Fractal has introduced two new versions of its acclaimed Torrent case for users who were hoping to get the base model’s aesthetics and excellent cooling performance in a smaller package. The Torrent Compact and Torrent Nano, which support up to E-ATX and mITX motherboards, respectively, are available beginning today in a range of color variants. They feature a stylish open-front grille and Dynamic PWM or Prisma ARGB PWM fans just like their larger sibling.
Streamlined airflow in new Torrents (Fractal)
Announcing the Torrent Compact and Torrent Nano – two space-efficient PC cases devoted entirely to providing the highest possible air cooling performance of their respective form factors. Much like the base model Torrent, the attention to detail is reflected in everything from the choice of components to the streamlined design inside and out, creating two cases that really reach new heights in the pursuit of ultimate airflow for compact and nano builds.
When it comes to technical innovations, the main standouts include an inspiring layout, an open front grille and two 180 x 38 mm Dynamic PWM / Prisma ARGB PWM fans custom-made to achieve maximum air cooling while maintaining controlled noise levels.
Simply put, the new models are powerhouses that let you enjoy airflow to a degree normally associated with larger cases, making Torrent an excellent choice for air cooling aficionados looking for a compact or nano case.
