These purchases directly fund our operation, including our build-out of the hemi-anechoic chamber for our acoustic testing! As part of our RGB series of gaming PCs this unit comes with a fully controllable RGB lighting system which allows you to change the colour of your fans and LED strips with nearly infinite variations, all from the convenience of a remote control unit. While it’s a nice inclusion, I feel that more people interested in an enclosure like this will be using the Terra with a full size GPU and one of the better, low profile CPU coolers. Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page. At 77mm of CPU cooler clearance, coolers like the Noctua NH-L9x65 would fit at 65mm or the DeepCool AN600 at 67mm (which is what we used).

Enjoy an impactful and organised experience, complete with the option to install a GPU of up to 322 mm length within a compact 10. Given that the 4070 FE doesn’t totally line-up with the PSU in the Terra, this would likely matter even more with a larger or longer card like a 4080 FE or Gigabyte Aero, and less so with a traditional non-flow-through card like an RX 7900 XT. With cues from modern gamer homes, it features robust anodized aluminium panels, detailed CNC-milled touches, and solid walnut, bringing together both function and artistry.

There was actually enough space to easily re-plug in the power button connector for the front panel after I had accidently pulled it loose at one point. Those concerns I just spoke of (difficulties of getting a full system into such a small enclosure) were completely unwarranted.thick steel “spine” -- for reference, a lot of ATX case motherboard trays max-out at 1mm -- so the structural support is definitely present. Corsair SF750 is probably the most popular SFX PSU available and not only is it very good but has much nicer braided cables. Fractal Design Terra Jade - Wood Walnut front panel - Small form factor - mITX gaming case - PCIe 4. Gently slide the top panel using the built-in tab, then effortlessly lift off the completely detachable side panels to conveniently access the internal components. One of the benefits to this is that it allows some of the larger GPUs currently on the market, provided you can use a shorter cooler on the CPU.

So of course you have to use an mITX mainboard and the power supply unit can only be an SFX/SFX-L model with a maximum length of 130 mm. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. The movable spine means that GPU and CPU cooler clearances are variable based on spine position, enabling sacrificing space for one to give to the other. Our 13600KF and RTX 4070 weren’t really held back, but ultra high-end choices like a 4090 or 13900K would force you into skimping on cooling somewhere and making an imbalanced build. One of the most interesting design features of the Terra is the adjustable positioning of the inner chassis of the enclosure.riser cable and a moveable central spine for customisation of hardware clearance, accommodating GPUs up to 322mm. I will point out that if you are building an ITX system, I highly recommend connecting the 8 pin EPS power connector and installing the CPU cooler prior to installing the motherboard. I was still a bit concerned about the difficulties of getting a full system into such a small enclosure. Fractal could have made this a little better by having the PSU bracket mount just a little higher within the chassis.
