In recent years there has been a big push for case manufacturers to design/manufacture airflow-specific enclosures and while there have been one or two decent models arrive on the market, the vast majority have come with serious compromises in one way or...

Few people need a case this big or expensive. However, if you are will to pay for the privilege, you'll find this case is well suited to any kind of high-end system build. The powerful airflow lends its self well to a workstation or rendering rig, and the...

The Fractal Design Torrent uses a novel design that is vaguely similar to a Corsair Carbide Air 740 from 2016 in the sense you have a large open chamber with all the obstructions removed. The major difference is that Corsair chose a dual chamber design th...
Dual 180mm Fans, Support for Quad 180mm Fans, Allowances for DIY Watercooling, Fan Shroud(s) Included, Top Mounted PSU with Cover Panel, Great Cable Routing, No “Dedicated” Vertical GPU Option, Awesome Front Bezel
Case base seems too narrow allowing case to rock, Vertical GPU insert blocks all expansion slots, Only four USB ports, No combined audio/mic jacks,
As I had mentioned before I have reviewed a good number of high-airflow cases over the years and even modded a few chassis designs to increase the airflow. While adding more fans helps to get air into the chassis it is important to know how the air will g...

Fractal Torrent White TG is an interesting case and I can see a lot of potentials as far as Modding goes. What I see here is a large case that has removable panels on each side with clear tempered glass on the side. The bottom front and top bezels of this...
Great low noise and temperature results, Massive amount of space, Very good airflow, Includes five fans out of the box, Clean windowed panel design, Unique, functional layout, 9-port PWM fan hub included, Can hold up to six hard drives on individual trays

The Fractal Design Torrent with tempered glass and RGB fans has an MSRP of US$230, while any of the non-RGB variants sell for $190 excl. taxes. Great low noise and temperature results Massive amount of space Very good airflow Includes five fans out of th...

The Torrent adds another high-airflow option to Fractal's lineup, and while they have long been known for the excellent Define cases this is the company behind the Meshify series – so clearly they are no strangers to the power of airflow.I felt a strong S...

I'll be honest; we were sceptical of the Fractal Torrent when it arrived. Surely there was a reason why case manufacturers always mount their PSUs at the bottom of their enclosures? Surely the past decade of case design hasn't been bad enough to utilise s...
