Quiet, feature-rich yet expensive: Silver Award
The UK tech blog pcGameware has reviewed the be quiet! Silent Base 600, the smaller version of the Silent Base 800.

Silent Base 600 is a good case, it’s good looking, well made and does a good job of keeping your components cool. But with only one intake fan (come on be quiet!, that’s a bit
stingy!) and a price of approximately £90, it still feels a little too expensive for my liking.” to the article » |
