then straight down, and lifted and pulled, more than a person ought to so I could get them under the GPU. I routed mine under the CPU cables to get another few mm's. And the CPU is staying VERYT stable and has not moved into the 80C territory except rarely on a super intensive project (s) on hot days.īe aware that reaching the GPU from the top might be tough depending on your cable length. The components I transferred from another case dropped the MoBo temps down by ten or 15C. So I just need lots and lots of carefree filtered airflow to keep the machine cool as it runs 24/7. But I don't even keep storage in it! It runs on two NVME in the board and sends all renderings to the server. And the diversion of airflow to the MoBO makes for a velocity by the VRM's that I am sur helps wick heat away.Ĭons: Another few mm on the cable management side might be ok. Especially since that's what it processes. It's a rendering workstation machine, but I still like it to look like art. Everything fits snug but not locked hopelessly. Lots of room for a tall cooler, my Dark Rock Pro4 fits with plenty to spare. huge and astounding amount of air pushed out even without an exhaust fan! I am probably going to reuse this case for the rest of my life. Massive respect to Fractal for their support and what they did to fix things regarding the faulty fan hubs with this case. I was one of the first people to get in contact with Fractal about it. I was so happy to get one way early on before this case got popular and the recall happened. Overall Review: This case is a fantastic and well thought out piece of engineering. (harder to mount horizontally because of RAM clearance)Ĭons: I literally can't think of a single thing bad about this case. It's so spacious, even the Noctua NH-D15 heatsink will fit even mounted horizontally. I found it to get around 5° C hotting in my system with an exhaust fan. Such good airflow you don't even need an exhaust. Sticking your hands in there feels like an air conditioner almost. They offer such a pleasant cooling performance.
