Fractal Design North Charcoal Black

Great case, excellent cooling, looks amazing. It has decent cable management, it fits all my cables in a semi organised fashion but I definitely built in better cases when it comes to cable management. Easy to build in and fractal customer support is amazing. I lost the side fan bracket contacted customer support and they shipped out a replacement at no extra cost. Would highly reccomend

Wow, this case is incredible and so much fun to work with! It fits my double fan radiator and even a beefy 4080 graphics card without a problem. Looks incredible, and while it's expensive, I absolutely think it's worth it in the end. The temperatures are also fantastic.

I was a tad worried the wood effect would look cheap but this is a genuinely nice case. If you're building a living room PC or your office is full of dark wood furniture this will really fit in nicely. Fairly easy case to work with so no complaints there, I probably wouldn't use it for a high end build that would run hot (think 80 series GPUs and above) but for a normal mid range desktop/light gaming rig I'd buy another in a heartbeat.

I've just finished new build using an i9 14900k and a 4070 GPU - and air cooled with Noctua fans throughout. I got the mesh version because, as a photographer, I need to keep the light in my room constant and free from distraction and therefore won't benefit from RGB -- this also means I didn't need to worry so much about super-neat cable management, although it's still pretty tidy. Besides, I don't want my workspace to look like a teenage gamer's bedroom. It is very nicely made, feels solid although somewhat heavy. I also think it looks better in real life than it does in photos. The only negative is that the USB-c connector wasn't working -- this was quickly remedied by dropping an email to Fractal Design, who shipped me a new i/o unit; a pain to fit but now it works fine. Overall I'm happy.

This is a very nice looking case. Nice clicky power button which feels it will stand the riggers of use. Separate jacks for headphone and mic. Easy cable management and an easy case to work in. Can hardly hear the case fans. Side panel is easily scratched so be careful. Top panel is only held on by a magnet so be careful when picking the case up. Thumb screws feel cheap and are not that great to use. Its a while since I have built a new PC and a few things were missing from the case that would have been standard the last time I bought one. Such as No Reset switch and No HDD activity LED. Over all though I am very happy with the case.

Great looking, high quality, been using for 9 months, no complaints.

Brought this for my son as a Christmas present and he was over the moon ! He now has a very smart pc set up. looks good and is very well made.

This computer case looks beautiful. The wood finish on the front really makes the design. The case is well sized, just big enough to fit an RTX 4090. Very easy to install the parts as it's very modular, if you need extra space or find that you don't need the drive bays you can simply unscrew them and they can be taken out. I think this is a very good value product as it appears to be a full metal construction, comes with decent quiet fans and removable dust filters to make cleaning easy. The airflow in the case is more than adequate and works very well at removing the heat output of my components.

This case is awesome. There were a lot of good design choices that made this a pleasure to build in. Cable management is very easy, even for those of us who don't like to put much effort into it. The case offered plenty of space for the new GPUs that are massive, and a good size cooler for the 9800x3d that I used. I definitely will be using Fractal Design again in the future. It's hard to beat the aesthetic as well! Great case!

I absolutely LOVE this case design! The throwback to wood paneling on our electronics is appreciated. I find it adds this touch of nature and elegance to your space. Just behind the paneling is the dust filter, which is pretty great, I find myself cleaning it every week or two. It's super easy to slide the front panel out and snap off the filter. Not bad metal thickness either, it seems like a pretty solid case. It barely fits in my current desk setup, make sure you measure correctly. The dimensions are 8.5"w 18.5"h 17.5"l give or take, and don't forget to leave some clearance for air flow. :) The cable management was good for me with no issues and everything seems to be staying cool so far. I really need to figure out how to take care of the wood paneling because I'm just past 6 months of ownership and I'm seeing what appears to be something goin' on with it, almost just looks a little too dry, maybe needs some polish or oil. I've never cleaned the wood yet.

+ Nice finish + Good internal layout (easy to make a hidden cable management) + Rubber distances for HDD mounting included. + Informative manual

Siempre me han gustado las cajas para PC "distintas" las he tenido totalmente transparentes en los 90s, incluso he llegado a tener un PC construido dentro de un cajón de escritorio, esta es de esas "minimalistas" estuve por pillar una Corsair a la que se le pueden colocar paneles de madera, pero se subía mucho de precio y esta me llamó la atención, me recordó a los diseños de IKEA y como en el salón tengo madera me atrajo la verdad. Tengo que decir, que antes de comprarla también vi un video en youtube de un unboxing con su review, esta es la XL y queria estar seguro de que me iba a entrar todo sin problema, la gráfica es enorme y el disipador de la CPU también. Trae detalles, como en otras cajas que se precien hoy en día, la tornillería, las correas, las cintas y en esta también una bandeja lateral para colocar 2 ventiladores auxiliares para refrigerar la gráfica o bien la CPU, en mi caso no la he colocado No es blanca "blanco nieve" a ver, es como color hueso o blanco huevo y el interior tampoco es que sea negro, he montado otras cajas blancas con el interior igualmente blanco, pero en esta es mas bien gris oscuro, que en la mía no se ve porque es cerrada sin ventana, el lateral es Mesh (panel micro agujereado) la parte superior igualmente es una maya. Trae 3 ventiladores de 120 PWM en el frontal (que se pueden retirar) yo le colocado otros 2 de 140 uno detras y otro arriba., le he colocado también otro de 80 sujeto por fuera detrás de la gráfica para ayudar a extraer el aire caliente cuando esté a tope. No está insonorizada, pero tampoco es ruidosa al tener ventiladores de 140 (incluidos los de la CPU) que son mas silenciosos, unas buenas patas de goma y topes también de goma para los discos duros (si los pones) eso sí el aire fluye que da gusto, es muy fresca. A la hora de montar y desmontar es fácil, son tornillos de palometa que se pueden quitar con los dedos o incluso la tapa superior que se desliza hacia atrás sin tornillos (tiene una lengüeta de piel) En resumen, muy buena estética y diseño, que la puedes poner en una sala o salón sin que te parta la vista, jejejejjj.

Good product slightly overpriced
