@@robeytechcan we fit slim 120 fans under the vga? Cause i use same GPU and i wanna move from nr200p to this case, im using 2x 120mm slim fans under GPU on Nr200p
I love this case, I bought it 8 months ago for a build and kept it for an updated build. It is now rocking a 5800X3D and a 3080Ti. It's probably the only mini ITX case that I would be comfortable with putting this kind of hardware in. It cools so well. For me it's the perfect compromise between size, cooling and features. Just awesome to be able to use a large ATX PSU in a ITX case. I can highly recommend this case.
Honestly this case is everything to me. I hated having such a big case in the past and only used like 25%. The fact you can put a big ass CPU cooler is awesome. I always wanted to build a smaller PC but I don't want to mess with AIO. I can put normal PC parts without any blockage is just 10/10 for me. I love my 2020 g14 but I miss having a desktop. Sold everything when my wife and I were expecting. Now I'm getting the damn itch to build a PC again. Haha thanks.
Old comment, I know. I felt the exact same way about my old case, the H440. Massive case that allowed me to have a 240mm AIO for my cpu, and a 120mm radiator for my 1080. In the Nano, I have a Coolermaster MA620M with a 5600x, and I've thrown two Scythe fans under my 3080 TI. Tight fit, but the massive fan in the front keeps everything so much cooler than I thought.
I have a MSI 3080 TI on order and I'm glad the length is short enough to fit in my Nano. What I'm worried about is not being able to fit 2 x 120mm fans on the bottom. I had a AMD Radeon RX580 in there originally, but the fan blades and shroud were hitting the bottom 120mm fans. I want to max the airflow potential.
Been following you on YT & Twitch for about a year now. I love the well produced & consistent content. Hadn’t built for over 10 years, so you’ve made it easy getting familiar on the latest tech.
Man... This is a great channel! I am thinking about moving my Asus 3090 and 5900x over to this case. I'll have to get a smaller MOBO though. Hopefully we can get more subscribers!!
I have a Mini-ITX gaming rig as well. Ryzen 5 3600XT with 1060 GPU and Noctua NH-U12S chromax Black running in a silver Lian Li TU150. Thermals are OK in my build, but that massive moon fan on this fractal case looks impressive! Great Build! I love the all white aesthetic! This was a really fun, well done review of the case and the build was great!
Watched a few other videos but only your video helped me to make a decision for the case. Thank you, great video, great description and very helpful. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the complete review and build i’ve been looking for a build like this for the fractal nano . And you’ve hit all the questions i’ve been asking . To more subscribers and video to you . Thank you
I love and prefer full tower, but I love the torrent design applied to small form as well in this case. Impressive how the 180 mm fan is able to help the cpu cooler and that the opening on the bottom with filter is able to give sufficient air flow even at 3080 Ti. A real unicorn also for the match color, in addition to the components. Thank you so much for your interesting content!
Nano does not mean a billionth of a metre. It just means a billionth. You can use it with any SI unit. Nanometre. Nanowatt. Nanofarad. Nanolitre. Nothing is stopping you from doing nanoinch, but that would be too easy. I propose the nana prefix. The nanainch is one 1000000129th of an inch.
Awesome and very detailed video! Thanks to you I've realized that the motherboard I've selected for my build doesn't fit to this case. I was thinking about Asus TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI, but it's an ATX standard. So I got to go back to motherboard selection.
This was a helpful review, though I would have liked some information about the possibility of using an sfx power supply because I'm assuming most itx builders will not have an atx one.
Recently built a new pc with a new r9 5900x along with my older 2080ti in an evolv shift xt, but the temps aren't great at all and the noise is overwhelming. I've ordered this case and will be using my 240mm AIO to start with but planning to use a nh-d15 later on with my planned 3090 upgrade.
You got a subscribe!. Can you name a similar case but for the 4000 gen GPUs? For future upgrades? * Air cooling is preferred * This one has everything I wanted but the GPU upgrade is so necessary Am not the type of ppl who likes to waste money on changing cases evey year, nor I have a good budget..
I like everything about this except the exterior aesthetics. It's a bit too bulky overall, they could make it much smaller by just toning down the frame design. I would like to see a version of this with something closer to the Define series look or Meshify exterior.
I just got the same case on Black Friday, I’m having difficulty finding a pcie cable in right length, my is too shot 500mm, could you tell where did you got your cables, even more kinda if you could tell me the length that you used too, that would be really helpful 😊 Thanks in advance !!!
Awesome build, nice and clean! I am curious about a size comparison between three fractal torrent full sized case and the nano though, would be interesting to see.
That case is one of the coolest cases I've seen in awhile. Pity it wasn't available when I did my build last year. I'm curious about if that rear fan really makes a difference when you're using a dual-fan CPU tower cooler like that one in the video...
That exhaust fan probably helps the temps quite a bit if you do a cpu/GPU combined torture test. The 350W 3080ti will cook a CPU in a small case right quick, just ask my 5800x in the NR200 prior to going for rear intake config. Lol
Personally, since I do not move the computer around and like expandability and reusing cases I would go with a Torrent or the Torrent Compact with fewer gotchas during the builds
It's just the BitFenix Prodigy 2.0 with less storage space despite being similar dimensions, regression to (worse) vertical motherboard orientation and usb-C. I'm not saying I don't like it, just pointing out it's not original.
@@fahadal-asmari6893 You literally can not beat the Prodigy's air flow I guarantee it. 180mm and up fans have a big weakness called push distance, and the Prodigy is a much shallower case.

@@fahadal-asmari6893 200mm fans (usually) have both 180mm and 200mm mounting holes, but the 230mms drop the 180mm mounting holes but the frame is still just as big as a 200mm
I am so irritated. I ordered this from Fractal’s Amazon store front which claimed this case would fit my mATX board… states it in multiple places on the items storefront….
Make up your mind, is it a R7-5800x or a R9-5950? In the beginning you said disregard the box that said R7, and that it was a 5950, yet when discussing the temps you say its a 5800x?
Ok, so this guy is trying too hard to be funny. We can all agree with that I think, as we as it being kind of adorable. However... this is the torrent nano video that i needed to see. The breakdown is really nice and cleared up some confusion that i had coming in to the video very well. It's amazing... some of the biggest tech youtuber glossed over so much of this case in terms of coming at it from a user perspective. Even Gamer's Nexus only did the compact and the full tower which blows my mind even today. Thanks Robey.

Great video. I decided to purchase nano and waiting to be deliver😁
Watched a few other videos but only your video helped me to make a decision for the case. Thank you, great video, great description and very helpful. Keep up the great work!
Based on your review in went to a black nano RGB (because rgb = more fps) and a 12600K with BIOSTAR B660GTN motherboard. Thanks for the help !

Beautiful build!
This makes me want to build a Torrent Nano.
I thought you were using the ryzen 5900X? But all the test were with the 5800X.
Great, I'll look into this one. So far I already have the 700m, BQ 802, just recently the 700m. On my channel. Maybe, I'll have room for one more.
ive seen you do so many AIOs that the thermal right seems so odd filling up the case like it does. Great setup though!

Hi, tell me what the temperatures are in this case. How hot is the video card?
Not sure why there isn't a vented side panel option.

Great video. Content and production 💪🏻.

Ignore what the box says this is a Ryzen 9 5900X okay . . . later on Ryzen 9 5800X lmao xD
Saw you out a rubber “ leg “ at the end bottom of the gpu were can i get one ? Thanks for the informative video
Great video, I just purchased this case. Is there room for 2 140mm fans at the bottom? I have a 3080 Founders edition.
Loved it before and still like it.
Hey did you managed to close tempered glass panel? That cpu cooler is 160mm tall. This case takes up to 150mm cpu coolers.
Hey, I know some time has passed, but I have a TUF 3070. Would normal 120 or 140 fans fit under the it or would I have to buy slim fans?
That case is one of the coolest cases I've seen in awhile. Pity it wasn't available when I did my build last year. I'm curious about if that rear fan really makes a difference when you're using a dual-fan CPU tower cooler like that one in the video...

Sick and slick lets go
I’m using this cooler and it sounds like a jet engine about to take off, any suggestions?
I am so irritated. I ordered this from Fractal’s Amazon store front which claimed this case would fit my mATX board… states it in multiple places on the items storefront….
What's the Point?
I though you had 100x the subscribers lol. Great review.
Water cooling in this case is like trying to eat soup with a fork lol. I totally agree it should be air cooled 100%.
About $89.99 today for the black fan version. Problem is that it is too big for a real ITX build.
Make up your mind, is it a R7-5800x or a R9-5950? In the beginning you said disregard the box that said R7, and that it was a 5950, yet when discussing the temps you say its a 5800x?
Grumpy baby
Does the PowerColor Red Devil AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX fit in this case? I'm choosing between this case and the Lian Li O11 Air Mini.
You can fit a Sapphire 7900 XT Nitro+ if you cut the bottom out (the dust filter can still be installed)
Moon size fan !!
A quote from Tommy Boy deserves an instant Like from me! Great delivery!
Wish the white version's fan mounting brackets were white as well.
I hate that for some reason the white doesn't have an RGB option
14:50 Isn't Master Liquid a Cooler Master product line?
Its big for a small case.. zero RGB also great.. to bad it does not have a 5,25 slot for a blueray or dvd player.. for a all around media setup..
What case fan is that? For the rear exhaust
Better get custom sized cables so the cable management is cleaner.
I show extensions because it’s worse case. Of course it’s easier with custom cables but also a lot or expensive
why would I choose non-rgb? wiring. I just need it to be small and efficient.
Any way to get any sort of water cooling in there at all?
I want this so bad.
ooooo, an onlyfans. Robey will be selling his used AIO water next.
I like the size, room for an atx PSU but no provisions for a micro atx motherboard? That's not cool
how was the noise at load?
excelent!!
No temperature comparison chart to its rivals sucks.
would anyone with a 2 slot gpu bother with bottom mounted fans?
How much tick can be a gpu to fit in this case?
You can fit a Sapphire 7900 XT Nitro+ if you cut the bottom out (the dust filter can still be installed)
ASUS managed to make the new 40 series ROG Strix cards, longer. Now they don't fit in this.
What i think? Tell you next week when i help a friend to build the 5950x+3060 inside it ;-) - compact workstation with 3x 4K screens for work.
That all white build with the black fan at the front annoys me. There has to be a 180mm white fan you can buy to replace that fan.
