Description
The Fractal Design Define R5 is the next evolution in the widely popular Define Series. Packed with intelligently designed enthusiast-oriented features delivering a silent case with powerful and expansive air and liquid cooling support, presented in a stunning Scandinavian inspired construction.

The Define R5 case reaches the highest level of silent computing through strategically placed dense sound-absorbing material, ModuVent™ fan vent covers and finely tuned Dynamic Series fans.

The Define R5 was designed with configurability in mind, accommodating up to 8 hard drives and all modern graphics card. Should you wish to expand your system with water cooling components or more fans the layout can easily be configured to meet your demand.
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.

The dual chamber layout separates hot running components from the cooler ones and allows for unrestricted airflow over the motherboard, processor and graphics card.

The case comes with three excellent 120mm fans but can be upgraded with several additional fans if needed.
Featuring plenty of options for placing water cooling components, tall heat sinks and hard drives.
The flexibility of this case really gives the users the possibility to create their optimal system build.
EXCEPTIONALLY SILENT AND FUNCTIONAL
Pure Base 600 offers a great deal of functionality and features for an attractive price.

HIGHLY VERSATILE CONSTRUCTION
Maximum of possibilities for your desired system
Pure Base 600 offers many possibilities for system component selection. The 3 HDD slots can be repositioned to allow installation of the largest of graphics cards and the ODD cage is removable for maximum flexibility of water cooling and drives.

OPTIMIZED FOR RADIATORS
Full choice for water cooling
Pure Base 600 was optimized to be the perfect case for liquid cooling. 3 areas are specially designed to allow them to be added: front, top and rear. All sizes of radiator up to 360mm are possible.

ADJUSTABLE TOP COVER VENT
Ingenious concept for water cooling and silence
The Pure Base 600 top cover is adjustable allowing choice between boosting your system’s cooling or silence. You can close it for more silence, open it partially for more exhaust or leave it open to mount a water cooling radiator.

PRE-INSTALLED PURE WINGS 2 FANS
Whisper-quiet operation – typical for be quiet!
2 pre-installed Pure Wings 2 fans with 9 airflow-optimized fan blades reduce turbulence and increase air pressure: 120mm at the rear, 140mm at the front. Permits up to four additional cooling fans.

KEEP THE SYSTEM SUPER SILENT
Equipped with smart and effective silence features
Integrated 3-step fan controller supports 3 fans. Sound insulating material on top, side and front that dampens vibration. Filters at front and bottom prevent the dust to come into the case.
Meshify strikes an aggressive pose in the Fractal Design lineup with unparalleled cooling performance and a defiant new look. Like black diamond facets, the angular asymmetry of the Meshify C carves a space uniquely its own as a new force in high-airflow design. Tempered glass with a distinctive tint completes the stealth-inspired black-on-black aesthetic with exceptional style.

An open ATX layout with intelligent space utilization creates an unrestricted airflow path from the mesh front intakes directly through key components to exhaust, ensuring heat is never an issue. The Meshify C has a remarkably compact footprint with the high-end component support of a larger tower, and with seven fan mounts and multi-radiator liquid cooling capability, it has the cooling capacity to match.

When performance is top priority and compromise is not an option, Meshify has you covered in style.

EXCELLENT SILENCE AND USABILITY

Features such as a PSU shroud and diverse cable management possibilities offer a neatly structured interior and underline the user-friendliness of Silent Base cases.

With a targeted combination of sound insulation features and innovative features, Silent Base is a truly superior case ideal for high-end gaming gear and for quiet systems especially.
