If you are considering building a silent PC rig you
may be interested in the new Silent Base 601 Chassis unveiled this week by Be
Quiet. Available with a couple of different options the Silent Base 601 is
available for preorder price at US$ 129 or £ 110 or € 120 with versions offering
orange, black or silver highlights. Be Quiet Has also created a tempered glass
side window chassis version priced at € 130, US$ 139 or £ 123.
Equipped with intelligent airflow design and whisper
quiet operation the chassis provides easy installation and excellent usability
says Be Quiet. “Specially designed air vents dampen noise while providing
excellent air permeability to ensure the best possible cooling performance at
whisper-quiet operation. The new technical design delivers even better results
in noise reduction, which makes these air vents the most advanced in the be
quiet! case product family. The chassis frame is completely made out of metal,
minimizing the transfer of noise-inducing vibrations. Its silent operation is
supported by 10mm thick sound-insulating foam on the panels and topped off with
two decoupled Pure Wings 2 fans, decoupled HDD bays and a three-step fan
controller for 3-pin fans.”
