Case

This is my second Fractal Case. They have made improvements (I have a torrent). This case seems great. My one complaint would be the space for the power supply cables behind the powersupply. It is a bit tight. Many improvements have been made for cable management, and just generally building the case out. It would be nice if it came with fans for the top, but you can place your own up there. Maybe they expect you to put a radiator up there. I have always been an air cooling guy.

Fantastic Case. Great Design & Airflow.

This Is A High Quality Case With A Pleasant Installation Experience. User Guide Is Fairly Clear, And The Cable Routers And Cable Cover Is A Neat Addition. Make Sure Your Parts (PSU, GPU In Particular) Can Fit Inside This Case Because It's Quite Compact. The Compact Form Factor Allows The Included 140mm Front Case Fans To Cool The PC Components Without Losing Much Airflow. These Momentum Fans Are Top Class, And Runs Silently At 1,000 RPM. It's Very Important To Check The Manual As There Are Some Proprietary Components Like The Air Guide To Remove If You Plan To Install SSDs To The Bottom Of The Case. Plan Your HDD & SSD Cable Routing Ahead Of Time Before You Install The PSU, The Case Can Be A Bit Cramped. The Top Panel Supports A Maximum Radiator Size Of 280mm, This Is Still Good Enough To Cool My I7 CPU With An Arctic Liquid Freezer III AIO. Overall I'm Extremely Happy With This Case, The 3x 140mm Momentum Fans Are The Highlight.
