Everything is well designed in this case, easy and logical to assemble it yourself.
Space on all levels, including for cable management.
Several possible options for ventilation (several front panels, several top covers).
Ultra quiet, it's really high quality.

Excellent case
Excellent silent case despite its three included fans.
Note that it comes with two front plates, one improving ventilation as shown in the photo and a second equipped with noise-reducing foam, as with the plate on the left side.

The computer has become an essential accessory for everyday life; to be deprived of it is felt like an amputation; the LDLC team is very reactive and immobilises the computer for a minimum of time; very satisfied with their advice and services.

Fortunately it's a full case with foam for integrated noise reduction, and I've got anti-noise headphones, otherwise it wouldn't be bearable. Be Quiet have surely lost some of their prestige as they've strayed towards RGB, and they're becoming less and less competent, which is a bit disappointing.
Totally overpriced.

Disappointed by fan noise and poor cooling
The case houses a B850 motherboard with a 9800x3D and an RTX 5070Ti card. By paying 180€, I thought I'd be safe in terms of silence and cooling. However, this case suffers from several faults which are due to (1) the problem of being too big (2) the presence of low-end fans.
At 25°C in the room;
- The case's 3 fans are very noisy as soon as you exceed 900 RPM, and for office work I'm bothered by the noise.
- In game (CP 2077), side panel closed (GPU 55° CPU 70°). Side panel open (GPU 50° CPU 65°), so 5°C more.
The case is too bulky, the 2 pure wings fans on the front struggle to blow and the one at the back gives off almost no heat. Opening the top side grille doesn't change anything.
To remedy this, I'm thinking of changing the 3 fans (pure wings 4, which are less noisy and more powerful), and putting the other 3 in top extraction (or putting an AIO on top for the CPU).

Best case ever
This is the 4th or 5th large-tower case I've used, and it's the best I've ever had.
Customisable (panel/glass inversion).
Cable management well thought out, raised.
Ergonomic.
Choice of several panels (sound insulation or large dust filter).
Perfect!

High quality
Very nice, high-quality case, big enough to fit any configuration inside.
The case has a very good airflow, which means that it cools very well while remaining extremely quiet.
The dust filters are easy to access and clean.
The easy opening of the side panels at the touch of a button is also very pleasant.
The only small fault I have is that there's not enough room on the side of the case for the cables, although once everything's in place and attached properly there's no problem (bearing in mind that I have 8 fans with hub icue from Corsair).
Very fast delivery from LDLC as usual.

This case can easily accommodate an RTX 4090 with a 360mm AIO and all with a 1600W power supply.

Spacious and quiet.
Picked up today in the shop after my components had been transferred by the team at Chanteloup en Brie, the tower is huge, the fans are very large, so air flow won't be a problem.
The dust filters are very accessible. You no longer need to unscrew the side panel to open it (a simple button detaches the panel from the tower).
The fans are very quiet for their size. I recommend them for large configurations.

Spacious but with room for improvement
I chose this model for its xl size, the filters, the 3 non-rgb fans installed, and the modularity of certain elements such as the front panel (closed or airflow).
I also like the quick removal of the side panels.
I took the version with the window because there will be a bit of rgb on the watercooling, ram and cg.
My disappointment comes from the price compared to the quality of the plastic top and side power covers. The nipples are made of hard plastic and don't inspire any confidence in me. The bottom side power cover is hard to remove, and I'm always afraid of breaking something.
The covers popped off during transport and several parts were damaged. Ldlc did what was necessary, as always.

To work in peace
This is the first time I've invested in a quality tower, and the silence is really appreciable, given the number of hours I've spent working on it. All you have to do to open the cover is press a simple button. Easy to clean. No more screws, easy, quality, pretty, nothing to say after a year's use, still as quiet as ever. It's good to be able to work in peace.

A solid reference
Boiter bought to replace an NZXT H510 Elite for its cooling capacity after the acquisition of an AMD 7900XTX.
Having owned Be Quiet!'s first case, the Silent Base 800, I can't help but notice the great progress the brand has made in terms of design and construction since 2014.
The Silent Base 802 is a solid, rigid enclosure that offers plenty of workspace and impressive modularity.
The vast majority of operations on this product can be carried out without tools: unlocking panels with a press button, front panel 'clipped' onto rail, top panel fixed by like. The power supply is installed using a plate that enables it to be fitted and removed quickly from outside the enclosure.
The accessories supplied make a major contribution to this modularity: a front panel and a mesh to replace the solid panels on the front and top of the enclosure.
It is also possible to mount the case in reverse ATX (although this is debatable given the mass of graphics cards available today).
The slot for 3 fans on the top of the product is mounted on a rail that can be extracted from the case for easy mounting or maintenance of a radiator and/or fans.
When fitted with 2 additional Pure Wings 140 fans, silence is largely assured, with only the maximum speed making itself slightly audible.
The integrated rheobus allows 6 3-pin fans to be connected, and has 3 speeds accessible from the top of the case, in addition to an "AUTO" position allowing the fan speed to be controlled via a PWM socket on your motherboard.
A very marginal negative point, given the 'closed' nature of this case: we regret Be Quiet!'s pettiness in not supplying the 5 covers for the HDD rail mounting slots present on the window version, which can be purchased separately at a dissuasive unit price.

It's a spacious, modular box, but I don't think it's very quiet. I had a Fractal Design R5 before, which was a bit dated, especially when it came to the connectors, but it had nothing to be ashamed of compared to this box. It's still a good product.

Very good value for money. Very ergonomic case, everything inside is designed to make it easy to fit components, manage cables and clean the PC.
You can choose between an insulated or airflow version, thanks to the interchangeable front and top grilles.
The case also features a 4-position control switch for the fans.
I fitted it with a "Be Quiet! Pure Loop 2 FX 360 MM water cooling system, the result was very satisfactory in terms of sound and ventilation.
I highly recommend it for people who want to go from a medium tower to a large tower.

Silent base 802 black nice case but could be improved
I bought this box to replace an enthoo pro, and I'm generally happy with it, with a few minor drawbacks. I'm not a big fan of the side opening system (from the top rather than the classic side opening), and I'm missing a few millimetres for the management cable on the partition side, so I had trouble closing the box once everything was installed (I didn't make a sausage).
The rack system for hdd is less simple than that of phantek.
That's it, the good points now.
The ability to choose between different partitions for the front panel and the top is very well done (even if at the moment, given the consumption of the equipment, I'm not sure that the all-enclosed version will hold up in terms of temperature).
The dust filters on the front and bottom are easy to access.
The space, it's a big tower box, there's plenty of room and even more, personally I've got the space but it's a big piece and it weighs a lot, but at least there's no need to contort yourself to install anything, it's very pleasant to work inside.
I chose the windowed version because it was the only one available at the time of ordering, but I don't regret it, it's nice to see inside the PC even without rgb.
There's less hardware supplied (screws and so on) than at phantek but it's enough.
The big tower style isn't for everyone, it's a personal choice. With the gradual disappearance of multiple hdds, 5.5 racks and multiple GPUs, mid-tower cases have the space to hold the biggest CGs of the moment (check carefully though) at a lower cost.
In short, I like my case but I wouldn't recommend it for a "general public" build, some people love shiny lights, but I like big cases^^.

Beautiful tower, with a choice of solid or mesh panels for silence or ventilation. I took the lattice and even like that, it is very quiet.
The interior is great, you just have to think before putting your compo, there is not always room to slide your hands afterwards.
I note a very slight downside, the small cage for the 2.5" SSD on the back. My Sandisk didn't fit in it. It's a pity.

It's Be Quiet!
A few years ago, I owned a silent base 600: A magnificent tower offering a great quality of manufacture, storage, space, but suffering from a big problem: Its lack of air flow! The front of the tower had very little space for air and the top was worse: just three air holes.
So the silent base 802 is a revision of the model in bigger with the listening of the community. We find the same arguments: space, beautiful manufacture, but now we have modularity with the possibility of modifying a little the tower. Even better, we still have acoustic foam, rubber tips in some places to calm vibrations and noise, but this time: they gave the possibility to exchange the top and the front for something more air flow! Not to mention that with a simple screw to remove, you can install an AIO without knocking out the tower, and put it all back on with a simple screw: good thinking.
At the moment I have a tower that is silent, well cooled and of good quality.
In short, Be Quiet is deutsche qualitat!

Very good tower
To keep it simple, I'll break it down into advantages / disadvantagesAdvantages:- A lot of working space, useful for cable management, for handling big components (watercooling 360, power supply, disk bay that can slider)- Enough space to accommodate a full custom WC- Ultra simple opening, you remove two screws, press two buttons and hop the faades are removed- A lot of airflow, my components have never been so well cooled- Power button and hub on top, I have a vega 64 WC, the fan is the loudest I've ever heard, and a power supply (Corsair HX1000i) which is very loud when going up in watts, I almost can't hear them anymore- Lots of room for the graphics card and the power supply:- The extra grille for the front was badly bent at manufacture and had trouble fitting- Space to have a proper management cable when the computer is well supplied can be tight, I have 2 distribution boxes for the fans, a colour selection box for the cpu watercooling, and cable extensions for the power supply- The fans are already mounted at reception, I would have preferred to have them spaced out- The anti-vibration pads supplied for the fans are self-adhesive and very fragile, Two big flaws- There is the possibility to add more bays to put more SSDs/HDDs, I would have liked to have enough to have more choice for placement, or eventually fill them all, but you have to buy them separately, and impossible to find them for a good price- Installation of the watercooling is difficult because of the length of the cables, moreover, a little bit of watercooling can be a problem with the high slot provided, covering the top of the motherboard (CPU sockets)

Almost perfect :)
Yes almost.... the box is more or less of the same vein, same quality as what is for a reference in terms of quality and silent box: the silent base 601.
With in more the modularity, and the whole in a very beautiful completion...
but! Just one negative point, I do not take away a star for that because it is not prohibitive, it is provided with correct fans, but without more, namely the silent wing 2. At the price of such a case, one has the right to expect silent wings of generation 3, much quieter, even at high load, and to crown this not idyllic picture, the small rheobus card installed in the case is designed to connect 3 pins fans and not 4....
Apart from this detail, because in the end nothing obliges us to use this rheobus and connect its own fans set in PVM on the motherboard, apart from this point the rest is faultless, hence this very good note, because with slient wing 3, it is very but very very quiet, totally inaudible.
