Posted December 29, 2016 I'm thinking about getting a new case to replace the generic box my pc is currently in and my main criteria is quietness. Not overly fussed about airflow as my i5 6600k doesn't get very hot but I do need a case that looks good for under 100 pounds ($120). If anyone has any ideas I would be happy to hear them. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that, I do like the look of the h440 - seems like a very nice case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted December 29, 2016 I'd go H440. DBP 900 would be an option but it's VERY expensive. Lenovo Ideapad 720s 14 inch ------ One day I'll have a desktop again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree the Define C looks really nice and looks reasonably quiet but the dark base is just a little too expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it looks like a toss up between the h440 and the fractal design C for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted December 29, 2016 I think pretty much any case is quiet at idle, as long as the fan itself aren't loud. I have temper case(460x) at the moments and the noise different from R5 won't noticeable at load as well. I have notcua fans for AIO and custom fan curve for rest of the case fan which won't allow them to go over 50% which keep the noise down. Magical Pineapples
