One of the nice things about watching LTT over the years has been seeing new people arrive, start out as nervous assistants to Linus in his videos and then steadily develop into relaxed, entertaining presenters and likeable characters who have their own recognisable style and interests and can carry a video on their own. Anthony and Alex are two obvious examples - just really fun to watch both of them do their stuff these days - but Adam's been improving in leaps and bounds lately, and I think this is the best work I've seen him do.

I helped my friend upgrade his 3070 to a 4090 last weekend. Unfortunately we had to replace his great old Antec case because the riveted-in front HDD cage didn't have clearance for the GPU. We ran down to Microcenter and he decided on a Fractal Torrent. After building in that thing, I'm upgrading my case to a Fractal ASAP. The care and thought that goes into the design and build of their cases is outstanding and worth every penny. I remember seeing all the fans and telling my friend he might need a fan controller because of limited connectors, only to discover an included fan hub. Same with RGB only to discover they were daisy-chainable.

Makes way more sense and saves so much more room than "connectors in the back". Also you could use a PIO motherboard with 2-4 slots in the usual area and they would be completely out of the way of the graphics card.

I've been looking for a successor to the Silverstone RVZ02B and this might actually be it.

it is like watching a teddy bear with big ass teddy mittens trying to assemble something that delicate chinese hands should work on... hilarious

I would have loved to see some temps from this build! Nothing synthetic, just pure heavy gaming!

I just moved my PC into a new Fractal Meshify C and I can definitely attest to their quality, absolutely love the case.

So this is the successor to the Node 202. I am quite impressed. I might need to invest in one of these for my future HTPC for retro console emulation that I want to build for my living room.

Yep that's why I went with the Cooler Master TD300 Mesh Black and WOW what a difference in cooling performance vs a crappy stock ibuypower case. :)

So I really want to build this but one thing that bothers me is that they never turn on the build by the end of the video, so while yes all the components fit, there's that part of me that wonders if this even works.
