INTRODUCTION

   It's no secret that the market is currently divided in three different consumer factions the ones who only care about how their systems and peripherals look, the ones who only want to get their hands on the highest performance components and peripherals and finally the ones who place price above all else. Naturally some of the well-established manufacturers do their best to release products that cater to the needs of both people who are looking for top notch performance and unique appearance and although that's not always easy to accomplish the market today is actually filled with such products. SilverStone is among those manufacturers and their recently released Primera PM01 (SST-PM01BR-W) computer case which we have here with us today is one such product.

   Founded in 2003, SilverStone is an established leader in its field, with an elite team of engineers; we started our quest of providing products that create inspirations. We have since expanded the lines of products as well as types of products we produce, giving our customers a wide selection of choices.

Providing leisure with integration of advanced technologies that is functional and making them enjoyable to use. Here at SilverStone Technology, we continue to pride ourselves in providing the highest level of standards in designing and manufacturing computer enclosures, power supplies, and accessories. Our pursuit for the first class aesthetic appeal is relentless; our teams of devoted engineers are constantly searching for the best technologies that suit end-users with different needs and will make our products as technologically sound as they are beautiful.

   The SilverStone Primera PM01 (available in black, matte black, titanium and white colors - as seen from the above picture) is yet another aluminum/plastic mid-tower computer case compatible with ATX and micro-ATX sized mainboards so although it has plenty of room inside for even the largest components if you're looking for an E-ATX or XL-ATX compatible tower you will have to look elsewhere. Going back to interior space the Primera PM01 has 7 PCI expansion slots and enough room for up to 5 drives (3x2.5/3.5" and 2x2.5"), 180mm tall CPU coolers, 419mm long graphics cards, 240mm long power supply units, 7 fans (7x120mm or 6x140mm) and/or two 240/280/360mm radiators. What really stands out however are the several LEDs (red for the dark color models and blue for the white one) this particular PC case has not only thanks to many built-in LED strips and several single LEDs placed all over but also thanks to three pre-installed 140mm LED intake fans located at the front. Time to take a closer look and see where the latest Primera PM01 computer case stands in a market filled with similar offerings.
