Black and Orange

 

Black and Silver

 

Black all around

 

 

I think its a very nice looking case, and be quiet! are putting a very nice product on the market.

But it would personally be to small for me. But I think anyone trying to build a smaller and quiet build, would be happy to use this case.

[Dietrichw]

Those color accents should be removable so people can paint them like how Corsair has the rings on their fans

[Askew]

Oh my goodness the black all round version is sexy!

 

It's like the Cosmos I've always wanted.

Not too bad. I really dig the look tbh., especially the completely black one. Is this their first case, by the way? I don't think I've ever seen a bequiet case, only their fans, PSUs and CPU coolers.

[Prodigydeadeye]

Sure looks a bitr like Corsair's upcoming 780T minus the side window.

Yeah its their first case

[RatedBlam]

The case inside looks just like every case so far.

But I'm really interested if they include 3 if their fans.

This is indeed their first case.

 

I really love the black orange look, it would go perfect with a SOC Force and the TBA LinusTechTips fans.

BeQuiet joined the game! 

 

Looks ok, definitly moddable. The build quality looks rock solid. 

I am not fan of that side intake

 

Looks like a 150 - 200$ case.

[MegaDave91]

No side panel window...

 

What's the point of accenting the color on the inside without a window?

Price is in there, and it should go for around 129USD

All about silence

Well I bet the lack of a side window will no doubt be a deal breaker for some.

I'm sure it will, imagine the orange one with a gigabyte SOC Force. Killer combo.

[Guest]

Yeah its their first case

 

Well, I hope they don't make any major mistakes then. I remember some of their early PSUs, they were..... not so great. Also, even though I have a bequiet PSU, I never realised that they make some extremely sexy fans.

[RatedBlam]

You should've made a stupid pun.

Like, there's no window so that the case can be quiet. Or something.

[Manny Calavera]

yes ofcourse, 1$ = 1€ in hardware prices , but still looks like a high end case, something like a cosmos

anyway, very good deal even for europeans!

Yarrrrr,

 

Humor is not something that belongs in a pirates set of tools, ye scallywag.

[ShadowCaptain]

Wow that is actually beautiful, seriously looks premium and gorgeous

Yeah it is, probably because they're a german company.

[EChondo]

I wonder why that topmost 5.25" bay is sectioned off a bit. Are we for sure the top is 240mm/280mm and not 360mm/480mm/420mm? Also, why do both sources say there is only three 5.25" bays when four are pictured?

 

Or is that top most bay just there "for show" so the wires from the front headers aren't being interfered with? 

 

Otherwise, very nice looking case! Would love an in-depth analysis and I want to know what kind of fan filters are being used, I love my FD Arc XL fan filters!

[Whiskers]

Ooh. The Black and Orange version looks fantastic.

Top bay might be there just to hide front I/O cables or for radiator space not sure.

But the specs are supposed to be as reported by Be Quiet! themselves. So I'm guessing they should be right.

Thanks for the reassurance.

 

Does anybody have a picture of the top and bottom of the case? The filtered and sectioned off area for the PSU looks enticing and it seems to run throughout the bottom of the entire case.

 

@LinusTech I bet you already have plans for this thing coming in huh? Can't wait for the over/review.

[That Norwegian Guy]

Well I bet the lack of a side window will no doubt be a deal breaker for some.

 

Don't care. Every time a silence optimized case comes out, thousands of whiners nag about there not being a window. Let them whine, I want my silent case.
