Verdict
be quiet! Shadow Base 800
8.5 / 10 Expert Rating
The best quiet-focused case in be quiet!'s lineup for anyone who also wants serious radiator support, without paying flagship Dark Base Pro pricing.
Montech King 95
7.5 / 10 Expert Rating
Most of the King 95 Pro's dual-chamber appeal for less, if you don't need curved glass or the extra two fans.
