Fractal Design Define R4 Full-Tower PC Chassis Review

Now that I have the test components installed, you can can see that I have removed the rear 140mm fan in favour of our Antec 820 water cooling block, if this is a setup you want to follow you could always install the now spare 140mm fan into one of the other fan mounting points within the chassis.

The Antec 920 has plenty of breathing room too, which is vital since high amounts of soundproofing in a chassis can tend to increase temperatures too, but with a good amount of cable management we see a clean airflow throughout the chassis. The Fractal Design power supply we used for our build also looks fantastic in here too, keeping with the high contrast black and white colours of the chassis.

As you can see here, everything is clean and tidy, with almost no cables hanging loose and with only our Kingston 3K SSD installed, there is clearly still plenty of room for expansion here, but should you require three or less hard drives, you could easily remove the 5 bay hard drive caddy, which would not only give you greater room for your graphics card but also give better airflow from the front of the chassis.

Around the back everything still looks neat and tidy, thanks to the ventilation provided on the expansion slot cover our GTX 560 Ti has plenty of breathing room.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
