FRACTAL DESIGN Node 804 MATX Mini Tower Cabinet

The Fractal Design Node 804 is a Micro-ATX mini tower cabinet built around a distinctive dual-chamber layout that physically separates the motherboard and primary components from the power supply and drive bay area. This separation promotes cleaner airflow paths and a tidier internal build environment, making it a practical choice for home workstations, home-theatre PCs, and compact enthusiast builds alike. The chassis ships with three Fractal Design Silent Series R2 fans pre-installed — one 120 mm unit at the front and two 120 mm units at the rear, each running at 1000 rpm. Users can expand cooling coverage significantly: the front accepts up to four 120 mm fans, the top panel accepts up to four 120 mm or four 140 mm fans, and the rear offers two 120 mm or a combined 120 mm plus 140 mm configuration. An integrated three-fan controller mounted at the rear simplifies speed management without requiring a separate accessory. Dust filters are fitted at the front, top, and bottom to help reduce particulate ingress over time. For builders interested in liquid cooling, the Node 804 supports up to four radiators simultaneously. The front chamber accommodates a 240 mm radiator, the top panel accepts up to a 280 mm unit, and the rear panel can mount a 120 mm radiator. This flexibility makes the case compatible with a wide range of all-in-one and custom loop cooling solutions, including Fractal Design's own Lumen and Celsius AIO cooler lines. Storage capacity is generous for a compact form factor. The case fits up to eight 3.5-inch drives alongside two 2.5-inch drives, or alternatively eight 3.5-inch plus four 2.5-inch drives in a mixed configuration. A slim optical drive bay is also present. Five full-height expansion slots accommodate graphics cards up to 320 mm (12.60 inches) in length, though installing a fan in the lower front position reduces the maximum GPU clearance to 290 mm (11.42 inches). The front panel is constructed from brushed aluminium, giving the Node 804 a clean, minimal aesthetic consistent with Scandinavian design sensibilities. A tempered window on the left side panel lets you display the internal build. Front I/O includes two USB 3.1 Gen 1 (USB 3.2 Gen 1) Type-A ports plus separate 3.5 mm audio input and output jacks. Touch-fastener cable management straps are included in the box.
