About this deal

Exterior styling features anodised aluminium in a choice of three different colours combined with a small Walnut trim panel that houses the power button and front I/O, giving the case a unique and sophisticated appearance. To simulate thermal demand we run the Cinebench R23 multi-thread benchmark and 3DMark Time Spy stress test simultaneously in a loop for 60 minutes to fully load the system. This gives the CPU and GPU enough time to reach constant steady-state temperature. With this data, we can compare how the system handles the thermal demand and measure peak noise levels. Experience powerful, uncluttered gaming, with the ability to install a GPU up to 322 mm long in a space-saving 10.4 L case

Even though the Fractal Terra may not offer great support for AIOs or water-cooling radiators and huge graphics cards… it’s no detriment to the case. I would never expect this case to be used as a base for a main gaming PC or high-end editing rig, it's more ideally suited to a media PC or casual living room gaming rig that sits under a TV unit, so its compact size and hardware support is ideal for this type of scenario.

Again this is a good sign that the ventilated panels are doing their job efficiently and the case is able to cool the hardware sufficiently. Closing Thoughts DDR4 RAM, ideal for editing in 4k for lengthily and complex content that can be processed without issue. The BeQuiet Pure Base 500 chassis is the perfect choice for this unit allowing for ample storage additions and superior cooling capacity - not to mention the bitumen and foam inner lining to help with noise dampening.

It also helps in fraud preventions Even though it is extremely compact with its skinny dimensions and small 10.4L capacity, Terra allows users to install three-slot graphics cards up to 320mm long which means you can play PC games on your 4K TV with ease, while keeping the small and sophisticated looks that will fit your living room space. Front panel I/O connectivity consists of a single USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-C port and a USB 3.0 Type-A port, as well as an LED-illuminated power button. Taken as a whole the Fractal Terra is a very good mini-ITX case. Its compact design means it will likely fit in any space while the stylish looks should appeal to anyone looking for a new small media PC case that can sit in the living room and not look out of place. The modest hardware support should be enough for most users, but if you want a mini-ITX and an RTX 4090 you need to look elsewhere – for everyone else, it's more than enough.Hotjar sets this cookie to identify a new user’s first session.

GPU temperature on the other hand is excellent. Even when case side panels are removed the temperature remains consistent so the heavily ventilated panels are doing their intended job, which is good news for cooling. Experience powerful, uncluttered gaming, with the ability to install a GPU up to 322 mm long in a space-saving 10.4 L case (excluding feet) The case is primarily designed with CPU air cooling in mind but it is possible to install a 120mm radiator or AIO inside the Terra. Compact dimensions of 343mm x 153mm x 218mm (LxWxH) and a tiny 10.4L capacity make the Terra one of the smaller Mini-ITX cases on the market.Motherboard Spine is adjustable, which affects the min/ max GPU width and CPU cooler height. If GPU width is increased, CPU cooler height will decrease and vice versa. The max width of the GPU is also dependent on the height. There are two different scenarios (H<131mm, H>131-145mm). See manual for detailed info. It has been a while since my last proper case review, and even longer since I last looked at a new SFF chassis, so when Fractal Design got in touch to say they had a new highly compact mini-ITX case ready to launch… I was very eager to take a look. The Fractal Terra combines a tiny 10.4L small form factor with Scandinavian design elements and the ability to cram in high-end hardware. But can this new compact ITX case from Fractal deal with the current hardware demands and is it an improvement on what came before it? Let’s find out. Fractal Design Terra is an extremely compact mini-ITX chassis with a capacity of just 10.4L, the case measures just 343mm x 153mm x 218mm (LxWxH) so it sits towards the smaller end of the mini-ITX scale which is fine because that surely is what mini-ITX is all about. Fractal has chosen a combination of wood and anodised aluminium for the exterior of the Terra with an internal chassis frame made from steel. Find your build’s ideal balance with 30 mm of internal flexibility provided by a stepless, movable central wall. Slide to strike the best ratio for your build, adapting the space for CPU cooling on one side and graphics card width on the other. This system uses the new AMD 5000 Series CPU - the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X which out performs the i9 10900K in most if not all video editing situations due to tthe larger processor cache and superior architecture.
