Fractal Design Pop Air RGB Mid-Tower Case (Orange Core)

The Fractal Design FD-C-POR1A-05 is a mid-tower computer case that balances strong airflow, flexible hardware support, and a striking look that feels at home on a gaming desk or a clean work setup. If you want a build that stays cool and remains easy to work with, this case gives you the breathing room and conveniences that make the process straightforward.

The front uses a mesh panel combined with a dust filter, so fresh air reaches the components while debris stays out. Fractal Design pre-installs two 120 mm RGB fans at the front and a matching 120 mm fan at the rear, letting you power on with colorful lighting and solid cooling from day one. Builders who prefer liquid cooling can install radiators up to 280 mm at the front, 240 mm at the top, and 120 mm at the rear, giving plenty of options for custom loops or all-in-one units.

Inside, there is space for graphics cards up to 405 mm long and air coolers up to 170 mm tall, so you can run today’s larger GPUs and high-performance CPU heatsinks without a tight squeeze. The layout supports ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards, making it a versatile platform whether you are building a high-end system or a compact board with room to grow.

Storage mounts are equally adaptable. Two trays hold either 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch drives, and a separate bracket secures additional SSDs. If you still rely on optical media or need quick-access front storage, the dual 5.25 inch bays include a hidden drawer that tidies small accessories such as flash drives or screws.

Thoughtful cable routing is built in. Wide pass-through openings and pre-mounted tie-downs let you tuck cables behind the motherboard tray, so the tempered glass side panel shows the components rather than clutter. Up front, the I/O panel comes USB-C ready with an optional upgrade module, keeping the case prepared for modern peripherals.

Whether you are a first-time builder seeking an uncomplicated path to a clean build, a gamer who wants strong airflow for demanding sessions, or a content creator who appreciates quick access to storage and roomy component support, the Pop Air RGB makes the process feel approachable without sacrificing performance or style.
