“It deserves the innovation award for its bold pursuit of design and some unique functionality”
“It’s great to have attractive and well-performing alternatives like the North”
“The Fractal Design North in our test knows how to convince!”
“Fractal Design North is novel, interesting and a breath of fresh air”
“Fractal Design’s North is a bold move in PC case design with wood accents that work very well in form and function.”
“There are not many cases out there with this type of design, and if there are it is likely they are not going to have the same type of quality you are going to get from Fractal Design”
“Fractal Design continues to turn heads in the chassis space for all the right reasons. The Swedish firm’s designs have managed to alter our perception of the traditional PC case, and the biggest problem for fans of the brand is that there are multiple eye-catching options to choose from. A nice problem to have.”
“The North has excellent airflow, and the idea of having mesh on the side is very appealing to me, especially with the monster coolers on modern GPUs…”
“Visually, the case can fit into almost any modern room, whether black with walnut or white with oak wood. It provides different variants of mounting fans and also storage.”
“The North is modern, elegant and simple, and that’s what we like about it.”
