The short version

Phanteks' XT View Matrix is a panoramic-glass mid tower with a 600-LED Matrix display behind a mesh fabric interior panel that shows system data through the NexLinq app. It fits 415 mm graphics cards, 184 mm coolers and a 360 mm top radiator, with a side 240 mm radiator option when a vertical GPU bracket is used. Phanteks' scope of delivery lists no fans, so buyers need their own cooling. A five-year limited warranty applies.

What reviewers and owners say

  • PC Gamer

    Positive

    PC Gamer found this mid-tower cheap, easy to build in, and striking thanks to its configurable dot-matrix LED panel, though it lacks rubber grommets and an anti-sag bracket.

Common questions

Does the XT View Matrix include fans?

Phanteks' scope of delivery lists the chassis, a storage bracket and accessories but no fans, so plan to add your own cooling.

What does the Matrix display do?

Phanteks says the 600-LED display behind the fabric panel can show real-time system metrics, dates and custom animations through the NexLinq Windows app.
