At $125, can consider fractal design arc midi r2. If u wan silent case, go get low rpm fans.

There is no noisy case. How can a case generate noise? It is due to your fans. Get better fans would be a better choice, and maybe use rubber screws instead of metal screws. What is your current case?

It is decent. Check linustechtips review on it in youtube. Will give you a better feel.

I'm currently using those cheapo vios case as well. It used to be very noisy because i was using some MIC cheapo psu. After i swap it out with a FSP Platinum psu, my com is running pretty silent.

Usually, stock case fans are optimised for silence and has a rating of usually 30+ cfm. Casings with built in soundproofing like the Aerocool DS do not come cheap.

If u wan noise dampering case, can get fractal design define r4 @$159, NZXT H230 @$109. I think H230 is your best bet. U wan sound dampering, u need to pay for it.

Currently I am using Aerocool psu it is quiet actually but my case fan is no brand noisy 3pin.
Will consider between getting new fan or new case. Thanks.

Aerocool ds cube 109 at bizgram. I bought one last month.
But take note the 200mm front intake fan is a low noise, low rpm fan, I changed mine to bitfenix spectre pro.

End up I bought CM 361 for $50
Reason: The smallest casing that can support full ATX board with USB 3 to boot.
It is cheap and cooling is good.
A bit quieter.
