Not bad looking; very affordable; many cooling options; removable dust filters.
Cramped; only two optical drive bays; a little small for a midtower.
Abstract: Fractal Design Core 3000 is a recently announced case that boasts many nice features, although surprisingly enough, it doesn't come with USB 3.0. On the other hand, the price of €56 is appealing, especially after considering that the Core 3000 is one o...
Excellent price/performance, Three fans included, Similar build quality to the Fractal Design Arc, Most of the engineering of the more expensive Fractal cases still within the CORE 3000, Rubber mounted hard drives, Large CPU coolers will fit easily, Sleev

You might expect to have to sacrifice some cooling potential when purchasing a Fractal chassis, but that's not the case with the Core 3000. Its CPU cooling is of particular note, and its front intake fan means its no slacker when it comes to removing h...
Attractive inside and out, Great cooling performance, Option to install up to 7 fans, Good build quality, Great value for money
Cable management could be improved, Lack of USB 3.0
We’ve been getting through quite a few of the lower end – budget specific cases lately and the Core 3000 is yet another to join the group. Lower cost can sometimes mean cut-backs to quality, features and design is this so with Core 3000? Definitely no...
