Features

Award Winning Silent Operation

Well-matched Deep Silence Fans and Fan Controllers

Highly Adaptable & Modular

Minimalistic & Understated Looks

Award Winning Silent Operation

Our special combination of bitumen and foam is extremely efficient at reducing airborne noises from mechanical drives and fan vibrations. Our cases are rated top performers for their excellent, stealthy ventilation and industry leading low noise levels.

Well-matched Deep Silence Fans and Fan Controllers

Many cases often ship with cheaply built fans that produce different levels of noise, which contributes to noise pollution. Our cases doesn't suffer from this problem; all our fans are lab-tuned and well-matched with the case's fan controllers to generate an almost inaudible 12~13 dBA@1m at lowest settings.

Highly Adaptable and Modular

To appease your inner grease monkey, these cases are configuration friendly and give you many options to install and mount additional hardware. Whether you are a digital storage collector who needs large amounts of drives, or a videographer/photographer who needs massive graphics power, our chassis features a variety of modular HDD cages and brackets to maximize internal space for hardware installation.

Minimalistic and Understated Looks

Great-looking cases aren't just fancy and colorful. They're ear-candy adventures in themselves! Up close the Nanoxia cases fascinate in details like swiveling fan brackets and soundproofed drive bay doors that would keep even the most noisy PC system whisper quiet. From afar they inspire with understated looks and minimalistic aesthetics. These are computer cases that promise the ultimate in ventilation and low noise levels.

Customers like the noise level of the computer chassis. They mention that it is quiet, has a filtered air intake, and the door for optical drives reduces noise. The sound proofing material is well placed, but the metal case seems thin.

Customers have mixed opinions about the cable management of the computer case.

Value conscious, not cheap, but certainly not over the top.The build:First, the case chosen was a Nanoxia Deep Silence 4 Mini Tower because it was small, has no windows and most importantly has good noise reduction design. It is reasonably priced as well.Next choice was the i9-7900x CPU and it was a hard one to make. The main contenders were the Ryzen 7, Threadripper and the Intel i9 series. The most impressive for my software development tasks is hands down the threadripper, plus for it has a great power/price ratio. Sadly, it falls way short for games as most games are single threaded. I hope that game engines start getting smarter about using more cores. The Intel I9’s are pretty expensive and have a poor power/price ratio. I waited until all the specs were in before I made a decision. The 7980xe certainly tops the charts with at best a 30% gain (only in massive threading workloads) over the 7900x, at twice the price and double the power usage. It just does not make sense. On top of that, I would have to create another water loop to cool it, which is off the table.Next was the motherboard, for which there is only one option that fits the CPU and the case. The EVGA x299 micro ATX board.Next was the heat sink, the part that could make or break the "small" build. The CPU is going to require a significant cooler, more than 120mm closed loop can do. To my surprise, the Noctua NH-D15 out preforms many 240mm closed loop systems. Sadly, it was about 5mm too large to fit in the case. The good news is the Noctua NH-D15S comes in at exactly 5mm shorter and only loses 20W of thermal capacity in the compromise (~220W). It is also well designed to make room for the RAM. Fits like a glove. Also, Noctua is well known for its quiet fans. Hat tip to Nanoxia (case designers) support for preventing from having to try and fail.Next I chose a 64GB Corsair Dominator kit for the RAM. Mostly because I had lots of trouble between the ASUS motherboard and a G.Skill kit in my previous x99 build.Finally, in a stroke of luck, ordering the GPU last.. EVGA just released, on the same day, a new 1080 ti elite that supposedly can rival its own Kingpin. We shall see.I compared this build with others from the popular online PC builders and I am definitely coming in at very significant savings even when compared against lesser hardware options.The test:It's been a long night! But, as luck would have it the job is done and it meets all the goals I stated for it including being very quiet. In order to hear it at all everything else has to be turned off including the central air. Even under full load it is just a whisper.Here are a couple boring photos. My goal was to have a plain looking system with the LED's off. I even went into the video card setting and turned off the lighting.(see attached photos)I bench-marked for while and it was smoking fast and I have not even overclocked it. I did finally start overclocking and what I found was a pretty unnoticeable change in the single threaded benchmarks as the turbo mode automatically over-clocks two cores on demand. I doubt there will be many cases that overclocking would actually make a difference for normal use and instead just drives up the power and the heat. At least for now, I am not going to over-clock it.It is much lighter than the previous one, guessing 25-30 lbs.It's a nice quiet beast.

Great support and great case!

Goals for new system:

1. Supports my use case of gaming, software development, video capture and editing, blender.
2. Quiet
3. Better video
4. Smaller, the current one takes up too much leg room.
5. No LED’s. I don’t need the light show distraction nor the night light.
6. No water, for space, noise and cost reduction.
7. Some room to grow.
8. Value conscious, not cheap, but certainly not over the top.

C'est un boitier qui ne vaut pas 90€, tout au plus 35-40€ (et encore pas dans les meilleurs boiter de cette gamme de prix) ...
En premier lieu je n'ai pas reçu tout a fait la même version, j'ai 1 seul rack de 5 disques et pas 1 rack de 3 disques et au autre de 2 disques ... Bon cela revient au même mais ca reste étrange.
- Le ports usb en façade sont de travers et dépassent d'un côté et surtout ca bouge (tout comme les ports jacks) ! Je doute de la durée de vie de la connectique de façade (qui contient le bouton pour démarrer ...) (Photo n°1 et vidéo)
- Le connecteur de la platine de connexion des ventilateur est mal soudé et complétement de travers. (Photo n° 2)
- On passera sur la finition avec des points de colle chaude ... (j'avais jamais vu ca dans un boitier ...) (Photo n° 2)
- Le plus gros soucis, le boitier ne peux accueillir 4 disques 3.25" sur les 6 possibles. Les vis pour tenir les guides en plastique pour la stabilité de la baie ressortent et empêche de mettre le dernier disque ... Même chose en bas impossible de faire rentrer un disque... J'ai essayé de tourner les disques dans tous les sens mais rien n'y fait... Les 6 emplacements disques c'est l’intérêt de ce boitier et avec 4 emplacements c'est moins intéressant. Il faut enlever les vis et limer les petits pour que le disque rentre... et avoir 5 emplacements ... Pour le 6 je vois pas comment faire, il faudrait mettre des vis plus courte et forcer pour le faire entrer ... (Photo n°3 et 4)
- Les disques ne sont pas vraiment super stable, ca bouge un peu dans tous les sens.
- C'est dommage le reste du boitier est d'une qualité correcte ... les panneaux sont relativement lourds et épais le métal, la peinture, c'est correct.
Je ne sais pas quoi faire, j'ai 6 disques à mettre dans ce boitier et gros doute sur la durée de vie de la partie électronique...
