SilverStone Technology Slim Computer Case for Mini-ITX Motherboards with Integrated RGB Lighting RVZ03B

Silverstone thought of everything with this beautiful piece of hardware. The fact that you can fit a full size dual slot gpu in something barely bigger than an xbox one is simply amazing! I was at a crossroads on whether I wanted to get a gaming laptop or build SFF. Once I saw what this case was capable of, I found my answer. I don't really travel enough to justify the cost of a high end gaming laptop and I wanted something capable of running games at high/max settings. Gaming laptops are nice but if you want to run full graphics you will easily spend 1500+ and it's not even upgrade-able. This is actually a secondary build for me. My main rig is a monster with dual 780ti's. It's housed in a corsair 900D tower. The case weighs 41 lbs, empty. It was built for one purpose. Gaming at 4k with max settings. It's a thing of beauty, Gaben himself would be proud, but it nearly breaks my back to move it anywhere. Taking it to a friends house is simply not an option unless I was going to be there for several days at least. It's a daunting task without even considering the wires. Back to the Raven case. I'm completely in love with it. It's aesthetically pleasing to look at. And it uses the space inside the case very efficiently. Installing everything was a breeze as well. Although I have tried a few different ways to manage the cables.I'm not going to lie it will test your cable management skills. Airflow seems good. I'm using a low profile noctua cooler for the cpu and it idles in the mid 30s. Barely warmer than my watercooled i7 in the other build. Very impressive. The GPU runs at more than reasonable temps. When I ran 3D mark firestrike it barely broke 65 celsius. I could even overclock the thing. Needless to say airflow is exceptional inside the case. Things to consider when buying this case. There are some extra costs that will go along with any build in this case. You will want to buy the SFX PSU from silverstone and a slot load disc drive. Yes,I would recommend spending the extra cash on a disc drive. You could spend less on an external, but the idea of this build was simplicity and adding in an external part takes away from that. If you're gpu will use more than 170 watts TDP, you may want to opt for the 600 watt variant of the PSU. The one I chose was the 450 watt. For reference, I am running a GTX 760 currently. I'm waiting on EVGA to send me a confirmation for their step up program and I am upgrading the GPU to a 970. Funny enough the 970 is nearly as powerful as a 780ti and uses less power than a 760! Yay maxwell! Back on topic, you will also want to get the short sleeve cable set for the silverstone PSU. The great thing about the PSU is that it is fully modular. Meaning you only attach the cables you need. This is crucial in a SFF build since space is a limiting factor. Here is my build. z97 mini itx motherboard from gigabyte i5 4670k 8 gb hyperx kingston ram EVGA GTX 760 SC (Soon to be a 970, hopefully) Samsung 840 evo 250 gb SSD Silverstone slot load dvd writer. Silverstone tek SFX 450 watt PSU This system is an absolute power house and is small enough to fit in a small duffle bag. It can't touch my other system, but it will still run any game at full graphics at 1080p. It will easily handle 1440p and probably some 4k once I get a 970 in it. I may never build in a large tower again after this. I am truly impressed. Thanks Silver Stone!

Pros: The case aesthetically looks amazing and is made of durable, solid materials (case plates are made of steel, and the front plate is made of thick, solid, high-quality plastic). The case looks and feels high quality because it is. The material of the case seems resistant to oil/dust impressions, which is just another tick on the list of "nice-to-haves" this case has, and overall contributes to its high-quality look and feel. There are many options to customize the RGB strip's color using the motherboard control box. Blue, green, red, purple, and white are the ones I came across. White/Blue is shown in the pictures. The case supports a horizontal or vertical position, whichever you prefer, attachable foam kickstands for both options are included. As for airflow/temperatures, the case does very well. My CPU temps at idle are 30C-40C, with a 34 degrees C average over 2 hours of usage (internet/video streaming/minor programs only). During the same timeframe, my GPU temps were between 30-42 C. Under load (playing Grim Dawn), the temperatures also did very well. CPU ran 38-55 C and the GPU at 45-55 C, with the default (quiet) fan profiles being set. I think even better GPU temps could be achieved if you are willing to change fan profiles. Under a heavy load (playing MH: World to test): CPU ran 46-67 C and GPU ran 65-76C with default fan profile. Still pretty good. So overall, if you are wanting a small form factor case, with great airflow, this is a good option. Cons: The RGB header that is attached to the case for hookup to the motherboard (to control the RGB strip via motherboard software) doesn't work with ASUS motherboards (and probably quite a few others) and is proprietary. You won't be able to control the RGB strip via your motherboard without getting some sort of adapter (which I don't know if it actually exists). Silverstone does not provide an adapter to work with motherboards which have 5V addressable header. Only ones that have a 12V header will work with this case without any adapter. Cable management is an absolute nightmare, it was possible for me, but it literally took hours (1-2) and multiple (5+) revisions. Do not buy a 150 mm PSU. It says that it would fit, but I don't know how. I bought a 140 mm PSU and it barely fit. It was VERY tight to get everything inside and manage the cables in an appropriate way. A picture is attached to see how cable management was done. The case is not easy to work in.

This is one of the best itx cases on the market that still has a slim optical drive bay. It was actually pretty simple to put my new rig together, and you can tell that Silverstone put a lot of thought into the internal design. I was especially happy to learn that this case is able to support larger graphics cards, because this saved me a lot of time waiting for my new video card to arrive due to the pandemic. There are very few negative things about the case itself, but if I had to choose, I would say that the harddrive is in a bit of a tight space, the USB ports at the front have given me a few minor issues, and it would be better if the case was all metal. Other than that It's an excellent case!

El case es calidad superior a cualquier otro, increible que con su pequeno tamano tenga espacio para tantas cosas, tiene una muy buena refrigeracion y sus materiales son de calidad, escogi este case por sus buenas medidas, instale una tarjeta microATX (que es mas grande) y las adaptaciones fueron muy pocas, tan solo quite la basedel a fuente de poder e instale la fuente de poder del otro lado, con una tarjeta de video EVGA 1060 6gb formato mini ITX quedo perfecto, ademas le puse la refrigeracion liquida Tundra TD-03 Slim de esta misma marca y todo quedo preciso y perfecto, nada de desperdiciar espacio es un diseno excelente y con muy buena ventilacion.. Recomiendo utilizar sistema liquido con este case, por ser pequeno es mejor mantener el calor del procesador siempre fuera

Su entrega en pocos dias y la calidad del producto muy buena, el diseño aprobechando todo el espacio es muy bueno, una buena opcion si no se puede comprar el RVZ02-W, este gabinete no le pide nada

Excelente gabinete ITX, bastante compacto y delgado, casi parecido a un ps4, hay pocos gabinetes que se puedan comparar, tiene suficientes espacios para colocar ventiladores y evitar calentamientos, aun con su reducido espacio, sabiendo acomodar, se puede tener una excelente gestion de cables, tiene mucho espacio para la tarjeta de video, por lo que podrias colocar facilmente una 1080, excelente opcion para los amantes de las mini pc

The case looks nice but has several issues. It is very difficult to work with once you install the power supply. There is barley any room to route the cables to where they need to go if you can even manage to jamb the power supply in place long enough to get it screwed in place. Also the screws that come with this case are so low quality that the heads start to strip with the slightest turn of the screw driver. Once its all together and closed it looks very nice and is very easy to pick up and move around, I just dread every time I have to open it to have to do anything on the inside.
