For this review, we received the Torrent Compact with RGB in black and the lightly tinted glass panel. While that worked well enough we think we may have made a mistake, not least because there is a fair amount of steel in the floor of the case that obscures those huge 180mm 1,200rpm fans. Fan mounts: 3x 120mm, 2x 140mm or 2x 180mm front, 3x 120mm, 2x 140mm or 2x 180mm front, 1x 120mm rear.

ports, one USB Type-C port, discrete headphone and mic jacks, along with power and reset switches – all quite standard, though fairly complete. As for the sound, it's definitely not silent, but I guess that's hard to ask for with those giant fans and how much air they move.

support to an already long list of benefits like whisper-quiet operation, enhanced cable flexibility and superior output quality. Selbst bei Cyberpunkt 2077 mit vollen Details auf einer 4070 Ti und einem Ryzen 7700 ist der Rechner mit diesen Einstellungen praktisch nicht zu hören und die Temperaturen sind stabil. Einen offensichtlichen Nachteil hat der Tower natürlich: Es kann ohne Lüftersteuerung laut werden, da er sehr offen ist. The reverse end is where the magic happens, offering all the cable management utilities and space for up to two 3.

But since the original Torrent was tested on our previous testbed (with an Intel Core i9-9900K and an RTX 2070 Super), not our new i7/ RTX 3070 Ti setup, this isn’t meant as a direct comparison. Simply put, the new models are powerhouses that let you enjoy airflow to a degree normally associated with larger cases, making Torrent an excellent choice for air cooling aficionados looking for a compact or nano case.

Below is what Fractal had to say about their Ion 2 Platinum series power supplies in a recent press release. But despite its smaller footprint, the Torrent Compact comes with two epic 180 mm aRGB fans in the front. Inside the box, you’ll find the accessories kit and the Torrent Compact tucked away inside hard Styrofoam shells. Alles in allem ein großartiger Tower, der sehr gut kühlt und optisch viel her macht - egal ob schwarz oder weiß. The side panels on the Torrent Compact are held on via magnets that do a good job when your system is stationary.

Much like the base model Torrent, the attention to detail is reflected in everything from the choice of components to the streamlined design inside and out, creating two cases that really reach new heights in the pursuit of ultimate airflow for compact and nano builds. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data.All-core temp remained steady at 60°C and the accompanying Sapphire Radeon RX 580 graphics card reached 71°C when gaming. L'emplacement de l'alimentation est un peu déroutant et fait que le centre de gravité est assez haut. Modders-Inc is all about PC case modding, PC hardware reviews, technology news, and PC-related articles.

The thing is, as you’ll see next in our thermal tests, there’s no need to turn the fans up that high. If you don't have lots of drives and power cables, so less cables, and are an air-cooling aficionado, there's nothing that compares to the torrent. Alongside their new Torrent case, Fractal has released an update for their existing Ion Platinum series of power supplies.Announcing the Torrent Compact and Torrent Nano – two space-efficient PC cases devoted entirely to providing the highest possible air cooling performance of their respective form factors. To put this case through its cooling paces we will be using a test system consisting of an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, Sapphire RX 6800 XT 16GB and an SSD.
