Silet Base 800 is be quiet!'s first case, and while the Windowed version offers a nice view inside, there aren't any other differences between it and the original design launched back in 2014.Still, the German manufacturer has gone all in with the enclosu...

The be quiet! Silent Base 800 is a very stylish, refined chassis with clean looks and it really does operate silently, as advertised. The build quality of the chassis is excellent, with well-fitted side panels that are solidly constructed and quality com...
The SilentBase 800 was the first ever chassis Be Quiet made, now updated with a side window (which you can optionally purchase as well). I'll keep saying it, I think that Be Quiet! has done a very nice job with the Silent Base 800 overall. It's a well de...

The Silent Base 800 is most likely a "test" product by be quiet! designed to see if they can also succeed in the PC case market as they have in the PSU and CPU cooler ones and as far as we are concerned they seem to be on the right track. We're...

The first thing to mention is that the Silent Base 800 case will pretty much support anything that you might want to put in a system of this size. There is official support for ATX, Micro ATX, and mini-ITX motherboards, however, I was able to put an E-ATX...

The real question with the Silent Base 800 is whether the features that it offers are actually needed. If you're spending more than $100 on a case, chances are slim that the rig is ultra noisy in the first place, a fact amplified by the obsession with lo...
The Be Quiet! Silent Base 800 hits most of check-boxes I look for in a >US$100 case. While not made of the thickest material, they somehow managed to make it feel better built than it is. The side panels are especially worthy of praise, fitting so well I ...
The Silent Base 800 is a stylish and quiet choice for users who want to combine the look and price of a full tower with the component space of a mid-tower. Removable/repositionable drive cages make room for larger motherboards and longer cards but red...
