Features 3 silent 120mm fans and versatile storage options. Review: Outstanding Case for a Home Server, Cool, Quiet & Incredibly Well Designed - I bought the Fractal Design Node 804 specifically for my home server build, and it’s easily one of the best cases I’ve ever worked with. The dual-chamber design is genius, one side dedicated to the motherboard and cooling, the other purely for storage and power. It keeps everything organised, cool, and easy to manage. Airflow is excellent straight out of the box. The three included 120mm Silent R2 fans move plenty of air while staying genuinely quiet, even under load. This is ideal for a server that runs 24/7 in a home environment where noise matters. Drive support is fantastic. There’s loads of room for multiple hard drives and SSDs, making it perfect for NAS, media servers, backups, and virtualisation. Cable management is also much easier than expected thanks to the modular interior and smart layout. Build quality is top-tier, solid panels, great fit and finish, and the side window is a nice touch without being “gamer flashy.” USB 3.0 on the front is handy, and the whole case just feels thoughtfully engineered. If you’re building a home server, NAS, media server, or lab machine, this case is near perfect. Cool, quiet, spacious, and incredibly easy to work in. Highly recommended. Review: We Whole-heartedly recommend this case! - The Fractal Design Node 804 - Black - is a true marvel of engineering and design. As soon as I laid eyes on this sleek and sophisticated chassis, I knew I had to have it. The moment I unboxed it, I was struck by the sheer quality of the materials used and the impeccable attention to detail, like discovering a perfectly configured RAID array. The all-black exterior exudes a sense of understated elegance, perfectly complementing any modern workspace or gaming setup, like a sysadmin in a crisp black polo shirt. The brushed aluminium front panel is a true work of art, seamlessly blending form and function, just like a well-crafted Bash script. The subtle Fractal Design logo adorning the front adds a touch of refinement that sets this case apart from the competition. But the real beauty of the Node 804 lies in its exceptional versatility. This compact powerhouse is capable of housing a full-sized ATX motherboard, giving you the flexibility to build a high-performance system without sacrificing valuable desk space, like a sysadmin fitting an entire server rack into a closet. The dual-chamber design is a stroke of genius, allowing for superior cable management and optimal airflow, ensuring your components stay cool and your system runs like a well-oiled machine, just like a meticulously organized server room (Hey it is organized in it's own way!!). One of the standout features is its impressive storage capacity. With support for up to six 3.5-inch and two 2.5-inch drives (Officially!), you can easily accommodate all your data storage needs, whether you're a professional content creator or a dedicated gamer with a vast library of games, or a sysadmin with a penchant for hoarding backups. The attention to detail doesn't stop there. The removable dust filters on the front and bottom panels make maintaining the cleanliness of your system a breeze, and the tool-less design of the drive bays and expansion slots simplifies the installation process, even for novice builders, like a sysadmin swapping out a faulty hard drive with one hand while sipping coffee with the other. I must admit, I was slightly apprehensive about the compact nature of the Node 804 at first, but my concerns were quickly alleviated. The case offers ample space for even the most demanding components, with support for full-sized graphics cards and CPU coolers up to 165mm in height, like a sysadmin cramming a supercomputer into a shoebox. The only minor gripe I have with the Node 804 is the somewhat limited front panel connectivity, with only two USB 3.0 ports and a single audio jack. While this may not be a dealbreaker for everyone, it's something to consider if you require more extensive front-facing ports (Can't be just me, right?!) Overall, the Node 804 is an absolute gem. Its stunning design, exceptional build quality, and impressive versatility make it a must-have for anyone looking to build a high-performance system in a compact and visually appealing package, like a sysadmin who just discovered the perfect server enclosure. I wholeheartedly recommend this case to anyone in the market for a truly remarkable computer enclosure, or a sysadmin looking to impress their colleagues with their impeccable taste in hardware. Lengthy review just to say, We Whole-heartedly recommend this case! I can't recommend it enough. ## Features - Dual chamber case layout: Highly effective design for best possible cooling. - Minimalistic design: Elegant brushed aluminum front panel and Scandinavian design - Unique hard drive mounting system: Fitting up to 8 x 3.5″, 4 x 2.5” or up to 10 x 3.5”, 2 x 2.5″ drives HDD/SSD - Fans included: 3x Fractal Design Silent Series R2 fans included with the case and space for an additional 7 fans - Water-cooling ready: Excellent water cooling support with space for up to 4 radiators simultaneously ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00JBBH93K | | Antenna Location | Gaming | | Best Sellers Rank | 41,734 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 326 in Computer Cases | | Box Contents | 1 | | Brand Name | Fractal Design | | Case Type | Mid Tower | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards | | Cooling Method | Air | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (651) | | Enclosure Material | Aluminium | | Fan Size | 120 Millimetres | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05712505303177, 07350041082019 | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Internal Bays Quantity | 12 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 38.9D x 34.4W x 30.7H centimetres | | Item Weight | 6 Kilograms | | Light Color | RGB | | Manufacturer | Fractal Design | | Model Name | Node 804 | | Number of Fans | 3 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Staubfilter | | Power Supply Maximum Output | 800 Watts | | Power Supply Mounting Type | Rear Mount | | Product Warranty | 2 year | | Supported Motherboard | Micro ATX | | Total Expansion Slots Quantity | 7 | | Total USB 2.0 Ports | 2 | | Total USB 3.0 Ports | 2 | | Total USB Ports | 2 | | UPC | 817301012010 012305004683 | | Unit Count | 3 fans | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Fractal Design - **Case type:** Mid Tower - **Colour:** Black - **Cooling method:** Air - **Fan size:** 120 Millimetres - **Material:** Aluminium - **Model name:** Node 804 - **Motherboard compatibility:** Micro ATX - **Power supply mounting type:** Rear Mount - **Recommended uses for product:** Gaming ## Images ![Node 804 - Black - Compact Computer Case - mATX - High Airflow - Modular interior - 3x Fractal Design Silent R2 120mm Fans Included - Water-cooling ready - USB 3.0 -Window Side Panel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81cKjZ-CTtL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this actually fit a full size ATX board, like a Asus M5A99X Evo R2.0 Motherboard** A: Hello Simon,I've checked the instruction manual and it does not mention ATX compatibility. I have also checked the Fractal Design website and it mentions "Micro ATX and Mini ITX motherboard compatibility" (http://www.fractal-design.com/home/product/cases/node-series/node-804).Hope this helps. **Q: How many HDD can this hold?** A: Up to 12 disks - 8 3.5in and 4 2.5in disks. Depends on configuration **Q: Will a full size ATX board work with this (even if it wasn't designed for one)?** A: According to wiki "The maximum size of a microATX motherboard is 9.6 × 9.6 in (244 × 244 mm). The standard ATX size is 25% longer, at 12 × 9.6 in (305 × 244 mm)." To fit an ATX M/B, you need about 60 mm additional space and there is only 30mm of space underneath the motherboard. So, an ATX board, would definitely won't fit. **Q: will this case except low profile cards ?** A: This case will take a full sized card, my card is 279 x 140 x 37 mm and there is plenty of space left. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Case for a Home Server, Cool, Quiet & Incredibly Well Designed *by C***O on 8 December 2025* I bought the Fractal Design Node 804 specifically for my home server build, and it’s easily one of the best cases I’ve ever worked with.

High quality components and build quality, especially for a case that is literally10 years old. There's plenty of space with it's dual chamber design and airflow is excellent. The included fans are of high quality however, I swapped mine over to PWM fans for better control. Just be aware that the fans are 3 pin DC fans. The case does have a manual fan controller built in though, which is utilised by a switch at the rear of the case. Very happy with it overall and now a happy owner of a decent gaming PC. Highly recommended. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fractal Design Node 804 - Black - Cube Compact Computer Case - mATX - High Airflow - Modular Interior - 3X Fractal Design Silent R2 120mm Fans Included - USB 3.0 -Window Side Panel - Intel Core i5-12600K Desktop Processor with Integrated Graphics and 10 (6P+4E) Cores up to 4.9 GHz Unlocked LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W - ARCTIC MX-4 (4 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for All Processors (CPU, GPU - PC), Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Safe Application, Non-Conductive --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/50737866-node-804-black-compact-computer-case-matx-high-airflow-modular](https://www.desertcart.at/products/50737866-node-804-black-compact-computer-case-matx-high-airflow-modular) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
