Best PC Case of 2022 Award from Tom’s Hardware goes to Fractal North, a PC case that introduces natural materials in an effort of transforming the gaming station.

 

Only days after launching its latest product, market leader Fractal Design was acknowledged for its innovative and revolutionary design in the prestigious Tom’s Hardware Best of 2022 Awards.

 

“Masterfully mixing mid-century modern design (wood slats and all) and high airflow for today’s thermally demanding CPUs and GPUs, Fractal Design’s North mid-tower chassis easily stands out as the most memorable and impressive case of the year – if not the last few years. This may just be the prettiest PC case ever produced, period.”  is Tom’s Hardware phrasing motivating the choice of North as the winner.

 

Bringing a unique Scandinavian design to the mid-tower PC case, North offers a mature and refreshingly sleek take on the aesthetics of PC gaming. Fusing design and airflow engineering, the case features fine-patterned mesh ventilation and an open front with real walnut or oak panels.

 

In the words of Hannes Wallin, CEO and Founder of Fractal Design:

”We have been working on this project for quite a while and are excited to finally unveil it. Since the beginning, Fractal has questioned preconceived notions of what gamers prefer and North is a pinnacle example of our vision. Introducing natural materials and bespoke details was challenging, but we couldn’t be happier with the result. The warm reception is rewarding and encourages us to keep innovating.”

 

North was introduced on the 7th of december 2022, and won the award for best PC case the next week. Read more about the Tom’s Hardware Best of 2022 Awards.
