I am looking to get a new case to replace an old MESH midi-tower that I have been using since I rebuilt my system last summer. I have gone to some effort to make the system quiet replacing all the fans and CPU heatsink and am pretty pleased with the result, however, I figure that I could reduce the noise further by replacing the case.
Whilst I was initially drawn to the Antec P182, I have been put off by build quality concerns and some other niggles (no motherboard connectors for the case fans etc). It was then that I saw very positive reviews for the Osiris case by Hiper. My only concern is that of noise - one review described it as a wind tunnel if I remember correctly!
Can anyone tell me if this is just because of the way the fans were operated by the reviewer (i.e. on 100%) or whether the case itself does not provide much noise damping? Thanks!
(one other thing re the Osiris - why provide unnecessary extras such as a 'unique' keyring? Surely something like a dust filter on the front intake fan would be more usefull...)
