Recommend a computer case

Task: the most quiet case (lack of vibration of the case, all sorts of silicone gaskets for HDD, etc.) with normal cooling, preferably with thick walls (around 1mm). It is also very desirable that all connectors go to the top of the case, because. he will stand at his feet. In addition, it is important that a 2.5 '' SSD is mounted there without any problems. And it would be ideal if there were USB 3.0 connectors.

What will be inside the case:

  • Intel® Core™ i7-2600K Market
  • Fan for the processor with a margin: MUX-120 market
  • Asus P8Z68-V PRO market
  • 2 dies of 4GB Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 market
  • SSD: Crucial CT128M4SSD2CCA market
  • Hard drive Western Digital WD20EARX market
  • Power supply Corsair CMPSU-750AX 750W market


Of the quiet ones, Antec p183 was advised , but I don’t like it for the following reasons: the connectors for are located at the bottom, the thickness of the steel is only 0.8mm (it seems to me that it’s not enough), and it seems that the dimensions of the case (20.5 cm wide) are on the verge of becoming my fan got in there (from the board to the highest point - 17-18 cm), I'm afraid that the lid will not close, besides, everyone writes that case fans are noisy sucks, they will have to be changed.

I've already messed around with the choice of the case - the head no longer cooks :(

Thickness is sufficient. Case valves are noisy, but what prevents them from being changed? I now have only 1 for blowing turned on, very quiet.
As for the cooler of the processor xs, my mugen 3 breaks
In general, I don’t know a case quieter than the 183rd at a price of up to 10000r
From the text it’s not clear what the plugs are for. in the lower part? PSU only

And for example, I went the other way.
I took this case (it has speed control for all fans on the top panel with memory). Each HDD is installed in a thick aluminum container for heat dissipation and sound insulation. Stuffed with not the cheapest fans (600 rubles or more) and lowered their rotation speed to a minimum (50% power). I put a large passive heatsink on the processor. On the video card, I also bought passive radiators, instead of a native fan.
In total, the case and the entire cooling system cost about 8,000 rubles. When you have to work at night, the loudest is the knock on the keys.
Fans are not audible already at a distance of 1 meter.
Before that, I solved the problem of noise isolation by taking the computer into the pantry and forwarding ten-meter KVM and USB wires at the baseboard.

@Akson87

Why do you need such a PSU without a video card?
I do not advise taking CoolerMaster HAX or something like that. Expensive, but not that high quality.
Information for reflection: Take something with a fanless PSU and a large cooler (20 + cm) on the wall of the case, put a large large radiator on the percentage, you can even without a fan (if a large one blows directly on it), total 1 large fan in the system and there will be happiness :), even a very cool case with thick walls is not required. But this is for reflection, you need to think about how such a thing will work.

But I still dare to recommend the Cooler Master Cosmos 1000. I think it fits your requirements. It has connectors on the top. Heavy truth very much, an infection.

Zalman Z9 Plus.
Just replace the processor cooling with Corsair Hydro - it will be aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa lot quieter.

I advise - Cooler Master Silencio 550, no complaints, except that the usb3 wire was passed through one of the holes for water cooling, but this is most likely a jamb of assemblers.
