Quiet case recommendations with top vent/compartment!

whatsoup

Hi all, first post, long time follower. I hope some of you can help me. I'm pretty desperate to find a quiet case (full or mid tower ATX) with top radiator exhaust (and most importantly) with a top cover/vent.

 

I was going to go with the Be Quiet Silent Base 800 but according to their support, will not not fit in the Corsair H110i GT AIO liquid cooler without taking out the 5.25" bays (which I need)

 

I've been researching cases for weeks now but can't find many with top covers/vents for silence and spillage protection!

 

Price isn't really an issue , I would just like recommendations for ANY silent cases with top/vent covers. Seems there's a big gap in the market here. Feel for to correct me! :P TIA

Welcome to the Forum.

 

I'd take a look at the Fractal Design Define R5. Oh snap. Linus kinda made two videos on it, though one was for NCIX.

Thanks Tedster, I should have said I've looked at the R5 but I get the impression those top covers need to be removed so the top fans don't choke.. I'm talking more like a seperate compartment.

NZXT H440?

Supports dual 140 radiators in the top.

Thanks again Tedster. Looks like a great case but from what I gather doesn't have a 5.25" bay (I only need one!). I did consider an external DVD drive so I could use the Corsair H110i GT in the Silent Base 800, which I could also do with this case, but it's not ideal! I don't ask much do I! :)

 

Honestly, researching components for this build has been fairly easy, except for the case!! :)

 

Thanks again for your input

The NZXT h630 it is a full tower tho you can put the h100i on the bottom which is nice too

Thanks for your suggestions. The NZXT H630 looks good. Not sure the H110i GT will fit, will have to check up! More suggestions welcome!
