Phanteks has expanded its XT chassis lineup with three new compact ATX models, including the XT M5, XT V5, and XT V5-LCD. First unveiled at Computex 2026, these cases pack support for standard 360mm radiators and ATX power supplies in a small desktop footprint.
Every model in the update incorporates an integrated GPU support bracket alongside a high-speed USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C port on the front I/O. Phanteks equips each case with pre-installed cooling out of the box, consisting of a single 120mm rear fan alongside a 360mm single-frame S25 ARGB fan assembly. All models support 360mm radiators on the top panel.
Designed specifically for airflow, the XT M5 features a mesh front panel and supports up to 10x 120mm fans. The XT V5 swaps the mesh for glass front and side panels while mounting its single-frame fan set at the bottom for direct GPU cooling. This change, however, reduces the total number of 120mm fans supported to seven. Building on the V5 layout, the XT V5-LCD adds a built-in 7-inch display that users can configure using the Nexlinq app for Windows.
Pricing for the XT M5 Black and XT V5 Black starts at $79.99, while the XT V5-LCD Black retails for $109.99.

If you hadn't heard, GitHub made an offer that may or may not have been real at one point, but definitely isn't anymore. The original claim was that for the first 1000…
The Nintendo Switch 2 has received plenty of praise for its hardware quality, with the sequel system taking what was a rather toy-like handheld and transforming it into a premium-feeling product. Unfortunately, the Switch 2’s screen left plenty to be desired, not only due to its LCD nature, but also as a result of notable ghosting on the 120hz panel. While a new OLED model still seems to be years away, the current LCD screen on Nintendo’s Switch 2 could be receiving a new revision.
As reported by the publication NintendoEverything, a new Switch 2 revision could be on its way with an updated LCD screen. This comes via listings online which claim to be offering a new LCD panel for the handheld.
Based on the model number listed, analysis by NintendoPatentsWatch deduced this new panel will be an LTPS screen made by Sharp (as opposed to the current model produced by Innolux).
Sharp is a well known and long-standing display maker, and so such a partnership does make sense. Whether this new panel will solve the current ghosting / screen response times affecting the Switch 2 however, we will have to wait and see.

We are primarily focusing on the performance of each cooler at 100% fan speed and also when locked to 40dBA noise output. We will focus on cooling performance using a manual overclock with all-core frequency and VCORE locked to 5.2GHz/1.3V (AMD) and 5.5GHz/1.3V (Intel) and Precision Boost Overdrive performance.
The test data is logged using HWINFO and the final 10 minutes of the data is calculated to find the average CPU temperature and CPU clock multiplier (AMD PBO Test) and then plotted in the charts.
For testing, we use a 30-minute looped run of Cinebench R23 and record the steady-state CPU temperature at the end of the test. This ensures that the CPU has had ample time to warm up and reach a steady state under all of the coolers.
The ambient is maintained at 19-21 degrees Celsius. Where there is variation beyond this temperature range, we add extra repeated tests to ensure consistency. However, this is well controlled now with A/C.
We also test each cooler with at least two fresh installs (typically three) to mitigate the likelihood of poor mounting spoiling results.
Ambient temperature and humidity are controlled via a mini split air conditioning system inside the test room. Ambient temperature is maintained between 19-20°C; temperature delta figures are shown in the charts (ambient temperature is deducted from the measured component temperature).
Test Results:
Acoustics
We will start by looking at noise output which gives us a good indication of thermal performance based on noise.
When looking at noise output with the fans and pump operating at max speed, there’s quite a wide spread between the coolers on test. The quietest is the ASRock Challenger 360 Digital at 47dBA, which puts it among the quieter coolers in our database overall. The Enermax Liqmax IV 360 also performs well at 48dBA, while the CPS PCCOOLER GT360M ARGB Display sits in the middle at 51dBA.
At the louder end of the chart are the ASRock Phantom Gaming 360 LCD and Cooler Master MasterLiquid Core Nex 360 ARGB both at 52dBA, which is noticeable but still quite typical for 360mm liquid coolers running flat out. The Sudokoo Energlo 360 comes in slightly higher at 53dBA, while the loudest cooler of this group is the DeepCool Spartacus 360 at 55dBA. That’s definitely getting loud enough to be quite distracting.
Thermal Performance: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X
With fans and pumps still running at max speed, thermal performance from the coolers on test is competitive, with only 2°C separating the best and worst results in this test. Leading the pack are the CPS PCCOOLER GT360M ARGB Display, DeepCool Spartacus 360 and Sudokoo Energlo 360, all at 59°C CPU over ambient under steady-state load, which places them among the top performing AIOs in our chart overall.
Just behind are the ASRock Challenger 360 Digital and Phantom Gaming 360 LCD, alongside the Cooler Master ML Core Nex 360 ARGB, with all three producing a 60°C delta result. While not chart-topping, the difference in real-world terms is small and well within the range you would expect from good 360mm liquid coolers. The Enermax Liqmax IV 360 Display trails slightly at 61°C, though again the margin is minimal.
At a noise-normalised level of 40dBA, the thermal results provide a clearer indication of efficiency once acoustics are taken into account. At the top we see the ASRock Challenger 360 Digital and Phantom Gaming 360 LCD, both with a 63°C delta, placing them in the top end of the chart. Just behind them is the Sudokoo Energlo 360 at 64°C over ambient, followed by the CPS PCCOOLER GT360M ARGB Display and the DeepCool Spartacus 360 at 65°C. suggesting similar efficiency once acoustics are equalised.
Further back is the Enermax Liqmax IV 360 at 66°C over ambient, while the Cooler Master MasterLiquid Core Nex 360 ARGB trails slightly further at 67°C. These results indicate both models lose efficiency when limited to a 40dBA noise target, relying more heavily on higher fan speeds to maintain thermal performance.
Switching to AMD PBO testing, the results reflect a more real-world scenario where we see how effectively coolers can maintain boost clocks under sustained load. The strongest results come from the ASRock Phantom Gaming 360 LCD, which posts a 52.5x clock multiplier and 63°C delta, placing it among the top-performing units in the PBO test. The ASRock Challenger 360 Digital follows with the same clock multiplier but just 1°C higher delta so basically producing the same CPU performance.
Just below is the Deepcool Spartacus with the same 52.5x clock multiplier at 65°C and the Sudokoo Energlo at 66°C delta, again with a 52.5 x multiplier. Further back with a clock multiplier of 52.4x are the Cooler Master ML Coer Nex Digital at 64°C delta, the CPS PCCOOLER GT360M at 64°C and the Enermax trails at 66 °C over ambient. While these results place them behind the best coolers, the clock multipliers are narrow enough that, under AMD PBO conditions, all of the tested 360mm AIOs deliver similar sustained boost behaviour.
KitGuru says: In terms of real-world performance, all of these coolers are quite closely matched. However, in terms of best value for money, I'd go with the ASRock Challenger 360 Digital as it combines good thermals, low max fan speed noise and a decent-looking screen at a reasonable price.
After bringing the EV63 as the flagship Hall Effect 60% keyboard that brings an unparalleled gaming experience, IQUNIX is back with its EV63 "Ghost in the Shell" edition, which it showcased at the Computex event recently. The EV63 Ghost in the Shell is based on the standard EV63 but brings some noticeable changes to both the appearance and hardware, bringing a special experience to the desk that enthusiasts would love. I was lucky to get the EV6 Ghost in the Shell edition keyboard, which essentially retains the same core hardware foundation as the standard EV63 while introducing a unique visual […]

Thermaltake is introducing both the standard TR200 and the wood-accented TR200 WS, two models that lean into the furniture-tech trend that has defined much of the hardware aesthetics in 2026. This Micro-ATX lineup offers a refreshing choice between a high-airflow mesh front and a warmer, lifestyle-oriented vertical wood design that fits perfectly into contemporary living spaces.
Despite its compact footprint, the TR200's internal layout is surprisingly spacious, supporting graphics cards up to 365 mm in length. Perhaps the most interesting “retro-modern” inclusion is the 5.25-inch drive bay. While many thought the optical drive bay was a relic of the past, its inclusion here provides a spot for specialised front-panel modules or fan controllers that many enthusiasts enjoy. Cooling support is equally robust for the size, supporting up to a 360 mm radiator and a total of seven 120 mm fans, giving this mATX chassis the thermal headroom typically reserved for larger mid-tower systems.
For those who want to customise the case, Thermaltake is offering an optional 6.0-inch LCD Screen Kit. With a 1480 × 720 resolution, the display is powered by the TT RGB PLUS 3.0 ecosystem and introduces a very 2026 feature: AI Forge integration. This allows users to generate custom backgrounds and system-monitoring visuals with simple text prompts, making it easier than ever to match the internal display to the external wood or mesh aesthetic. You can also personalise the visuals via the TT PlayLink mobile app.
Available in black and white, with or without wooden accents, these cases also feature a modern I/O stack that includes USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 for fast data transfers and dedicated dust filters on the top, bottom, and side panels.
KitGuru says: Of the four Thermaltake TR200 models, which one do you like the most?
Jonsbo is maintaining its rapid release pace with the debut of the TX-360 AIO liquid cooler. This new flagship cooling solution leans heavily into current aesthetic trends, featuring a high-resolution circular screen on the pump block and an elaborate LED lighting system across its triple-fan array. Following the same design language as Jonsbo's X, D, and BO series cases, the TX-360 offers deep customisation options for both performance monitoring and visuals.
The TX-360 features a 3.95-inch LCD integrated into the pump head. According to Cowcotland, the screen, with a resolution of 480 x 480 and a brightness of 450 nits, is managed via the Jonsbo-AIO software, allowing users to display real-time system metrics, custom images, videos, or clock widgets. In a clever bit of engineering, the screen assembly attaches magnetically to the water block using Pogo pins for data and power transmission. This modular design simplifies the mounting process and ensures a clean look without extra wires trailing from the pump head.
Unlike traditional AIOs with three separate fans, the TX-360 uses a unified triple-fan frame that houses three 120 mm fans. This design reduces cable clutter by using a single output cable with PWM and RGB headers. The lighting is notably complex, with the fan blades featuring centred rings and the frame itself providing an infinite mirror effect when viewed from the side. Performance-wise, the fans operate between 700 and 2,400 RPM, delivering 62.4 CFM of airflow and 2.46 mmH2O of static pressure. While effective, Jonsbo notes a peak noise level of 37.3 dB(A).
While many manufacturers are beginning to sunset support for legacy hardware, Jonsbo is taking a universal approach. The TX-360 includes mounting kits for a wide range of sockets, including AMD AM4 and AM5, as well as Intel 115x, 1200, 1700, and the latest LGA-1851 for Arrow Lake processors.
KitGuru says: Although pricing isn't known yet, Jonsbo usually doesn't stretch its prices too much. Still, considering the feature set and looks, it will likely cost more than an entry-level AIO cooler from well-known brands.
Phanteks has joined the trend of AIOs with big LCDs with the announcement of the 360M25-LCD AIO, a 360mm liquid cooler that stands out for its massive 6-inch high-resolution IPS LCD.
The built-in display boasts a 1480×720 resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate, making it one of the largest currently available on a pump block. Despite the screen's size, the unit was designed to maintain a 51mm clearance for tall RGB RAM modules, ensuring compatibility with most motherboards and memory kits.
A pure-copper cold plate handles the cooling alongside a 360mm radiator equipped with three new M25 Gen 2 D-RGB fans. These fans are designed for high airflow and low acoustic output, and use the Nexlinq daisy-chain system to minimise cable clutter by routing both power and lighting through a single connection. The hardware is fully compatible with modern sockets, including Intel LGA 1851 and AMD AM5.
On the software side, the Nexlinq App for Windows offers deep LCD customisation, allowing users to display clock speeds, temperatures, and media files without significant CPU overhead. The display logic operates directly at the hardware level to ensure that animations remain smooth even under the system's load. Available in both black and white finishes, the 360M25-LCD AIO is priced at £129.90/$149.99/€149.90.
KitGuru says: The 360M25-LCD AIO feels like a direct response to the big LCD offers that have flooded the industry in the last couple of years. The good thing is that it isn't as expensive as many of the others.
