AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D with Deepcool AK620 + PowerColor Hellhound Radeon RX 7900 XT
The original temperatures with Fractal Pop Mini Silent were around 90°C after moving to this one the temperatures are around 60°C I can only recommend.
there was a slight problem with cable management due to the unusual position of the PSU but nothing that could not be solved with downloadable tapes

Completely transparent panel
Quality of material and workmanship
Great airflow and soundproofing at the same time
Lower fans Doesn't take up much space Plenty of usb ports near the power button.
Less space for cabling due to top PSU mount and minimal cabling holes underneath
Use the supplied fans only if you do not use your own water cooling.

Finally, Fractal stopped making shoe boxes. very nice box.
with Noctua NH-D15 a great combination
plenty of space and great air flow
Supplied with 2x180 fans that are quiet and powerful. the rest of the positions for the fans I installed Noctua 2x140 in the bottom and 1x120 in the back.
very good workmanship, nothing gives or bends
unconventional location of the source in the upper part of the cabinet

The torrent is a cabinet designed primarily for air cooling. Not so much because of the open design as those 180mm fans with a width of almost 4cm (the standard is 3). Each of them can be compared with three average 120mm fans at the same speed with air flow. In other words, the two that are already there can do as much work as six 120mm fans. Cooling the processor with water doesn' t make much sense to me, it would be a huge surcharge for something that doesn' t even have better temperatures, and the graphics will always be noisier.
One 120mm fan can be put in the back as an exhaust, but that' s not to say - the cabinet will have a high positive pressure anyway.
The position of the source allows you to mount the fans directly under the graphics card and significantly silence the noisiest part of the system. You can put 180mm fans there, which is probably ideal, but you can only do it with a microATX board. You can put a maximum of three 180mm fans in the box, either two at the front or at the bottom. If you have an ATX board, the options at the bottom are either two 140mm or three 120mm fans. Then all you have to do is play with the fan curves and you have a solidly cooled system with low noise. I keep 3060 in game load around 70 ° C with graphics fans around 50%.
Other advantages are obvious at first glance and touch - the cabinet looks good, is made of quality materials, well made and spacious. All panels are easy to remove and replace without tools, removal and return filters are easy, any physical intervention in the assembly except the cables is very straightforward.
In terms of dimensions, the Torrent Compact is quite embarrassing. Honestly, there is nothing compact on the box, not even within the mid-tower cabinets. It is obvious that the main priority was to install large fans and free up as much space around the graphics card due to the rapid air exchange. The manufacturer has narrowed the space for cabling, which is quite frustrating. You can work with it, but you need to play. It will help that you can hide a good bundle of cables right behind the source, but I still spent a lot of time on the cabling and I consider it the biggest weakness of the cabinet.
Another bit of a disadvantage is that there is no alternative to those Fractal fans. Even if you find some 180mm fans, they will have a standard width of 3mm and will be much weaker in terms of air flow and static pressure. I would also like to point out that one of them ticked noticeably. The Internet advised that the ticking should stop after a while. So I let the fans run all day 100% and the ticking really stopped.
I have a PC right on my desk and the Torrent Compact is just a big box for my taste, but since I play with my headphones open at night, the airflow is worth it. It' s a significant investment, but a lot of music for a lot of money - although you can install additional fans, the ones that are there will suffice and not if they make up half the price of the cabinet. If I deduct them from the price, you will find mostly cabinets with worse processing in the price tags of around two thousand, and it is quite common that their fans are not much, or you have to buy more. I think Torrent will be able to defend its price tag.
Uncompromising airflow
Unique design
Quality workmanship
Most elements can be removed without tools and screws
Narrow space for cabling
Regardless of quality and equipment, a higher price class
Contrary to the name of the box, it is not exactly compact
