It's a good case, though you will want to remove the two Corsair fans in there if you want it to be quiet.
Kayden Gomez
Get a define S
Joseph Sullivan
This is the fan I want to buy too
Josiah Cooper
200R is a better case IMO, and usually found for cheaper.
Thomas Howard
if you want a slient pc just buy a regular build and buy a 20m displayport cable
Lincoln Bailey
But its not silent proof as far as I know
Jayden Davis
Check if that case has any sound cancelling foam inside. If it doesn't, get what he said, but make sure it has that material in it. Combined with noctua fans it's pretty fucking quiet.
Cameron Lee
>20+ dollars a fan
but why tho
Blake Hernandez
It doesnt specific if its foam or not, just noise canceling materials
Isaac Reyes
not OP but is noctua the best? silence doesnt matter for me, i just care about the best cooling (air). willing to spend whatever.
Caleb Hughes
why don't you just go to your local hobby/craft store and buy a sheet of 5mm foam for $5 and spray glue it onto your existing case? you're just overpaying for bullshit if you already have a case.
Jackson Rogers
Noctua fans don't compare to the Fractal Design Venturi series fans they're 140mm fans that can fit into 120mm fan slots
Also you'll want a sentry mix 2 fan controller
Juan Diaz
i mean i prefer air. uneasy about water cooling.
Camden Bennett
Pretty good when you can get them for a good price. Austrian engineering at its finest.
Dylan Collins
If you want a silent PC, take out the stock fans. They sound like jet engines on my brother's build.
James Diaz
that's not an FT02
Oliver Diaz
there's a dedicated threads for this shit
Parker Watson
Get a master liquid 240
Otherwise HR-22/Le Grand Macho

Do NOT try to build a silent PC. You'll soon realize that "silent" and "air-cooled" do not go together in any meaningful way. If you want actually silent cooling, go get yourself a liquid cooled case.
Trust me, as someone who has that exact case.
Jeremiah Cruz
Liquid coolers have pump noise, the only way for true silence is a massive heat sink
Angel Davis
No.

Or that, plenty of people have cheap fan 4 packs that are fine, you just want a fan controller

I don't get that problem on an Fractal R4 unless the CPU is under 100% load only then can I hear the CPU fans.
Connor Foster
oh man, Thermal right. They used to make massive copper heatsinks that weighted like 6 pounds.
Lincoln Foster
This is wrong. I have a fractal design mini with 6 800rpm case fans. Case temp is about the same as room temp and the PC isn't audible below the desk.
The important thing is that ALL fans have to be quiet, if one fan (ie: PSU, CPU fan) is loud then the PC will be loud no matter what.
Henry Wilson
thanks
Charles Lopez
Spending $22 on a case fan is full retard. You can get fluid bearing fans from other brands like fractal or bitfenix for like $10 that perform identically.
Jaxson Phillips
its also about fan blade design
Blake Peterson
FT02 stronk
Zachary Roberts
No not really, you will accomplish the same overclocks and same noise levels with either, it's not worth paying an extra $50 on your build on gay pink fans. I have 2 noctuas (given to me), 2 fractals and 2 bitfenix in my build and they are all pretty much the same thing, all have lasted over 5 years of constant use.
You're better off putting that money towards something else like a bigger hsf and just turning down the fan speeds.
Jeremiah Thompson
Its not always about noise levels, its about air flow they create.
Michael Russell
you dont actually believe that shit do you?
Evan Green
No, I dont believe in physics.
Adrian Jones
If you don't plan on doing some crazy overclocking, I have seen people find a case that has a lot of passive air cooling (vents all around) and put on a massive passive cpu heatsink and like a 200 or 300mm fan in the front of the case that spins at very low speeds to get some airflow across the components. Slow enough that it does not generate any noise from airflow or bearings. That and dual passive fanless power supplies (one for GPU, one for the rest of the system) since 500+ W fanless PSUs are too expensive.
I have seen systems like this in person and they beat out all of those quiet cases and have decent temps.
Eli Green
When you have 6 case fans it doesn't matter that a fan that costs twice as much pushes 2cfm more. I can flat out just turn off 2 of my case fans and have the same case temps.
There is a point of diminishing returns.
Carson Thompson
Fans like this also help to not blow dust around everywhere.
When you are spending $300 on a nice case, what's another $50 for nicer fans?
All the small things will add up
Austin Wright
$300 case is fucking retarded too. Define mini is like $90, and it has dust filters.
Flush your money down the toilet.
Zachary Reyes
but clearly you believe their marketing bullshit
Sebastian Watson
I have a PC with Noctua NH-D15 and 4 Noctua case fans in Corsair 400Q, the only thing I can hear is HDD.
Jackson Morgan
I have one of those fans, you can clearly feel the air move in a straight column up.
Normal fans blow off to the side, and have a dead spot directly above them
Joshua Lewis
oh you can 'feel' the air move different! that changes everything
I have a couple more things for you to 'feel' if you're interested ;)
Mason Gutierrez
Not an argument retard
Oliver Thompson
your feelings are not arguments either :^)
Brody James
Alexander Rivera
>marketing bullshit
>he doesn't know the difference between Static Pressure fans to an Air Flow fan
lurk more
Asher Clark
Don't get that one unless you have a poorfag build.
Andrew Collins

wow ur objective sources are killing me
Anthony Garcia
Forgot to add, try Phanteks P400S.
Anthony Martinez
All that truly matters are delta fans
Nolan Perry
Reminds me of my Tornado fan
Luke Harris
The only thing that should be killing is you, yourself your fat piece of human wanna be shit
Cameron Bell
wow, you get so angry defending the expensive fan purchase you made
I am sorry you are angry
Thomas Carter
Cant you just isolate your case with fomy covers?
What could go wrong?
Dominic Ramirez
For $80 you might as well get a Fractal Design R4, those are quite good for silent computers
James Howard
Have you seen them at load, or OC'd?
