Hello. Could you please elaborate why moving the top fan to the front (so there are 2x in the front and none on the top) is better? Why would Be Quiet ship their product with worse configuration of ventilators than it can be? Thanks for explaining.
Wish be quiet makes case that fits micro-ATX motherboard, by combining ideas, and small form factor of Qube 500, and Lian Li O11 air mini. Sadly there isn't any of that version case out there, so I'm forced building my own case. I did bought used Lian Li O11 air mini without fans for 40€ as temporary solution. Would definitely prefer high end 140mm fans in there too.
Been searching a all over the Internet and it seems no one has even tried it. It's the only way I'll pull the trigger for it and I'd never compromise for front mount
i didnt manage to rout MBO power supply cables to be quiet PSU like in your case, cable is to short so I route it in front and it looks horrible. Funny that company didnt even test it on their shit
cant really decide to buy this or lancool iii. the lancool is way more extra in terms of design but this case is just big and easy without hassle. u can just shove everything in and not care about cables it will close regardless
I've been struggling to decide on either case for weeks, my absolute need is the installation of Arctic 420 AIO up top. Be Quiet is slightly wider and the Lancool slightly taller, it's been done on the Lancool by DIY struggle but I haven't found anywhere on the Internet of it attempted on the BE Quiet when it should be slightly easier because it's bigger overall
I have lancool 3 now. Its only higher cus feet are higher. The radiator in the shadowbase sits higher above the mobo. I dont have 420 but i think SB800 will be better for it.@@DavidRegaL-lw5xz
Same case, different fan setups fx comes with 4 140mm light wings dx comes with 3 140mm pure wings if you want rgb go fx otherwise dx and buy an Arctic p14 for 10€ as exhaust.
It is not a bad case, I ordered the fx version because I didn't want the black contrast pf the DX. It was a pain to install a 420mm aio on the front with a push pull configuration. Half of the stand off for the motherboard didn't work. Bequiet customer service sent me a set the next day I reached them by email. Anyway, I loved the included 10 fan/rgb hub and the case quality in general. But there is some much space wasted next to the motherboard. You can't remove any bracket for fan installation. My GPU missed the 3 intake fans I had on my lian li o11 xl. Be quiet included a vertical bracket to mount your GPu, if you used you will have to remove the fan on the back every time you want to screw your GPU. I decided to move to the Deepcool Morpheus...
White? It black and white. Space? You mean it’s empty. Lacks innovation stands in the shadow of the 802 with its button release side panels and looks like an over priced.
Absolutely love this case. Great thermals and doesn't make a sound running 7950x3d with 7900xtx
$127 tax included @ Newegg at the end of December 2024. Bought for my new build.

I keep telling you to try thermalright's ps120, it will surprise you even compared to the new bq elite
I wish you included thermal tests :(
Yeah i agree, case thermals testing important. A few thermocouples and a reader would cost like 30 bucks
I’m late to the party, but have you tried an Arctic 420mm in the roof? Wondering if it’s too thick.
