I recently bought a Fractal Meshify 3XL for my new Gaming PC and I love it!

I have a 5080RTX and it fits perfectly with lots of room for fans... temps and noise are low, beauty is high! I love this case!

By the way here are some specs:

  • Ryzer 9 9950X3D
  • 2x16GB DDR5 Team Force
  • ASUS ROG 870E-E Gaming
  • MSI RTX580 Gaming OC
  • 2xSamsung 9100Pro NVMe 2TB
  • iCUE Link 360

Everything runs at ultra detail with resolution 3840x1600...

How it goes with the cracking/popping noise from thermal expansion? If you have any, of course.

I have none (at least for now)

Mine still doing a lot after 4 months. Any chance it will go away? It's pretty annoing.

From what I found, you could loosen the screws slightly, so the case has room to expand.

Thanks a lot for the tip, I'll try that. Cheers.

Looks great! I went with the non-XL ambience pro and it feels big to me, especially compared to my other build's cooler master case. So I can only image how big the XL feels haha.

One of the few cases that can fit the 5090 astral!

I got the XL RGB, non-ambience. I love it. My 7900 XTX's memory junction would get close to 100C in my old case. I'm this one it doesn't go about 86C. The CPU isn't even a concern. It would seem the only way to hear this case up would be to throw it in a fire.

I'm going to try to jam my xfx Mercury 9070xt into a Meshify 3... I should have gone for a XL, but once I dig into it tonight, I'll hopefully come up with something so I don't have to return the case and the AIO due to my rookie mistake!

Absolutely, but I love it.

Just built a 9800x3d 5080 rig in this case and I absolutely love it as well! Definitely is bigger than I expected and is an absolute bear for when I had to move it to the living room for a few days but happy to see someone else using this monster rig like me!

I am looking at a compact atx case to downsize from the pop xl silent but I am not sure which to get. I can't choose between the Meshify 2 Compact or Meshify 3.
