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.
EXCELLENT SILENCE AND USABILITY

Silent Base offers the perfect symbiosis of noise prevention and excellent usability, good cooling performance and an extensive capacity for high-end hardware. 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.
The Silencio S600
The Silencio is a silent case that makes no compromises in thermal performance. Sound dampening material surrounds the system build, rubber padding cushions all included fans, and a removable cover shields noise that escapes from the top panel. The Silencio S600 is available with either a tempered glass or a sound-dampened steel side panel.

For demanding systems, the top panel’s Sound Dampening Cover can be removed for increased ventilation. Paired with the front panel’s ventilation, directionally taking in air through the mesh, silence can be accomplished without sacrifice. The subtle ventilation takes in air from three sides of the sound-dampened front door, with the mesh filter aimed toward the bottom for an efficient intake of air.

Sound Dampening Material – Sound dampening material minimizes noise from the pre-installed fans, the power supply, all steel panels, the steel front door, and all storage mounting points for 2.5” and 3.5” drives.

Tempered Glass or Sound-Dampened Steel – The Silencio S600 is available in two versions. Seamless tempered glass to show the system build or sound-dampened steel for optimal noise reduction.

Removable Sound Dampening Cover – The top cover can be removed for increased ventilation or kept in place to reduce noise.

Reversible, Steel Front Door – The sound-dampened, steel front door features a reversible mounting system that is capable of opening in two directions.

SD Card Reader – The I/O Panel features an SD Card Reader for rich connectivity.

Headset Jack – The single 4 pole headset jack features both audio and microphone capabilities simultaneously so that separate jacks are not needed.

Silencio Fans – Two Silencio FP 120mm PWM fans are pre-installed with rubber padding to reduce noise. To connect additional fans, one 4pin 1-to-3 splitter is included.

Graphics Card Support Up To 398mm – Generous clearance space is provided to support the latest graphics cards.
