Quiet mid tower case

[Alesek]

Hello,

I am looking for a new mid tower case which will be quiet. So far I really like Fractal Design Define S, because there is so much room for activities, it looks good, and the drives are on a side. However, I am not going to use watercooling for at least another year, so I probably do not need as much room as it offers. 

 

Do you have any other suggestions I could look at? I'd prefer if it has fan control (if possible) as my motherboard only take 4 sys fans and I want it to be as silent as possible  My budget is 100 euros

 

edit: I forgot to mention that my GPU is huge - 308mm

why not buy it? even if you're not planning to watercool, it's a damn good case. ATX air builds are usually lots of wasted space. So, if you don't need a tiny machine just go for the define S

I was just wondering what are my other options, maybe one with fan control. But if I dont find anything better, I will be happy to go with define s.

 

Edit: so I decided for the Define S, because I can't find anything better. Is there any way I can put a fan controller in it as it doesnt have 5.25" bay?

Phanteks S400 should be pretty silent. (havent tried it myself.) 
(diffrence between the 400 and S400 is that the S400 got sound dampening foam.)

I was thinking more about the Pro M but I think Define S still wins
