Very good box
Very good case, lots of space inside, fan speed control and very quiet.
Thanks LDLC

Very nice case, easy to use.
The panels can be removed easily, the motherboard installation is easy, everything is modular.
Supplied with BeQuiet fans, it is quiet.
The air filter is practical.
The only downside is that if the fans are connected to the drive, you can't set the temperature of the fans.
Well-designed housing for the management cable,
Good airflow with 2 x 140 BeQuiet! Shadow wings 2 in the front and a 120 BeQuiet! Shadow wings 2 in the back.
Not using HDD (only SSD M2 Pcie 4) the 3 HDD cages are removable.
It's sober and solid.
The case is very practical for mounting, well finished. The only drawback I can see is the sound. It doesn't isolate the noise of the fans perfectly. The 2 fans supplied are very quiet at minimum speed (position 1 on the front panel), but can be heard as soon as they are turned to position 2 or 3. And the graphics card is also very audible when it is running at full load.
A very versatile and quiet case with convenient connectivity and manual fan management is a big plus.
BUT if you plan to install an AIO watercooling system forget the 280mm! Although the top surface has slots for 240, 280 or 360, the wider slots for 280 are on top of the motherboard, only 4cm away, which is incompatible with the thickness of a radiator and the fans of a watercooler. I'm experiencing this with the new AIO from Be Quiet which doesn't fit. It's a pity because the 280mm is much quieter...
An excellent case with a silent but still efficient airflow and scalability. The fan speed control is very practical and the headphone and microphone jacks are of good quality, which is an important criterion in my eyes.
Two small but minor drawbacks for my taste:
1) the weakness of the tabs holding the top plate (either they don't hold well and the plate falls down, or you have to pull them apart by hand and you feel that it might break) so I ended up removing it but it's open to dust since there is no mesh
2) the bottom grid with mesh does not allow the installation of a fan to optimize the air flow towards the CG. This would have been a plus. I was able to install one by tinkering but it only has half of it over the opening.
I've been using it for a while now and it's a great way to get a lot of airflow. it's a great way to get a lot of airflow and it's a great way to get a lot of airflow.
The air circulation is well studied, the box is large and leaves a lot of space inside.
The only downside is that the lugs on the front panel and the top cover are made of brittle plastic.
I received the box quickly and in perfect condition. Plenty of space as I wanted. Modular and practical. I chose it for its sobriety and I have no complaints about the finish. The air circulation is very well designed.
A very nice case overall, we like the soundproofing, we deplore the system of fixing the 3.5" racks. Be careful with the fan speed selector, at low speed the fans may not start with the machine.
Good value for money, bravo Be Quiet, bravo LDLC!
Well-considered tour.
Simple but effective, so well thought out.
Silent, I don't hear it despite the 8 fans in operation.
The only problem is that I'm still looking for the connectors for the HDD LED and the buzzer.

Room to 'try' to stow cables properly.
The hard drives are really mounted on rubber blocks, no vibrations transmitted to the case.
On my previous case I had to mount the drive cage on original model aircraft engine silent-blocks, it's a bit of a fiddle but it's effective.
The original fans do their job without noise.
Only small drawback, the access to the filters of the front face obliges to dismount the sides to remove it (Or I misunderstood), so the cleaning is a little bit difficult.
The delivery was perfect, the box was not damaged, it was fast, nothing to say.
For the case, very good quality, a lot of space, modular, for its price, 2 fans of the brand, the silence is there.
Quality case, well designed and quiet. In my humble opinion there is no need to put more into a camera. Pragmatic in construction, it does everything a camera should do and does it well, no unnecessary frills.
I bought this box to put a simple configuration inside. However, the box is not very expensive and is not perfect!
Positive points :
- The box is very quiet!
- it is also of good quality
- the left and right panels are easy to remove and replace.
Negative points :
- the 2.5 SSD mounts on the back of the motherboard are too tight to fit a Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB which is 6.8mm high ... see with thinner ssd ! As a result, my ssd is scratched in all directions ... !
- The hard disk operation led on the front is really too powerful.
Personally, I wouldn't take this box anymore and Be Quiet has disappointed me a bit on this product!
The case is extremely well designed (most parts are easily removable) and it is therefore possible to store components and cables perfectly.
The interior is spacious enough to install a watercooler without disturbing the rest of the components.
Excellent impression of quality and quiet.
The only drawback is that the power supply, although from the same brand (delivered separately) does not fit "perfectly". One of the screws is at an angle.
The case is relatively narrow and the power cables of the hard disks are very close to the side panel.
Finally, the side panels are quite difficult to fit.
