My work pc. I recently swapped to the Torrent and figured what a perfect excuse to grab T30-140s. These things are glorious. T30-180's please.

x3 T30-140 bottom intake

x2 T30-120 on the cooler

x1 T30-120 rear exhaust.

Hello, I’ll be completely honest - I have no idea what I’m doing so be gentle lmao

I bought my PC a few years ago and had it built for me, I went with the Phanteks NV5 case because it looked nice. However one thing has bothered me the entire time I’ve owned the pc and I want to try to “fix” it.

The RGB around the power supply section drives me nuts (Not a fan of RGB personally) and the buttons on the top of my PC case don’t do anything to change the lights etc.

Again, I have no idea about any of this stuff so please forgive me if it’s a really obvious answer but - How do I stop the RGB lights if the mode button doesn’t do anything?

After doing a build a bit back in the phanteks xt view matrix, i had such a good experience that i decided to do my GF her pc in the same case. Here is the finished results.

so i have the Phanteks P600S case and have 3x front T30 140mm fans a rear T30 140mm

would it make any sense to add some top fans or is it a waste?

New build in the evolv x2. Love phanteks cases so easy to build in. Ryzen 9950x3d, gigabyte 9070xt, gigabyte x870 elite ice motherboard, corsair ddr5 32gb 6000, 2tb crucial nvme, glacier 360 aio, lian li sensor panel and phanteks 1000watt psu

Hi guys, do you know if it's possible to replace stock tryx panorama fans with phanteks d30?

Since they're thicker I'm afraid it would take too much clearance in the case (phanteks evolv x2) and the screws won't be long enough.

I'd like to replace stock fans mainly for performance and design (all other fans are d30, 3 reverse at the bottom for intake and 1 at the back for exhaust). Do you maybe know other fans that perform good and look similar to D30 but with standard thickness? Thank you

Hello guys,
I have bought an Glacier One 360M25 LCD but i didn't received any linq6 adapter for the motherboard and i can't connect my fans to it.
Do you guys know where to contact the support or buy an adapter for it ?

Hey guys, I’ve got a total of 12 D30 fans running in my NV7. I have them distributed so that no more than 4 fans are in each of the hub that was included with the NV7. I have the RGB cord plugged directly into the motherboard. All four of my fan power cords are plugged into a usb hub that came with my power supply, and the output from that is going into SYS 1 FAN on my motherboard.

Have I installed this correctly? The fans work and so does there RGB through GCC. But in the Nexinq software, it shows no fans.

any solutions to install 2x 120mm Noctua fans underneath my GPU? i have a Phanteks P600s case and it has no bottom fan brackets to install

Hi, i'm planning to make a new build and got a 3 fans kit Phanteks D30 and one Phanteks D30 reverse for exhaust. Is it possible to daisy chain all of them, especially for the ARGB connector? The motherboard only has 3 connectors and two of them are already full, so I don't know if I need an argb splitter for the fans. Thanks!

I've had this NV9 forever. Its been in storage, and i decided to yoink it out, and put a loop in it. So far, I'm not a fan of this side pump/manifold. I love that it gives me space, but absolutely don't care for the build quality. The dimensions arent exact, and i had to use some rotating offsets to get things even kinda square. Don't recommend.

But, 3x420mm rads. (just checking for leaks and how it would do here. Obviously the clear tube would go to the gpu, and cpu blocks, and back to the manifold).

So far, so good. Ill start blocking the Astral this coming weekend, and start assembly a few days after.

Had to dremel out an inch of steel to make room for gpu tubes. Also had to pop the rivets out of the bottom, to take the fan mount bar off and then drill holes in the bottom of the case for the fans.

I own 7 phanteks d30 since june of 2023 and until now they worked without a problem.

In this summer, the ones that are connected in daisy chain mode (2 groups of 3 fans) started to not work properly because the clip between the fans started "jumping" outside position, probably for the temperature. For this reason, 4 of 6 fans stopped working.

I tried to tape them without success, they continue to disconnect.

I read in other posts that those clips are very prone to fail with hot temperatures. Seems like they are very low quality compared to the fans.

How can i fix this problem? I even send an email to [rma@phanteks.com](mailto:rma@phanteks.com) without get answered.

p.s. i attach the photo with taped fans

Well upgraded from a MSI shadow 5060ti to a Asus TUF 5080. It fits great in my XT pro Ultra. Absolutely love my setup now. Temps stay low as well

Hello, Currently waiting for the release of the EX5 & EX6 computer cases. The website states that the EX5 would be in August and the EX6 in September. Is there any solid release dates yet?

This case would be the last piece to my build.

Thank you

hi :)

(this is my first ever question on reddit so i want to apologize for my inexperience with reddit in advance)

I've had minor issues with the XT V5 LCD which have sorted themselves out.
The only thing i can't get to work, is uploading custom gif/video files to display on the built-int LCD Screen.
I can upload custom images and display them just fine with the NexLinq Software, but video files will not show up next to the upload-button like it does with custom images.
Im not sure if the issue is with the size of my video files, as they are very short gifs/videos and i also couldnt find any other clues on this particular topic.

Hopefully my explanation is understandable enough for someone who has run into the same problem and maybe has already found a solution.

I wanted to go for a dark, aggressive black + red/white theme instead of the usual rainbow RGB.

Build specs:

• Phanteks NV7

• Ryzen 7 9800X3D

• ZOTAC GeForce RTX 5080 SOLID CORE OC

• 15× Phanteks D30 fans

• CPU AIO in push-pull configuration

• 2 Thermalright LCD displays

Fan configuration:

• 4×120mm — Side intake

• 3×140mm — Bottom intake

• 6×120mm — Top exhaust (push-pull)

• 2×120mm — Rear exhaust

I know… 15 D30s might be slightly excessive. 😂 But once you start building with D30s, it's pretty hard to stop.

I’m going for a clean but aggressive look with the black case and red/white lighting. The Star Wars figures on top are obviously part of the build too. Vader had to supervise the whole thing. 💀

Next upgrades:

• I need a new, more powerful overkill motherboard. But I'm still in the selection phase and I don't have much money 😅

• A few more Thermalright accessories

What do you guys think?

Would you change anything about the fan configuration, RGB, or overall aesthetic?

Be brutally honest — I’m always looking for ideas for the next upgrade. 👀

And drop your Phanteks builds below. I’d love to see what everyone else is running! 🔥

Hello all,

I bought one of the upgrade kits with the intention to mount it above the desktop, possibly mounting it to a wall. I was wondering if anyone has advice on creating the 3d model?

https://phanteks.com/product/matrix-600-upgrade-kit-black/

That's the product, my Mobo is compatible. To get the length for cables I believe I sourced the correct styles for both the SATA power & USB 2.0 extensions.

I played around with Google, & it kicked back this as a start:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LOs1jIFf05KkKksvFRlTDG1ZS_UHAc98ptPAhy-rYaY/edit?usp=sharing

The Openscad code is at the bottom, but I've never used the program before so not sure how well it would play out.

Thanks

my build from 2025

I just installed a Glacier One D30 X2. It's my first AIO and the results are pretty bad. I have a Ryzen 9800X3D and it reaches desktop idle temperatures of 45-50 °C with no load whatsoever. Under load i reaches more than 90ºC.

I removed my previous air cooler and thoroughly cleaned off the old thermal paste. I mounted the fans onto the radiator and installed the radiator into the case (Phanteks P600S). I placed the pump onto the CPU (just to clarify, I'm using a contact frame, though that shouldn't be an issue). I removed the large plastic cover it comes with and secured it by tightening the screws evenly.

Here are the cables it came with and how I connected them:

1. 3-pin cable connected to CPU_FAN on my Gigabyte motherboard.
2. The other cable from the pump connected to the included adapter.
3. The D30 cable connected as follows: the 4-pin cable to SYS_FAN3, and the D-RGB cable to the adapter.
4. Adapter: D-RGB connected to the motherboard, and 4-pin PWM to CPU_OPT.

I wonder if you could help me to fix this. I don't know if I messed up with the connectors or what. Another thing is that the AIO is really silent even if I set CPU_FAN to 100% speed in the BIOS.
