Fractal Torrent

ohhh now this was an embarrassing blonde moment sorry bud, didn't pay close enough attention to ur pic from the crusty old tablet was on and incorrectly assumed was a single arctic 120mm rad :facepalm, had the blinkers on with what im tryna do. Meant top mount but having looked at the case in detail now clearly has no top mount support, bummer.

Do remember watching that GN vid ages ago, was excellent

On that topic- you guys actually seen anyone custom top mount with single rad up top in this space here?



Have some WC gear lying around with a chunky single EK Coolstream that needs putting to use, so been leaning towards some basic Torrent modding. But cant find any measurements for that top space. If anyone can measure LxW would be much appreaciated!

Then obv laser drill some holes in top cover (unless there are existing mesh/replaceable top covers anyone knows of? I cant find any)

Obv totally not the case's intent but we all have silly hobbies

 

Interesting to see one of our builds here haha This case definitely looks amazing in white when paired with white components inside.

I saw the picture with the custom cable management back plate in reddit that was posted earlier on this thread, it really takes the case to the next level for clean cable management.

On sale $179 https://www.scorptec.com.au/product/cases/atx/95390-fd-c-tor1c-01 ($50 off)

 

Stonking price for a good case. If I needed a second rig this would probably be the case I'd be going with.

 

Just got done with this one today you guys inspired me to build one. 14700k, power color 7900xtx gpu, aorus x790 motherboard. Would I do it again maybe. The case new in box was $25 so I can’t complain.

$25? From a retailer?

 

I got it in an in person auction. No one bid on it but me

The Torrent excels when you put a chungus air cooler on the cpu and use the 180mm fans in the front to smash positive pressure through the case and exhaust freely out the back.

$25 is a literal steal, nice grab.

 

My temps right now are 32 cpu, 63c gpu. 1440k hard gaming ultra settings. Crazy even with the Nerfed setup The case seems to not care. I think the secret here is that the case is capable of getting this hot air out quickly. But I completely agree with you with the optimal setup, I just couldn’t run it. My problem here was the 7900 XTX being a fatass. Too big and would not fit with the Chungus fans. Then thermaright Who makes the AIO cooler fuced me. The 360 would not fit Because thermal thought it would be a good idea to add another Half inch to each side of the radiator so I had to go with a 240 radiator. Surprise surprise still wouldn’t fit Because of the 7900 XTX. Crazy how a 4090 can fit in this case with no issues. I did try running the radiator on the bottom, but the hoses were too short and stiff and thermalrights awkward hose placements didn’t help.

 

No issues with those temps, enjoy the build!

And yeah fully agree, the success to the case is how easily it exhausts air.
