I've read a thread about the Silverstone SGO8 and there is a user "<orangensaft" that has some wishes for a SG09
----------------------------------------
- no ODD
- no 3,5'' Drive
- can fit two 2,5'' Drives (SSD&HDD)
- can fit a ATX PSU
- can fit a GTX 580
- can fit something like a Mugen 2
- same size as a SG05/06
- smaller footprint than a SG05/06 (only about as big as the front of them!)
----------------------------------------------
I like most of the ideas. The idea of removing the optical disc drive seems like a good idea. I almost never use my drive. And removing the drive would give a little more space and better airflow. The most important thing for me though is that would make the front of the case more clean and appealing. Just buy an external drive and use it when you from time to time need it. The only problem with <orangensaft's wishlist is that I still would like the option to have a 3,5" hard disk installed.
For me the design of the case is very important. Some of the case manufacturers designs are horrible if you ask me. I like the design of a few cases , but they also have their problems
Lan Gear DA BOX 100 :
Very small microATX, stylish
Bad product quality
Lian Li PC-V354B
Overall nice design,fan speed controller, high build quality
Front is too ugly, lightning like in a disco
Lian Li PC-Q25
Pretty clean design, high build quality
No USB outlets on the front, Mini ITX
Shuttle XPC Z77R5
classy design, easy to assemble
want a more high end motherboard, power supply, not yet available to buy
Silverstone FT03
Unusual design, other people will notice it
Side plastic panel ugly, slim optical drive not pretty
Silverstone SG08
Good design
Not to happy about the power supply and the cable mess
Silverstone TJ08-E
Good design, excellent cooling, low noise, low cost
Top of case is ugly, 3,5" drive bay also bad idea
Now I just need a manufacturer to create a case where they take the good stuff from my list and create the best they can think of. I need a very small stylish micro ATX case with a clean front without any drive bays. Build quality needs to be excellent. Noise / heat should be tackled thoughtfully. Money is not a problem
What do you think of my wishes and what would be on your wish list to create the best small computer case?
