I have looked at more cases then i care to mention so i'm looking for some
feedback from others who have taken the steps to buy a quieter case and had
good results, I'd like to keep the price below £100 but to be honest i think
i may need to spend more like £150 but that is the max i will spend, if you
need any more info from me just let me know.
HDs click, not vibrate. Listen to them with a screwdriver tip placed
unobtrusively qurg the handle at your ear. These days, it's fans,
plenty of them, and 120mm variants. Two optionally into the front
grill below 4 exposed 5.25 bays, a rack for 8 3.5 hidden bays. Two to
the other side of the MB and another topside. One more by way of
backside augmentation above the bottom-mount, sheet bracketing for the
PS. Didn't run much either, including at least one 120mm fan,
probably under $50US shipped to the lower Savannahs. Will need take
it apart and consider where another, probably two, are most advantage
as temperatures rise into a scorcher. The included is 3-way
adjustable, but entirely variable across the RPM range is also keen;-
I'd much rather that than any fixed fan.
Let's see... imagine one will definitely go across 3 HDs, I'll move
into adjacency for a tighter profile and actively-cooled array, one on
the side opposite to the CPU, both instances pulling, then the PS and
another either directly topside or backplane top for exhausting with
those pushing. No need to drop a lot of jack -- reasonable case
prices for the most come expected from any half-sufficient brandname,
an modicum added for regard and reviews likely to be well within
fortitude it's an efficient design implementation. Trick, I suppose,
is getting a number of good quality fans at some reasonable discount,
if not for nothing and included as a better showcase, presumably then
under the price of the case outlay.
