Product details

The Fractal Design Core 2300 has many features that are usually only found in expensive and larger cases. The extremely compact ATX midi tower case is designed for optimal airflow and cooling. The case is already equipped with two pre-installed 120 mm silent fans and supports 280 mm or 240 mm radiators for the installation of water cooling systems. The enclosure can accommodate up to six hard drives - three 3.5" and three 2.5" HDDs/SSDs. An additional 2.5" SSD can be installed. The black and white contrasting interior of the case and the intelligent cable management round off the features of the Core 2300.
