Far From Silent
Pros
Lots of room, ergonomic to build into
Cons
Of the 3 PCs I've owned, the one in case is the loudest.
Recommended it?
No
I built a PC into this case and it did not come out so very silent as all the hype led me to believe. It definitely is a thoughtfully designed case with solid construction and good ergonomics, but by the time I was done with it, it whined as much as any PC I'd ever owned. My last Dell was quieter, as is the other home-build PC I have, which went into a Lian-Li case. I am very happy with the computer overall but I can't give this case high marks for its primary selling point: silence. Perhaps this is the fault of the components I used, but I did buy a "quiet" power supply as well and I even treated the interior of the case with some supplementary sound dampening material. Without being a build-you-own expert, all I can offer is my anecdotal experience that this case was not a silver bullet for me. The door also broke off within the first week of use. Flimsy plastic hinge point snapped right off almost immediately.
