CONCLUSION

   The Redline RL05 was a good mid-tower with plenty of interior space and several features but lacked what it needed in terms of design to become a hit among consumers on a tight budget. The new RL06 PRO improves on pretty much everything compared to the RL05 (everything but interior space) so it could actually have a much more successful run than its predecessor. Of course i do expect the more demanding consumers to go for the larger Primera PM01 instead but still with enough room for ATX sized mainboards, 5 drives, 6 fans and/or two 240mm radiators, 158mm tall CPU coolers, 348mm long graphics cards and 200mm long power supply units the RL06 PRO is not what we’d call small. On top of that add the 4 pre-installed 120mm fans and there’s not much more anyone could ask from a budget gaming tower.

   As i type these lines the SilverStone Redline RL06 PRO retails for just USD69.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 82Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk) a price which puts it between several similar towers. At the end of the day we’re not saying that the Redline RL06 PRO is perfect cause it’s not but it combines looks with a good amount of features and plenty of interior space (for its size) without breaking the bank and because of that it gets our Golden Award.
