Fractal DesignPop XL Silent Tower Black

PERFECT CASE! QUICK DELIVERY

Great airflow for high end pcs especially, lowered maximum cpu temperatures by 10°C on Helldivers 2.There was a screw that was overtightened from the factory preventing me access to the 5.25" bay mounts, one turn and the screw was ruined. Now 5.25" devices are only attached to one mount, making them move when pressed. Very annoying.Otherwise a good case!

I needed to upgrade to a new bigger case and this perfectly suited my needs.

Be warned, you'll need to purchase a either a USBhub that has a USB-c port if you intend to connect any sort of soundcard to this device. Otherwise you'll be purchasing a "d-link cable" off the fractal website which feels like a bit of a $$ grab to me personally. It's a nice case though and fit my rtx4070 just fine.

The build quality is excellent and cable management is decent. The only two complaints I have are that there is no front intake filter and the bottom filter slides out the back instead of side or front.Easily fits a Noctua NH-D15 and 4070ti

Liked the case so much, I got two of them!UPDATE: Finished my build. Was upgrading from an old case, so that took some extra time. The Rear fan was hard to remove and had to pry the tab a bit to remove the wire. The external bays barely fit back in the case without using the provided shallow screws. I am unable to put the bay cove back on due to the levers on my hat swap dives. It was a bit tight in the basement, but was able to hide a lot of the wires good. I really liked the top cable management slot as it made it easier to run wires. If you ae puting an AIO on top, you have to completely wire the mobo ahead of time. I had so many wires on the underside, I was surprised, it was easy to put the side panel back on. This is the best case in recent years for lining uup GPUs and other cards. Normally, I have to pivot the card in order to get good access to the ports. This case was perfect and I didnt have to adjust the card at all. The slotted front and back fans are awesome as you can adjust the airflow by sliding the fans up and down before final tightening. The wider case is amazing and gives a lot of flexibility in wiring and HD placement. The basement is great to hide extra wires. Great air flow as well. I like I was able to put my 240 AIO on top easily,ORIGINAL:Summary: Overall this case is great. No sharp edges and pretty good in the flexibility department. I spent about an hour just reviewing the case to become familiar with it, so I could plan my build. I am very excited to start.Details. I have been building systems for a looong time and am very picky about my components. I also need to have external bays which seem to be harder to come by these days. I like to have my DVD reader/writer and I like to have my platter drives and SSD drives in hot swap bays. This case has 2 bats, I could use a third, but I will make due. I currently have a fractal G which has been great, but the external drives make it hard to put the radiator on top. With this case, I have more flexibility since the case is wider and the bays are at the bottom. There is actually room up top or even in the front. I also have learned to appreciate being able to see inside the case as well as the argb fans. I neve much cared about that, but have frown to like the colors and visibility. Before getting this case, it was difficult to see how the external bays looked as well as if you could see the fans through the front panel. That why I took so many pictures in case anyone else wanted a little bit more clarity. The front mesh is perfect and you will be able to see your fans no problem. The basement of the case is a bit challenging to access, but it doable once you remove both side panels and the front panel. There is a spot in the basement for 2 3.5 drives which you have to remove if you want to use the external bays. However, you can remove both easily and even relocate one of then to the side of the case, since it is wide enough as shown in the pics. There is actually room where they could have allowed both on the side, but didnt. Also, you can just remove the top bracket and install one ODD in the top bay leaving the bottom HDD tray and the little pull out tray in use.I was surprised of the quality of that little tray as it snaps in perfectly. I will be removing the included fans and replacing with my own. I dont even know why they include them. The case easily holds the normal 120s, but also the larger ones. Cable routing seems pretty good and a lot of it can be hidden in the basement especially if you are wiring anything in the external bays. I really like how they decided to use that space for the external drives, it really cleans up the wiring and for people who dont have drives, it doesnt interfere with the look and functionality. Nice clean look with or without ODD. Yes it would be nice if they had the HDD light and reset buttons, but I can live without. I never use the usb or audio functions on the case so I could live without that. I think they should have the reset on there for either resetting or connection to your RGB controller. And I think they should include the little speaker that connects to your mobo. Nice to hear the beeps when it is starting up. The pc speaker used to be part of the case in the old days lol. Great flexibility and a nice clean look. Fractal is becoming my favorite case maker.
