be quiet! is a German company dedicated to making desktop products with exceptionally quiet operation. They are mostly known for their ventures into extremely quiet power supplies and CPU coolers from which they have had a lot of success among silent desktop enthusiasts. Last year they announced the Silent Base case line, their first attempt into entering the case market. Today, Benchmark Reviews takes a look at the second case release from be quiet!, the Silent Base 600.
The Silent Base 600 is the smaller brother of the Silent Base 800, the flagship full tower that was released earlier this year and many encountered with positive reviews despite it being be quiet!’s first case. The Silent Base 600 follows many of the principles of it’s predecessor, but it comes with some hefty changes. Most notably, the 600 has a smaller footprint, making it closer in size to a mid tower than to a full tower. The Silent Base 600 still manages to pack a lot with compatibility for up to ATX motherboards, 7 expansion slots, up to 6 hard drives, and the ability to mount a 240 mm AIO water cooler on the top.
