Silverstone Dropped the Ball

Removing the hard drive bay behind the PSU requires drilling out rivets, which my PSU won't fit without. Even if it were, many people don't need it, so just make it removable. Restrictive front panel. You can remove the projector debris (which shouldn't matter initially) and the bottom cover (front bezel) to fix it. What were you even thinking about? Speaking of the front panel, I've broken all the clips now. The faceplate would probably have fallen off if I hadn't removed the bottom cover, which would "expand" the sides of the faceplate enough to create a spring and hold it in place with steel balls, which is nice. . BIG OOF otherwise. The screw slots on the top of the case are not recessed. So if you need fans at the top and you're using a mesh insert, you'll see the screw heads sticking out through the mesh. A REAL big oversight. Some of the screw holes were painted and it was difficult to insert the screws. I think that's it. PROS: Looks good from the front. I've been using the Silverstone TJ08 for about 12 years and I really like this case. Silverstone is really wrong on this issue. I was such a Silverstone fan and I fell in love with this case but MAN they let me down.

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Not sure
