Fractal Design Shows off Arc XL and Arc Mini R2 Cases At Computex
Fractal is one of those companies that while their cases aren’t as flashy as say the Thermaltake Level 10 in style but they are just as useful for anyone from the beginner to enthusiast PC builders. Well Fractal gave us a treat with three cases that they are showing off at Computex. Fractal Design showed off three different cases for three different types of builds. Fractal has won many awards for their different chassis they have built and marketed over the years and these three cases look to be more of the same in respect to their award winning ways.
One more thing to note is all of these cases will support 240 mm radiators and 360 mm radiators.

Fractal Design Arc Mini R2
The Arc Mini R2 is just as the title says. It is the smallest of the three that Fractal released but does support some interesting features even for its small size. Fractal was very nice to put out a full spec list on each of these cases. The biggest thing about the Arc Mini R2 is that it can fit decent cooling and gives you enough room to build something mid grade or possibly more depending on the components.

From this picture you get a good full view of how the inside can be arranged for maximum cooling and performance.

If you do not need the optical drive bay, this case and the other two will fit a 360 mm radiator or you can bolt on a 240 mm radiator instead.

A full size 240 mm radiator can fit in the front for more cooling versatility.

A neat feature Fractal put in these cases is hiding two SSD mounts behind the case.

Looking over all three of these cases you can tell Fractal put some series thought and effort into making three different cases that in certain aspects are all correct. As I said in the beginning these cases give basically anyone looking to build a PC an option off the same Arc series. The Arc XL obviously is bigger can gives more options but just the fact you are able to fit large radiators in a mini case then I give my hats off to them.
