Review on Fractal FBA_FD CA NODE 202 BK Design Node 202 by Virot Wrintharawet ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

The overall impression is an excellent case, and taking into account the fact that the penultimate one is in d . s, and the fact that they are discontinued, it is doubly pleasant that I took it, although I also doubted it. When assembling, I did not have any jambs with screws, with ribs, with cuts for a video card and with dust filters - everything fell into place like a glove, without distortions and jambs. But! For me, it was a complete surprise that the riser did not support the PCI 4.0 protocol. And besides, it is not on sale in Hong Kong time. I ordered it from a tea house, we are waiting) Well, at least in the BIOS there is a setting for translation into 3.0. Another point is a dust filter for the processor, I had to , I could not install it from the box without modification. My config that I could install everything without problems with the place: intel 12700k, z690i gigabyte, m2 sams, rtx3070, hdd 2.5, ssd2.5, 850wt sdx, id cool is60, 2 - id cool 120 * 15, + 1 extra per percent - 80*80*10mm. In tests, the temp is 60C, video 70C. I really wanted to shove another 3.5 "hdd, but no way . If only the wires were cut from the PSU.

Pros
  • First of all, of course, the dimensions of the case, it is really very compact and convenient, you can put it on the table and under the table, and in the kitchen, and on the shelf. Secondly, a rich package, spare parts and screws, cable ties, packaging with foam and separate boxes for small parts. Everything seems to be simple, but lately it’s been nonsense, now they save on everything, even on penny screws and ties.
Cons
  • Really stupid fastening of the power cord from the PSU. Right there in the case there is a place for installing fans for a video card, why not initially provide for an output without these dances? Well, the riser, not only is the designer of 2 parts and 3 screws, but also a jamb with the PCI 3.0 protocol.
