The Best Full Tower PC Cases

Three 140mm Aspect fans come fitted, and a 360mm radiator can go on top at the same time as the front one. With that 420mm front radiator installed, GPU room drops to 380mm. It takes E-ATX, ATX, mATX and mITX boards, with wood and alloy details on the front.

It matches the Flux Pro, the 7000D Airflow and the NV9 MKII on largest radiator size (420mm). GPU limit in the North XL: 413mm, before front fans. The North XL takes 420mm radiators; mind RAM height. It was priced above the Flux Pro and below the NV9 MKII at the time of writing.

Two reverse fans sit on the PSU shroud to feed the graphics card, and a display shows CPU and GPU temperatures. The power supply mounts rotated 90 degrees, and the case takes E-ATX boards. It mixes metal, glass and wood, and removable brackets on the top, front and shroud make radiators easier to fit.

It matches the North XL, the 7000D Airflow and the NV9 MKII on largest radiator size (420mm). It is the only pick here with E-ATX motherboards; the Torrent has up to SSI-EEB and SSI-CEB motherboards instead. Confirm GPU length for the Flux Pro with its maker.

Boards: E-ATX. No other pick here cost less at our last price check, and the North XL was closest. What it gives up: largest radiator size of 420mm, behind the 9000D (480mm); by contrast, the 9000D comes in at 480mm.

Three 140mm fans and a PWM repeater are included, and 30mm behind the tray eases cable work. A hinged front door gives access to the intake filters, and the interior takes up to twelve 120mm or seven 140mm fans. RapidRoute channels guide cables through one hidden path with 30mm of space behind the tray, and the steel mesh front feeds airflow.

It matches the North XL, the Flux Pro and the NV9 MKII on largest radiator size (420mm). Confirm GPU length for the 7000D Airflow with its maker. The 7000D Airflow takes 420mm radiators; mind RAM height. It was priced above the NV9 MKII and below the Torrent at the time of writing.

It takes boards up to SSI-EEB, and this version has a solid side panel. Fractal lists the fan positions as movable, so the layout can change with the build. It suits an air-cooled workstation more than a showcase.

Up to SSI-EEB and SSI-CEB motherboards is unique to it among these picks, while the Flux Pro uses E-ATX motherboards. Confirm GPU length for the Torrent with its maker. On price it sat fifth of 6, between the cheaper 7000D Airflow and the pricier 9000D, at the time of writing. The maker doesn't give its largest radiator size; if that figure matters, the 9000D comes in at 480mm.

It has 420mm and 280mm radiator mounts and 65mm of bottom intake clearance. D-RGB lighting surrounds the motherboard, a GPU bracket prevents sag, and it supports rear-connector boards for a cable-free front.

It is the case for dual-loop builds that nothing smaller can hold, with further radiator mounts of 360mm on the side and 240mm at the rear. The maker doesn't state an included fan count, so budget for fans on top of the case price. Nothing else here matches its 480mm largest radiator size; the North XL comes closest at 420mm.

It also offers an aluminium InfiniRail fan mount. Confirm GPU length for the 9000D with its maker. The 9000D takes 480mm radiators; mind RAM height. Only the Torrent came close to it on price at the time of writing; it cost the most of the 6 picks.
