Fractal's Torrent case is among the best tower cases we've reviewed anytime recently, competing most directly with the Corsair 7000D, Fractal's own Meshify 2 XL, the Phanteks Enthoo Pro 2, the P500A, and maybe Cooler Master's H500 series. The Torrent most closely resembles the old Silverstone Raven RV-02, which is one of our favorite cases of all time. The Torrent does well to follow this up, and is most unique for its huge 180mm fans and full accompaniment of 140mm fans. We're hoping to do a PC build in the Fractal Torrent sometime soon as well, since we actually like it enough to use for a production build for GN. (Yes, a bunch of writers do in fact know what the English word "Torrent" means. We were joking about the file references.)
