Fractal Design North Charcoal Black - Wood Walnut front - Mesh side panels - Two 140mm Aspect PWM fans included - Type C USB - ATX Airflow Mid Tower PC Gaming Case

A beautiful case - love the oak slats on the front and the brass detailing on top. It feels very premium. Build quality is great - this is my first non-Corsair case in a long time, and I feel like this is possibly better made - things feel more thought out. Really enjoyed building this PC in the case, had plenty of clearance for all the kit, although the top 240mm radiator was a bit of a squeeze. Great airflow and there's a filter on the front to help reduce dust, but I feel anyone getting the mesh version of this is gonna have a battle on their hands if they have pets. Cable management was easy, although helped by a modular PSU. Noise is low, comparable to my old Corsair case, although the new fans in this build are louder, not to the fault of the case.

I bought a new PC case for my boyfriend for his birthday. His old case was a Corsair cube case a few years old but had a major dust problem as well as snapped panels and I wanted to get him a new one that had great airflow but also be great with dust. He specifically wanted a Fractal case so I settled on this one. I was very drawn by the walnut front panel and I'm happy to say it's solid and very good looking with the satin charcoal powder paint body. The front if the case is mostly open with two included fans mounted pulling air in. This is great for airflow as there's not much stopping air coming in the front. I offered to transfer his system from his old case to his new one and I'm happy to say the Fractal case is great to build a system in and is made quite easy. There is two dedicated SSD mounts and two HDD mounts in the back but I only had access to one HDD space as the PSU was too large. He has three SSDs so one had to float on some cables which is fine. The back of the case where the wires go is quite tight even with good cable tied cables and neatly routed PSU cables; it was somewhat tricky getting the back panel to latch and slide but eventually I got it and there's no panel buldge. The GPU is an ASUS 3070ti, a big card and this case has plenty of space to take it. I myself have a high end Corsair smart case which is triple the price of this case and I have a similar sized card and it only barely fits so props to Fractal for ensuring we can fit our new big cards in these normal sized cases. I really like the golden metal accents like the power button and the feet. It pairs very well and uniquely with the charcoal and walnut. The airflow was great after testing and I gave the case a positive airflow to help with dust. In summary: The North case is a great case slightly above budget range. If you want a nice subtle case with good quality paint and building options/space but only have a small budget, I recommend putting this case at the top end of your budget as it's worth springing for.

I had been debating for some time about whether to get this case for my new build, since it's not particularly cheap. Ultimately I decided to go for it, and I have no regrets. The North is simply beautiful. It's absolutely the prettiest case I've ever worked with and it's a real statement piece that'll fit just as well in a living room as it will in a home office. Those walnut front fins look stunning against the black case, and I'm sure the white case with oak fins will absolutely suit the right space also. The cable management experience has been excellent. My build involved plenty of velcro and cable ties, and there's plenty of anchor points on the hidden side of the case to make cable routing a breeze. There's also lots of cable management channels to ensure that any cables connecting to the motherboard side come out exactly where they are needed, eliminating any slack and keeping things looking very tidy. I got the mesh-sided version due to my aversion to tempered glass, and not really caring too much about looking inside the case at flashy RGB components any more. Therefore, you can't really see too much into the case with that mesh panel, but it gives an added bonus of an optional two fans to bring additional cooling to the motherboard and graphics card. Speaking of which, the case seems plenty spaceous enough for any (non-extended) ATX motherboard and I doubt there are many graphics cards on the market that won't fit inside this thing. My RX 9070 XT certainly seemed fine in there with space to spare for even lengthier cards. As just a chassis, it's a case of bring-your-own-fans, but there are two fans in the front panel, and they're certainly no louder than the CPU cooler and case fans I put in, so no issues there! Lastly, in addition to looking amazing, it all seems very sturdy and well-built too, and I can imagine it'll last for a very long time. Overall this is an amazing case, and I'd say it was worth the money for all of the listed things, and for the smile it brings to just look at it.

I absolutely love the Fractal Design North. The genuine walnut front wood slats completely transform the look of my desk setup, making it look like high-end furniture rather than a flashy gaming rig.Going with the mesh side panel was definitely the right choice. My temperatures are incredible because the case breathes so well, and it comes with an extra side-mounting bracket for even more fans. Building inside it was straightforward with great cable management. If you want a clean, sophisticated, looking PC setup, this is the case to buy.

The Fractal Design North Charcoal Black TG Dark case is absolutely stunning. The walnut wood front panel gives it a unique, premium look that really stands out from typical gaming cases. The tempered glass side panel shows off the build beautifully, making it perfect for a high-end setup. Airflow is excellent right out of the box thanks to the two included 140mm Aspect PWM fans, and there’s plenty of room for additional cooling if you want to go all out with custom fans or liquid cooling. Cable management is clean and straightforward, and the case feels very well-built with quality materials throughout. The inclusion of a USB Type-C port on the front I/O is a nice modern touch too. Overall, this case combines style, function, and airflow perfectly, ideal for showcasing a powerful build like an i9 and RTX 5080 setup. Truly a beautiful and thoughtfully designed case.

great looking case with brilliant build quality and easy to build in and cable manage, only issue are there are a lack of included fans for the price, and the 2 they give you are simply too loud and make this awful harsh noise especially with how open the front of the case is, i’d highly recommend swapping the fans out it’s a night and day difference. the front dust filter is great but it doesn’t have a top one so if u have intake fans there it’s gonna get a bit dusty inside but it’s easy enough to open and clean.

I recently built my PC using the Fractal Design North case, and it’s easily the most beautiful case I’ve ever owned. The combination of natural wood accents with a minimalist metal frame is absolutely stunning—it looks more like furniture than a typical PC case! Pros: Aesthetic: The wood panelling adds a premium, unique look that blends perfectly into my workspace. Build Quality: Everything feels solid and well-made, from the frame to the fine mesh panels. Airflow: Excellent ventilation thanks to the mesh design and spacious interior—my temps have never been better. Easy to Work With: The modular design and cable management options made assembly a breeze. Roomy Interior: Plenty of space for large GPUs and additional cooling options. Cons: Slightly expensive, but you’re paying for the premium materials and design. A bit limited in terms of radiator size if you plan to use custom liquid cooling. Overall, this case is perfect for anyone who wants a high-performance PC build without sacrificing style. It’s a standout piece that looks amazing in any setup!

Great case - easy to build with and looks really good as well. Fits nicely under my desk and nice and quiet with built in fans. No issues at all!

Çok şık var buram buram hava alan bir kasa (ek fan şart) memnun kaldım farklı duruyor. Eğer yanar dönerli oyuncu kasalarından istemiyorsanız tercih edilmeli

Me gusto su diseño muy limpio y estético y me encanto el detalle de madera real de la parte frontal. Es modular y muy facil de armar y desarmar. Tiene espacio para muchos ventiladores y su manual de instrucciones es muy claro. Viene con todos los accesorios necesarios de un gabinete. Me encanto, tengo dos iguales en casa.

Sinceramente ya le había echado el ojo a esta caja desde hace tiempo, es bastante venerada por la comunidad, pero no me esperaba que se convirtiera en mi favorita. El diseño es lo que ves; elegante y minimalista, pero es también es excepcionalmente práctica y modular. Puedes desmontar o abrir la caja en distintas secciones con facilidad, lo cual lo hace una tremenda maravilla para la limpieza y el mantenimiento. Sin embargo, lo que me lo vendió personalmente fue la posibilidad de pedirla con un panel de malla en lugar de cristal templado. También cabe destacar que si seleccionas esta opción, te vendra con una plataforma opcional para anclar más ventiladores al lateral, cosa que la versión de cristal templado no incluye.

Perfecta para los que busquen un tamaño compacto en torre mediana. Buena calidad de materiales, bien acabada, y un diseño peculiar pero muy bonito. El aire fluye perfectamente y es fácil de montar y desmontar Como punto negativo decir que los ventiladores que trae de serie hacen un poco de ruido, yo se los he cambiado por unos Noctua

Llevo con esta caja ya mucho tiempo y la verdad me tiene encantado, es muy fácil de montar, y es muy bonita de diseño. El panel lateral que no es de cristal y transpira aire con ventiladores es para mí ya algo necesario en todas las cajas de pc que tenga. También al panel delantero se le puede sacar para quitarle el polvo más fácilmente sin complicaciones. Es muy buena.
