Conclusion and Thoughts

SilverStone continues to excel with each new case introduction.  It is a little sad that they have not focused too much on towers for regular systems but the SG01 sure makes up for it.  It allows enthusiasts to build their own SFF without sacrificing flexibility in their hardware choices.  The only downside would probably be the price.  Coming in at a little under $200, this case is not very affordable.  It seems like it has been designed for those who can really dish out the greens for a high end computer system.  I guess it can be justified in that, not all gamers are overclockers and so they'll end up spending a lot of money on building a good LAN system anyway.  Either way, for the money you spend, you'll be getting a case well worth the money.  The entire chassis is made of aluminum.  The finish is exceptional.  Installation is a breeze.  Cooling has been made sufficient to handle high end video cards and CPU's.  There are just so many positive features to the SG01 that makes it a worthwhile investment.  For those who want to build a SFF system without buying a semi "pre-built" unit, look no further.  This is it.

Pros:

• All aluminum
• Extremely light weight
• Great aluminum finish
• Very roomy
• Easy installation of hardware
• Able to handle latest CPU's and video cards
• Able to handle standard ATX power supplies

Cons:

• A bit expensive
• No floppy bay
