Rear: 1 - 120mm fan slots (included is 1 hydraulic bearing 120mm Silent Series R2 fan, 1000 RPM speed).Rear: 1 - 120/140mm fan (included is a hydraulic bearing 120mm Silent Series R2 fan, 1000 RPM speed).Front: 4 – 120mm fans (included is one hydraulic bearing 120mm Silent Series R2 fan, 1000 RPM speed).Package dimensions (WxHxD): 370 x 468 x 412 mm.Case dimensions (WxHxD): 344 x 307 x 389 mm.Graphics cards up to 290 mm in length may be installed if a fan is installed in the lower position in the front. Graphics card compatibility: Graphics cards up to 320mm in length.PSU compatibility: ATX PSUs up to 260 mm deep.Filtered fan slots in front, top and bottom.10 - Fan positions (3 x 120mm Silent Series R2 fans included).1 additional space in the front for Slot-In ODD.2 - Extra positions for either 3,5? or 2,5? drives.Micro ATX and Mini ITX motherboard compatibility.The flexibility of this case really gives the users the possibility to create their optimal system build. The case comes with three excellent 120mm fans but can be upgraded with several additional fans if needed.įeaturing plenty of options for placing water cooling components, tall heat sinks and hard drives. The dual chamber layout separates hot running components from the cooler ones and allows for unrestricted airflow over the motherboard, processor and graphics card. It's surprising that more manufacturers don't at least add a slimline drive option but as it stands, the Node 304 has no external expansion.The Node 804 is a micro ATX chassis which focuses on cooling performance and maximum configurability, all packed in an interesting new form factor with Scandinavian elegant design. This may put some of you off at a stroke thankfully if you're keen on having an element of fan control in the equation, the Node 304 has a switch-type controller at the rear of the case, although you're obviously stuck if you're looking for a home for an optical drive or fan controller. What you see is what you get as far as external drive bays are concerned - zero. The power button, two USB 3 ports and mini-jacks are located at the side too. This allows the motherboard to have free-reign at the back, giving it ample headroom to take tall CPU coolers. The rear of the case is strangely devoid of a PSU mount - the PSU is located at the front of the case with a right-angled power adaptor routing the power cable to the rear of the case. The vents in the side panels allow for the PSU and graphics card (located either side) to draw in (graphics card) or vent (PSU) air through the side panels. And with a history of interesting and edgy cases, Fractal Design is also delving into the fray with the Node 304.

The point is, that if you want a very small PC that's just as powerful and overclockable as a micro-ATX or full-size system, you're now spoiled for choice when it comes to hardware.Ĭase manufacturers have been quick to capitalise on this expanding market, and we've seen some interesting cases in the form of BitFenix's Prodigy and Cooler Master's Elite 120. Cramming all the needed power circuitry into such a small motherboard is still an expensive bushiness - Asus' P8Z77-I Deluxe for example, which sports the most power phases of any Z77 mini-ITX board yet, costs around £150. It's the first time that so many big guns have taken the mini-ITX enthusiast market seriously on a single CPU socket, although much of this is likely due to the low power requirements of Intel's latest CPUs - TIM issues aside, Ivy Bridge is very power efficient indeed. There are plenty of pre-release board shots in the wild already. So far, that includes Zotac, Asus and ASRock (see our reviews of the latter two here), with Gigabyte, EVGA and MSI soon to follow suit. Practically every major motherboard manufacturer will have a Z77 mini-ITX enthusiast motherboard on sale before the end of the year. We've certainly taken an interest in the small form factor side of things recently here, and for good reason.
