DECISIONS ( again )

SO THIS IS THE 50th TIME IM MAKING THIS THREAD AND I STILL HAVEN'T DEICED..

On one side, there is the h440. Looks GREAT with my build. Nice SSD mounting point, PSU shroud etc. Mid tower.

On the other, there's the Be Quiet Silent Base 800 / 600. Quiet as HELL with amazing fans on it. However..

The Be Quiet is my preffered option. It's much quiter and has much better build qualtiy.

The H440 however I have read mineaswell not me marketed as a quiet case. I am told there is no option for a fan controller and the fans run at 100% speed constantly It is apparently noisy and considering my pc would be next to me I wouldn't want that.

On the other hand, the be quiet case has an orange theme, and I'm not sure that would look good considering my build is red. It also has no PSU shroud which I don't like.

I am not prepared to spend £80 on be quiet quiet case fans just so I can have a quiet build. I would happily change the board, ram and GPU to orange ones if I could even find an orange motherboard that doesn't suck.

Ideas???

If you're jumping around so much and making threads its going to come down to you. Just pick one. If you dont like it send it back.

Hmmm.. why people concerned so much about color and quiet operation <- this one is a lil bit important though.

I mean just buy the one that u need.

If u keep thinking about that u will never have a case.

I will grab the H440. since i am playing using a headset.
To hell with Quiet..

And for you. grab the be quiet. dont concern yourself with color unless u want to take that case with you to everywhere you are going. and if u still insist then paint ur motherboard.
For me. Performance,quality and features comes first and the looks second.

For me, and probably many others, building a pc is almost as much about aesthetics as it is about performance and function. Why? Because you can have both, it isn't one or the other. For some, if not most people, there is a psychological effect about having a good looking pc that makes you enjoy or appreciate your new pc you spent all that money on even more.

As for the Be Quiet Silent Base 800, there is a black version.
