The Raven RV05 appears to be an attempt from SilverStone to develop a case not plagued by the issues that the previous models of the series had. By rotating the motherboard tray, the length of the case had to be significantly increased, leading to overly...
I've been fond of SilverStone's Raven line-up going back to the original Raven RV01 and have reviewed many of the Raven products but find the RV05 perhaps most interesting since it does away with the 5.25-inch drive bays of the ATX chassis. Linux users es...
Great Styling, Solid Construction, Heavy Gauge Side Panels, Dual 180mm Air Penetrator Fans, RPM Switch, Slim Slot Optical Option, Larger Opening for Cables
Limited space for watercooling gear, No external 5.25” drive bays, Seven expansion slots, Small PSU requirement
The landscape of the modern PC chassis has changed over the years and in looking back at a time ruled by simple beige boxes we have come a long way. Many of these original designs lacked adequate cooling and often came with power supplies designed specifi...

Low price for a Raven-branded case. Massive bottom-mounted fans make for excellent, quiet cooling. Supports multiple large graphics cards.

PC builders seeking quiet air cooling and room for large graphics cards, and not intimidated by a unique PC-building experience, will find a lot to like in the Raven RV05 tower chassis. Just don't expect to drop in lots of drives or a standard optical dr...

The SilverStone Raven RV05 is a fantastic chassis that requires a bit of planning and careful component selection but offers some of the best air cooling on the planet, bar none. The case has a few minor drawbacks but none that are deal breakers and all c...
Abstract: Like the original SilverStone RV01, the latest Raven case has the 90 motherboard mounting system. It's because of that the SilverStone Raven RV05 Case stands out. This design not only looks different, but it excels at cooling and optimizes space. This is ...

It's fair to say Silverstone don't run with the pack when it comes to the internal layout of a PC. We guess we ought at least to be grateful that they don't make cars, for if they applied the same alternate lateral thinking they'd probably have the drivi...
After I spent several hours, disassembling, assembling, reviewing and later testing the case, I believe it is time to express my thoughts regarding the product. SilverStone RV05 performance – Raven RV05 as part of the very well known worldwide Raven serie...
