Fractal Design have a long and trusted reputation for flawless build quality and sleek design, but their products are often priced a little too high for your average consumer. The phrase “you get what you pay for” holds true for the premium products Fractal Design produce and the extra investment for a Fractal case can certainly reap its own rewards, but some budgets only stretch so far. The new Core series from Fractal Design hopes to offer a “less is more” attitude, giving you the premium quality and design we’ve come to know and love, but matching it all with a more affordable price tag.
The core 3300 is a wide design ATX mid-tower and despite its mid-budget price tag, it comes with an extensive feature set that should satisfy casual and enthusiast users alike. You’ve got cable management solutions, room for multiple radiators, two high quality 140mm pre-installed fans, room for six hard drives on its vertical drive mounting bracket, plus two SSD stealth mounts behind the motherboard and a whole lot more!
The 3300 is a big chassis, but its extra wide design has clear benefits in terms of radiator support, with room for a 240/280mm radiator in the front and another 240mm in the top, as well as room for extra tall CPU coolers of up to 185mm, while still leaving extensive cable routing space and those extra hard drive mounts behind the motherboard.

The packaging is pretty straight forward, with a representation of the general design on the front as well as the usual names and logos.
In the box you’ll find all of the screws and fittings you’ll need to install all of your major components, as well as a few extra cables ties to help keep it all neat and tidy. There’s a simple user guide and also a booklet about the gaming brand Func.
