I purchased this case with one thing in mind. Max airflow. And boy does it ever deliver. I'm on all air cooling and my CPU and GPU stay cool even under heavy load. Even more importantly, the noise level and fan curves I have set make for a near silent experience. I wanted cool and quiet, and I got it. I am only using the two included 180mm and three 140mm fans. No others needed.The case was delightfully easy to build in. Plenty of room for everything, including a 4090. It actually barely fits in my computer desk nook area.The one thing I wish I'd done differently is getting the RGB version. I'm old and I'm boring. And I'm over RGB. So it was a waste of money for me to buy this more expensive version with all the lit up fans and nice window to see it all. That's ... MoreI purchased this case with one thing in mind. Max airflow.

Fractal makes versions of this with no RGB, and no window. I'd buy that one for less money if I had a do-over.But overall - you should totally buy a Fractal Torrent. It's outstanding.

Pro: Looks fantastic. The black case has a slight tint on the glass but its not so dark that you cant see anything inside. My CPU and GPU temps are incredibly low, even hours into gaming. It was super easy to build in. The manual that comes with it spells everything out. The cable ties that come with are in the perfect spots and are plenty big enough for all the thick power cables. Comes with a GPU support bracket to eliminate the sag. Fans are silent and the LED's are really bright. Overall, im extremely impressed. Coming from a Fractal Node 804, the company has made leaps and bounds in their design.Con: Had an issue first time booting. My motherboard is an ASUS TUF X570. Kept boot cycling and couldnt get anything to show up on the screen. I unplugged the Fractal ... MorePro: Looks fantastic.

Not sure what that was, but maybe if your building in it, leave the fan LED's unplugged until you get it going. Also, the top plastic is a fingerprint and dust magnet so be prepared to clean that often.

I've built two machines with this, with the latest being a Threadripper + 2x 3090 NVlink config. Absolute best airflow and easily able to fit 4 slot SLI and other challenging setups. Very quiet with great fans, built in fan hub is a huge plus.Only challenge is cable management, as the back gets very tight. Flat cables work best, and you'll want to plan out your routing. This also won't work well with horizontal oriented coolers like the Ice Giant which need a top exhaust. I use Noctuas exhausting out the back in both of my systems, which works perfectly with the front to back layout the case is designed for. Room for a 140mm rear exhaust is a nice plus too.Note that this seems pricey but it's the RGB model, which isn't listed, and costs a bit more.Highly ... MoreI've built two machines with this, with the latest being a Threadripper + 2x 3090 NVlink config.

I was using an Alienware Aurora R4 that I upgraded last year with an Aorus B550M Motherboard, Ryzen 7 3700x, Aorus DDR4 3200 Ram 16GB, and a Sapphire Nitro 5700XT. Needless to say I loved the classic Alienware case with these massive upgrades BUT, I absolutely hated the fact that there was very limited space for airflow and really couldn't do much more. I have plans to keep the Alienware case and possibly make another build after making some adjustments and removing parts that are unnecessary and give to my brother. Back to my review of the Torrent case. I love that there is so much more room for a complete build with endless possibilities. My temps have dropped to a more comfortable number for both my GPU and CPU. I would highly recommend this case to anyone ... MoreI was using an Alienware Aurora R4 that I upgraded last year with an Aorus B550M Motherboard, Ryzen 7 3700x, Aorus DDR4 3200 Ram 16GB, and a Sapphire Nitro 5700XT.

I love this case. It's a looker and has great airflow and was overall quite easy to build in. I also love the top mounted PSU, its AMAZING to have access to the back of the PSU so easily. Very tight cable management for such a large case. A few more millimeters would go a LONG way. For a case in this price range, it's really disappointing that the LED strip on the PSU shroud was not functioning properly in my unit. It was flickering and the cable for it was very loose. Could not resolve the issue - not for lack of trying. Its also disappointing that the screws came in plastic bags. Fractal could really take some pointers from Phanteks on how to package their products, especially when they are hitting the $200+ price point for a case.

Fractal could really take some pointers from Phanteks on how to package their products, especially when they are hitting the $200+ price point for a case. Positioning of the fan hub is not ideal as most fan power cables will not reach it from the 120/140 exhaust mount at the back of the case. Also very difficult to fit the 180mm fans at the base of the case when using a full size ATX motherboard. 3 eggs. Big room for improvement on a great concept.
Did not want RGB and made the mistake in buying this model. I wish I could return it via mail because I live 2 hours away from Tustin. I don’t have them connected but it’s a lot of loose wires and hard to close the back of the case. Another Con is that both sides had tempered glass. Why would the back side that shows nothing have tempered glass? I thought it was be metal. Otherwise, the case has great airflow. I really like it except that I did not check the model I purchased. The RGB fans are an ugly transparent-white color and would have preferred all black.
Fractal continues to be the best case maker on the market. I absolutely love the top mounted power supply area. The pre-supplied fans are the best I've seen in a case. Taking off side panels is very easy and doesn't feel like you're going to break the glass ever.Cons:#1 The Fans do not have an RGB default. You have to use software supplied by your motherboard. They really should have set the default RGB's to what is used in adverts ( Green / Blue )#2 Cable management is a little tough to pull off correctly. Having all glass side panels makes bad cable management stick out.#3 This case is huge!!
I bought the case for my new 12900K rig. I love it! There is plenty of room inside. I was able to fit a 420mm radiator in the front too (It was a super tight fit but works). My one criticism of the case is that the glass sides just sort of clip on rather than being held in place with screws. Without excellent cable management skills, it will be very hard for most people to get the right side to stay on properly. Regardless though, I would definitely purchase this case again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a case with excellent airflow.
Built my latest PC in this case after checking out a display model and hearing the praise it received from Gamers Nexus. Was able to mount a 420mm Corsair AIO in the front with the 180mm fans moved to the bottom, setup the radiator for push/pull configuration (2 push, 3 pull) and still had enough room to mount a 4090 and do all the cable management. The included cable management straps and backplate design made building a great experience and the airflow through the case is incredible. It may not be as stylish as a Hyte or Lian Li cube, but the thermals are second to none. Worth every penny.
Love the case, bought it a few months ago. Cable management can be a little difficult but once you get it done, it looks great. RGB fans are more expensive but I like the way they look--if not for you, regular fans are available. Have a 4090 in there and it stays cool, in case you want to verify reviewers who claim the case cools well, it does. Can be loud tho, it's got great ventilation which means it won't dull the sounds of fans of under load. Put headphones on our the volume up a little bit and you won't notice.Would've liked a couple more USB slots on top but I make do. Literally only negative in my personal experience.
