North XL Momentum Tempered Glass Large Mid Tower Gaming Case from Fractal Design
Momentum, RefinedNorth XL Momentum Edition evolves the North design language with a sharper focus on airflow and hardware. Natural materials meet purpose-built cooling, delivered as standard. A blackened oak front panel pairs with dark alloy accents for a subdued, architectural look. Open front intake and a mesh top panel remain core to the design, keeping airflow direct and unobstructed. Inside, the layout supports modern high-end components with room to scale — from long graphics cards to large radiators — all within a clean, accessible mid-tower format.
Minimal Design. Maximal Effect.
Open Front AirflowNorth XL Momentum Edition is built around a direct airflow path, formed by an open front intake and a full mesh top panel. The structure prioritises intake volume and low restriction, guiding air cleanly through the main chamber and out of the system without unnecessary obstruction. The internal layout is arranged to accommodate modern components without crowding. Clearance for long graphics cards and large cooling hardware is preserved, while airflow paths remain open to maintain predictable thermal behaviour across the system.

Ice Cold Components
Cool. Controlled.3x Momentum 14 FansThe North XL Momentum is supplied with three pre-installed Momentum 14 fans, using liquid crystal polymer blades and FDB bearings to maintain stability and efficiency. They each deliver a maximum rotational speed of 1,800 RPM, airflow of 79.79CFM, and static pressure of 2.26mmH2O.
AIO SupportSupport for large liquid radiators and multiple fan placements allows the chassis to scale with increasingly demanding hardware. Front-mounted radiators up to 420 mm, top-mounted radiators up to 360 mm, and rear exhaust cooling provides endless opportunities.
Easy Maintainance
Clean Internal LayoutTool-less access panels reduce friction during installation and upgrades. A slide-to-remove top panel provides fast, unobstructed access to fans and radiators, allowing cooling hardware to be installed or serviced without dismantling the chassis.
Smart and Simple CablingBehind the motherboard tray, 37 mm of dedicated cable routing space keeps cables contained and out of sight. Tie-down points and mounting locations support clean routing, helping preserve airflow while maintaining a restrained internal appearance.
Built for Access
I/OFrom the topFront connectivity is kept minimal and functional, offering quick access to essential ports without visual distraction. Two Gen 3.2 Type-A ports and a high-speed USB-C Gen2x2 port support modern peripherals and external storage, while a combined headphone and microphone jack provides convenient audio access at the front of the system.
