EH "BLACK PANTHER"

EH “BLACK PANTHER” is an entirely new configuration a no-compromise successor to EH “Mystic Panther.” The ROG Z790 EXTREME has given way to the formidable ROG Z890 EXTREME, while the i9-13900K has been replaced by the Ultra 9 285K. The RTX 4090 STRIX exits the stage, making room for the RTX 5090 ASTRAL, a new predator at the very top of the food chain.

Four G.Skill Trident Z memory modules with a total capacity of 64 GB have been replaced by two G.Skill Trident Z5 CK modules, 24 GB each. The switch from the Lian Li 011XL to the monumental PHANTEKS NV9 triggered a complete evolution of the cooling system.

360 mm radiators were replaced by massive 420 mm units, and EK Vardar 120 EVO fans gave way to 140 mm PHANTEKS D30s. The EK Magnitude water block stepped aside for the ROG RYUJIN III WB. Even storage underwent a transformation. Samsung 980 PRO drives were replaced with even faster Samsung 990 PROs.

From the previous incarnation, only the fittings, reservoir, Creative AE-9 sound card, and the Corsair AX1600i power supply remain.

This is no ordinary computer. EH “BLACK PANTHER” embodies the spirit of a wild black panther—an untamed predator with yellow eyes, moving in silence and shadow. Power pulses relentlessly through its veins, hungry for the hunt and ready to strike at any moment.

Most importantly, the Ultra 9 285K—the brain of EH “BLACK PANTHER”—has, as always, been meticulously and precisely tuned. The result is over 20% higher gaming performance compared to stock settings, while delivering significantly better energy efficiency than the i9-13900K used in EH “Mystic Panther.”

A Black Panther is no ordinary cat. It stands at the very top of the feline hierarchy the most powerful warrior of the pride, an undisputed leader that combines raw strength with absolute control.
