premium Vertical GPU Bracket combine innovative features, exceptional cooling capabilities, and striking design, delivering unparalleled performance and aesthetics to PC builds.

The NV5 mid-tower chassis offers superior cooling and visual appeal. Its near-seamless glass panels showcase hardware in style, while supporting up to eight 120 mm fans and dual 360 radiators for optimal cooling. The chassis accommodates modern GPUs and cables effortlessly, with a removable PSU cover for easy cable management. Customizable integrated Digital-RGB lighting and optional NV5 DRGB lighting Kit (sold separately) adds personalization to the build.



Key Features of the NV5 Mid-Tower Chassis:
  • Near-seamless glass panels for a perfect view of all your system components.
  • Increased chassis width to support wider modern GPUs and 12VHPWR cables.
  • Ultra-fine performance mesh design for high airflow with good dust filtration.
  • A total of eight 120 mm fan positions for high-end cooling performance.
  • Removable PSU cover for easy access and installation.
  • Integrated Digital-RGB lighting with software-free controller.
  • GPU support bracket included.
  • Optional upgrade: NV5 Premium DRGB Kit available with a motherboard cover and additional DRGB lighting strips that can be installed magnetically to the frame of the case.
Premium Vertical GPU Bracket: Showcase Your Graphics Card with Style
The Premium GPU Bracket revolutionizes graphics card display, combining flexibility and style. Supporting vertical orientation and adjustable up to 30 degrees, it creates visually appealing displays from any angle. Furthermore, the bracket offers additional reinforcement for NVIDIA GPUs featuring rear screw positions, and when placed vertically, it can be securely mounted onto the motherboard or the PSU cover of the Eclipse Series (G300A/G360A/G500A). The bracket's D-RGB lighting enhances aesthetics, creating a visually stunning experience.

Phanteks continues to innovate, delivering premium products that elevate PC building. The NV5 Mid-Tower Chassis, NV5 DRGB Premium Lighting Kit, and Premium GPU Bracket offer unmatched performance, style, and customization options for PC enthusiasts.

If there was a front mesh version of this case I'd buy it in an instant.
 
To me it is a travesty that a case this big has no support for 140mm fans.
 
I’ve been waiting for this case so long, just wish it were smaller :(

The intakes use (market leading?) mesh, or do you mean more like an 011 air with dual intakes?

The me the 011 would be so much better (Any case for that matter) if the fans were able to be angled like in the Cooler Master HAF 500 on the bottom.

Dual intake. With PSU on the floor you don't have a cold floor to make up for the lack of directed air coming from the side intake.
 
I hear you but am now just more confused — wouldn’t you run the PSU as intake from the bottom? They don’t exhaust out of the “top.”

Idk how much “directed airflow” actually makes a difference, especially without blower GPUs (and with so many people just filling up every fan slot for the sake of it, particularly top exhaust fanatics on these forums, which is bonkers for the most part), but am generally in favor of more pressure than less, so can appreciate the desire for seven intake fans, even if overboard unless you’re using dual 360 radiators at the front.

I was meaning in regards to the O11 that has the PSU behind the mobo tray, the side intake doesn't matter as much as you have fans on the floor for the GPU.
 
I see what you mean. Still, imo, side intake shouldn’t make much of a difference. It’s not like the air is going to hit the other side and get stuck there :)

But yeah, bottom intake probably helps a little bit for the GPU. Clearance and impedance kind of sucks on all of these cases though. They need to give us at least an inch!
 
It's a nice looking case, but slowly the market is becoming saturated with alternative versions of the Lian Li o11. I loved when Phanteks still had great offerings in the small ATX or mATX space and owned a Phanteks Evolv mATX for some years. Where did that size class go? It's either enthusiast-ITX or enthusiast EATX now. Even the budget offerings like the G300A are growing in size from release to release. Guess what, Phanteks, people who go for budget cases rarely combine those with a 4090, but often with a 30 cm long card. ;)

The NV5 is good looking, but a 60 litres mid tower case. Companies like Fractal Design sell cases with 60+ litres volume within the XL naming scheme. :D

My kingdom for Enthusiast EATX, so many cases might *support* EATX but the cable management invariably gets covered by the board.
