The Fractal Design Era 2 impresses with its design combination of aluminium and wood as well as well thought-out details such as the partially screwless assembly. Compared to its predecessor, it offers more flexibility thanks to the sliding motherboard tray. However, the elegant design and the PCIe riser card come at a price of over 160 euros.
