PC Case with window

Overview

Ultra quiet, ultra functional and ultra powerful

In the pure tradition of the be quiet! Silent Base range, the Silent Base 802 is a large tower PC case conceived and designed to favour performance and silence. Its simple design and ease of use make it extremely versatile and capable of accommodating all types of configurations, from the latest gaming PC to the quiet and discrete home cinema PC. With its many noise-cancelling features, it has impeccable sound insulation that will make you forget that your PC is on. Its stress-free mounting system and clever cable management make for a comfortable and ergonomic installation. The Silent Base 802 is an ideal case for gamers and users looking for silence.

Interchangeable top panel and front panel

The be quiet! Silent Base 802 offers you the advantage of being able to adapt to your needs for design, silence or performance. To this end, it offers two types of top panel and two types of front panel. The first solid panel perfectly complements the design of the Silent Base 802 and ensures quiet operation. The second mesh panel is much more air permeable, allowing it to maximise ventilation and watercooling performance.

The interchangeable front panels also contribute to the design, silence and cooling performance of the system. The standard front panel allows you to enjoy more silence while the mesh front panel favours the airflow to get more performance from your components while ensuring low temperatures.

A case for everything that doesn't make a sound

The be quiet! Silent Base 802 PC case can accommodate up to seven fans, three of which are natively mounted (three Pure Wings 2 140 mm fans). The design of the air inlets guarantees superior cooling performance. Also compatible with watercooling systems, with front, top and rear slots, the Silent Base 802 has an easy top-mounted radiator installation system to simplify your installation.

The Silent Base 802 is guaranteed to be a silent cathedral. The front and sides are equipped with extra thick damping mats of up to 10 mm , which allow for maximum stability and superb noise reduction capabilities.The decoupled PSU support, motherboard tray and hard drive cages also minimise vibration. The Silent Base 802's body is made entirely of metal, which ensures the stability of the case and improves haptic perception.

Case ingenuity for your system performance


The Silent Base 802 is an ingenious enclosure. It offers a wide range of functions and clever features that allow you to configure your E-ATX, ATX, Micro-ATX or Mini-ATX PC in almost any way. It allows you to install a 432mm long graphics card and a 185mm high fan. It is simply the ideal base for creating your powerful system. It is extremely versatile in design and has a dual hard drive rack. Its functional power supply cover perfectly covers the cables as well as the power supply unit. By removing the small cover, you can install a 360 mm or 420 mm heatsink at the front. The power supply unit can be easily installed from the back using the bracket for the magnet.

On the I/O panel you will find a USB 3.1 Type C connector which allows you to use all your latest hardware. Finally, the 4-stage fan controller will allow you to manually adjust the speed of up to six fans or connect them all to a single PWM signal.

    Super flexible and affordable

    A really top-notch box, silent, flexible and modular.
    It's very imposing, but allows you to work very comfortably.

    not quiet at all

    We had to replace the fans with much quieter Noctua fans, but the processor fan is still a bit noisy.

    to the top

    A very nice box, certainly imposing but I wanted space inside, and I got it. However, I had underestimated the space outside, I had to cut shelves to free up space. I went on the net several times to look at the videos and find the instructions.

    a little disappointed

    it misses the covers for the optional dd of the screw and a ventilator I do not think that it is due to ldlc surement a return at Be quiet which was not labelled and left in delivery supplier ldlc was correct proposed to me to return another one and pays the expenses of return of the first one to see the continuation if others like me have e_atx the card hides the 3 holes of passage cables to 3/4

    A solid reference

    Boiter bought to replace an NZXT H510 Elite for its cooling capacity after the acquisition of an AMD 7900XTX.
    Having owned Be Quiet!'s first case, the Silent Base 800, I can't help but notice the great progress the brand has made in terms of design and construction since 2014.

    The Silent Base 802 is a solid, rigid enclosure that offers plenty of workspace and impressive modularity.
    The vast majority of operations on this product can be carried out without tools: unlocking panels with a press button, front panel 'clipped' onto rail, top panel fixed by like. The power supply is installed using a plate that enables it to be fitted and removed quickly from outside the enclosure.
    The accessories supplied make a major contribution to this modularity: a front panel and a mesh to replace the solid panels on the front and top of the enclosure.
    It is also possible to mount the case in reverse ATX (although this is debatable given the mass of graphics cards available today).
    The slot for 3 fans on the top of the product is mounted on a rail that can be extracted from the case for easy mounting or maintenance of a radiator and/or fans.

    When fitted with 2 additional Pure Wings 140 fans, silence is largely assured, with only the maximum speed making itself slightly audible.
    The integrated rheobus allows 6 3-pin fans to be connected, and has 3 speeds accessible from the top of the case, in addition to an "AUTO" position allowing the fan speed to be controlled via a PWM socket on your motherboard.

    A very marginal negative point, given the 'closed' nature of this case: we regret Be Quiet!'s pettiness in not supplying the 5 covers for the HDD rail mounting slots present on the window version, which can be purchased separately at a dissuasive unit price.
