Aerocool Dead Silence DS200 Mid-Tower Chassis Review

Complete System
Total build time on the DS200 was just twenty minutes, it was a quick and pain free installation overall and the case is an absolute joy to work with.
I stripped out the top hard drive bay to make room for our Sapphire R9 270X which would have conflicted with the bays. However that still leaves us with four hard drive bays in total and that’s more than enough for most builds.
There is loads of room for our graphics card to breath and while we couldn’t get two of these Sapphire cards in here due to their massive cooler that extends off the back, there is easily enough room for a multi-GPU configuration and wider cards such as the new Asus models.
CPU cooler clearance is really nice too, the Raijintek Themis only just fit, but it’s a lovely colour match for the chassis front panels and it really makes me wish we had the window side panel for the DS200.
Overall the build is really clean, took very little effort to put together and all the interior components are really nicely laid out with good airflow and filtering.
