Hey guys, I'm lookin to buy a new case soon. I was wondering what you all thought about the Be Quiet Silent Base 800 Windowed. I really love the looks of this case. Currently im using the NZXT Phantom 410, this is a really nice case, just wanting a change. I am also thinking about putting the NZXT Hue+ in the SB 800, any opinions on it as well?

I'm very paranoid when it comes to dust filters...

 

I don't know about the case but make sure it has dust filters EVERYWHERE...!!! >.>

From what I've seen on Newegg, it does! That's one of the only things I hate about my Phantom 410, very hard to clean all the fans.

One of two cases I wouldn't feel compelled to change the stock fans. The other is the Silent Base 600.

 

I'd rather buy a Define R5 or S if I was looking for an ATX silence optimized case, but the Silent Base 800 is not at all a bad option.

I'll have to check those two cases out, never heard of them. Thanks!
