The first thing to mention is that the Silent Base 800 case will pretty much support anything that you might want to put in a system of this size. There is official support for ATX, Micro ATX, and mini-ITX motherboards, however, I was able to put an E-ATX...

The real question with the Silent Base 800 is whether the features that it offers are actually needed. If you're spending more than $100 on a case, chances are slim that the rig is ultra noisy in the first place, a fact amplified by the obsession with lo...
The Be Quiet! Silent Base 800 hits most of check-boxes I look for in a >US$100 case. While not made of the thickest material, they somehow managed to make it feel better built than it is. The side panels are especially worthy of praise, fitting so well I ...
The Silent Base 800 is a stylish and quiet choice for users who want to combine the look and price of a full tower with the component space of a mid-tower. Removable/repositionable drive cages make room for larger motherboards and longer cards but red...

The be quiet! Silent Base 800 Case is one of the most unique cases I have had the pleasure to take apart and set up for a testing scenario. With the options of open or closed 3-in-1 air intakes on both side panels of the computer case and having the lower...
This is a case that combines excellent performance, good looks and quiet operation. It also has a lot of add-ons that really give it flexibility. That said, there are lapses as well. We expect that be quiet! will fix those small lapses, and bring out a ...
Abstract: Bold and sassy pretty much sums up the Be Quiet! Silent Base 800 Case. There's lots of space to work, plenty of drive bays, water-cooling potential, looks awesome, great build quality and has acoustic dampening material....
High quality materials, Quiet operation, Modern and Elegant styling, Easy to install your build, Extraordinary quality grommets and rubber parts, Plastic Molded in color with black interior
May need to use a Y-connector for fan connection to motherboard, Front skeleton obstructs the front 140 fans and could be a source of wind noise, Fingerprints easy, Not silent, but quiet, Thanks for reading
The case as tested ran at a very low 28 C and bumped up to a high of 49 C while I was running Fur mark burn in and also used 3D Mark 11 to over work the CPU and get things toasty inside. In both instances the case stayed reasonably quiet and reasonably co...
