Product Information

During testing, there were multiple occasions where I forgot that the system was powered on because it’s that silent. As expected, the Pop Silent took the lead on our acoustics chart, with noise levels barely surpassing 37 decibels with the CPU at full load.

Don’t get me wrong, if this were a normal case, then these temps wouldn’t be impressive, but for a silence-first chassis, I gotta give Fractal credit. It also has separate microphone and headphone jacks, a power button, and a tiny mode button for its built-in ARGB controller. One of the nicer things that we can say about the CPU temperatures we measured (after mounting our platform into the Pop Air RGB) is that they’re only a few degrees worse than average.

Flexible specification options to meet your needs, fully configurable and of course, upgradeable in future. Often used for the mundane task of holding a port breakout plate, the extra slot also provides die-hard users the ability to install a double-slot card at the bottom of a motherboard, if desired. While they were more popular in the past, there aren’t many silent cases on the market–particularly recent ones designed for modern hardware.

We are impressed to see that Fractal Design has packed a host of features into Pop while keeping the cost low. As I said, I agree that mini ITX is not a good format, is too claustrophobic inside for a gaming PC. Whichever path you choose, Pop Series will provide you with a solid build, a straight-forward layout, and will serve as a stylish addition to your desk space. com and PC Magazine are among the federally registered trademarks of Ziff Davis and may not be used by third parties without explicit permission.As part of our RGB series of gaming PCs this unit comes with a fully controllable RGB lighting system which allows you to change the colour of your fans and LED strips with nearly infinite variations, all from the convenience of a remote control unit. Type-C cable that’s being sold separately, but we can't knock a case too hard that does so much else right.

The PCIe slot covers were the saving grace for our beefy RTX 3070 Ti, as the fans were able to grab air in through the rear of the chassis. We have absolutely no influence on where PCS market demographic is, but Mini ITX will make up a very small margin and with millions in the turnover per year, you have to understand that you taking your money elsewhere wouldn't resonate. Pop Air RGB, is an old-school big tower with a nice bit of color in its back pocket, though it was a merely average performer on our thermal and acoustic tests. I know its fashionable to have glass sides but if you want silent, better off with 1 more side that deadens sound.

The word pop doesn’t really apply to the design of Pop Silent, but it’s part of a new line from Fractal that includes the Pop Air, which comes in an array of colors and three RGB fans. I think it should as the case accepts a 365mm graphics card, which is quite impressive, so it probably will, but I wouldn't like to bet money on it.
