Cool looking case, but lighting is extra
The case is cool and I like it, but to get the lighting control that is showcased you would need to also get their control hub. Using their software none of the lighting controls would show up for any of the fans.
I ended up just going third party with the basic fan connections that were provided and solved it that way. Kind of a bad look if free software can do something that phanteks software would require a fan hub for.

Amazing looking Case
I got the EX5 Plus, airflow is great we did some smoke test and the flow is crazy good. Since the GPU is in a mesh box by itself heat just easily flows through, CPU temps are also inline with the most high-end case, even with a torture test the CPU stayed cool using the AOI that comes with the case, people will think removing the glass panel will increase airflow, barely registers and not even worth doing, the gaps around the glass panel pulls air around it and you get the same results. So, go showcase your $8000 GPU in its display case, case.
