The Pure Base 600 is a solid chassis in most regards. It hasn't blown us away, but equally there aren't many places where we can truly fault it, and we can definitely see it appealing to those for whom low noise is a priority.The design of that central ro...

What case is best for you depends on the purpose you have for it. If you want a silent case, you might be willing to sacrifice some of the cooling performance. On the other hand you might tolerate a bit more noise when you are building a heavy system th...

The be quiet! Silent Base 600 is a case that combines good looks, quiet operation and strong cooling performance. It's definitely worth a look at for your next case purchase.Limited water cooling options may cause some people to look elsewhere when choosi...
the build quality is on a very good level be quiet! didn't make the mistake to go for thin side panels in order to save weight and production cost They used solid sheet metal which has been paired with rather thick noise insulation material This combina...

There's no doubt that the be quiet! Silent Base 600 is a good case, it's good looking, well made and does a good job of keeping your components cool. But with only one intake fan (come on be quiet!, that's a bit stingy!) and a price of approximately £90...

As is so often the case, the first launch turned out to be easy and it's the follow-up that's proving to be a challenge. be quiet!'s second PC enclosure, the Silent Base 600, attempts to deliver the best bits of the original Silent Base 800 in a smaller p...

Tight for space in the roof of the case above the motherboard, Lack of cable tie down points, More cable management holes please, Unclipping the front and top panels is fiddly, The user guide isn't especially clear.
be quiet! began its foray into the case market with the high end Silent Base 800 and now it is tackling the mid-range with the Silent Base 600. The 600 uses an ATX form factor, just like the 800, and launches in two versions. There is a regular model with...

The Silent Base 600 Window takes the key elements of its larger brother the Silent Base 800 and squeezes them into a smaller chassis. So low-noise is the order of the day, with thick panels, noise reduction material and on our windowed edition; double gla...

PricingThere are two models of the Silent Base 600 available, one with a window and one without. I'll be honest, they're not going to come cheap, but since it's just launched, we'll update with retailer stock prices as soon as possible. The MSRP isn't too...
