My favorite part of the case reviews is when Jay gets shocked during the unboxing

[Preske]

Phil, buddy. We need a supercut of everytime Jay gets zapped!

I just built my first computer last week in this case! It was amazingly beginner friendly. I bought 4 extra fans for better airflow to help the beefy Dark Rock Elite cooling my 7800x3D. 3 in the front, one in the front bottom, two in the back top and the exhaust of course. it has great positive pressure..my 7900GRE does fine in it as well with the extra airflow directed at the bottom. I love so much!

Case videos are underrated! Defiantly want to see micro and mini ITX cases too!

[SilverDragn]

I want to watch Jay build an inverted PC now.

I really appreciate how tall those feet are, it raises the case up from the floor to improve airflow so much, I wish all cases came with tall feet like that!

[happalula]

bequiet has really grown on me - great fans, good ideas and high quality (from my experience)

[ramiking]

Ever since I've built my own PC, I've become a fan of be quiet products. I'm definitely getting one of their cases when I decide to swap out my current one in the future.

[DanDoesChat]

They sent me this case a few weeks ago & I absolutely agree that its an amazing case.... HOWEVER it is massive & definitely aimed at people looking to do custom loops with water/liquid cooling.
The sounds proofing is really neat, I thought they were thermal pads at first when I unboxed it, then I remembered its "BeQuiet" lol

[Achrstl]

Jay its nice to see you back to your old self! Hope you continue to feel better!

[chadlachlanross]

I will sit through that World of Warships ad. Every. Single. Time. Yah!!!

[reidsampey]

Jay will blow through a mesh screen every time to check airflow and talk about "porosity" LOL. Don't ever change Jay! We love you!

Jay - "BIGGEST CARDS WILL FIT NO PROBLEM"
5090 - "hold my power cable"

With the 3 fans the price ain't so bad. Thanks Jay and Friends.

Have always had a good experience with Bequiet stuff.... have turned into one of my go to brands for alot of things over the originally started with their silent base 801 and still use it as a server case now after updating to the dark base pro their aftersales support was good when they updated the silent base 801 to the 802... the new 802 came with an optional mesh front was able to buy one directly from them to give my old 801 some better air flow

Funny Jay mentioned about a solid side panel. I am one of those who don't like the glass side panels at all. I got a Fractal Torrent because they offered a two side solid panel.

The inverted looks awesome though, I use one of my old G5 cases as a PC case so i was use to seeing it the other way around, haha.

I very much appreciate the continued support for 3.5" drives. I use two in my rig as archives that i still want access to in my system

[ReyGotSumCents]

it's very nice to have an option for 2.5 and 3.5 inch drives. i still have one of each and it's like, if you have it you may as well use it, because no one buys used storage and also you can store movies, photos and videos, which is exactly what i use it for and the 2.5 inch is for linux.

[cbomb]

I have this case for my new system. I love it. I have a 360 aio up top cooling a 7700xt with a 7900xtx. Tons of room to spare, neither has gone much over 60c.

I use 2 12gb 3 1/2in drives. One is mass storage for all my raw footage. The other is a backup copy of said data. Then I have another 12gb USB connected 3 1/2in external drive as a backup of my backup. I then unplug it when I backup all my new footage from when I take my filming trips and then keep it at a friends house just in case of something happening to the PC. 3 1/2in drives are WAAYY cheaper than any SSD or NVME when you get into that big of storage drive.
