#noctua #fractaldesign #asuspcdiy - It's been around 18 months since Fractal Design released the North chassis, yet here we are still falling in love time and time again...

Timecodes, though I don't recommend skipping for visual narrative reasons! (Quality headphones or speakers recommended throughout)

The Fractal Design North continues to bridge the gap for gamers seeking a modern aesthetic case which elegantly blends into their home decor, whilst also housing some of the largest gaming hardware as featured in this build.

Around 16 months ago I built a similar system in the white chassis with a liquid cooler but all the while I couldn't help but think how much I'd prefer it with the Noctua cooling combining the huge NH-D15. Needless to say, it really does hit different with awesome room presence and of course exceptionally quiet operation.

Whilst Fractal Design claim the GPU support is less than that of the Strix RTX 4080 / 4090, with a little creativity and manoeuvring it is more than possible. It's worth noting that anything longer than this card simply will not fit at all!

The North chassis will no doubt be remembered for a very long time due to its iconic styling. Whilst I'm CRAVING a North Mini, it's worth noting that North is also available in 'XL' sizing which allows for a 360mm radiator up top too. I didn't choose it for this build as the additional space simply wouldn't be utilised.

This, for me, is the perfect white Fractal North build encompassing those earthy tones, with quiet operation and ease of future upgrades. I absolutely fell in love again....
