Priced at €269, £259 or $269 depending on your location the Dark Base Pro 900 PC case is now available to purchase worldwide. The removable motherboard tray is installable in six different positions, accommodating all types of motherboard form factors, up to E-ATX or XL-ATX. Expandable LED strips running at 12 volts are included, illuminating the interior with different colors, easily synchronizing with popular RGB controller ecosystems and components. I am interested on the front airflow. Is the chassis getting good airflow. It has three 140mm PWM fans so if airflow is good then this will be a fine 'quiet' PC case.

    Seems like every case I have seen looks like they might not have enough front airflow but I guess they would be checking for that.

    another "upside down" case ... not sure I'm a fan of any of these kinds of cases (with mobo oriented "upside down")

    Apparently, the case swings both ways meaning it has a motherboard tray so you can choose which orientation you prefer.
    The evidence is in the two pics posted in the OP.
    The case is designed to Be Quiet pardon the pun, but airflow restriction is familiar with these type cases. 
    I'm always impressed with Be Quiet's designs, styling and details but I have never owned one of their cases so I cannot comment on build quality or durability. 
    Its a good looking versatile case that I'm sure will please those who value less noise.

    my carbide 300r has good airflow and it has been a stalwart of stability
     
    not bad for a low cost box
