Classic Fractal Design looks in a new form factor, “Maximum Configurability” not just marketing, Unique, attractive enclosure that uses the splitchamber design to great effect, Able to accommodate a huge variety of builds – and it's microATX!

There are actually several things that I like about the Fractal Design Node 804. First, the black simplistic design is elegant and would blend in easily; the case itself is very sturdy and well-made; it has lots of storage options and several configuratio...

Que dire de ce Node 804 ? Fractal Design a t-il trouver le bon compromis ?Les matériaux utilisés sont toujours de bonne qualité, avec des parties métalliques non coupantes et des grilles mesh magnifiques, bien finies. Le boîtier reste sobre tout en gardan...
