250D ... is it quiet?

So i am thinking of radically changing my few on which case to get.

I was thinking, 750D .. but then i thought.. LANPARTIES and went looking for a good cube/mini case.

Since my preference is towards Corsair, the 250D quickly got my attention.

 

After checking some vids and stuff, its clear that all my other shit will fit into it (H100i, EVGA 780 ACX, Dominator 8GB etc..), but will it still be quiet?

I am not to worried about the cooling, since i wont do much overclocking, but i WILL be playing some high end games like BF4 and SC Dogfighting Module .... so it'll probably stress the system a bit.

 

Any ideas?

It doesn't talk much but... It sure does make a scene.

It will be relatively quiet.  But then again noise mostly counts on the components/fans you have

for silence optimized cases, you might want to look at the fractal design cases. They have insulation in them to help dampen noise, and I can't really hear my system unless I fire up a demanding game or really stress the CPU, and the CPU noise is really only because the fans for my radiator are mounted on the top.

obviously it will be louder than a bigger case because you're putting 400w in a shoebox. with good components and a good amount of air going through the case it shouldn't be too loud.
