I'm currently running an NZXT H440 and don't find it to be the quietest case in the world, especially under load.

In it, I have:

i5 4670K cooled by H80i (older style).
Asus Strix GTX 970
1 hard drive

Even when idle it's just not as quiet as my mates' Bitfenix prodigy is quieter with a stock intel cooler and 760 Direct CUII.

I've tried to have a look around but nothing seems quiet enough, or looks good enough.

I really like the look of the ibuypower revolt 2 and the antec cube (designed by razer). I like how it shows off the GPU and how compact they are.

Aesthetics are as important. This move is purely because I'm fed up of moving my H440 around - it's a heavy lump and I move a lot (at university).

The NCase is very appealing but lack of availability in the UK is a killer.

What are your thoughts?
 
Fractal Design Define Mini Micro-ATX Case - Black :)

The sleek black interior is matched with pre-fitted, dense noise absorbing material on the side panels, efficiently absorbing noise and vibrations.
You can fit an astonishing total of six hard drives into this case, using the user friendly HDD-trays. All painted in a nice white color and using black silicone mounts.
PSU is mounted in the bottom of the case, with a convenient pull-out filter beneath it.

i Would consider this case also , as no window ,maybe you can get a model with window or buy one on it own for the case.
