    noise is usually always down to what components and fans you use, as long as there is no extraneous case noise like vibrations and resonance, the case can only do so much against noisy fans on CPU coolers, GFX cards and noisy HDDs.

    Here's hoping the next case will be called "Shut It"
    could be sold as a bundle with a "be quiet!" psu then?

    Quite like the look of this one. I'm a fan of the "looming monolithic slab" school of PC case design, and this one seems to have a decent wodge of loom with a tasty side of monolith. I'd have to call myself reasonably interested in using this for my next box (roll on January and Nehalem!).

    Ew it has 2 80mm fans for exhaust, hardly ideal for silence is it?

    Re: News - NZXT launches Whisper, a silent chassis for the enthusiast

    i am curious about the balance between the total input volume as compared to the total output, that is ought input equal output in terms of volume displaced? Not that i expect that the case will inflate if input is two x 80mm and one 120mm fan and output is by one 120mm fan.
    And then there are considerations as to air filtering.

    Re: News - NZXT launches Whisper, a silent chassis for the enthusiast

    I like the look of the case but it's not really something I'd have myself. It looks like its trying to hard to be minimal yet exotic. I really have my heart set on the new Lian-Li Tyr PC-X2000, just waiting for it to become more available in the UK as I've so far only been able to find one e-tailer that has it and I don't really like them. I hope Scan gets it soon.
