now to learn more The Fortress F5 is the

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:34,680
more expensive smaller and more refined little brother to the raven

7
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:36,840
rv5 a similar Case by Silverstone it

8
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:41,440
first shows us this refined Style with its front panel a very sleek and clean

9
00:00:39,239 --> 00:00:45,480
looking metal finish accented only by a reflective strip along the bottom which

10
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:49,719
has an illuminated Silverstone logo behind it and the slot loing optical

11
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:54,320
drive bay on the right hand side the left side panel is a plain Metal finish

12
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:58,399
with a relatively small window cutout and that same reflective strip along the

13
00:00:56,239 --> 00:01:01,920
bottom just without the Silverstone logo this time my only gripe with this

14
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:05,880
particular panel is that I would have liked to see the window shifted up a

15
00:01:03,719 --> 00:01:09,439
little bit this would have pulled the expansion cards and a little bit more of

16
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:14,520
the motherboard into view and done a better job of hiding the cable clutter

17
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:18,360
at the bottom also the right side panel is more or less the same as this left

18
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:22,520
side panel just without the window cutout at the front of the top of the

19
00:01:20,759 --> 00:01:27,439
case we have a set of solid and satisfying power and reset buttons which

20
00:01:25,079 --> 00:01:32,720
are on either side of a flip cover which hides the audio headers dual USB 3.0

21
00:01:30,079 --> 00:01:38,079
ports and two fan switches which have high medium and low settings despite

22
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:42,759
only being labeled for high and low behind the top IO we have more top IO

23
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:46,920
because of how the motherboard is oriented once you slide the protective

24
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:50,840
Grill back and lift it off of the case you're able to access all of your

25
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:54,079
motherboard and expansion card IO along with the power in for your power supply

26
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:57,880
unit all the cables that you would need to run to the top of your case because

27
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:01,719
of how the io is laid out are managed through a sizable port hole in the back

28
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:05,680
of the Tower below this Cable Management hole is the grill and removable fan

29
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:09,479
filter for your power supply and while I do really appreciate removable fan

30
00:02:07,399 --> 00:02:13,760
filters this one can be a little bit frustrating to remove as it doesn't have

31
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:18,800
anything to grab onto and it is set into the case I would have appreciated if

32
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:22,000
they had the fan filter do a slide in mechanism through the top of the case

33
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:26,280
instead which is actually what I thought they intended when I first saw it but

34
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:31,200
it's not and for the last stop on our tour of the outside of the F5 is the

35
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:35,160
underside which is going to be fantastic for anyone who intends to keep their

36
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:40,080
computer on a carpeted surface to explain this the bottom of the tower is

37
00:02:36,959 --> 00:02:41,800
completely flat and solid made of metal

38
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:46,200
and just has four little miniature rubber feet allowing for extremely

39
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:49,959
limited air flow and largely removes gross dust and particle pickup which

40
00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:54,239
would be expected from a c computer with a bottom intake which is placed on a

41
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:58,159
carpeted surface but to allow for pretty much any air flow at all there's a

42
00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:03,440
fairly sizable Gap built into the bottom which allows the two large large 180 mm

43
00:03:01,239 --> 00:03:07,680
air penetrator fans to breathe quite deeply through their removable fan

44
00:03:05,159 --> 00:03:12,080
filter which is also tucked in neatly under the bottom of the case Silverstone

45
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:15,519
notes in their very detailed manual that you can remove the filter by simply

46
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:19,840
pulling it to the side but this doesn't seem entirely possible due to a plastic

47
00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:23,680
lip which actually helps keep the filter in place I would alternatively suggest

48
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:27,599
that you just place your hands on both sides of the case and pry down on the

49
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:31,599
fan filter with your fingers pulling it directly off instead of attempting to

50
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:34,959
slide off the doors on this case are quite unconventional to open them you

51
00:03:33,439 --> 00:03:38,720
will need to venture back up to the top of the case reaching under the lip of

52
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:43,319
the side panel and you will find a hidden switch in one fluid motion you

53
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:47,560
can both press the switch and pull up the side panel freeing it from the case

54
00:03:45,599 --> 00:03:51,959
quite elegant overall I would like to note but please also note that you will

55
00:03:50,319 --> 00:03:55,519
need to press the switch down when installing the doors instead of just

56
00:03:53,519 --> 00:03:58,879
pressing on them to get them back into position please don't break that little

57
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:03,519
switch another thing I noticed when removing the doors was the shape of the

58
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:07,760
support structure for said doors it lends itself to the function of being a

59
00:04:05,519 --> 00:04:11,959
handle as well now I didn't find this feature noted anywhere in their manual

60
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:16,040
but they seem very solid and easy to grab hold of so I decided to ogre test

61
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:20,560
it they passed with flying colors luckily enough so you heard it here

62
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:23,840
first the f25 also happens to feature handles once you enter the main

63
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:28,040
compartment you'll be able to see exactly how those large 180 mm fans in

64
00:04:26,479 --> 00:04:31,360
the bottom will be able to cool your various components because of this this

65
00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:35,639
awesome cooling setup we decided to install an air cooler and not bother

66
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:40,120
with its fans as set included fans will be able to take care of it already which

67
00:04:37,919 --> 00:04:43,759
results in a quiet and quite cool looking setup but if you want to install

68
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:49,240
a liquid cooler you would be able to fit the radiator either in the 120 mm Grill

69
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:55,600
slot above the CPU socket or you could remove the dual 180 mm fans in the

70
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:59,360
bottom and install up to a 2X 140 mm

71
00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:01,240
radiator or a 3x0 MM Radiator in that

72
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:04,960
bottom placement on the left hand side we have a squeeze Mount hard drive cage

73
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:08,919
which is quite easy to use and holds the hard drives quite securely while

74
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:12,880
allowing for a securing screw if you're worried about them at all above the cage

75
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:17,880
is a vertically installed power supply it is recommended to install a power

76
00:05:14,479 --> 00:05:19,800
supply no longer than 160 mm here but if

77
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:24,479
you did need more space for a longer power supply you could remove the hard

78
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:30,360
drive cage below allowing essentially any consumer power supply to fit just

79
00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:33,720
fine this Tower allows for up to 34 14.2

80
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:36,039
mm long graphics cards and 162 mm tall

81
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:39,199
CPU coolers the CPU Cooler spec does seem a little bit conservative though

82
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:44,400
but that kind of makes sense cuz Silverstone probably doesn't want your cooler pressed up against the window

83
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:48,199
which is definitely understandable that brings us to the inside view of the

84
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:52,440
Silverstone logo from the front of the case which I would have really liked to

85
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:56,600
see in black plastic instead of white as it is visible from the outside through

86
00:05:54,400 --> 00:06:01,160
the window and sticks out like a sore thumb the wires also don't help with

87
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:05,000
large unsleeved sections close to that white panel behind the motherboard tray

88
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:08,599
there are two well-placed and easy to use SSD mounting spots and the

89
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:12,080
installation housing for the Slimline optical drive that we noticed on the

90
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:17,319
front of the case the cable management options back here are quite limited

91
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:21,560
however with only a couple zap straps Hooks and no default runs it can get a

92
00:06:19,599 --> 00:06:26,960
little messy and while the motherboard tray is quite solid which feels quite

93
00:06:24,280 --> 00:06:30,000
nice it's also kind of annoying because there's a lot of support structure

94
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:33,800
behind the motherboard which will definitely obstruct your cable runs last

95
00:06:32,479 --> 00:06:38,520
but not least there's the fact there is no rubber grommets to hide the cable

96
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:43,000
mess which is visible through the left side of the case and that side window in

97
00:06:41,319 --> 00:06:47,000
conclusion this is an absolutely beautiful case if you're looking for a

98
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:51,400
refined sleek and elegant look which uses solid metal construction throughout

99
00:06:49,280 --> 00:06:55,039
it will perform quite well it also performs quite well in air cooled

100
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:59,879
environments thanks to that built-in airflow allowance to the Beast 180 mm

101
00:06:57,759 --> 00:07:04,680
air penetrators in the bottom of the case but it does suffer from the cable

102
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:08,759
management department a poorly sleeved power supply and stock wires from the

103
00:07:06,599 --> 00:07:13,360
front IO paired with a complete lack of rubber grommets can hamper the overall

104
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:17,599
look which is greatly disappointing when compared to the extreme attention to

105
00:07:14,919 --> 00:07:21,039
detail given to the rest of the tower speaking of attention to detail our

106
00:07:19,199 --> 00:07:24,680
friends over at chiro have a fantastic new product that they would like us to

107
00:07:22,319 --> 00:07:29,080
show off today well technically it's a series of new products that they have

108
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:34,639
titled their flavors lineup these are an adaptation of their wildly popular Dan

109
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:38,639
bort 10,400 Mah portable battery bank

110
00:07:34,639 --> 00:07:40,199
that we showcased in this video not sure

111
00:07:38,639 --> 00:07:45,159
where they're going to put that they have seven new flavors for any type of

112
00:07:42,639 --> 00:07:49,879
taste chocolate vanilla banana vent matcha which is Brandon's favorite

113
00:07:47,479 --> 00:07:54,639
strawberry which is lion's favorite I'm sure you can see why it's freaking pink

114
00:07:52,479 --> 00:07:59,199
and pumpkin hm that's pretty cool that they're releasing a pumpkin one so close

115
00:07:56,199 --> 00:08:00,840
to Halloween eh yes it is and chiro

116
00:07:59,199 --> 00:08:04,800
thinks so too so they're offering a special deal on their pumpkin flavor in

117
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:09,720
the celebration of Halloween from October 31st to November 2nd the pumpkin

118
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:16,319
flavor will be available through Amazon for $29.99 on the first 50 units that's

119
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:18,319
ridiculous and $39.99 for every unit

120
00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:21,759
after that which is still fairly ridiculous you can check out their whole

121
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:26,520
flavors lineup in the link in the video description and I want you guys to let

122
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:30,360
us know in the comments do you have any kind of choice like which which one is

123
00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:33,760
your favorite color does it even really matter to you I'm sure they'd love to

124
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,919
hear what you have to say so let us know in the comments down below also in the

125
00:08:35,519 --> 00:08:42,320
comments down below let me know what you thought of the F5 if you don't like commenting below

126
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,080
videos and you don't like YouTube comments you can jump over to the Forum

127
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:51,120
if you don't like the ads while you're there you can become an awesome subscriber person

128
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:56,000
yeah that's how awesome and get rid of all the ads on the Forum and jump back

129
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:59,240
to YouTube and subscribe because we make cool videos and stuff also like and

130
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:04,920
dislike depending on which color you like that's doesn't make any sense but

131
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:08,920
do it anyways and I'll see you guys next

132
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,920
time yeah
