Evening, I'm looking for the quietest case I can reasonably get without affecting cooling too much. Here's a poor quality pic of what I have at the moment.
It's an icute case and I bought it for about £20 years ago when I was on a very tight budget for my first PC build. It's been fine but I'm starting to get bored of the lack of noise insulation - I want to work on my computer in peace
. I upgraded all the chassis fans and changed the fan on the GPU which helped, but it's still noisy.
Specs are:
I don't want to spend any more than £100. I've been looking at Fractal Design Define R3 but annoyingly the door opens the wrong way.
Could somebody recommend me a case?
