The editors didn't like
Slightly Expensive
Airflow may be affected by the design in high end builds
No window
Door hinges look fragile
Larger overall size
Price (For Some)
Overall Interior Space
Need more tie down locations behind MB tray
Plastic hinges for door
Side fan may hit large CPU coolers
Relatively high price
Internal ATX mid-tower frame
May need to use a Y-connector for fan connection to motherboard
Front skeleton obstructs the front 140 fans and could be a source of wind noise
Fingerprints easy
Not silent
But quiet
Thanks for reading
Somewhat bulky
Door hinges made of plastic
Feet need to be assembled
More hooks on the motherboard tray to route cables would have been nice
Quite tall for an ATX chassis
We wouldn't complain if the price came down $20 or so to put it in line with the competing CM Silencio 652S and Fractal Design R4.

The be quiet! Silent Base 800 is a quiet case with excellent fans and clean lines. At first glance, it's reminiscent of a fine German automobile. Given its $150 price tag, it's priced like a German luxury car, too. Get inside and start the engine, and th...

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...
