Montech Announces X5 and X5M High Airflow Cases

[btarunr]

MONTECH proudly announces the global launch of its latest twin PC case series: the X5 and X5M. Engineered for gamers, performance PC builders, and hardware enthusiasts, the new lineup delivers an all-rounded upgrade with modern design, next-gen components support, and racing-inspired aesthetics. The X5 is a full-featured upgrade from the previous X3 generation. Its expanded interior accommodates up to E-ATX motherboards, providing extra space for complex builds and high-power platforms. With increased internal clearance and generous cable routing space, the X5 is engineered for ambitious system configurations.

For GPU support, the X5 raises the bar with compatibility for graphics cards up to 420 mm in length. A default GPU holder is built into the case, eliminating the need for additional accessories and ensuring secure installation for even the largest next-gen GPUs. Cooling performance is a central pillar of the X5 upgrade. The case comes equipped with three 140 mm fans at the front and one 120 mm fan at the rear, creating a strong airflow from intake to exhaust. It also supports up to 360 mm radiators at either the front and top, offering high thermal headroom for liquid cooling users.



The X5 also brings visual refinement with its fine carbon print finish, giving it a sleek, gaming, motorsport-inspired accent to the identity. The integrated ARGB lighting system supports 25 lighting modes, easily controllable through a physical switch on the top I/O interface. The Modern I/O panel guarantees the seamless connectivity by including USB-A, USB-C, and a compact audio jack. Whether gaming, streaming, or multitasking, users have all the front-panel access needed for fast interaction with devices.

Alongside the X5, the X5M delivers a more compact solution with the same design language. It features four pre-installed 120 mm fans, arranged for the closely similar internal compatibility of top-tier components in a smaller chassis size, making it ideal for tighter setups or minimalist desk environments. Despite its smaller size, the X5M does not compromise on visual elements. It retains the carbon-textured styling and ARGB lighting system, ensuring a cohesive look when paired with the X5 or used independently as a standalone build.



Together, the X5 and X5M offer a flexible and high-performance case lineup that empowers users to build without limits, whether scaling up for power or scaling down for space.

That HDD "cage" found on these cheap cases needs to go the way of dinosaurs sooner rather than later. same with those crappy hdd mounts on sheets of steel behind motherboard tray(usually without any form of vibration dampners).

HDDs are still widely used. I do agree though. Those little cages get thrown out if you don't use them. I rather have 5.25" slots down there, like the way the Fractal Pop series has them. It gives you more flexibility.

I have built in cases(Deepcool) that uses those HDD cages and if you want to instal drives you have to remove screws(often in awkward place) in order to remove that cage from case to install drives. Worst of all without vibration dampnening in some cases they add unwanted rattle. Fractal's solution certainly the best way forward(with 2x5.25" drive bays users can add any number of docks/drives).
