As I had mentioned before I have reviewed a good number of high-airflow cases over the years and even modded a few chassis designs to increase the airflow. While adding more fans helps to get air into the chassis it is important to know how the air will g...

Fractal Torrent White TG is an interesting case and I can see a lot of potentials as far as Modding goes. What I see here is a large case that has removable panels on each side with clear tempered glass on the side. The bottom front and top bezels of this...

The Torrent adds another high-airflow option to Fractal's lineup, and while they have long been known for the excellent Define cases this is the company behind the Meshify series – so clearly they are no strangers to the power of airflow.I felt a strong S...

I'll be honest; we were sceptical of the Fractal Torrent when it arrived. Surely there was a reason why case manufacturers always mount their PSUs at the bottom of their enclosures? Surely the past decade of case design hasn't been bad enough to utilise s...
