C5 CURVED B specification sheet

Overview:

The Antec C5 CURVED ARGB ATX | Micro-ATX | ITX ARGB Dual Chamber Mid-Tower Gaming Chassis in Black (Part Number: C5 CURVED B) redefines the enthusiast PC building experience by combining striking aesthetics with high-performance engineering. This mid-tower chassis is designed for builders who demand a seamless panoramic view of their hardware while maintaining superior thermal efficiency through an innovative dual-chamber layout. By separating the power supply and cable management into a dedicated lower compartment, the main chamber remains uncluttered to maximize airflow, ensuring your components run cool even under heavy loads.

Description:

The Antec C5 CURVED ARGB offers a premium foundation for high-end gaming rigs, featuring sleek 4mm curved tempered glass panels that wrap around the build for an immersive visual experience. It comes pre-installed with four ARGB PWM fans and a built-in controller, delivering vibrant lighting effects straight out of the box without additional setup complexity. The vertical cooling architecture supports extensive radiator mounting options up to 360mm, making it ideal for advanced water-cooling solutions, while generous internal clearance accommodates massive graphics cards and tall CPU coolers.

Features:

Showcase Your Build with Curved Glass
Gone are the days of flat, uninspired side panels that fail to capture the depth of a custom PC. The C5 Curve ARGB utilizes 4mm curved tempered glass to create a panoramic window effect that elegantly displays every cable, fan, and component inside your chassis. This design choice ensures that your build stands out as a centerpiece on any desk, blending modern styling with structural integrity. Paired with the included RGB lighting, you can customize the atmosphere of your setup instantly, creating an environment that matches your personal aesthetic preferences.

Dual-Chamber Cooling and Cable Management
The heart of this chassis is its smart dual-chamber design, which physically separates the power supply unit from the core computing components. This layout includes 95mm of dedicated cable management space in a separate compartment, keeping messy wires out of sight and ensuring they do not obstruct airflow to your CPU or GPU. The vertical cooling scheme utilizes a bottom-to-top airflow pattern, where three reverse-flow intake fans at the base pull cool air upward while a rear exhaust fan expels hot air efficiently. This setup supports up to 10 fans in total, providing exceptional thermal performance for overclocked systems.

Beyond standard air cooling, the C5 Curve ARGB is built for serious liquid cooling enthusiasts with extensive radiator support options. You can mount radiators up to 360mm on both the top and bottom panels, or fit a 280mm unit on the right-hand side panel, giving you the flexibility to choose your preferred cooling strategy. The case also supports next-generation back-connect motherboards, which route cables through the motherboard itself for an even cleaner interior and improved airflow channels.

Connectivity is handled by a robust front-panel I/O array that keeps essential ports within easy reach. This includes two USB 3.0 ports for peripheral connections, a high-speed Type-C 3.2 Gen 2 port for rapid data transfers, and dedicated mic and audio jacks. An LED control button allows you to easily adjust lighting modes and speeds on the fly without needing additional software.
