It might just be me but this seems a be vague. Are you after the most fan positions? The least restrictive for fans? Best positioning? IDK. What other components do you need to put in the case? What other requirements do you have of the case

Be Quiet silent base 600

All 13 of these I would consider fantastic cases. Though they do have their strengths and weaknesses.

The Fractal Design r5, fractal design define S, Phantex p400 nzxt h440 and the be quite case would all be considered quite cases as they include sound dampening foam on the panels. The rest are still good. You really need to work out what you want to put into it and watch some reviews for each for the full list of pros and cons so you can decide what you want and what you are willing to sacrifice. Also which ones looks the best for you or works the best in your setup
