Top values for temperature and noise emission
My hardware came from a Coolermaster case into this Fractal. Visually, I like it very much because it is kept simple. I use the version without side windows. Integrated is a hub for the fans, about this I have all case fans running. The case fans are not noticeable in idle. In gaming, the fans are a bit more audible, but still very quiet compared to airflow cases from other brands. One thing first, the case is huge.... but that doesn't bother me, because only performance counts.

Nice PC case, but a lot of plastic
1 star deduction because there is a lot of plastic in this PC case, otherwise it is worth the money. For the size compared to my old Be quiet 900 case, the Fractal Torrent is lighter because the base frame is made of thinner metal with a lot of light plastic. The manual is good and understandable.

Contrary to the operating instructions, I plugged the CPU fan directly into the board (CPU_FAN), where it belongs, and plugged the controller for the case fan into the CPU_OPT next to it. CPU_FAN and CPU_OPT are connected to each other as a control unit; if you adjust the CPU-FAN in the board, the CPU_OPT also takes over the adjustment. This is practical for keeping the PC cool with fan control and CPU fan. The scope of delivery includes all screws for the case that are needed to assemble the PC. The cabling on the back is well organised, but with thick cables such as those from Cable Mod it gets relatively tight; but it still fits in.

Since the PSU is installed at the top of the case, the leverage is different from a conventional PC where the PSU is installed at the bottom. . On the right side, where the mainboard and cable management are installed, viewed from the front, the centre of gravity is shifted strongly to the right, so the case can tip over more easily than others with the PSU installed at the bottom. One design flaw is, the feet of the case should extend further out, at least paralel with the side panels, to minimise the risk of tipping over. But all in all, I love the case

By far the best case I've ever owned or used
Fantastic case that keeps my equipment cool. Probably one of the (if not the) best case on the market at the moment. Absolutely loved building in it and using it.

Torrent of fresh air
Awesome temperature for my CPU and GPU.
I had around 62°C (GPU) with my last case (NXZT H510 elite)
With the new case I'm now at 53°C (GPU), almost lost 10°C while still being silent.

Anyone who's looking for a silent and awesome airflow case. There you go

Excellent, but there are a few things to consider
Great case, specifically that the power supply is positioned at the top makes cabling a lot more comfortable, especially for people with big hands ;)
However, it should be noted that the GPU PCIe cable should be AT LEAST 70cm long, ideally with a 90° connector, as the distance from the power supply is somewhat longer. You should especially consider this point with the problem children RTX 4090 and 5090 ;)
Pro
Design (a matter of taste)
Airflow
Workspace in the housing
Power supply unit on top with plenty of space
Cable management is simplified
