Phanteks Evolv ATX Tempered Glass owners?

Any owner of Phanteks Evolv ATX Tempered Glass case? I'm interested in sound isolation in this case, I mean, is it loud? Sound is leaking much?

I'm not a owner, but I would think with It's thick  tempered glass with foam/rubber dampening material in some areas that it is a relatively quiet case.  That is to say, not as quiet as a silence optimized case with bitumen panels and no windows, but more quiet that a standard full window pc...

Sure, not quiet as dampening-material-all-over-it case but I would like to know is it quieter than some window cases or even Evolv ATX.

I've got one with a Kraken X61 in it along with the 3 supplied fans that came with the case, and it's pretty damn quiet.  Miles beyond my old case, for sure, and it was a Antec P180 which was "super quiet" for the time.

 

Do I hear it when it's on my desk? Barely.  Do I care about barely hearing the fans when I'm just working and not gaming?  No.  I wear headphones when I game, so even the GPU fans or the CPU AIO pump and fans ramping up don't affect me.

 

If I manually ramp up the fans and water pump to 100% then I can definitely hear it, but I've yet to hear them through my headphones even when running Doom for a few hours, and I can't say the same about my old setup.

 

I'm going to be installing a Kraken G10 and X41 on the GPU next week to see if I can tame the temps on the FE 1070, and I'm pretty sure it's not going to affect the noise generated much if at all compared to the stock fans.

Thanks! That's a good info! I really don't want loud machinery on my table in a room where I sleep or to annoy my girlfriend :)
