I really like the case. It's quite and has plenty of room inside. Only problem when installing is DVD drive cage, it took awhile to get it right. Another problem is LCD. It look like the whole lcd is shifted upward a little bit showing couple of rows of white pixels. The lcd problem can be fixed with powerstrip. Overall it's a great HTPC case.
 
Very awesome. I love that, and the LCD looks great. The RSS ticker is cool. :cool:
 
No it doesn't have rack mount option and the build quility is excellent all aluminum with no sharp edge.
 
what are you using to have that interface on the LCD?

is that built into Vista media center?
 
Sweet. The case came complete with the display and DVD drive?
 
Nice case and build. I was considering that one but having to attach the DVD bezel looks like a pain plus i dont need the touch screen (big price premium). How did it work out for you?

P.S.- Please post some more pics of the insides. Also how high is the case? I was considering that cpu cooler but wasnt sure if it would fit. Also it looks like you have SATA hard drives not IDE :confused: Anyways thanks and I really appreciate the post!
 
Thanks for all the comments. The LCD is build into the case and it just comes with the DVD bezel not the drive itself. The bezel itself was easy to installed. It just some sticky pad that you applied directly to the tray after you take off the original bezel. Yeah, the lcd is just mostly for the WOW factor, but it can come in handy like playing music files which you can control within the touch screen using software that it came with it called imon/iMedian. What I like most about the imon/lcd is that is show the music bar graph when playing music files using iMedian or Vista media center.

I've measure from bottom inside of the case to the top and it's approx. 6 inches. Yes the HDD is sata, must have mistaken it for DVD drive.


Here's some more pictures upon request. Thanks.

Nice. Is that the one with 12" 1080p screen? The software I'm using with my case is called iMON/iMEDIAN. The software came with the case, but I don't know if it compatible with your htpc. Please post some picture when you're done.
 
I think Silverstone CW03 is the only enclosure with the full HD screen. I could be wrong though. Any enclosure with an LCD is just eyecandy.
 
sure i will post pics during the build. I will be using the same case, so i suppose it will come with. My set up is similar to youre besides using a thermaltake rhythm liquid cooling solution.
