    Bought 3 times, one problem

    The only problem I have encountered with this case is common to all those with a usb-3 connector?it is possible that the connector will come loose when unplugged. Otherwise, the airflow is good, I added 4 fans to the original layout to guarantee it.

    This is Be Quiet!

    I was looking for a more sober and functional box than a Christmas tree all year round. RGB all over the place, no.
    - Functional: 4 usb ports on the front; for simulations and/or connecting laptops, external hard drives etc, it's perfect. No risk of breakage when removing the panels; the clips are costal and there is no wired connection between the external power/reset buttons.
    - Design: I find it aesthetic and sober.
    - Noise: difficult to say, it depends on your fans. I replaced the single 900rpm front fan with two 1500rpm fans. From my impression, I hear them less than the rear one.
    I recommend it!

    Velvet

    I really have nothing to say about this case, everything has been well thought out from start to finish, it's practical, it's beautiful, it's sober, you can change the opening side of the door, there are cable passages everywhere and places to put your serflexes to the right and to the left... it's a real pleasure to mount a PC with it!

    You can adjust the opening of the side doors (there is a clip system of the central square with various notches, from completely open to completely closed), there are three speeds for the two fans installed in the front panel: inaudible in low, barely audible in medium and audible (but not a blower either) in high.

    The power supply slot has multiple rubber pads to dampen power supply vibrations. The side doors are lined with sound-absorbing foam on the inside... the spacers on which the motherboard sits are already in place, the dust filters can be removed in 2-2...

    Really great. The only minor drawback is that there could be a bit more screws and bolts just in case (I remember an Antec case I bought years ago that came with a good 100g of various screws), but there's still enough to install everything. And super quiet!

    A very good case, few imperfections

    The case is very good. The interior layout is very easy, there is a lot of space, the cable routing is well organised, the mounting of the discs is perfect and in use the case is really very quiet.


    Two drawbacks
    The exterior plastic is not very good (it looks a bit cheap) and you can feel that the front plate fasteners could break when you take it apart.
    The fans provided are good but not pwm.

    Very correct tower

    A pure Be Quiet product!

    Advantages :
    - Quiet as promised, no vibrations
    - Voltage control for fans not controlled by the motherboard
    - Simple and well finished design
    - All components are accessible without too much difficulty
    - Well done manual, detailing all possible operations
    - Filters (one on the bottom and one on the front) easily accessible (no need to disassemble the tower) for cleaning

    Disadvantages :
    - Front door magnet totally useless: the door hangs down if the tower is tilted a bit
    - Front and top panels are fixed with clips that are very difficult to detach (it feels like they will break if you force them too much)
    - A fan should be provided for the top

    Satisfied.

    I find this tower ergonomic. It is designed for a quiet configuration. The cable trays are practical. The anti-dust system is easy to clean.

    I've been using it for a while now, but it's been a while since I've had a chance to use it, so I'm not sure I'll be able to use it again.
    I've been using it for a while now, but it's not a good idea to dismantle it.

    Practical case

    Practical and well optimised case. Lots of space inside. When I unpacked it, I found it huge!
    By combining the right components and fine-tuning the fan curves, the case remains quiet and evacuates heat well. The access to the filters is quite well thought out
    Attention, the fans provided are in DC (3 pins) and not in PWM (4 pins) it's a shame. If you want to drive them, you need a motherboard that manages the 3 and 4 pin controllers. This last point does not detract from the case which is well finished and of excellent quality.

    FAIRLY WELL DESIGNED

    This PC case is indeed quite well designed and allows a system SSD to be housed on a side panel, thus leaving room for the mounting of several hard drives. The goal of a "quiet case" is achieved. A huge cooling system can be accommodated on the processor, as the case is so large. All of this is not fancy with this uniform black case, we are in the functional!
