be quiet! Silent Base 601 review 4

Posted by: Krzysztof Hukalowicz on: 09/04/2018 01:00 PM [ 6 comment(s) ]

We’re checking out the new be quiet! Silent Base 601, a mid-tower PC chassis and the successor to the Silent Base 600. Based on a metal chassis, the new Silent Base 601 has high-grade dampening materials on the panels (up to 10 millimeters thick), angled intake air vents on the front support Silent Base’s near-quiet operation.

Looks very good. I am missing back fan vertical holes which allow precise installation for 12cm radiator as that may be important if one uses top mounted radiator at same time.
And I did not find photo showing top cover removed as there would be seen mounting for 24/28cm radiator.

very nice review Krzysztof.

Be Quiet is an excellent manufacturer, i just wish they'd make a really nice itx case. my new workstation build is on a m-atx (corsair crystal 280x) because Asrock has a Taichi matx x399. i'm getting rid of all hdd's for my 1st 100% nvme/ssd system with mass storage. with the airflow needs of such a build Be Quiet would be on my list...except for all of the jumbo cases

Hey Guys.

Thanks for the input. It's my second chassis review@guru3d.com, I'll try to improve next time.
@Fox2232 - yes, that's something useful (as I have it in my private H700i), but for the purpose of the review these "static" ones were enough for AIO of GPU. Yep, there is no photo like that, but at the end of 8th page you can see the bracket from the bottom.

@tunejunky - yep, in fact it would be good if they would release some mATX chassis, not really miniITX. Maybe in the future they'll manage to introduce sth to the market.

I like how it looks from a builder perspective, I also like the outside look of it (although that's highly subjective ofc). Great review.

In the flood of windowed chassis that was a pleasant experience :). Thanks for the opinion @fantaskarsef !

EDIT -> BTW - you can call me Chris, if you prefer ;)
