One thing here is for sure. NZXT did appropriately name this new case and its features and high attention to detail regarding the elimination of all unwanted noise step beyond most. Whisper Quiet Hence its name, this case does indeed take e...
Quiet (noise dampening material), Full Tower (Large), Dual Chamber Internal Chassis, Bottom Mounted PSU, 7 x 5.25" bays, 5.25" 3.5" adapter, Well Constructed, Cable Management
Air Flow Somewhat Restricted, Internal Chassis Finish Seemed Too Thin, Lack of PSU Extensions For Cables
Overall I was very pleased with how well the NZXT Whisper stacked up against other cases I have had the experience with. It had a nice clean look to it on the outside and was indeed extremely well built. It was to me very quiet and true to its name. T...
Included fans very noisy, Power supply far too low, Could use more ventilation in the motherboard area, Front I/O panel flimsy, December 9, 2009 Addendum: NZXT contacted us to let us know that theyve recognized that with high-end components, temperatures...
To help give the Whisper a good test, Ive installed the following hardware: Processor: Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 @ 3.0GHz Motherboard: ASUS P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP Memory: OCZ Platinum 2x1GB DDR3-1333 Graphics: PowerColor HD 3450 256 MB PSU: Enermax Li...
Abstract: One of my favorite areas of computing is the case. While this doesn't do really anything by itself, it's pretty interesting to see how far these have come from the plain beige cases that just used to simply hold the components of your computer. Today ...
Abstract: Making a case that is quiet is no small task to begin with; it usually involves a great deal of planning and even engineering to strike an equitable balance between reasonable temperatures and lower noise levels. Usually these two things are inversely ...
Sturdy design, Sound dampening material through out the interior of case, Cable management was made easy even when using a PSU with extra long wires, Having a separated upper motherboard area and the lower PSU area.
Not enough room near the upper area of the case, Not having enough fans on the motherboard area (intake) will make controlling temperatures difficult, Sound dampening material can and will act like an insulator during times of high ambient temperatures...
S There are things I feel NZXT could have done a little better on this chassis design. They could allow more room in the upper motherboard area by adding one or two of inches of height. This would make installing and removing the motherboard with large...
Abstract: My initial reaction upon receiving the NZXT Whisper Case box was that there is no way in hell that thing is all case, because of how huge it was. Well, it was all case. Upon opening the box my only reaction was “Crap, this thing is HUGE!”. Ama...
Our main concern about the internal layout of the case remains, and the lack of airflow through the chassis is certainly something we’d worry about in the long run. We’ve run a few thermal tests on modern graphics cards recently and the curren...
It was interesting to see how the NZXT Whisper worked with a noisy heat gun. Earlier in the week, the gun was placed inside an older Chenming case still in use. It only has 2 front and 2 rear 80mm fans as well as a side fan. It was unable to keep up w...
Like the NZXT Hush did for mid-tower owners, the Whisper looks to do for those who want a bit more room in their case. With seven external 5¼" bays available and a whopping nine internal 3½" drive trays, the Whisper would make for an excellent server...
