Introducing an additional version of our North XL series, designed for builds with reverse connector motherboards.

In North XL RC, the interior has been reconfigured to accommodate ATX motherboards with rear-facing connectors. This includes motherboard series such as ASUS Back to the Future, GIGABYTE Stealth, and MSI Project Zero. By reducing cables and clutter from the main chamber, with compatible components connecting through the reverse side, users can effortlessly achieve a finish to their system that looks clean and accomplished.



As with other North XL cases, the RC version fuses design materials with airflow engineering, to make performance gaming a stylish addition to the living space. All versions support 420 mm front-mounted radiators, 360 mm top-mounted radiators, and graphics cards up to 413 mm in length.

Looks nice, and glad to see more cases supporting the BTF arrangement, which I think is an elegant way to clean up cable clusterflookers and provide better, more uninterrupted air flow, especially given the higher operating temps of recent generation CPU's & GPU's :)

But of course, the ONLY question now is.........what's the friggin P*R*I*C*E*...again :(
