i have a friend who is gonna do some huge overhauls to his build starting with this case and me and him are wondering is it quiet?

 

he is gonna have a

4670 cpu

2 7870 he has one already

1 2tb hdd 

stock fans

and possibly a h100 in the future how quiet will this be without modding anything

 

also fan controller might be needed so he can adjust the noise levels himself

main rig: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/GFvH7P

next upgrades. h440 . 8320.  possible liquid cooling AIO

Fyi, the H100 comes with loud fans. Replace them if he gets one.

if you say that he'll get noctua fans, then i don't see why it wouldn't be quiet
 

the only other thing that you could do to that case is add those noise absorbing foams if you care that much about the noise - even with noctuas :P

Check out the build: Used to be Obot, now Lilith

Shameless: Me
