Spacious interior for demanding builds
Unleash your build's full potential with the case's generous internal layout. The RC version is designed specifically for ATX and mATX boards with reverse connectors (hidden connector / reverse connector) for the cleanest possible look with no visible cables. The spacious interior provides plenty of room for ambitious configurations with powerful components.
Natural design from real wood
Elevate the aesthetics of your gaming station with the natural look of the Fractal Design North XL case. The front panel, made of real, FSC-certified oak, gives the build a unique Scandinavian character that blends seamlessly into any living space.
Open front for airflow
Natural airflow is ensured by the Fractal Design North XL's open front, combined with a stylishly integrated top mesh grille. This design allows an unrestricted supply of fresh air to the internal components and efficient exhaust of warm air. This keeps your components within safe temperature limits, even under sustained load during intense gaming or rendering.
Ready for high-performance gaming graphics
The North XL RC case accommodates graphics cards up to 413mm long with the front fans mounted, or up to 380mm when a 420mm or 360mm front radiator is installed. There is sufficient space even for massive models like the GeForce RTX 4090 or Radeon RX 7900 XTX.
Fractal Design North offers flexible cooling options
Configure advanced cooling exactly to your needs with the wide radiator support in the North XL RC case. The front can accommodate radiators up to 420mm, while the top supports radiators up to 360mm or 280mm. This flexibility enables complex water-cooling loops to be built for maximum heat dissipation from both the processor and graphics card.
Fans included for an immediate start
Start your build right away with the three pre-installed 140mm Aspect PWM fans in the North XL RC case. These high-quality, pulse-width modulation fans offer an optimal balance between performance and noise, and enable precise speed control according to your current cooling needs. There's no need to buy extra components for a basic cooling configuration.
Easy tool-less access
Building and maintaining your PC with the Fractal Design North XL case is a pleasant and intuitive experience. The side panels slide off, the front panel unclips and swings open, and the top panel removes easily thanks to an integrated tab. This tool-free access saves you time when installing components, cleaning dust filters and upgrading your build later on.
