  • To conclude, my experience with the Fractal Arc Midi R2 has been very positive. There are a few areas which I feel are little bit lacking like the build materials. I appreciate the price bracket of this chassis but if Fractal was to bring out something li...

  • A new version of something suggests that things wrong with the old one were fixed, and that other improvements have been made. Fractal Design keeps this promise with its Arc Midi R2. The exterior looks better, in our opinion, with the tinted side window. ...

  • Looking back to our review of the original Arc Midi we remember that the first version of the case was impressive. It offered a nice simple build process, a solid chassis and loads of storage potential while running silent. It was ideal for our home serve...

  • The Arc Midi R2 is a fine example of a case revision done right, as for the most part the upgrades and changes are sensible and functionally beneficial. The easily removable dust filter, extra USB 3.0 port and integrated fan controller, for example, ar...

  • Easy to build into, Modular storage bays, Integrated fan controller, Good cable management, Plenty of room for radiators
  • Not as quiet as the Define R4, SSD mounts aren't user friendly
  • Fractal's developing a habit of refreshing its chassis without serving up significant upgrades or fresh new ideas. Like the award-winning Define series - which currently stands at revision four - the second-generation Arc Midi R2 revisits a tried-and-tru...

  • Le Arc premier du nom était un excellent boitier, mais il avait quelques petits défauts ici et là, que cette nouvelle version vient corriger, tout simplement. Ainsi, on a un mesh et des filtres plus qualitatifs, un rhéobus accessible à l'avant et même ...
