    Great review. I can imagine people specifically asked for a Silent Base version without front bays and fancy experimental stuff that probably drives up the price. This isn't cheap though, we'll see how it goes. I like BQ! unique case designs. Interesting how the mobo tray doesn't go up to the roof, makes me wonder how BQ! would make an meshify or completely open case.....

    Thanks Leo. I was looking forward to finding out more about this case. But I see now it doesn't have an optical bay, it doesn't come with Silent Wings 3 fans, and it should have been an inch taller. I think I will pass. Thanks for the time lapse video.

    I noticed you installed the PSU with the fan up, any particular reason? Does the case require that extra ventilation maybe?

    • @KitGuruTech
      @KitGuruTech  6 років тому +5

      With this case it is probably six of one and half a dozen of the other. The case is filtered at the bottom and the PSU shroud is heavily perforated so it feels like you have the PSU eitehr way up. Incidentally the PSU fans turns pretty darn slowly and proably makes little difference to case airflow.

    I've been looking forward to be quiet cases that were shown at computex being released. I don't want a rgb case, that's my preference. The other thing with a case i like this the option for more than 2 or 3 3.5 inch hdds. It is really hard to find a case that holds 4 hdds and no rgb. Thing I don't like is the top seems to have no dust fliter which is annoying considering how well thought out the other filters are.

    • @enterthehyuver4747
      @enterthehyuver4747 6 років тому

      If you need case with lot of storage, i'd find older case that has lots of drive cages and put old hardware in it and run it as NAS.
      Seems like rgb no rgb the case trend going forward would be like this, where the hdd cage would be placed at bottom instead of stackable.
      It drive me nuts why it's so hard to find a reasonable priced case with 6x 3.5inch hdd. My storage needs is getting bigger and bigger every years goes by and now case manufacturer thinks we only need 2-3x 3,5 drive.

    • @whyjay9959
      @whyjay9959 3 роки тому +1

      I've been shopping for a case lately and even needing room for three 3.5'' drives and one 2.5'' has been pretty limiting... And I'm also a little concerned about the unfiltered top opening. Might put an outtake fan under it or just block it.

    One question. What a RGB motherboard and a RGB graphic card is looking inside a case without glass panel? Isn’t aesthetically just dumb?

    • @KitGuruTech

      On the other hand it would make the video a bit dull. When the panels come off there has to be something to see, otherwise you might get bored.

    Nothing new maybe, but the front panel pull up solution instead of the old school rip off what every case uses a big deal on its own. Even the define 7 era uses that rip off thing and they are newer cases... another great thing with the bequiet is the unique hdd rack thing, its very good cuz this way u can just take out the whole hdd rack from the bottom, and u have plenty of space for psu cables, u just cant do this with another case this easy and seamless, and those extra hdd racks very good quality and more secure, not just plain thin metals like the fractal holders. I just say so clever things are present on this case (and overall in bequiet cases) they very underrated, i have a feelin that bequiet pays more attention of details than any other manufacturer in the market. Fractal doing good cases too, but i always have some complain with them opposite to bequiet. (like the new define 7 compact which has bad positioned crews in tha back, so u cant manage main cables so easy, and the front panel is an old school rip off method what is a big nono for me i just hate that to see in 2021...)

    • @KitGuruTech
      @KitGuruTech  6 років тому +1

      No it's fine - the fan cannot go on the right hand side as it fouls the nearest module of memory so it is on the left in Pull rather than Push.

    • @donkeysunited
      @donkeysunited 6 років тому

      Have a look at the Alpenfohn Brocken 3 cooler on overclockers - it's offset so it can accommodate memory of any size but I'm not sure if it can handle heavily overclocked Intel CPUs. I like the cooler, it runs fairly quiet and was easy to install. Plus it provides a long magnetic screwdriver which was very useful for my build. All at a good price.

    Isn't that cpu fan on the wrong side? Very unsusual, I have also been quite suprised by the heat in several of the review videos, like 80-95 celcius, thats not normal for most. I think most gamers would want to stay between 60-75, at prolonged stress test maybe lower 80s for gpu.
