The big part of the Phanteks showcase was the NEXLINQ, a set of cooling components, or an ecosystem as Phanteks likes to describe it, which includes the M25 G2 fans, Glacier One M25 G2 AIO, and a NEXLINQ Hub. The NEXLINQ and components will feature support for the whole new LINQ-6 connector that will be able to provide both power and D-RGB lighting to the fans.

Phanteks took the Computex 2024 show by force, showing off several new and improved cases, including the new Evolv X², the Eclipse G400A and G400N, which are successors to the P400 line, upgraded NV5 MKII and NV9 MKII cases, and the new Enthoo Pro II Server Edition XL case for the server market.

The star of the show is definitely the new Evolv X², a case that Phanteks says is redefined to fit modern consumer needs. It certainly has the modern and refined aesthetic to appeal to the wider audience, with brushed aluminium interior panels and full front to side glass panel. Some of the key features include integrated cable management, key fan positions to cool down and show off most hardware components, as well as support for rear-connector mainboard, something that most modern motherboards will have.
