Game Max Hush
The latest chassis from Game Max is here at last. It’s one of their mid-budget solutions, packing in a huge amount of features for a very reasonable price. We’ve been impressed by their chassis many times before, offering great features at very competitive prices. Some of their £100+ models have been a bit hit and miss, but will the Hush be the sweet spot in the middle? Packing a huge tempered glass window, built-in fan controller, PSU shroud, hidden storage, good quality pre-installed fans, noise dampening materials and so much more. You’re getting all the features of many high-end chassis, but for just under £75, it’s far cheaper than many rivals. Let’s dive in for a closer look!
Features
- A fan controller is included on the top of the Hush allowing you to control your fan speeds to better suit your needs.
- Full tempered glass on the front and left side panel allowing the user to show their internal components from all angles.
- 2 x 120mm black frame with white bladed fans at the front and 1 x 120mm Single-Ring Halo RGB fan at the back, increase airflow and add colour to your chassis.
- A PCB hub included with the Hush supports a total of 10 devices, once connected to the hub you can control the speed and the mode of your fans.
- The LED button on the I/O panel allows the user to change the colour of the Single-Ring Halo RGB fan quickly and efficiently.
- A dust filter on the bottom of the Hush helps to prevent dust from getting into your build and helps improve the performance of your chassis.

What Game Max Had to Say
“With a brand new 2018 range Game Max have introduced the Game Max Hush RGB Silent Gaming case it comes with soundproofing for the gaming enthusiast who wants a cool and quiet rig – the built-in sound dampening matting will keep your system quiet and allow you to hear what you want to be hearing. With a very simple and classic design, it comes with a tempered glass front panel and a full tempered glass left side panel. The Hush has 1 fan controller on the top allowing you to control the speed of your fans quickly and efficiently.”
I bought a system that includes the Game Max Hush Tempered Glass Mid-Tower case and I really like it.
The sound dampening material makes this the quietest PC I’ve ever own. That said I have a slight problem I needed to replace the halo fan and one of the white fans on the front due to them having broken fins. I contacted the CCL, the company that built the machine and they have had difficulty sending replacement fans because they have no spares lying around and they say Game Max have none either. On top of that even though my machine is only 18 months old (purchase Jan 2020) Game Max have stopped making the Hush Tempered Glass model and I can not find a PDF of the case that used to be on their website. I have tried sending Game Max a message via their contact page, but so far they have not responded.
I was hoping to find a PDF of the case specs so going forward I make sure I replace the fans with similar that have the same size/type of connectors. I’m a chef not PC geek so any help would be appreciated.
