It's that time of the year again! Ok.. It could happen anytime after a product launch of ours :p

Ghost will be hitting shelves around the 2nd week of October so it's just perfect timing for me to give you guys an opportunity to win one and review one as soon as they arrive in our warehouse!

So, question for you: Why would you want to be given the chance to interview a Ghost? Your case too noisy?

Post until October 3rd, and I'll give out 2 to haunt!

A couple of videos that Ghost has taken it's toll already:

Features:

LED mounts on the bottom
Serenitek™ Silencing material
radiator support
dual hinged door
rubber grommets
Spectre fans instead of oem fans.
 
Why would you want to be given the chance to interview a Ghost? Your case too noisy?

I want to get onto the reviewing scene and the Bitfenix giveaways would be the best way to test my stuff.
Plus I want to make a computer for my daughter and this would be the perfect thing to test if she can sleep with the computer on.
 
Love the look of the Ghost, as I'm currently using one of your cases and would like to see your interpretation of a silenced case. Also means I can give my old one to a friend for a build :p
 
Most disappointed that the case won't be around until after my birthday now - the silenced case was what I was after, coupled with BitFenix's reputation for build quality and the taller roof specifically for a dual rad to make my return to watercooling easier, this case meets my needs entirely. Due to my changing needs, the hotswap facility in the roof of the case is one of the design points which made this case the choice over competing models, as it makes moving files that much easier from one HDD to another.

Hope that gives you an idea of what I'm after and how a prospective review would evolve.

Edit:

Birthday is now here - and I have a new camera to take stunning shots of the case with! Also, to coincide with the release of the case, it seems I have 2 weeks leave booked - handy eh?

Thanks for another great give-away :)



Interview a Ghost.........eh? :p

I would love to review this case. This is the case that I am most excited about! Personally, when it comes to getting a new case, the most important factor is noise as my PC case sits right next to me on my desk, so it has to be silent. I currently have the Bitfenix Raider and am already very impressed with the noise levels, especially given its open nature design. Therefore, surely this case, which has been designed for purely quietness in mind with the Serenitek™ Silencing material, I am expecting this to be even quieter than the Raider, if not silent?!?! :eek: Also, I would like to see how well it dampens out the noise of my four mechanical hard drives as well as the 4850 GPU fan when at load levels as this is when the case is much louder and is the downside of having an open design. It will be interesting to see how the cooling performance has been impacted as well.

Regarding how I would review the case, you can see my Bitfenix Raider review in my sig below, I would take the same approach for the Ghost review, however, improving upon it even more i.e. this time I will create bar charts for the temps/noise comparisons to make it even easier to follow and more presentable to the readers amongst other improvements to the review. I also have a much better camera now so photos will look awesome and most importantly you can be sure that I will get the review done within a timely manner ;)
 
Me and my wife are into the paranormal,she takes the pics while i ask all the questions with the EVP recorder.

So many questions left unanswered regarding the Bitfenix GHOST which needs a thorough investigation.
 
I would love to review this case since my case the famous Antec 300 is a bit too noisy, by that I mean there are 2 fans, they break my ear drums, and there is a noisy GPU. TOO much dust builds up on the terribly organised cables :( It would only take me about 15-16 days to completely switch, my new (kinda) rig needs some upgrades, starting with the case, then the CPU. The heat sink I am using right now (stock Intel 1155) is too loud compared to the rest and my HDD make loud noises too :(

The Spectre fans will make the case significantly quieter than it would be. I can do some comparisons with the loadness from both cases fans, eg, spectre in antec and regular in antec, then spectre in ghost and spectre in ghost :)

The case look's interesting to me, I like how they are focusing on some improved airflow designs but also trying to keep the visual and audible noise down. I want to see first hand how it compares to Fractal's case offerings, because the price is very competitive.

I want to review it because it would give me an excuse to use my D5100. Also I need a new case for my brothers new rig using my old motherboard/cpu.

It will also give me an excuse to take my 200mm Bitfenix pro out of my current case.

I have had a quiet case before, but the cooling was terrible. Would kit it out with some more Bitfenix bling if I was to review it.

I want to review it because I am trying to find the midi case that has it all:
Good looks
Is quiet
Cools well...
...spooky.

• I would like to see how it compares to the ShinobiXL, plus I think you know I would do a nice job on it.

I built a computer for my parents. The case was £19.99 (with a 500w PSU) - so you can imagine the quality of it :o

I'd like a Bitfenix Ghost case so that when their hard drive spins up it doesnt sound like a train going through the house :p

I would love the opportunity to review the Ghost case, I am getting fed up of the industrial looks of my Coolermaster Haf-x and would prefer something a bit more sleeker looking, the Haf has some excellent qualities such as cable management and cooling so would be a divine opportunity to see how Bit fenix compares in all these aspects and more.

The ghost case looks awesome and would look just right by my desk.

Thank you if you choose me I would be so greatful.

I would like to be given the chance to interview a ghost for a few reasons.

I would like a sleek and grown up looking case, and I would also like a case that is quiet.

My competitor case looks silly and leaks sound like nobody's business, I have outgrown it. It also has shoddy build quality! I can hear every component inside whirring noisily which is very difficult to tune out of, I think a case such as one made by Bitfenix would be a massive improvement.

I love the styling of bitfenix cases, the understated and sleek look I adore. I have also heard they're some of the best cases around for as good as silent noise, so I would love to audition a bitfenix cases for those reasons.

I am a power pc user and would like to reduce ambient noise levels as much as possible so I may use my pc in comfort on a daily basis. I would also like a case to be proud of with high end aesthetics. The bitfenix ghost would be a ideal accompaniment to my pc gaming hobby and I would be certain to post a review of the case.

Thank you.
 
My case is incredibly takky. A dodgy front hidge mouted cover, that i have to leave open or else it will fall appart. I'd like a case that can house my parts, but do it well.

But as for the ghost, is it in the tower in lavander town? You may have to use your silph scope on it to identify it as a marowak, cubone's mother. Then just defeat the team rocket at the top of the tower, talk to mr. fuji, meet him at his house and he'll give you a pokéflute.

Thats how you'll get past the snorlaxes blocking the roads.

1) I will review the pants off the case.
2) It won't take weeks to get the review from me.
3) I will compare with an already quiet Antec P183.
4) I need something ghostly in my living room.
5) I will give a totally unbiased review.
6) I will take lots of pictures that will help promote the case to others.
7) I will make good use of the LED mounts and illuminate the Ghost with bright Orange LEDs.
8) It'll go nicely with my Bitfenix Recon and Bitfenix Spectre and Bitfenix Spectre Pro fans.
9) I could really go for a new case and I like the Bitfenix logo.
10) I think the dual hinged door is a great option as I'm not sure which side of my desk I will be having my case when I move house.
11) It's always good to know that your case supports radiators if you ever feel like going to water cooling.
12) Running backups will be so much easier with the hotswap bay at the top.
 
I would love to compare it to the define r3 I am currently using for my home server and colossus of my main system as I have always enjoyed silent systems.

:confused:

All of their cases have a fan at the front, some even have more than 1 fan included and have multiple mounting options for various sizes.
