Phanteks showcased a notable new case design at CES 2026: the Exo 626s. Built in partnership with CyberPowerPC, it’s a multi-chamber, open-frame-style case that separates key components,PSU, GPU, motherboard, and a 360mm AIO, into individual compartments to isolate heat and simplify airflow.

Key Design Features

  • Dedicated GPU chamber fits up to 4-slot cards, includes mesh panels and an RGB strip.
  • Separate PSU chamber houses front I/O (USB Type-C, Type-A, audio jack).
  • AIO chamber mounts a 360mm radiator and connects directly to the motherboard area.
  • Motherboard chamber has a glass front panel and rear access for a 120mm fan.

Availability

Currently, the Exo 626s is only available as part of a prebuilt CyberPowerPC system, priced at $3,500. The configuration includes an Intel Core Ultra 285K, RTX 5080, 32GB DDR5, 2TB Gen5 SSD, 360mm AIO, and a 1000W PSU.

Phanteks has not confirmed a standalone retail version, though the design has drawn interest from enthusiasts hoping for a DIY release.
