put it together with my RV-01.. RV-01 currently is being empty for future upgrade i7-950 (in process)

Sexy looking isn't it rclxms.gif the only drawback is very hard to find slot-in dvd rom and decent M-Atx mobo for SB (i7-2600k) doh.gif

cons of this casing:
*side panel (both side) is very easy to fall out.. not like others silverstone casing which has lock mechanism.. this one just slot-in and will fall out if not careful.
*flimsy plastic on top of casing
*useses shoe cabinet type of lock mechanism for front and top panel. see below

pros
*sexy looking?
*thick 2.5mm aluminum side panel
*'white' powder coat inside
*great cable management (better than existing 90 degree casing)

Pretty much standard if you already have 90 degree tilt casing

readed the manual and silverstone do suggest that this casing work best with normal fan and not recommended even their latest air penetrator fan (yes, u heard it right.. do not pair with air channeling fan due to the design)
or head to this website for more poison.. in japs though as this is only website dat do reviews for FT-03 currently

I can see how the penetrator fan would be bad for this casing. Is that PSU cable they included in the last picture? I recall the design on the pin is different than normal in order to fit in the casing.

Yes.. it's included.. and u rite again bout the psu cable.. user may have to re-route their psu cable biggrin.gif
