*** NEW Fractal Design Case - Coming Soon ***

[daniel_bourton]

i would go for enermax fans personally both 120s and 140s they are quite silent and really quite good for cfm there not that cheap though for price i think the yateloons are really good price to performance wise though

Does anyone know if a Noctua DH-14 fits in this case with 2 fans at the top of the case orientated so that the fans are exhausting out the top of the case?

nice cable management holes too

I would have said full size, that's about the same size as my 4850 with some room to spare, wouldn't like to say how much exactly though.

Did you braid the PSU yourself?

These cases are beautiful, wish I had one.

Wow, the overall judgement on these cases seems very positive. Contemplating putting my order in I just need to decide between this or a modded Apple Powermac case.

My best mate Tim got this case from ocuk and I was very impressed with his fractal design R2 case. Very cooling and excellent with his H50 corsair pushing the air upwards on his 120mm top fan. And very quiet indeed. U can't hear any sound.

You did the right thing of purchase it. Good luck!

Thanks. I'm sure I'll love it. I must say that the thing I like the most is the 8 hard drive bays. Definately a huge plus.

macfanuk - what cpu chip, cpu cooler, graphic card and power supply you got may I ask ?

I'm buying the remainder of my build this week but I currently have a Gigabyte GA-P55-UD5 Motherboard, 4GB DDR3 Ram, 64GB C300 SSD, 2 x 1TB Samsung F3's, 1GB Geforce 9800GT and an OCZ 850W PSU. I'm hoping to get the Core i5 760 and a Corsair H50.

i5 760 with H50 is a good buy for your case. Make sure your H50 point upward to your 120mm top fan as a push pull to the exhaust (push hot air out) for better cooling temperature.

I just noticed that but the only company listing them on their site says they're not available til late august (so probably early september).

Here's my one. Spot the difference anyone.

What did you use to colour the brackets? spray paint?
