A new generation of style! The Define R3 case is reaching new heights in combining stylish, contemporary design with maximum functionality and noise absorbing features. The minimalistic, yet stunning front panel design, fitted with noise absorbing material on the inside, creates an aura of exclusivity.
The patent pending feature ModuVent™, in which you can choose whether to have side and top panels open or not, makes the case appealing for users seeking optimal silence, as well as the performance hungry ones.
The sleek black interior is matched with pre-fitted, dense noise absorbing material on the side panels, efficiently absorbing noise and vibrations. You can fit an astonishing total of eight(!) hard drives into this case, using the user friendly HDD-trays. All painted in a nice white color and using black silicone mounts. PSU is mounted in the bottom of the case, with a convenient pull-out filter beneath it.
Are you one of those users always ending up with a case full of tangled cables? No more. The Define R3 offers a convenient and good looking way of hiding them away. The motherboard has rubber covered holes in which you can easily route the cables behind the motherboard.

This has been a great case for me, I absolutely love the cable management. EXTREMELY silent as well, if you're looking to give up a little airflow for a LOT of noise reduction, this is your case.

Decent case, love the looks and it is easier to work with than some cases I've used before. Definitely not toolless, but only requires a screwdriver.

bought this over the lian-li PC-A05NB and Antec Solo II only because this was only one in-store. Is slightly taller then i was hoping for but will make do. Absolute joy to build in. no sharp edges, tons of space for cable management behind mobo tray. thought i did something wrong the first time i switched it on before the monitor came to life, it was dead silent. not even the p1xx antec series comes close to this sound proofing. would buy this again for office or home.

This case is really heavy which makes it not easy to move around. Aside from that this case is awesome. Very quiet! It has dust filters at the bottom for the PSU, for an optional bottom fan, and 2 dust filters at the front for 2 optional front fans. All intake fans have dust filters! Easy to route cables as there are punch out holes along the mother board tray. Very satisfied!

Very nice case, and my go to case for all my office builds now. Nice fans and easy to work with case.
Not sure what one of the previous reviews was refering too with limited SSD mounting options as a SSD drive will mount in any spot a 3.5" drive will.

This is a BEAUTIFUL case, super quiet but the downsides is that its really heavy and the HDD mounting trays aren't all that great, the part I disliked the most is the limited options on mounting an SSD
