00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.200
a little while back lonus and I built a mini Beast of machine in this

00:00:03.399 --> 00:00:11.200
Silverstone sg-13 with an 18 core Intel processor a Titan x dual ssds and other

00:00:09.559 --> 00:00:15.440
things the case was able to fit everything which by default made it

00:00:13.160 --> 00:00:18.800
awesome considering how big it is so we decided to review it and also don't

00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:23.110
forget to stay subscribed to lus Tech tips because scrapyard Wars is finally

00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:28.079
coming

00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:35.960
back Kingston casc 310 series business grade

00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:40.559
ssds feature firmware based power loss protection massive capacities and

00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:45.520
performance to spare in fact we're using them for our new production server click

00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:54.960
right here to learn more about them starting on the outside of this 220 mm

00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:58.239
wide 181 mm tall 285 mm deep 11.5 L 2.4

00:00:54.960 --> 00:01:00.039
kg case we have a classy aesthetic that

00:00:58.239 --> 00:01:04.400
will dynamically fit into any home theater setup or any computer desk with

00:01:02.559 --> 00:01:10.159
ease regardless of whether or not you go with the higher airflow dimpled mesh

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:12.200
version that we have or also the foo

00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:16.439
brushed aluminum option just below the mesh on our unit is a Silverstone logo

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

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

00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:32.079
large mesh which should allow for any compatible size graphics cards that's

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:36.360
anything with a length of 10.5 in or below to breathe quite easily also we

00:01:34.600 --> 00:01:40.159
see a little bit of breathable mesh for the front intake of the case just along

00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:44.360
the side of the front bezel on top of the case is a mostly plain although

00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:48.360
there is a fairly sizable mesh on the back where your PSU or other various

00:01:46.600 --> 00:01:52.600
incidental case air flow could go through we decided to mount our PSU with

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

00:01:54.119 --> 00:02:00.600
help there but anyways over on the right hand side we have a smaller mesh panel

00:01:58.479 --> 00:02:04.360
with incidental airf flow and yet again we see a bit more breathable mesh for

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:08.479
the intake of the case just along the front bezel the back of the case is

00:02:06.360 --> 00:02:13.920
pretty simple revealing the cutout for an internally mounted power supply an IO

00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:18.640
shield and a little tiny bit air flow meshing just above the externally

00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:21.640
secured addin card slots then we get to the bottom which features four nice

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

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

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

00:02:33.519 --> 00:02:40.720
on the bottom it does make picking it up that much easier which leaves us with

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

00:02:43.080 --> 00:02:50.519
once you remove the outer kind of u-shaped frame you see that the inside

00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:52.319
of the case has well not much to be

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

00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:59.480
out of the way near the top of the case which also features two little indented

00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:03.480
bits where you can easily plug in the SSD these or one cutout where you can

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

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

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

00:03:15.640 --> 00:03:21.120
radiator mount in the front of the case one word of warning with this is be

00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:26.000
careful with the length of your tubing as this can uh cause some issues if you

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

00:03:27.720 --> 00:03:33.159
time getting everything to fit due to the magic of editing you didn't

00:03:31.239 --> 00:03:36.000
necessarily see all of that but it did take us quite a long time to get

00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:40.439
everything to work without any kinked tubing just trust me it was a bit of a

00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:44.040
hassle but worth it considering it worked and in the end we were able to

00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:49.920
fit everything in this tiny tiny little case and that's about it other than you

00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:53.760
know like motherboard standoffs do I sound

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

00:03:55.840 --> 00:04:01.280
that's fine this case actually makes that a good thing with many cases you

00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:05.079
can have someone pick it up and you'll know fairly accurately what they're

00:04:03.519 --> 00:04:10.400
going to put inside of it with this thing not really other than an ITX

00:04:07.760 --> 00:04:14.360
motherboard and a graphics card it's pretty much up in the air do they go

00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:19.120
with the super crazy high-end sleeper like system that lion I did with a Titan

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

00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:26.919
CPU and something like a 750 Ti because it doesn't take a dedicated power slot

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

00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:35.639
theater box it's a cheap case but it looks classy as hell and will suit

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

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

00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:47.880
size it lacks an extensive feature set yet somehow accommodates creativity

00:04:45.919 --> 00:04:51.080
there's a fantastic and unique feeling of really thinking that the component

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

00:04:53.039 --> 00:05:00.160
but then having it fit or finding a way to fairly painlessly make it fit every

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

00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:07.440
similar to this but especially at this price point I think it does make quite a

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

00:05:10.039 --> 00:05:15.560
system for scrapyard Wars which is coming soon but I had to pause for a

00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:19.800
great message from our friends over at Mass drop they have something a bit

00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:24.680
different for you guys today this thing they currently have a drop available for

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:27.080
the Chic smart S1 scooter which is a

00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:31.560
self-balancing two wheed electric scooter and it's rated at 12 M of range

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

00:05:34.880 --> 00:05:40.280
while you won't be breaking any land speed records necessarily or off-roading

00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:44.080
through the hills on this pretty cool thing it's a smooth travel on a smooth

00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:48.360
surface and it's a pretty good conversation starter due to its

00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:51.600
preserved but interesting appearance of course this is available through massop

00:05:50.280 --> 00:05:55.039
which means it's a significantly discounted price thanks to the group by

00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:59.680
model essentially the more people that buy it the more the price goes down to a

00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:03.960
set minimum with its minimum price being just under 30% below MSRP you can check

00:06:02.520 --> 00:06:08.800
out this drop and many others at the link in the description dr.p s/ Linus

00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:12.000
techtips so head over there now if you're interested that link doesn't

00:06:10.479 --> 00:06:15.039
actually give us a kickback or anything but it does let them know that we sent

00:06:13.479 --> 00:06:18.520
you what do you guys think let me know in the comments down below or over on
