Hey everyone! I've been planning this gaming-focused setup that emphasizes silence and longevity. I'm using a be quiet! Silent Base 801 case from 2020, equipped with stock Pure Wings 2 fans, and I'm reusing some SSDs from my last build. I'd love your thoughts on the components I've selected!
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 9600X
- CPU Cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 5
- Motherboard: MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI (AM5, DDR5)
- RAM: G.Skill Flare X5 32 GB (2x16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL36
- GPU: Gigabyte RTX 5070 WINDFORCE OC SFF 12 GB
- PSU: be quiet! Pure Power 12 M 750W (80+ Gold, ATX 3.0, modular)
- Case: be quiet! Silent Base 801 (with 3x 140mm Pure Wings 2 fans pre-installed)
- Storage: I already have a Crucial MX500 and a Samsung 860 EVO.
The total cost is around 1200€ (in Germany, including shipping and tax). My main focus is on 1440p gaming with titles like Battlefield 6, Hunt Showdown, and CS.
Thanks so much for your feedback!

be quiet! products are solid. I depend on their components in all my builds; they really deliver on noise reduction.
What about their cases? Are they as good?
