ARCTIC Xtender VG Black E-ATX PC Case - Vertical GPU, ARGB
The ARCTIC Xtender VG Black E-ATX PC Case is a full-tower panorama design built for high-performance systems that need maximum air circulation and cooling capacity.

Vertical GPU mounting included
A 160 mm PCIe Gen 4 riser cable is included to mount your graphics card vertically, changing the visual focus of the build.
Dual radiator support
Accepts two separate radiators up to 420 mm on top and side, accommodating high-end liquid cooling setups.
Large tempered glass panorama
Tinted tempered glass on front and side panels showcases the interior hardware and 24 A-RGB LEDs integrated into the lower section.

- The case requires a PCIe Gen 4 slot for the vertical GPU riser; older Gen 3 boards will work but without the riser benefit.
Best for
- High-end gaming and streaming builds that demand multiple large radiators and heavy cooling.
- Showcase builds where a large glass panorama and RGB lighting are part of the aesthetic.
- Custom water-cooling loops needing space for 420 mm radiators and flexible fan placement.
- System builders who want five fans already installed to reduce day-one accessory purchases.
Trade-offs
- Compact or portable builds—this is a full tower at 529 mm tall and 15.4 kg.
- Budget builds or minimalist setups; the size and cooling overhead suit high-performance rigs.
- Small form factor systems—no Mini-ITX or SFF support; designed for E-ATX motherboards as primary target.
