Mini ITX silent build - Mrlarue77 - 2013-10-03
I have been reading your site for ~ a month now and would like your advice before i purchase this build to make sure i have enough power, room and so on.
I will be running Windows 8 Pro, heavy skin, need 3d, 24p bitstreaming and all the whistles, and i am looking for the quietest fan for case and CPU.
Parts
SSD: (cheap and at random) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A35X6GM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
Ram: (again cheap and random) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0057Q4AGW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
CPU: http://www.amazon.com/Intel-i3-3225-Dual-Core-Processor-Cache/dp/B0093H8H8I/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1380811395&sr=8-2&keywords=i3-3245
MB: http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-1155-Intel-Motherboard-GA-H77N-WIFI/dp/B009JDTWVC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1380811492&sr=8-1&keywords=ga-h77n
CPU Cooler: (Was recommended to someone on these forums) http://www.amazon.com/Dynatron-T459-Profile-Active-LGA1156/dp/B006V5SZMI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1380811725&sr=8-1&keywords=Dynatron+T459
and now the case. I want it small and quality and have searched hard for one that is not going to break the bank and is sold in the USA.
1. http://www.amazon.com/Lian-Li-PC-Q12B-Aluminum-Center/dp/B009FI371C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1380811806&sr=8-1&keywords=Lian+Li+PC-Q12B This comes with a PSU, and the PSU has a fan, has anyone seen these, is it very loud?
2.http://www.amazon.com/Wesena-ITX5-B-Black-Aluminum-chassis/dp/B00858ZBCQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1380810360&sr=1-2&keywords=Wesena with this Pico PSU http://www.amazon.com/Mini-Box-picoPSU-160-XT-Power-Mini-ITX-Supply/dp/B005TWE6B8/ref=pd_cp_pc_2 and CORD
any help would be appreciated, would really like to use one of those 2 cases though.

Since budget isn´t a concern, go for Haswell (s1150)

budget is a concern, i just also like to get quality when i spend. following other post on this forum those parts will accomplish what i want. i mainly just want to know if either of those 2 cases will work and how loud the Lian li one is.
