The primary missing feature here, which will feel refreshing for many builders, is the lack of any RGB to light up your system. It's also a pleasure to build in, with good cable management and a $130 MSRP that's quite reasonable in this era of seemingly ever-increasing prices. With just two of the company's F120Q Airflow case fans behind a skeletal frame with a perforated front panel, the NZXT H7 Flow manages to deliver excellent temperature and noise level numbers in our testing, beating or competing well against pricier chassis with more fans and glass panels. We hope Fractal's bold move inspires other case makers to try something different. But if you're after a case that matches the pretty furniture in your living room, has lots of room for storage, and won't break the bank at $130, nothing else comes close to the North. If you don't like the case's looks, then the company's Meshify 2 Compact (below), is probably a better option for you. The glass side panel may help a bit on the noise front, but likely at the cost of at least some thermal performance. Just note that it can get noisy when delivering those temps.
2019 BEST COMPUTER CASE FOR AIRFLOW ATX PC
Available with either a mesh side (as we tested) or tempered glass, and in white with chrome accents on the IO and feet, or black with some seriously pretty brass, this is arguably the prettiest PC case ever produced, period.Īnd thanks to its pair of 140mm fans and an included side bracket (for the mesh model) that can hold another pair of 140mm fans (not included), the North has excellent thermals as well. It's utterly glorious.We aren't sure who asked for a PC case that mixed mid-century modern design (wooden slats and all) and high airflow, but we sure are glad that Fractal Design answered with the excellent North mid-tower. It's a much more expensive case adjusted in small ways to meet the $100 market. It's really good value and is a breeze to build inside. It has to be good to build in as well, and these are.īut if you're happy to push the budget to the max, the Cooler Master Silencio S400 would be a great house for your next PC build. Saving money on one of these great cases will allow you to spend more where it really matters, on what goes inside it.īut in both cases, you still get a high-quality product that looks good on the outside, has plenty of space for a pretty sizeable build inside and has lots of scope for cable management. The sub-$100 market is packed with amazing choices like the Phanteks P360A and Corsair 275R Airflow to name but two.
Getting the best PC case doesn't have to mean spending hundreds of dollars on a case anymore.
