Does your PC
sounds like a Boeing Jet? Then today’s review item should
definitely pique your interest. NZXT, one of the best PC case
designers around were kind enough to provide Dragonsteelmods with
three of their premier PC cases. Previously I reviewed the Zero 2,
today I will be looking at case number two – the NZXT Whisper.
This full tower steel case is designed with silence in mind. It
features 10mm noise dampening foam pads, rubber grommets for the hard
drives and a padded PSU holder. Obviously, all this is done with
silence in mind.
Besides being
very quiet, the Whisper case also provides maximum room for
expansion. In addition it has room for nine hard drives and six
5.25” bays. Silent operation and roominess are not the only
features of the Whisper; NZXT also threw in plenty of cooling with
four fans. Two 120 mm and two 80 mm fans will help keep the system
running cool and quiet.
So lets listen
and see if the NZXT Whisper lives up to its name.

the standard of silent computing. Finally, a chassis that is
designed for the enthusiast that combines noise dampening features
with expandability and storage. Introducing the Whisper silent full
tower chassis from NZXT, improving upon the successful of the NZXT
HU-001 chassis, the Whisper is another step up from the Hush.
Featured in a large size E-ATX Full Tower, the Whisper can support up
to NINE hard drives and a total of SIX 5.25"; bays with ample
space for large expansion cards. 10mm dampening foams, rubber
grommets, and padded PSU holder are some of the major features in
silence. The NZXT Whisper is the complete solution for the enthusiast
who is not willing to sacrifice silence for performance. The Whisper
also provides mounts for the new smaller 3.5" SSD drives
