 Welcome to our review of the Fractal Design Node 202. We first checked out this case quite some time ago at Computex 2016, and have actually had it in the office for a while, but the release has been a little wonko? As in to say, actually buying the case has been a bit of an issue? Seriously, there is even a Reddit thread with people discussing if it even exists. Now that it does seem to exist for people looking to buy it, let's take a closer look. iBuyPOWER's Revolt II has been redesigned from the ground up to utilize its small form factor to hold the power you need to game with confidence. Check out the link in the video description to learn more. You can see right off the bat that the form factor is quite small. When laying flat, it has a width of 377mm, a height of 146mm, and a depth of 47mm. This case is designed for SFX power supplies up to 130mm long, ITX motherboards, and standardized graphics cards, or 310x145x47mm graphics cards. That was a lot of specific dimensions, and there's a reason for that. The density of this case is pretty damn high. Not the highest, but high enough that it doesn't really allow for a ton of play in terms of what you can put inside. If you're interested in this case, you should be checking the dimensions of the components that you're planning to put inside of it. This isn't a shot at the case at all, it's just a heads up that you need to be aware of its limitations during your planning phase. Starting at the front of the case, you have two USB 3.0 jacks in a black finish, dual audio jacks for your headphone and microphone, and an illuminated power button just to the right of said jacks. There's also a Fractal logo on the right hand side, which looks a little odd when you set the case up vertically, but fits right in when it's placed flat. Looking around the case is pretty standard fare. Fractal went with an unsurprising matte finish all around, and definitely didn't skimp on breathability, with mesh areas scattered around everywhere that they might be useful. Moving on to the inside of the case, we see an elegant yet simplistic setup comprised of three main zones. The power supply's little area, the motherboard's split off, and the graphics card's whole section all have their own kind of areas, like I said. If you go for the option that includes a power supply, you'll be equipped with a 450 watt Integra, which should be able to handle basically everything modern that you would throw inside this case. The power supply area also somewhat supports a little bit of cable management room just in front so you can stuff some of your extra cables away and leave some breathing room for the air coolers on your CPU and GPU. You will very likely need this cable management area unless you plan on stuffing all of the spare cables under the graphics card, because some of the even included cables are hella long. I don't know why someone would need a USB 3.0 internal header cable that if you stood two of these cases beside each other would be able to be plugged into the other one. That being said, at least it is a blacked out cable if you do spring for the included power supply and get the included cables that are kind of straight out of 2005 with colors all over the place that may be a little bit disappointing, although it also may be fair considering that there is a lack of a side window. The motherboard area is fairly unsurprising, although it does support the start of the PCI Express riser card. You might notice that in the glam footage that the screw holes for ours are a little bit off. Feel free to ignore this completely. This is a pre-production sample and they have revised this part of the case so that this is no longer an issue. On the graphics card side of the case you naturally have the installation area for the graphics card, an angled support bracket which you can move around to support whatever kind of graphics card you decide to put in there, and some shared room for the front I.O. cables. There's also a bunch of extra room under the graphics card for support for 120 millimeter fans, two of them. Straddling the middle support bar of the case is an SSD cage that you can mount two drives in. This cage is relatively easy to get to, the only drawback is that the cable management of installing an SSD on the graphics card side of the case is a little messy. There are fan filters but some of them are rather difficult to get to. The filter for the power supply and the GPU are only accessible if you take the case apart completely, I mean taking the top off and the bottom off, although I must say that they are, I am happy that they're included. And last but not least is the stand, it's fairly standard fair, sorry for the pun, it's made out of plastic and is actually quite solid. It does an adequate job of keeping the case standing upright. There's little rubber feet on the bottom, four of them, one in each corner, and they do an adequate job of keeping it from sliding around the desk and it looks fine but you can do something that Hardware Canucks did in their video which I think is quite awesome, I'm just going to call them out. If you place it down and then put the case down horizontal on top of it, it makes it kind of look like the case is levitating, it looks super cool. In conclusion, the Node 202 is clean, quite dense, and even slightly cheaper than the RVZ01 from Silverstone. In terms of positioning, I think Fractal did a great job for price and what you get with it. It didn't exactly knock my socks off but I also wasn't expecting it to. These small ITX cases that still support full-size graphics cards are actually quite attractive right now and there's a fair amount of them. The idea that a tiny case with a tiny GPU like an R9 Nano is awesome but still not catering to what most people's desires are so I think this was the right direction to go. Thanks for watching guys!

I really just definitely forgot to write this part of the script so I'm gonna give Taryn a link. Oculus vs Vive, Taryn just said, so it's gonna be that video. There we go, cool.
