A Powerful PC Build For Gaming & Video Editing in 2025 | Fractal Design North

Video Description

#FractalDesign #pcbuild #asuspcdiy - Is the iconic Fractal North still a solid chassis for Gamers and Creators in 2025? Well, yes! That goes without saying! Let's see how sam themes a gamer / creator focussed build with some of the latest hardware. Timecodes, though I don't recommend skipping for visual narrative reasons! (Quality headphones or speakers recommended throughout) 00:00 - Sam Gets a DM 01:06 - Fractal North Overview 01:46 - Build Hardware 02:20 - Motherboard Assembly 04:08 - Fractal North Assembly 07:25 - Noise Levels 07:52 - Airflow Visualization 08:15 - Cinematic & Desk Setup Whilst Matt was away, Sam was tasked with the creative process of filming and building a PC for the channel, something he's never tried before. We never planned for this video to be live on the channel, but Sams efforts were so good it only felt right to share it with you guys. Please do give him a high five in the comments :D The Fractal Design North remains one of the more mature focussed cases almost three years after its launch. For this one Sam wanted to embrace the thick Arctic Freezer III 240 combined with a Core Ultra 7 and RTX 5080 combination. This pushed the North for a solid gamer and creator focussed system which will be ideal for recoding music and editing content.

With Computex 2025 just passing, I was hopeful that we might see a new version of North for later in the year, perhaps even a smaller Micro ATX addition... That doesn't seem to be the case. With that said, the current North still holds its own and I'm very excited to see so much new hardware working so well within! Have you built with the North in 2024? What do you think of Sams build?
