Spotted the silver version of these cases for a discount on PC Case Gear. Normally they're $249 (no window) and $269 (windowed) respectively.
Doesn't include shipping costs but you'd still end up saving a fair bit considering their prices are now closely matched to their predecessors (the Silent Base 601 series).
Just to compare:
- The 801 series comes with 3 pre-installed Pure Wings 2 140mm fans, whereas the 601 series comes with 2 pre-installed Pure Wings 2 140mm fans.
- The 801 series includes a fan controller for up to six fans with PWM hub option, whereas the 601 series includes a fan controller for up to three fans.
- The 801 series includes support of water cooling radiators up to 420mm length, whereas the 601 series includes Support of water cooling radiators up to 360mm length.
- The 801 series offers space for eleven SSDs or five HDDs out of the box, whereas the 601 series offers space for six SSDs or three HDDs out of the box.
- The 801 series provides the ability to "invert the motherboard layout", whereas the 601 does not.
- The 801 series has dimensions of (WxHxD in mm) 281 x 553 x 539, whereas the 601 series has dimensions of (WxHxD in mm) 240 x 514 x 532
Have this one. Amazing is all I can say about it.
