Introduction

I would like to thank Fractal Design for supplying the review sample.


Fractal Design is launching the Define R6, its sixth generation Define series case, today, which presents a big step forward from the R5 we reviewed quite some time ago. The newest version does not only change things up in terms of functionality and layout, but also offers more color choices and some interesting accessories. We received the white/black version of the Fractal Design R6 for review.

Specifications

Packaging

The Fractal Design R6 comes packaged in a brown cardboard box with an outline of the chassis on its front, while the rear lists the features alongside a blow-up diagram of the enclosure. You will find a specifications table on one side; the other is just holds another view of the R6 itself.


The case comes sandwiched between two thick Styrofoam spacers. Fractal Design has also placed a large foam layer on the side with the glass panel to protect it during shipping. A plastic bag has been a put over the R6 to keep fingerprints and scratches away as well.
