Noise Output Results
Fans
The four RX120 fans reached about 46 dBA at full speed, but this is an extreme use scenario as most users won’t use the fans at full speed.

Fans
The 4x RX120 fans we used in the 6500x are the fastest and noisiest. The Montech King 95 Pro also passes the 40 dBA mark, while its fans spin at notably lower RPMs than the RX120.
GPU
At low GPU fan speeds, the 6500X allows little noise to escape; however, at higher fan speeds, the difference to the other chassis is relatively insignificant. We should note here that in the two XPG cases, the CPU’s fan speed was higher than in the other two cases, hence the increased noise at low GPU fan speeds (40% and 50%).

What about the top and side panels coming warped out of the box ? And the awful filter material inside the side panel which can easily come loose. The mediocre cable management (having to buy straps), no support holder for PSU, no removable top rad bracket and almost no offset so eps cables a challenge when mounting AIO. Also the incredible weight. Antec c8 and others are built better and better value.
We didn’t face any issues with the top and side panels; otherwise, we would have written about it. I will also pass your comment about the side panel material to the reviewer to comment if he wants.
No support holder for the PSU? I didn’t understand that.
When mounting a top AIO most cases have an issue with the EPS cables, some even without a top-mounted AIO.
We will do more case reviews in the near future and will have more comparison data.
Thank you for your comments!
