Hey guys,

In case you didn't know, Cooler Master has a brand new case that, as far as I know, has not yet even been introduced to the North American market as of yet. But I've had a chance to have a look at it.

Check out my blog entries on the Silencio 550's cable management potential and its thermal and acoustic performance.

Thanks for your time!

(Edit: Link fixed. Sorry about that.)

Either someone pooched your hosting (not likely) or you completely pooched posting the links, 'cause the first one is useless (could be banned considering it's been auto-converted to a bunch of plus signs) and the second is pointing to some auto review someplace.

Might wanna check those and see what you can do...
 
its a pretty nice looking case.

kinda pricey though...

Love the design. Ever since my new chassis has an exhaust fan on the top, I can't go back. Case may some trouble with cosair H series no?
 
Just in case you thought you couldn't stuff a dual 120mm radiator inside a Silencio 550, here's proof that you can:

See how this build developed over at CMHD.tv Blog.
 
Nice looking blog with good info.


Much better than some of these so called "review" sites who don't even bother to install hardware in the case.

Won't that make it kinda hard to have say... graphics cards? ;)

Yes, that IS a serious compromise to be made. (I was waiting for someone to make that very comment, to be honest ;))

Of course, I wouldn't put a beefy gaming rig in one. :) If I were, though, I'd definitely hack away the drive cages (very easy: just drill the eight rivets out, and the bottom cage will be off; the top cage is designed to come off) and mount the radiator up against the front intake.
