Difficult installing motherboard standoffs
Cable management is challenging
A tad more expensive than other mini-ITX cases out there
No reset button
Modular PSUs won't work in combination with a long GPU
Watch the length of the PSU
Especially if you want to install a long GPU
No external drive bay
Motherboard standoffs are quite hard to install correctly
Modular power supplies will not work with longer graphics cards
No 5.25-inch drive bays
Have to cherrypick a PSU if building a highend gaming rig
Must choose between fulllength GPU and six HDDs
Cable management always a struggle
Odd shape for an HTPC (Hard to place with other home theater components)
Dużo miejsca w małej obudowie, Wysoka jakość wykonania, Elegancki design, Trzy wentylatory w komplecie, Miejsce na zasilacz ATX, sześć dysków i wysoki cooler CPU, Filtry przeciwkurzowe, Regulator obrotów wentylatorów
Brak przycisku Reset, Brak zatoki zewnętrznej 5,25 cala
NODE 304, to obudowa bardzo niepozorna, która z zewnątrz wydaje się być kolejną, przeciętną konstrukcją dla HTPC, jednak po bliższych oględzinach i zajrzeniu do środka, okazuje się, że jest to model niezwykle funkcjonalny. Przede wszystkim trzeba podkreśl...
Node 304 od Fractal Designu nás príjemne prekvapila. Ide konečne o malú skrinku, ktorá zhltne s prehľadom i dospelé komponenty. Osadiť môžete high-endovú grafickú kartu, rovnako tak výkonný procesor s poriadnym chladičom podľa vlastného gusta. K tomu máte...
Sıvı soğutma desteği, Şık tasarım, 6 disk desteği, 3 ayrı mazgalda toz filtresi, Yüksek malzeme kalitesi
Parça seçiminde dikkat gerekli
Ekran kartı ve güç kaynağı seçimi konusunda dikkat gerektirse de dosya sunucusundan oyun PC'sine kadar farklı profillerdeki PC'lere ev sahipliği yapabilen ve İsveç'te tasarlanan Fractal Design Node 304, sade fakat etkili yapısıyla gerek estetik gerekse te...

kvalita spracovania a pevná konštrukcia, na nízkych otáčkach tichučká prevádzka pri zachovaní slušného chladiaceho výkonu, chladiaci výkon s ventilátormi na maximálnych otáčkach, regulátor troch ventilátorov je súčasťou zostavy, 3 kvalitné ventilát
manažment kabeláže, na ITX väčšie rozmery (čiastočne kompenzované diskovými kapacitami a podporou štandardného ATX zdroja), chýba tlačidlo reset, žiadna pozícia pre optickú mechaniku, hlučná prevádzka s ventilátormi na 12v, horší prístup k prachov
Dnes sme si predstavili ďalšiu skrinku čoraz viac obľúbeného formátu - ITX. Vyrába ju švédsky Fractal Design, ktorý už aké/také skúsenosti v tejto oblasti má - (objem ~17,5l). Kým Array R2 staval výsostne do pozície NAS servera, tak Node 304 predurčil...
