I build PCs for fun as a hobby and the number of case fans and the fan quality included in the price of the case is a big factor in my purchase decision. Glad that you call out those details for our consideration.
Its not a bad showing.But, the Lancool 3 Is at this things discounted price(lancool 3 $140) There you also get 4 decent 140mm fans, and just a lot more it seems for the money.
I want to build a PC on a tight budget, what parts need to be sacrificed at the lowest cost? I'm considering saving the budget on the PC case. Does buying a cheap PC case affect performance significantly?
plus the option for NO rgb's is the sole reason I picked this case up over cheaper cases... I will always pay more if it means gettin rid of god awful childish rgb's
Greg, I appreciate how honest you are about your sponsorship and still are honest enough without being rude or disrespectful to Be Quiet!. I also really like the case, but wish it included a few more fans for the price. Great video and a great build to showcase the functionality of the case.
I love Be Quiet products. Best case I've bought for my PC was the Dark Base 600 several years ago, and it still going strong - Always nice to see the new stuff from Be Quiet and gives me idea's if I ever decide to upgrade
I love their stuff. Currently filled up my case with their Silent Wings 3, got a whisper quiet Dark Rock 4 and a completely silent effecient PSU straight power from them. Really good german products
Greg, I love your honest reviews about a lot of pc cases and components. Your channel has taught me a lot when I do another PC build when my current one is completely out dated. Keep up the great content!
Greg, I want to thank you for your videos. You fix or flop series has been immensely valuable knowledge to us all. Yesterday, my brother's PC made a loud popping noise when he turned it on, and we immediately suspected the PSU. It was thanks to your videos that we were able to trouble shoot by testing other components to see that the PSU was bad, and if it took anything with it. Luckily, it was just the PSU and we replaced it, but your videos gave us the confidence to troubleshoot and fix our problem without having to take it to a shop. Your channel is top notch dude, thank you seriously for all you do!
@@GregSalazarhey Sir. Thank you for your nice Video every day. I love it. Beside that I got a question to you. I want buy a ryzen 7800X3D With thermalright Phantom Spirit and RTx 4080 Super (32,8cm length). Would you for that With a pure base 500FX oder Shadow base 800FX? Thanks !
That's clean...speaking of clean, I should do some deep cleaning with my PC, even tho there a very little dust in it. Maybe I'll do that after my upgrade this Christmas/new years 🤔
A good computer case will stay with you for two to three builds. There is plenty of space in it, put a nice huge fan in the exhaust in the back for a nice 13/14th gen EATX board. The only thing I would have different is the shroud in the bottom, make the glass go down like 2/3 and the rest shroud. But that is me...
What a coincidence, I am thinking about upgrading from M-ATX to a larger case and was planning to buy a mid tower case but actually compact full tower like this one looks nice and not too bulky while providing a large space to work on.
I built a new PC last year and I really wanted a Be Quiet case. I have seen them many times on this channel and really liked them. I however couldn't get around the price and opted for another brand.
When you build a PC I think you should use all the slots it has to see if it has a good layout. i bought The 500dx and used every fan slot and hdd/ssd slot and it isn't a well thought out case it doesn't have the room for all the wires. Took me hours to get it neat enough to just fit everything. Now I tend to see if there are reviews on using the cases full capabilities vs just a quick build like you did, it tells the how the case truly is vs just a few parts. I think builds like this do a disservice to the customers since what happens if I want to upgrade later and add more stuff does it fit well? Or not? I think you should consider starting case reviews like you did here then adding more stuff to see how the case holds up.
Props (as always) for not calling it a review as to what you deem a conflict of interest. We all appreciate the transparency as it is lacking in our world today. I have a Corsair 400D which seems to do much of the same but at a lower price point. However, BeQuiet, once my wallet is ready, I'm coming for you.
Always great to see another video from your Greg. Whilst the price is high it does give space for much larger components like gpu’s which constantly seem to be increasing in size
I built a pc for my dad as a parting gift since me and my family moved to Indonesia. Case i bought was phanteks enthoo 719, thinking that it would last forever because of its high clearance. And of course 420mm aio.
@@lilspakk I just bought and built in a 800, buy the 802. This is NOT a $180+ case that theyre asking for. About 1/4 of the standoff screws were already stripped. Bad QC.
BeQuiet's newer version, the 802, does include hard drive cages (one for below, one above, plus slots for a bunch more), a nicer system for the sides to pop on and off, and a few other improvements.
I also like that this is not a flashy case with lots of rgb stuff, but the price is pushing it for me as much as I'd like to buy it tbh I've had pure bass 500 case for a couple of years and wanted to upgrade. If someone could recommended a similar case that is this spacious and minimalistic with a decent airflow, but below that price I'd really appreciate it
I built a be quiet build , i used the DX case with seven 140mm fans and a be quite AIO , not once have i heard any fan noise outta this build under normal gaming conditions. now if I lanunch cinebench and put my cpu under full load my cpu would only hit 74 c and i cud bearly hear the fans running , i would total recommend be quite products for cooling solutions
I suspect the airflow balance may be a bit off because the 3 front intake fans are restricted by the AIO radiator, meaning the 3 upper exhaust fans will probably pull from an unfiltered opening.
i think the price is justify...you get a really good i/o (place in the front of the case which i prefer) with front and top vent support 3x140mm fan and rear 1x140mm fan...and the fans that it come with is not a cheap fan, it is be quiet own product fan...have a lot of clearances with tons of feature that not a lot of other cases have in the same price range
Great video, also using a be quiet case for my secondary gaming system, the orange and black it had like 8 hard disk cage’s which i all took out, all nvme nowadays anyway. And it still weighs a ton. So not sure it matters for most average users that there is no hard drive cage and at least it is still optional.
Yo Greg love the video!! I build pcs for my job and as a hobby at home. I’m about to do a hardline water cooled upgrade to my pc. Your vids are some of my favorite things to watch so thanks for them!
just ordered this case 5 mins ago on Amazon for $93.00. I also just ordered a Thermaltake Liquid Freezer III 420 AIO for my R9 7900x because my NZXT Kraken 280 just isn't keeping it cool enough. I'm really hoping this will help my cpu temps.
Looks like a really nice case to build in. Plenty of space and airflow too. A bit of a shame about the price. But overall, it's another be quiet! W. Great video as always Greg!
The extra space inside is the main reason I modded my Cooler Master Centurion 590 and removed the 5.25" rack (NINE 5.25" slots) and added a custom-made bracket to the front, so I could install 3x 120mm fans (late 00's case, so many of the common "modern" features weren't there in that specific case. They were added in the next Centurion iteration and with the H.A.F. lineup). Plenty of room to install a LARGE graphics card (up to 450mm and with some extra room), and enough clearance for a 160mm CPU air cooler. Sure, no PSU basement, subpar cable routing (there is _some_ room for cable management, but it's not the best), but it does the job after some "minimal" modding.
I like the case design, I am one to not lean into RGB I prefer the solid blacks and silvers in a build. That being said the case is a bit pricy, it would have been nice to include the acoustics of it running at full load. Otherwise good video as always.
This case looks pretty neat. Also I respect you admitting the bias due to your sponsor to not be able to give a proper review. If I was going to get a pricy premium case it would probably be the Hyte Y70 Touch that just came out. That case looks so amazing.l with a really cool gimmick with the touch screen.
I'd love to get a case like this I bought a mid town musetek case last year that came with 6 semi rgb fans for $100 off Amazon but quickly realizing with a 3060 ti tri fan gpu and the need for a bigger cooler for my i7-1100k its getting tight so if I do come across the extra money I may have to grab the bare bone version of this case lol but love the insight and the build video and can't wait to see what you post next keep up the awesome work
Price aside that case is beautiful. I would love to see a custom water loop or even a dark rock elite paired with 4080 or 4090 with white rgb. That would look classic! Thanks for keeping it real Greg.
One relatively small but meaningful (for me) thing I'd like to know about cases when they're shown is how is the power button. Perhaps it is silly but I like a good power button that makes a sound when you push it in and you do have to push it in hopefully because I remember having a case that had this flimsy power button that made a limp "clack" -sound and didn't go down at all when you pushed it. So unsatisfying to power on and having to relive that disappointment everyday for years gave me a deep appreciation for a good power button.
I build PCs for fun as a hobby and the number of case fans and the fan quality included in the price of the case is a big factor in my purchase decision. Glad that you call out those details for our consideration.
And these are very good fans. I had some on my previous build and love them.
Its not a bad showing.But, the Lancool 3 Is at this things discounted price(lancool 3 $140) There you also get 4 decent 140mm fans, and just a lot more it seems for the money.

All I care about is looks and color
Have lian li case with cosair Fan
plus the option for NO rgb's is the sole reason I picked this case up over cheaper cases... I will always pay more if it means gettin rid of god awful childish rgb's
Your principled approach to your “build/not a review” is much appreciated. Keep up the good work!

I actually love how spacious it is, with all the new chonker cards they have I feel like it’s needed for future builds.
The entire build has great aesthetics! The mix of metallic colors with the flat black always gets me.

I appreciate how simple but sensible the PC case design is. And Greg's honesty is always great.
be quiet! and Fractal cases are so nice
Very nice case when on sale!
Nice case! great video!
This case is definitely inspired by the Lancool 3
Dominator always looks good
Only built my pc a couple months back and now you're making me want to build another 😂😂
That's clean...speaking of clean, I should do some deep cleaning with my PC, even tho there a very little dust in it.
Maybe I'll do that after my upgrade this Christmas/new years 🤔
Thanks for being honest that’s why I watch all your videos my friend
Your integrity is beyond reproach unlike few tech influencers.
Clean and sleek - love it!
Personally just when from an old nzxt to a 4000D airflow and more vents makes all the difference . Great video!

Very nice build. Love all the content and really informative, thank you!
Gotta love the start of this video with the mini peel away!
You know what else is high? Greg's hair.
What a coincidence, I am thinking about upgrading from M-ATX to a larger case and was planning to buy a mid tower case but actually compact full tower like this one looks nice and not too bulky while providing a large space to work on.
And the case has great airflow when it's empty. ✌️👉

Buisling pcs is like a calming and relaxing way to de-stress
Been waiting for a video for so long, thank you so much for the great video, good and relaxing after a long day,keep up the wonderful work.
This case is sick, keep up the content greg!
Like the case, even if it's a little pricey. Custom cables are a nice touch for the build, and looks great all around. Good stuff!
consider the silent base 802, also from be quiet, same size just a lot more features and far higher quality
@@lilspakk I just bought and built in a 800, buy the 802. This is NOT a $180+ case that theyre asking for.
About 1/4 of the standoff screws were already stripped. Bad QC.
@@Sercer25 thats what im sayin!
The week just got better! Thanks Greg!
BeQuiet's newer version, the 802, does include hard drive cages (one for below, one above, plus slots for a bunch more), a nicer system for the sides to pop on and off, and a few other improvements.
Whoa - Just finding this exact case at Newegg on sale! They must have listened to you!
build look clean, i love the paint job of that case
that black silver and red combo looks great
I loved the "classic" Corsair DIMMs
absolutely love this case, be quiet are awesone
Looks like a nice clean case.
I love this build 😊
Good build, good advice, good case. Just too bad about that price tag. Thanks for video, Greg!
I also like that this is not a flashy case with lots of rgb stuff, but the price is pushing it for me as much as I'd like to buy it tbh
I've had pure bass 500 case for a couple of years and wanted to upgrade.
If someone could recommended a similar case that is this spacious and minimalistic with a decent airflow, but below that price I'd really appreciate it
goat greg at it again...
I built a be quiet build , i used the DX case with seven 140mm fans and a be quite AIO , not once have i heard any fan noise outta this build under normal gaming conditions. now if I lanunch cinebench and put my cpu under full load my cpu would only hit 74 c and i cud bearly hear the fans running , i would total recommend be quite products for cooling solutions
I suspect the airflow balance may be a bit off because the 3 front intake fans are restricted by the AIO radiator, meaning the 3 upper exhaust fans will probably pull from an unfiltered opening.
do agree it is a nice case, RGB isn't a must. couple months the price will drop and it will be a good case for the $$$
Case definitely looks nice to build in.
Money is no issue for me and love the company and their products. Loved the DX500 but will definitely buy this case with my next build.
I was looking for a DX last year. Kept looking for almost 2 months. Everything was overpriced so I ended up with a Corsair 4000D.
i think the price is justify...you get a really good i/o (place in the front of the case which i prefer) with front and top vent support 3x140mm fan and rear 1x140mm fan...and the fans that it come with is not a cheap fan, it is be quiet own product fan...have a lot of clearances with tons of feature that not a lot of other cases have in the same price range
That’s one clean build, nice video like always!
Fun part of the day is having lunch and watching this video. 😂
You still made this a pretty build regardless of the extra empty space in the case. I should probably get some nice extension cables for my PC.
Great job Greg like always.
Just wanted to say that I’ve learned a lot of troubleshooting tips from your channel, so keep making these great videos 👍.
Should I go for an AIO or air cooling if I use my PC once or twice a week
Great video, also using a be quiet case for my secondary gaming system, the orange and black it had like 8 hard disk cage’s which i all took out, all nvme nowadays anyway. And it still weighs a ton. So not sure it matters for most average users that there is no hard drive cage and at least it is still optional.
I like this build and that gpu looks really nice!
I really like those red wires against all that black
Nice case. I love the fd graphics cards. i been wanting one for a while. So sleek.
Nice build. Would have liked a all be quiet cooling and power supply.
that case is a beast
What a beautiful build :)
it looks amazing! Really great
6:39 We need an extra video now where you try to put on the back panel with one finger.
Love the video. Been looking for a case for about a year.
Wow, surprised by the huge amount of space that's left. I'd love to see a build like this in white.
new case with older parts? i like it, looks beautiful
Well excited to see water cooling in this case.
i enjoy your content a lot , keep the good work

I will say, even though it is a chunky case, there is so much room for activities inside of it. Great video sir.
The extra space inside is the main reason I modded my Cooler Master Centurion 590 and removed the 5.25" rack (NINE 5.25" slots) and added a custom-made bracket to the front, so I could install 3x 120mm fans (late 00's case, so many of the common "modern" features weren't there in that specific case.

For the price range; obtaining the better quality case fans is a great value.
I ordered the white 800 fx...I can't wait dor Friday when it will be delivered🎉
I have the white dx one right next to me. I love it. lets see what greg says about it...
Interesting design for the AIO
I like the case design, I am one to not lean into RGB I prefer the solid blacks and silvers in a build. That being said the case is a bit pricy, it would have been nice to include the acoustics of it running at full load. Otherwise good video as always.
Very clean build, if the price does drop I might have to nab a case for myself.
Great case!
A little Old But Love To See Those components together Love your contant ❤❤
