Rated 5 out of 5

A very good looking, well thought out case with high quality finishes

I am so incredibly happy with this case. I chose this case because I wanted a quiety, powerful, and attractive gaming PC. This case did well in Gamers Nexus sound normalized cooling tests, and it looks fantastic. This case delivered on every positive thing mentioned in reviews. The case is larger than I anticipated, but that turned out to be a blessing. Building inside this case was easy. There is plenty of room for components, including dual-tower air coolers, AIO, or custom loops. Especially for those looking to do the last one; there is a gigantic space for a reservoir in the top right corner of this case. Materials quality feels top notch. The panels featuring spring-catch releases pull away smoothly with a nice, positive click. The plastic front panel feels nice and rigid. The entire case is covered in a kind of powder coated matte finish that looks phenomenal. Fitment of all the panels is tight and consistent. Building was very easy. The back panel has ample room for cable management, and there are channels to run the front I/O down to the lower portion of the case where most motherboard headers are located. Around the edges, there is a small groove that fits fan power and RGB cables nicely. The included fan hub means you don't have to run fan power cables around to motherboard headers, which also tidy things up a bit. Both the front and back sides of my build look nice and clean.

The best in air cooling!

You get massive fans to move alot of air. Case exterior is all plastic and glass. Dust filters work great and are easily accessible.

The best in air cooling!

By NICK R.

You get massive fans to move alot of air. Case exterior is all plastic and glass. Dust filters work great and are easily accessible.

An embodiment of cutting-edge design and engineering, the Torrent Light Tempered Glass E-ATX Mid-Tower Computer Case in sleek black is a marvel for enthusiasts seeking unparalleled cooling efficiency and aesthetic appeal. This case is meticulously crafted to optimize airflow and cooling performance right from the start, featuring a revolutionary component layout that promotes unobstructed air circulation.

The Torrent Light is equipped with two custom-engineered 180 x 38 mm Dynamic PWM or Prisma RGB PWM fans, designed to deliver a powerful and precise airflow. These fans, along with the three included 140 mm fans, are strategically placed to ensure that every component receives the cooling it needs. The front fan brackets are versatile, accommodating both standard and larger radiator and fan sizes, making this case a versatile choice for any high-end cooling system, whether air-cooled or featuring a custom water loop.

With its open grille and a spacious internal layout, the Torrent Light ensures that there is no compromise on airflow. The 38 mm thickness of the 180 mm fans is a testament to their ability to move massive volumes of air, ensuring that your system remains cool even under intense workloads. The streamlined design not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides ample space for component installation and maximizes airflow for both air and water cooling systems.

The case's open layout is complemented by expansive base intakes and support for extra-large bottom fans, which provide exceptional GPU cooling. Users have the option to install the included nylon filters to balance the need for dust filtration with the desire for even higher airflow. The front and bottom panels can accommodate extra-thick radiators and push-pull fan configurations up to 420 mm, further enhancing the cooling capabilities.

Installation and cable management are made effortless with the Torrent Light. The case includes external cable straps for a tidy setup, a pre-installed Nexus 9P Slim PWM fan hub, and a removable top bezel. Cable guides with straps ensure a clean finish, while two steel drive trays with vibration-damping rubber grommets support smooth and quiet operation. Additionally, four dedicated SSD brackets are provided for easy storage solutions.

The included GPU support bracket is a thoughtful addition, ensuring that your graphics card remains level and secure. Assembly is straightforward, with clear instructions provided.

For those who appreciate the beauty of their components, the Torrent Light features seamless tempered glass panels with bolt-free top-latching mechanisms, allowing for effortless access and maintenance. The top-mounted aerodynamic PSU shroud not only conceals cables but also includes integrated ARGB effects for a touch of customizable lighting (available on TG versions).

Lastly, the case offers integrated support for a water-cooling reservoir on the motherboard tray, making it a comprehensive solution for building a high-performance, aesthetically pleasing system that stands out in any setting.
