1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,200
a little while back lonus and I built a mini Beast of machine in this

2
00:00:03,399 --> 00:00:11,200
Silverstone sg-13 with an 18 core Intel processor a Titan x dual ssds and other

3
00:00:09,559 --> 00:00:15,440
things the case was able to fit everything which by default made it

4
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:18,800
awesome considering how big it is so we decided to review it and also don't

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:23,110
forget to stay subscribed to lus Tech tips because scrapyard Wars is finally

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:28,079
coming

7
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:35,960
back Kingston casc 310 series business grade

8
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:40,559
ssds feature firmware based power loss protection massive capacities and

9
00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:45,520
performance to spare in fact we're using them for our new production server click

10
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:54,960
right here to learn more about them starting on the outside of this 220 mm

11
00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:58,239
wide 181 mm tall 285 mm deep 11.5 L 2.4

12
00:00:54,960 --> 00:01:00,039
kg case we have a classy aesthetic that

13
00:00:58,239 --> 00:01:04,400
will dynamically fit into any home theater setup or any computer desk with

14
00:01:02,559 --> 00:01:10,159
ease regardless of whether or not you go with the higher airflow dimpled mesh

15
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:12,200
version that we have or also the foo

16
00:01:10,159 --> 00:01:16,439
brushed aluminum option just below the mesh on our unit is a Silverstone logo

17
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:23,040
in the bottom leftand corner with dual USB 3.0 Jacks and dual 3.5 mm audio

18
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:27,360
jacks on the far right hand side on the left side of the case we see a very

19
00:01:24,439 --> 00:01:32,079
large mesh which should allow for any compatible size graphics cards that's

20
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:36,360
anything with a length of 10.5 in or below to breathe quite easily also we

21
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:40,159
see a little bit of breathable mesh for the front intake of the case just along

22
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:44,360
the side of the front bezel on top of the case is a mostly plain although

23
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:48,360
there is a fairly sizable mesh on the back where your PSU or other various

24
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:52,600
incidental case air flow could go through we decided to mount our PSU with

25
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:56,600
the fan on the bottom to help pull uh air directly from the system so won't

26
00:01:54,119 --> 00:02:00,600
help there but anyways over on the right hand side we have a smaller mesh panel

27
00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:04,360
with incidental airf flow and yet again we see a bit more breathable mesh for

28
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:08,479
the intake of the case just along the front bezel the back of the case is

29
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:13,920
pretty simple revealing the cutout for an internally mounted power supply an IO

30
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:18,640
shield and a little tiny bit air flow meshing just above the externally

31
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:21,640
secured addin card slots then we get to the bottom which features four nice

32
00:02:20,239 --> 00:02:27,800
little rubber feet which do a pretty good job of keeping the case from sliding around too much even with a fair

33
00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:31,519
amount of force applied and it lifts off lifts it up off the Surface by a little

34
00:02:29,519 --> 00:02:35,959
bit and while this doesn't really help with cooling by much as there's no mesh

35
00:02:33,519 --> 00:02:40,720
on the bottom it does make picking it up that much easier which leaves us with

36
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:44,920
four pre-cut holes for mounting an SSD on the bottom of the inside of the case

37
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:50,519
once you remove the outer kind of u-shaped frame you see that the inside

38
00:02:47,319 --> 00:02:52,319
of the case has well not much to be

39
00:02:50,519 --> 00:02:56,480
frank there's a nice steel plate that holds two ssds or one hard drive up and

40
00:02:54,879 --> 00:02:59,480
out of the way near the top of the case which also features two little indented

41
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:03,480
bits where you can easily plug in the SSD these or one cutout where you can

42
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:07,120
plug in the hard drive and then we have a little bracket which helps hold up the

43
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:11,280
power supply so it doesn't bend the frame of the case or droop onto any of

44
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:17,840
the other components and then which brings us to the 120 mm or 140 mm fan or

45
00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:21,120
radiator mount in the front of the case one word of warning with this is be

46
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:26,000
careful with the length of your tubing as this can uh cause some issues if you

47
00:03:23,799 --> 00:03:29,120
check this video out from lonus and I building the system we had a hell of a

48
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:33,159
time getting everything to fit due to the magic of editing you didn't

49
00:03:31,239 --> 00:03:36,000
necessarily see all of that but it did take us quite a long time to get

50
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:40,439
everything to work without any kinked tubing just trust me it was a bit of a

51
00:03:38,879 --> 00:03:44,040
hassle but worth it considering it worked and in the end we were able to

52
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:49,920
fit everything in this tiny tiny little case and that's about it other than you

53
00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:53,760
know like motherboard standoffs do I sound

54
00:03:50,879 --> 00:03:57,239
disappointed I'm not I know I might but I'm actually not that's all there is but

55
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:01,280
that's fine this case actually makes that a good thing with many cases you

56
00:03:59,319 --> 00:04:05,079
can have someone pick it up and you'll know fairly accurately what they're

57
00:04:03,519 --> 00:04:10,400
going to put inside of it with this thing not really other than an ITX

58
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:14,360
motherboard and a graphics card it's pretty much up in the air do they go

59
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:19,120
with the super crazy high-end sleeper like system that lion I did with a Titan

60
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:23,320
X and 32 gigs of RAM and an 18 core processor or do they go with a low power

61
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:26,919
CPU and something like a 750 Ti because it doesn't take a dedicated power slot

62
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:31,360
so it doesn't take up that much power at all just sipping power for a home

63
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:35,639
theater box it's a cheap case but it looks classy as hell and will suit

64
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:39,919
whatever you decide to put into it so in conclusion like I just said it's cheap

65
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:43,720
but it feels fairly well built it's small but it fits a lot in it for its

66
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:47,880
size it lacks an extensive feature set yet somehow accommodates creativity

67
00:04:45,919 --> 00:04:51,080
there's a fantastic and unique feeling of really thinking that the component

68
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:55,160
you were trying to put into it isn't going to fit even when you line it up

69
00:04:53,039 --> 00:05:00,160
but then having it fit or finding a way to fairly painlessly make it fit every

70
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:03,639
damn time anyways this isn't a 100 100% unique case there's cases that are very

71
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:07,440
similar to this but especially at this price point I think it does make quite a

72
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:11,639
bit of sense all right guys I look a little bit different because I'm actually in the middle of building my

73
00:05:10,039 --> 00:05:15,560
system for scrapyard Wars which is coming soon but I had to pause for a

74
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:19,800
great message from our friends over at Mass drop they have something a bit

75
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:24,680
different for you guys today this thing they currently have a drop available for

76
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:27,080
the Chic smart S1 scooter which is a

77
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:31,560
self-balancing two wheed electric scooter and it's rated at 12 M of range

78
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:36,479
on a single charge and is capable of traveling at up to 6 M or 10 km per hour

79
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:40,280
while you won't be breaking any land speed records necessarily or off-roading

80
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:44,080
through the hills on this pretty cool thing it's a smooth travel on a smooth

81
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:48,360
surface and it's a pretty good conversation starter due to its

82
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:51,600
preserved but interesting appearance of course this is available through massop

83
00:05:50,280 --> 00:05:55,039
which means it's a significantly discounted price thanks to the group by

84
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:59,680
model essentially the more people that buy it the more the price goes down to a

85
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:03,960
set minimum with its minimum price being just under 30% below MSRP you can check

86
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:08,800

88
00:06:10,479 --> 00:06:15,039
actually give us a kickback or anything but it does let them know that we sent
