Know before you buy
The InfiniRail system uses a sliding rail design rather than fixed screw holes, allowing you to slide your fans to the exact position you need. This provides much greater flexibility for fine-tuning airflow and ensures compatibility with various radiator and fan configurations.
Yes, the 5000D RS is specifically engineered to be compatible with reverse connector motherboards. This design helps hide your cables behind the motherboard tray for a cleaner, more streamlined look.
RapidRoute 2.0 features dedicated channels and ample space behind the motherboard tray to route your cables efficiently. It keeps your main chamber clear of clutter, which improves both the aesthetic of your build and internal airflow.
Yes, the case includes a built-in GPU anti-sag stabilization arm. This adjustable support helps prevent your graphics card from drooping over time, protecting both the card and the PCIe slot on your motherboard.
The case is highly versatile and supports a variety of radiator sizes, including up to 360mm radiators in multiple locations. It is designed to accommodate complex custom cooling loops or multiple AIO setups simultaneously.
The included RS140 fans feature daisy-chainable connections, which significantly reduce the number of cables you need to manage. Since they are PWM-controlled, you can easily adjust their speed through your motherboard BIOS for a balance of cooling and silence.
