    Wunderschnes Gehuse mit fetten 180mm Lftern vorne (wer hat das schon? und viel Platz in die Breite. Kein Lfterauslass oben ist fr mich ein PLUS. Der Lftercontroller der schon eingebaut ist ist auch super. Top Qualitt!

    FUNZIONALIT E DETTAGLI
    Case spettacolare. Ho deciso di cambiare case dopo circa 8/9 anni e la mia scelta ricaduta sul Fractal Torrent compact.
    Case abbastanza capiente, con la possibilit di posizionare ventole nella parte inferiore per far arieggiare meglio la GPU.
    Sono presenti 2 ventole da 180mm sulla parte frontale, che riescono a mandare aria fresca su tutti i componenti del PC.
    I gommini per le porte USB non sono presenti in confezione, gli ho recuperati dal vecchio case.
    Ottimi i materiali con cui costruito.

    Ottimo case

    Alm de muito bonito, prtico e fcil de montar. Um pequeno porm um espao pequeno demais para passagem dos cabos de controle dos LEDs se a placa j estiver instalada. Quem tem mos grandes (meu caso) tem dificuldade de encaixar o cabo no slot e fazer a passagem para a parte de trs. Mas pedi ajuda a minha esposa e ela conseguiu com alguma facilidade. De resto, s alegria. Fica muito bonito na composio da sala.

    Purchase this case if you want 2 180mm fans in a compact case. The cabling is tough but doable for everyone.

    Bonus with having 180mm fans is the ability to run them slower and quieter since they pull more air because of their size.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersCe boitier est bien conu, l’un des meilleurs boitiers airflow, le top aurait gagn tre en mtal plutt qu’en plastique, rien qu’en l’tant la 1re fois j’ai cass une petite patte de fixation :-/

    Le manuel indique de brancher le hub (nexus 9P slim fan hub) sur la prise CPU_FAN ce qui implique que tous les ventilos branchs galement sur le hub ragiront d’aprs la courbe de ventilation du processeur ce qui pourraient induire des nuisances sonores hors rgulation de cette courbe.

    Personnellement j’ai prfr connecter le hub sur une prise sys_fan pour diffrencier les comportements des ventilos de boitiers de celui du CPU. J’aime bien laisser le ventilo du processeur s’exprimer pleine vitesse tandis que je limite ceux du boitier.

    Avec l’ajout de deux ventilateurs 14cm en bas du boitier le flux d’air est trs satisfaisant.

    Les filtres poussires sont trs fin un bon point par contre le systme de fixation de la faade mriterait d’tre revu, les parois gauche et droite se fixent trs simplement tandis que pour la faade il faut tre bien “align” en bas pour pouvoir la replacer correctement.

    Les pieds du boitier sont assez hauts ce qui permet au filtre poussires du bas de ne pas non plus aspirer toute la poussire prsente sur le sol.

    Je suis trs satisfait de ce boitier je le recommande chaudement, manipuler avec prcaution !

    One of the best cases I have ever built in. Beautiful design and well thought out.

    It’s cool. Very cool. I have an aircooled i7 13700k running at a lower temp than an almost identical build sitting right next to it using a water cooler. It really is that good. I love the design, it looks great. I hate the cable management. As other reviews stated, they left very little room on the backside for running cables, while still allowing the magnetized cover to close. It’s bad enough that I might not buy another one, but I have lots of things plugged in. If you don’t have lots of drives and power cables, so less cables, and are an air-cooling aficionado, there’s nothing that compares to the torrent.

    Fantastic case, I absolutely love it. this is the second gaming pc I’ve ever had, but the first I’ve made for myself and I gotta say It was great, I saw a lot of people complaining about cable management but honestly it wasn’t that bad, it’s a bit tight but as long as you take your time it doesn’t take a genius to make it work well.

    As for the sound, it’s definitely not silent, but I guess that’s hard to ask for with those giant fans and how much air they move.

    I love the tempered glass side, did not realize it came on both sides of the case though, which I think is a bit odd

    My biggest gripe with this case is how much plastic it has, the top and front are both made of plastic and I feel like for the price it should be higher grade material. overall 9/10

    Sono rimasto soddisfatto del Torrent Compact e consiglio vivamente questo prodotto.
    Bello, elegante, il prezzo corretto, il pannello frontale stupendo!.
    mi lo spettavo pi ”compact” per me piuttosto grande e mi pare una standard midtower.

    Puoi tranquilamente montare una scheda madre E-ATX capiente lo necesario per ”2 SSD, 6 ventole, 1o2 A-RGB controller, un HDD (pero la gestione dei cavi scomoda all’interno dello scomparto principale, 20mm in pi e sarebbe perfetto ).

    Il HUB ”Nexus 9P Slim fan hub” consente di collegare fino a nove ventole che piuttosto impressionante per un case di queste dimensioni. Mi piace anche la striscia RGB sul vano del alimentatore, gli da quel po ‘ di bagliore al case.
    Bravi Fractal

    + Leise (mit den richtigen Settings)
    + tolle Optik
    + viel Features (Staubfilter, gute Kabelkanle, SteckerBoard fr Lfter/RGB
    + gut Verarbeitet
    + gut Durchdacht (kann einfach und schnell aufgemacht werden

    – wenn der Kabelsalat zu gross wird, hlt das rckseitige Glas nicht. Die Kabel drcken es dann raus. Es wird ja nur reingeklippt nicht geschraubt odr so.
    Aber n bisschen Ordung hilft da
    – die ganze Zeit Fingerabdrcke ufm Glas. naja was willste machen.
    – ich habe eine extra Controller gebraucht um die frontFans zum laufen zu bringen. Das lag aber am motherboard.

    I love this case outside of the cable management issues. Low noise and strong materials. Fans have great airflow and very clean and professional look. My only complaint is if you are building with rgb in mind or anything with more cables the back tends to push out with the limited space and I’d go with the full size. I’d prefer a solid back of plastic or metal but this still looks great.

    Una piccola lamentela : ho dovuto mettere delle ventole dietro e 2 sotto per migliorare le temperature della scheda video, quelle davanti da sole non bastano.
    Comunque ottimo case, unico consiglio aggiungere delle ventole.

    Il cable management nel pannello posteriore un po’ difficoltoso, ma direi che tutto sommato sia un ottimo case.
    L’airflow qualcosa di fenomenale! Con la scheda di comando delle ventole tutto gira quasi sempre al minimo!

    Swapped my pc internals from my other case which was a Corsair. It was way to big I couldn’t put it anywhere so I got this one it’s the perfect size.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersPro:
    – Qualit costruttiva altissima
    – Ventole incluse silenziose con un ottimo airflow
    – temperature interne basse

    Contro:
    – Cable management sacrificato nel retro
    – l’alimentatore tende a scaldarsi e non da usare con alimentatore passivo
    – i cavi stock dell’alimentatore potrebbero non essere sufficienti per fare il giro da sotto alla GPU
    – il led non bellissimo
    – prezzo elevato

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersI have built well over 500 computers. This one was for my wife. I watched and read all the reviews and in my mind those beautiful big 180 mm fans in the front. What could you ask for. I went ahead and purchased the cabinet and I thought that the reviewer’s were wrong about wiring issues. It turns out, they were correct. If you’re an origami expert, you might be able to squeeze it in without any problems I managed to complete my cabinet built, but It was tough to squeeze those wires in so the glass back can close. Some of the other complaints like easy to scratch the top and cheaper plastic materials. I have to agree with. I was a little surprised at the lack of quality that I had anticipated from such a good company. However, it is quiet and it is running quite well, and it does look good. I think I would pick a different cabinet if I did the build over.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersCase is awesome! Had one faulty 180m fan that makes noise. But other than that this case is amazing for cooling and has a lot of prebuilt fan connections in the back to make hook up easy.

    La caja en si es una gozada, con el pc encendido practicamente todo el dia apenas se calienta y se aprecia que sale aire frio. La unica pega que tenemos es que la fuente de alimentacion viene determinada para ponerse arriba y la refrigeracion liquida solo se puede poner abajo o quitando los ventiladores delanteros lo cual le quita la gracia ya que funcionan bastante bien…
    Por lo demas, de momento funciona de 10.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersI have two pretty low level gripes that kept me from giving this 5 stars. The first is if you run an ATX motherboard there is no way to have cables routed below the motherboard for those bottom ports. If I upgrade my motherboard in the future I might choose an mATX to mitigate this issue. The second issue is the lack of cable management space on the back side of the case and the use of a tempered glass panel. A solid panel and even just a few cm more of space and it would completely solve that issue.

    But don’t let those two gripes keep you from getting this case. Everything else is perfect. I have the torrent compact and fit a noctua nh-d15 with both fans and a 120 for exhaust. The two 180s in the front and two 140s in the bottom, and a 3090 founders. I’m getting improved temps over my previous set up with a Meshify C and 240 AIO.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThe airflow is the best I’ve ever had and the built in 180s are quite and move a ton of air. The ONLY gripe I have is that for whatever reason they decided to put glass on both sides making cable management a pai

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersEn primer lugar, ms plstico de lo esperado, la parte superior es plstico blanco y toda la parte delantera es todo plstico.
    Adems, hay mucho menos espacio para los cables en la parte lateral comparado con otras cajas como el nzxt h510.
    La parte positiva es que la caja viene con dos ventiladores frontales grandes, los filtros de polvo presente en el frontal y en la parte inferior de la caja, y dos USB tipo A delanteros junto a un USB tipo c y botn de encendido y reinicio. En la parte frontal la salida de audio y micrfono son puertos separados

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersSo apparently I’ve become a Fractal Designs fanboy. Whatever, sue me.

    I built my last machine on a Fractal Meshify Compact, and then decided I should upgrade to a Threadripper Pro. The Asus Sage motherboard that I’d settled on is EATX, and the Meshify can’t handle that, and this one ostensibly can, so here I am. Alas, I should’ve read the manual and checked actual numbers… EATX isn’t really a standard per se, just something bigger than ATX with the same holes, and that Sage board is bloody huge and about 2mm too wide to fit this case. Drat. So I’m putting the Sage into a full size Torrent and upgrading a friend’s computer into the compact one, and passing the Meshify down to someone else. In other words I like this case so much that even though I can’t use it myself I won’t return it.

    So far all of Fractal’s cases I’ve worked with have been really thoughtfully designed and beautifully manufactured. They’re an absolute joy to build a system in and I would absolutely recommend them to everyone. Honestly I don’t think I’ll use another brand again.

    Just make sure that if you’re using a board larger than regular ATX you double check with the manual to make sure it’ll actually fit before you order one. They don’t make case stretchers and taking a cutoff wheel to your motherboard probably won’t result in a lot of joy.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI had a blast building in this case. My favorite part of this case is the included fan hub in the rear cable management area. Despite the small 22mm space, all of my cables fit.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersUsed in a build w/ a 5900x in an air cooling setup. Temps are fantastic, build looks great. The only bad part of this case is the lack of room to cable manage.
