FAQs

What motherboard sizes are compatible with the XT V5?

The case is designed to fit standard ATX motherboards, as well as Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX form factors.

Does the case come with a fan controller?

The fans included are PWM-controlled, and they can be daisy-chained or connected directly to your motherboard fan headers.

How do I clean the tempered glass panel?

Use a soft microfiber cloth and a mild glass cleaning solution to avoid scratching the surface.

Can I install liquid cooling radiators in this case?

Yes, the spacious interior allows for the installation of various radiator sizes, typically up to 360mm at the front or top, depending on component clearance.

Are the included fans pre-wired?

Yes, the 4x 120mm ARGB PWM fans are pre-installed, though you will need to connect them to your motherboard and power supply during the assembly process.

Troubleshooting

ARGB lighting is not syncing with the motherboard

Verify that the ARGB cable is securely connected to a 5V 3-pin header on your motherboard and that the software is configured to recognize the controller.

Fans are running at constant high speed

Enter your BIOS settings and ensure the fan headers are set to PWM mode rather than DC or Voltage control.

Components are overheating during load

Check that all dust filters are clear of debris and ensure that no cables are blocking the path of the intake or exhaust fans.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent thermal performance due to included 4x 120mm PWM fans
Sophisticated aesthetics with integrated ARGB lighting
Spacious interior makes cable management straightforward

Large mid-tower footprint may not fit smaller workspaces

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Phanteks XT V5, first ensure your workspace is clean and flat. Begin by installing your motherboard onto the pre-installed standoffs. When routing cables, utilize the dedicated cutouts and cable ties to keep the main chamber clear of obstructions, as this promotes better airflow. Ensure that the ARGB cables from the fans are connected to a compatible 5V 3-pin motherboard header to control lighting. For maintenance, clean the external surfaces with a dry microfiber cloth and periodically remove the dust filters to prevent build-up that could restrict intake airflow. Handle the tempered glass panel carefully to prevent scratches or cracks.
