Best case for quiet build

[PaulPaul]

I am looking to improve my build with a huge emphasis on being as quiet as possible. 

Does anyone have any ideas on the best cases for this type of build. 

I will be air cooling so good air flow is very important.

Thankyou

h440 or define r5.

I own the h440 and love it though the cable management is a bit tight on the side

though i will say this... you cant have quiet and great air flow at the same time you have to compromise a bit

I wouldn't say that the H440 is that quiet, I also have one.

what fans and whats their speed. im literately a foot and a half from mine and barely hear it

I replaced the 3 front ones in mine with cougar higher pressure ones and slightly quieter. they run though the stock pwm control. and im running the h110i gtx cooler which is literately the loudest cooler on the market imo, still dont hear it(unless im playing games), and a msi 980ti

Cooler Master Silencio has lots of silent features

This really is dominated by the Define R5.

Look, when Puget Systems has tried literally all of the cases and this is the one they pick for the quietest top end pc's they make, you know it's the best.

Noctuas, there is literally nothing else running in my room so it's quite easy to hear.

I think you mean the non windowed version right? I'm planning to buy an R5 but don't know what version (window or not). Any recommandations regarding silence? Is the windowed a lot louder?

If you read the page I sent, you see that the windowed version was not notably louder. So yea.

Oh yeah I didn't check out the second page. That's quite impressive, I imagined it to be much louder in comparison. Might go with the window then
