Fractal Design Releases Core 3000 USB 3.0 PC Case

The Fractal Design Core 3000 mid-tower PC case was released in 2011 and quickly became a popular budget chassis thanks to the low $65 MSRP. For $65 you got a stylish, minimalistic design case that still had multiple cooling options and good overall performance.

Fractal Design Core 3000 USB 3.0 Case

Over the years the Fractal Design Core 3000 was starting to show signs of aging, but all that changed today when Fractal Design announced the Fractal Design Core 3000 USB 3.0.  This is basically a refresh of the original Core 3000 and now you get a pair of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports on the front panel. The MSRP jumps up to $74.95 or £54.95, so you need to ask yourself if front USB 3.0 ports are worth an extra ten dollars.
