Fractal Design Torrent Black Solid Case

Fractal Design Torrent Black Solid is a full tower case aimed at more serious configurations – both gaming and workstations with larger motherboards and graphics cards. The focus here is on airflow and practicality, rather than RGB and windows – the panel is completely solid. You get a huge internal space supporting formats from Mini ITX to Extended ATX, SSI-CEB, and SSI-EEB, plus factory-installed 5 fans. Maximum graphics card size up to 423 mm provides peace of mind for the longest GPUs on the market.

What you get

The case comes ready for serious airflow: it has 2 x 180 mm fans at the front, and 3 x 140 mm at the bottom, a total of 5 included fans, so you can build a high-end machine without buying additional fans from day one. Support for up to 7 x 120/140 mm or 4 x 180 mm total gives you great freedom to adjust airflow according to how hot your CPU and GPU are. The internal space allows for a cooler up to 188 mm in height, so most massive air coolers fit without issue. With up to 423 mm space for graphics cards, you can comfortably use triple-slot and longer GPUs, even in combination with a large front air tunnel. The power supply slot is at the top and supports PSUs up to 230 mm, which simplifies cable management and leaves the bottom of the case free for maximum airflow.

• Full tower form factor supporting ATX, Mini ITX, Micro ATX, Extended ATX, SSI-CEB, and SSI-EEB, allowing for larger motherboards for workstation configurations.
• Total support for up to 7 x 120/140 mm or 4 x 180 mm fans for aggressive and well-directed airflow.
• Factory-installed 5 fans – 2 x 180 mm at the front and 3 x 140 mm at the bottom, so the case is ready for serious cooling out-of-the-box.
• Option for an additional fan at the back – 1 x 120/140 mm, to build a push-pull configuration throughout the case.
• Maximum cooler height 188 mm, allowing for the installation of large air coolers without compromise.
• Support for graphics cards up to 423 mm in length, suitable for the longest modern GPU models.
• Total of 7 expansion slots, sufficient for multi-GPU, capture cards, and other PCIe devices.
• Storage: 2 x 3.5" for HDD and 4 x 2.5" for SSD, covering the needs of more serious systems with a lot of data.
• Top-mounted power supply with support for PSUs up to 230 mm, freeing the bottom for stronger incoming air.
• Convenient front I/O with 1 x USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C, 2 x USB 3.0, and HD Audio for quick access to peripherals and headphones.
• Solid side panel without a window – focus on silence and stability, not on RGB aesthetics.

Who it is suitable for

This case is for you if you are building a powerful gaming or workstation system, and you need serious airflow, a lot of space, and support for large motherboards and GPUs. It is also suitable for people who do not care for a glass window and want a more discreet, solid case. If you are looking for an ultra-compact build or maximum visual show-effect, you are unlikely to find what you are chasing here.

The combination of huge internal volume, five included fans, and rich format support makes Fractal Design Torrent Black Solid a very strong base for a long-term high-end build that remains cool and stable under load.
