Key Specs at a Glance

Spacious Interior for High-End Builds

With support for EATX motherboards and graphics cards up to 41.3 cm, the North XL accommodates even the most ambitious gaming configurations. The interior layout is designed to keep cable clutter out of sight, thanks to dedicated routing channels and tie-off points. Builders will appreciate the room to work, whether installing custom water cooling or packing in high-performance components.

Advanced Cooling Flexibility

Cooling is a priority in the North XL, with support for multiple radiator sizes: 360 or 420 mm in the front, 280 or 360 mm on top, and 120 or 140 mm at the rear. Three pre-installed 140 mm fans provide immediate airflow, while the option to add more ensures your system stays cool under load. Anti-dust filters on the front and top help maintain long-term performance.

Premium Materials and Design

The case combines steel chassis with real wood accents, creating a distinctive look that fits into living spaces as much as gaming setups. The black and charcoal finish is understated yet elegant, and the absence of a side window keeps the focus on clean lines and material quality. An integrated power button and HDD/SSD combo cage add to the practical design.
