The Fractal Design Meshify 2 Compact Lite RGB case test

CPU and GPU cooling tests

There is no let up in the downsizing of cases and it goes on. Now Fractal Design has worked on a simpler version of the Meshify 2 Compact, to which we gave a rare editorial award a while back. The skeleton of the case has remained the same, the materials used have not changed, but in some places, cuts have been made. And in other places, improvements have been added. In our analysis we have looked at the case in the Lite RGB variant.

Fractal Design North XL case test: When bigger is better

We’ve already had one case featuring a wooden front panel. But it might not be “big enough” for someone’s needs, which the XL variant now addresses. Among other things, in this article you will also find tests with two different fan configurations. And also a comparison of cooling with the smaller North Mesh model. And not only with it, we already have a total of 25 other cases in the database for comparison. Read more “Fractal Design North XL case test: When bigger is better” »

Fractal Design Venturi HP-14 PWM: Against vibrations above all

Venturi fans have some of the softest mounting corners. The transmission of vibrations from moving parts further away to anything (case plates, heatsink fins, …) is thus very significantly damped. Compared to other (even more modern Fractal Design models), these fans have more robust blades, which are both thicker and wider, and as a result, higher static pressure is also achieved at comparable speeds.

Fractal Design Flex 2 for free. First to write wins

Since we have no use for the Flex 2 holders from our recent review and also, FD doesn’t want them back, we’re giving them away. To readers who can take advantage of vertical mounting of the graphics card. There are only two available (black and white), so speed is of the essence. The first person to respond to this challenge gets to pick the colour, the second person will be sent the one left if they wish, and the third person in row is already writing late.

  1. Hi!
    My friend is building her first pc and is really struggling with the rgb lights on this exact case. She still has the Sata cable and she doesn’t know where to plug it in… We can’t find any info on this exact case and no one knows how to fix it. Could you tell me how your rgb lights work and where everything is plugged in?
    thanks!

    1. Hello. The SATA cable that she has left over from the case powers the lighting for the fans. She also needs to have the SATA cable (female) coming out of the power supply, where she plugs the one from the case (male). If she has the fans properly wired in series and the first connector comes from the I/O panel, then her fans should already light up. Let me know if your friend has succeeded.
