Fractal Design Torrent Reviews
Easy to build in
Super easy case to build in. Was my first build and had basically 0 issues. No complaints.
Thoughtful design, ideal for air cooled CPUs
Ever since top vents started coming into vogue, I've longed for a case like this to make an appearance, and it's everything I wanted. The key differentiator of this case compared to most other, modern cases is that it has no vents on the top. For air cooling, this is ideal because you want air to go through the CPU cooler and out the back, not go out the top and skip the cooler entirely or come in from the top and screw up the flow direction. There is a slope in front of the top-mounted PSU that forces the incoming air from the empty space at the top of the front fans down into the CPU cooler. Then the GPU area is fed by additional fans on the bottom to ensure there's plenty of fresh air. This amount of airflow allows you to run the fans at pretty low speeds, being almost silent at 60% in the front and 40% on the bottom, while not significantly reducing the cooling potential. There are mesh filters in front of both sets of fans, keeping the interior a lot cleaner than it would be without them. The panels pop off nicely with some sort of magnetic or tension mounting. Overall, the design of the toolless access and working inside this case feels like an improvement over the Meshify C case I had before. Of course, there is one compromise. If you want non-nvme drives, it only has room for a couple on the rear of the motherboard panel, and there's not much airflow in that area, so I'd hesitate to use a spinning platter hard drive. At this point, I only use nvme drives and a separate NAS for storing media, so that's no problem for me.
