Whether you’re building a dual-CPU rig, need tons of drive space, or just have big hands, get the space you crave with the Define 7 XL Full-Tower Case in black with dark-tinted tempered glass from Fractal Design. Intended for space-hungry builds, this full tower supports EE-ATX, E-ATX, ATX, micro-ATX, mini-ITX, SSI EEB, and SSI CEB motherboards. In addition to two 5.25″ optical drive mounts, this flexible case also comes with eight 2.5/3.5″ drive bays that can be installed in 18 different configurations. Two dedicated 2.5″ drive mounts are also included, with five total possible positions. Nine expansion slots offer ample room for adapter cards, and another three vertical slots can be used with the optional Fractal Flex VRC-25 PCIe riser to install side-mounted GPUs. Using a storage layout, users can fit GPUs up to 14.13″, while using an open layout with or without a front fan can provide room for GPUs up to 20.63 or 21.61″, respectively. With the HDD cages installed, PSUs up to 9.84″ are supported, as are CPU coolers up to 7.28″ in height.
This case comes with three preinstalled 140mm Dynamic X2 GP-14 fans and mounting positions for up another six 140mm fans, or up to eleven 120mm fans. Nylon filters at the top, bottom, and front of the case reduce dust buildup and assist in keeping components cool. Users can also install liquid-cooling systems in the Define 7 XL. Radiators up to 480mm can be fitted to the front or top of the case, while the bottom and rear of the case can fit radiators up to 280 and 120mm, respectively.
Featuring sound-dampening materials, the Fractal Design Define 7 XL has a steel frame and right-side panel, as well as a left-side panel with dark-tinted tempered glass. Fractal’s ModuVent top panel allows users to optimize the case for increased airflow or reduced operational noise, and the top and side panels can all be removed for access to the inside of the case. The front panel also opens, featuring a hinged design and magnetic latching mechanism. An I/O port is also present on the front panel, providing you with two USB 3.1 Gen 1 and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, as well as a USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port with power delivery. Separate 3.5mm ports for audio input and output are also incorporated into the front panel.
