This is what my case looks like: (warning, its big)
My case has 9 fans, 2 of them from liquid cooling (ICM 505 liquid cooling units), a 10th if you inclue a PCI slot fan, and 12 if you inclue the 2 on my PSU.
With the sides on, I can hear it, but no more so than a room fan set on a LOW setting. Its QUIET compared to most cases w/t this many fans.
I'm more curious to see if the case rattles a lot with the harddrives in it or if you can hear "wind" from air being sucked into the case (through vents) is all I'm concerned about. The rest is my own doing in terms of audible noise.
ALSO: if anyone knows the name of this case, I'd be pleased to know. After I ordered it, i ripped the box up and don't remember the name. :lol:
