Beautiful case with wooden panels on the front to go with a more modern interior decoration style. Perfect case for any air cool build. Easy to build in with plenty of room for cable management. Even more room if you remove the 2 hard drive cages behind the PSU. Keeps my 9800x3d nice and cool. I picked a terrible time to build a new computer in regards to GPU shortages though... If I could only get my hands on the GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX™ 5090 MASTER ICE 32G! That beautiful white GPU would compliment this case wonderfully! My only con with this case is I wish the front panel could be moved to the side instead of the top. That's just my personal preference though. Still a fantastic case all around.

An expensive but elegant and well-designed case. The engineering of the product is evident, especially in the temperature and airflow. It's a bit heavy because it's pure metal and the wood is real. I sanded the wood and stained it in my favorite color.

Overall great form factor. Easy to install and remove. But cannot screw in fans at the bottom and had to use zip ties.

Easy build. Very beautiful case. Fits little legos in it too and the free fans are nice

Such a beautiful thought out design. Love the look and simplicity.

The build quality and the case are great. The only issue is that if should have been white inside the case if the outside was white not sure what was the design thinking there. Great options and great looking with the wood front and clear glass side panel.

This case is an absolute showstopper. The Fractal Design North XL in chalk white with the oak front blends high-performance functionality with Scandinavian aesthetics—it doesn’t even look like a PC case at first glance, and I mean that in the best way possible. The build process was smooth with plenty of room for cable management, large GPUs, and radiators. Airflow is excellent right out of the box, and the mesh ventilation behind the wooden slats adds both form and function. The tempered glass panel is crystal clear and really shows off the internals without looking gaudy. Whether you’re going for a minimalist, modern build or just want a unique centerpiece for your desk setup, this case nails it. It’s rare to find a case this beautiful that also prioritizes thermals and build quality.

this thing is huge. i knew it was bigger than the normal North but man is it big. measure your space before you buy. luckily it fits where i wanted to put it. building in the case was easy. it looks really good. i haven't figured out some of the RGB header connections but that's it.

One of the best looking cases in my opinion. Fractal is a good brand and produces good quality products. North XL isn’t an exception, from the case feet to the buttons on top, everything feels firm and high quality. The food panels in the front aren’t some fake plastic either. The case is large, and was very easy to build in. Plenty of room for cable management, and Fractal included Velcro straps to help with that. Case also comes with 3 140mm intake fans on the front. I was going to use noctua fans, but decided to give these a try and I won’t be buying the noctua fans as these do the job and it’s fairly quiet. There’s room on top for just about every AIO I can think of. Fits massive GPUs, as expected. Mine is just over 360mm in length and fits with plenty of room in the front. While you can fit an aio on the front, make sure to check dimensions of your GPU. In my opinion, top mount aio is the way to go anyway, but the option is there if needed.

This is one of the easiest cases to build in because of it's size. The design is brilliant and makes cable management easy. Look at it, it's sleek and professional and doesn't scream "gamer".

Case is beautiful and easy to work with. Cable management in this case is simple. Biggest issue I've had is having more than 1 exhaust fan in this case is difficult with a 360mm radiator installed on the top of the case.

This case is aesthetically beautiful and was beautiful to build in!

This case is very simple, yet beautiful. It delivers on all of the design elements I wanted in my new PC!

Best case ever. Love the company and customer service. Easy to put together a pc in this case
