Hi all!

I’ve recently bought new components for my pc but i miss calculated what would fit in my current case (by about one or two millimeters). I have the arctix liquid freezer iii 280 which doesn’t fit in my current corsair crystal 570x. The problem was that the ram didn’t fit on the mb because it hit the fans below the radiator (top mounted).

I’ve looked into the fractal cases and the torrent seems the best bet but it also looks like it was designed for air cooling and putting the 280 radiator in the front defeats the purpose. I’ve also considered the North XL but im unsure if everything will fit with the top mount. I’m looking at Fractal cause i saw good reviews from GN but i’m open to everything!! (If it has a white variant even better:))

I previously researched and thought everything would fit so i kinda lost some faith in myself regarding this.

Any suggestions are welcome,

Thank you so muuch!!

    I have the Fractal Design Define 7 and like it a lot. There are several different size options and their website has all the measurements you will need to be able to determine if your components will fit.

      My last three builds were all using Fractal Design Define series cases (R4, R6 and Nano S) and they’re silent, have great dust protection and are easy build in.
