Bought this as my first rackmount chassis and so far have not disappointed. Using a 5950x with PBO enabled and an Arctic Freezer II 240 AIO where I replaced the stock fans with Noctua industrial 2000rpm fans, my peak temperature is around 74°C with the fans at 75% (PBO enabled at an acceptable speed for 200MHz over the standard Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master.Max temperature was 55C at factory settings.) Despite being a rackmount case, I admire Silverstone for offering vertical tower adjustment and USB3 and USB-C on the front, like all other cases, I only looked at the basic USB2. I noticed a slight flex in the case when the top PCIE stabilizer bracket was removed when I applied a small amount of torque to the front knobs. However, as I have no height limitations with my GPU (1050ti only, this machine is only meant to run a few clustered Ark: Survival servers) I brought it back just for structural stability reasons. In any case, there is no torque applied to it under normal circumstances, so this is not a big problem. The stock fans it came with were BeCool and I couldn't find any information on them even with a part number. The fansite itself also appears to be dead. They are marked on the drawing as 0.51A and 0.53A respectively (rear 80mm and front 120mm) meaning that there is a potential risk of burning out the fan connectors if you daisy chain any of these fans, since most fan connectors are only rated for 1A. I think I made the right choice for my first rackmount experience and I will update this review if my choice turns out to be wrong!
