[Computex 2010]SilverStone RV03
-
First Raven was a decent looking case, RV02 was a little ugly, this looks 100% pug fugly....
-
This case looks ugly as sin, but I bet it cools very well. Price anyone?

120~150usd

And why exactly does it have fans mounted in the front? The bezels look solid for a start and with those 2 massive fans sucking air in from the bottom surely they are completely unnecessary.
-
-
Totally love the Raven series. But this case? Oh hell no
-
ble.. i don't understand why silverstone went from a good classic look to this fugly "stealth" look.. it looks loke crap... -_-
-
Notice how they seem to have installed two 4870x2's and they barely fit (at least from how the pictures look). Meaning a 5870 / GTX480 will also just fit and a 5970 is out of the question. Also, why does the plasic at the top look so cheap?
EDIT: Nope, seems like there will be enough clearance for a 12-inch card. Still, it doesn't change how fugly the case looks. :)
EDIT 2: For the love of God, those aren't 4870x2's, they're leftover prototype boards of the never-released 2900XTX Clickie. Epic, actually :rofl:
-
Oh Silverstone what were you guys smoking when designing this.

Yeah, look so cheap and too dirty :shakes:
-
Front looks horrid and the top looks like an old factory roof, also the drives... are they all mounted on the reverse side? How are they cooled, I'm not too keen on that location.
-
This breaks the fugly level :down:
-
They ruined the Raven series with this one! Nobody wants now to make nice looking cases from the outside?
-
Looks like cheapo crap with teh plastic(?) stuff :(
-
Looks like it's made from second hand plastic :), at least the top part; its front looks like it's being made from cheap toy plastic.

The design does look fugly, but I don't particularly mind as long as it's got some badass cooling and good functionality.
It's only a prototype anyway :)
-
Some one needs to be fired for this case/ prototype/abomination. Yeah there you go, forget Raven, Abomination is the new name.
-
raven rev. 2 was nice.
but this is unforgivably fugly.
-
I like the inside of the RV03, especially the PSU-placement, the rest however, did not appeal to me very much ;/.

Really really really nasty looking. Maybe without the plastic it would look cool. :shrug:
-
The styling reminds me of Raidmax's chassis.
-
Not impressed :down: I'm waiting for the Haf X to appear in retail here, its looking to be a great case. I still love my TJ07s design and shape however I'm most likely going to sell all my water cooling gear and just go high end air from here on out and although its been running decently on air, the TJ07 is somewhat ancient compared to newer air designs ( 92mm fans lolwut? )
-
Silverstone used to make such clean, simple cases that looked great. They've really lost their way.
-
doesnt look anything like a raven anymore
-
The case looks really nice. Look at the responses in this thread...
"oh wahhh it looks crappy" x infinity
A case is made to be functional first and foremost.
Here's a few of things that stood out for me:
-their new vortex fans that I saw in a vid, and that actually do work very well
-the power supply's power cable actually goes in case and sneaks out the top i believe (very cool and handy)
-handle for lifting
-they added a fan at the top front/top back to bring fresh air to the CPU area
-improved cable management from what I could tell
Sure it's not going to impress the classy Euro girlfriend that you don't have and never will, but it does the job a case is supposed to do.
-
Whats with the punk ass top mohawk roof?
-
CoolerMaster puts it to shame even form what i've seen today :D
-
I don't understand why should this ugly case be news, to begin with... :p:

Looks like it was designed for hardcore 12yr olds who like mohawks and thier favorite color just so happened to be blue. :rofl:

Yep, massive disappointment. Just saw the new TJ-11 will have a stupid rotated mobo tray aswell... Looks like i'll be stick with Lian Li for the foreseeable future.
-
This case makes me want to throw a baby off a....just joking.
It's so ugly!

They still make those clean, simple cases that you're talking about. Just look at their Fortress 2 case for example, it's basically a very clean looking Raven 2.
I agree that this prototype looks like crap though. Let's just hope that the end result will look nothing like it.
-
Kill it with fire....
Jeeeez so damn ugly.
-
Oh god, this looks like :banana::banana::banana::banana:. What's with the blue? Looks like those paper tape to me.

double that, easily. Silverstone is known for making high quality cases, just look at the cost of the TJ07.
Not saying I would pay that much for this, but clearly someone will otherwise the prices would have leveled out years ago
-
hmm vid said the hdd are at the back of mobo tray
didnt mention how many hdd.
-
Silverstone guys must have been smoking some heavy s*** and watching Hellraiser... How come you go from serious looking RV02 to this.. well, really don't know how to call it :shrug:
-
I wish they got rid of all that unnecessary plastic crap.
-
-
-
Man, I thought this looked pretty sweet.....at least until I read the comments and then you guys changed my mind.
lol just kidding, but I do kinda like the looks of it so far.

Actually, the more I look at it the more I like the interior. There's just so much more that could've been done to the exterior, I would like to see someone mod one of these :)
-
Anyone have any info on when the RV03 might become available in the UK? Or even at all, as have not seen any info on it since this event where it was demo'd. Is it even going to go into production?
