be quiet! Silent Base 800

The Silent Base 800 utilizes custom, high-density sound-dampening mats strategically placed on the top, front, and both side panels. It also features a closed front door design with an additional acoustic layer to block high-frequency coil whine and fan noise. Combined with ultra-quiet SilentWings 3 fans, the case is engineered specifically to deliver an virtually inaudible computing experience.

Yes, the case comes pre-installed with two 140mm be quiet! SilentWings 3 fans at the front and one 140mm fan at the rear, all featuring 4-pin PWM connectors. This allows your motherboard to precisely adjust their rotational speed based on CPU temperature. These fans are renowned for their exceptionally smooth operation, utilizing fluid-dynamic bearings to minimize motor noise.

Yes, be quiet! offers the Silent Base 800 in both a windowed version and an entirely solid, windowless version. The solid, windowless variant replaces the glass with a thick, sound-dampened steel panel for maximum acoustic isolation. This is generally the preferred choice for audio professionals or users building recording rigs where absolute silence is paramount.

The Silent Base 800 offers generous clearance for large air coolers, supporting CPU heatsinks up to 170mm in height. This means flagship tower coolers like the Noctua NH-D15 or the Dark Rock Pro 4 will fit comfortably inside. Builders do not have to sacrifice massive air cooling performance to achieve the case's silent acoustic properties.
