PC silence means more now than ever before. While we love to have powerful machines, we also want peace and quiet, and understandably so. NZXT recently released their Whisper full-tower that's poised to deliver the best of both worlds. Can this huge chassis deliver the silence we're looking for, along with the functionality?

I guess there could be a loud whisper?
What were they thinking when they named it the " NZXT Whisper " You get it home, set it up and running and then think " Huh " , " That's kind of loud " End of file

Maybe it was designed for those who think they are whispering when really they are just talking at normal volume?

We placed an addendum in the review:
NZXT contacted us to let us know that they've recognized that with high-end components, temperatures can get too high. To remedy this, if anyone would like to receive a front-fan assembly for free, you can contact the e-mail address as laid out on their support page.
