  • Overall, Fractal Designs has a solid case on its hands. What you have on the outside is what Fractal was going for, a sleek, minimalistic design. On the inside you have the ability to fit a full-sized, to a limit of course, video cards, ATX power suppli...

  • Actually would make a great quietrunning file server, HTPC or highend gaming system, Three fans with included fan controller, One of the smallest enclosures that can still fit highend GPUs, Still keeps those highend GPUs cool, Intelligent layout, Fits full size ATX PSUs, Simple, clean and attractive lines, Fits tower CPU coolers,
  • Have to cherrypick a PSU if building a highend gaming rig, Must choose between fulllength GPU and six HDDs, Cable management always a struggle, Odd shape for an HTPC (Hard to place with other home theater components)
  • The Node 304 performs incredibly well for such a small enclosure. I wouldn't hesitate to build a high-end gaming system into this case, with all the heat that such a build commonly produces. During my testing, temperatures stayed well within component...

  • Abstract:  Video Review: The Fractal Design Node 304 Case is tiny, doesn't have a 5.25" drive, but up to six 2.5" or 3.5" drives can be installed. This is a simple, elegant SFF case that would be perfect for a server or if you require a compact mini-ITX/DTX sol...

  • The Fractal Design Node 304 case is quite a versatile performer for use in either an HTPC role or for use as a SFF case.  I especially like the ability to mount a regular ATX PSU (of my choice) in the case vs. the use of TFX power supplies found in simila...

  • Great use of space for such a small chassis, Excellent build quality, Three fans are included, Fan controller switch for all three fans, Space for up to six hard drives, Full ATX PSU will fit - just watch the length, USB 3.0 Cable comes with additional US
  • A tad more expensive than other mini-ITX cases out there, No reset button, Modular PSUs won't work in combination with a long GPU, Watch the length of the PSU, especially if you want to install a long GPU, No external drive bay
  • The Fractal Design Node 304 does not only look good on the outside, but it also makes great use of its space within. It is clearly the evolution of the Array case: it still offers the ability to install loads of hard drives while also giving the user t...

  • Reviewing the Fractal Design Node 304 is actually a somewhat layered experience, which is interesting given the fundamental simplicity of the design. Probably the first angle to attack is its thermal and acoustic performance, and on those fronts I feel Fr...

  • Excellent cost/benefit ratio, Stylish design with aluminum front panel, Support for a regular-sized ATX power supply, Air filter for the front and power supply fans, Air filter on the left panel mesh, Three-speed fan controller, Anti-vibration rings for 3
  • Lack of support for internal optical drives may be a problem for some users, Could come with thumbscrews for the video card, Shop Related Products, Ads by Amazon, ✕, Thank you, This will help us improve your ad experience. We will try not to show you suc
  • The Fractal Design Node 304 is an excellent choice for the user who is building a small form factor (SFF) computer and wants a product with a stylish design, support for regular-sized power supplies, and great features...

  Published: 2012-09-19, review by: Bit-Tech.net

  • The Node 304 really impressed us with its looks, build quality and flexible interior. Its size means that it's far smaller than the BitFenix Prodigy too, and should appeal to those wanting to make a truly tiny but powerful PC. While the removable hard ...

  • Abstract:  We have been planning a Mini-ITX concept build here for about 6 months and there was a little internal debate around the components because we wanted this build to pack some power that would rival our Stryker build . The whole idea was that we wanted as s...

  • Good build quality, Up to six hard drives, Can support standard GPUs and PSUs although not both at once, Fullsize air cooler compatible, Price
  • Care needed when choosing components due to space restraints, Modular PSU is recommended
