Fractal Design Core 1000, an elegant and inexpensive Micro-ATX case

In today's review we will present the Core 1000 case, produced by the Sweden Fractal Design.This is an affordable micro-ATX format case, which incorporates within it interesting features, such as the removable anti-vibration hard drive bracket and the ability to host video cards longer than 30cm.

Side plates

On the right side of the case there is a black bulkhead that offers the possibility of installing a 120mm fan to improve airflow inside the structure. As with most of the cases that adopt this solution, even in this case the grating is devoid of dust filter and allows the mounting of the fan through the help of 4 self-threading screws.

The possibility to install this additional fan can be a plus if you have a lot of video cards that go warm and thanks to an additional 120mm fan on the heatsink, which throws fresh air, it can lower the temperature of a few °C.

The bulkhead on the left does not have any details, as in most medium-low brand cases.
