Let's take a look at the racey new Primera. No, it's not a Nissan from the 90s, it's the new case from SilverStone.


SilverStone Primera PM01 Review

A hundred quid for a shiny plastic version of the Phantom.

Honestly man looking at those photos I wouldn't even want to fart within a five mile vicinity without worrying I would leave marks on it.

Ed. And there is more orange peel on that thing than at a half time break in an amateur five a side game.

Yup and it's not glossy nice (like on a proper paint job) but cheap £10 case glossy.

Yeah man even worse

I still remember my Raven. God awful finish that thing had on it.

Damn the exterior looks really cheap and nasty, Looks like an NZXT Phantom knockoff.

The internals look good but the exterior is a big no no for me especially with that gloss look.

For the first time... Tom thank you for this review, really liking the case.

One question though that I didn't quite find an answer to in the review... is an H100i/H100i v2 possible in the roof, in push config?.

Thanks again.

I like the look of the case though I'd want the matt finish, Gary good review, you said to remove the front and top you need to remove screws is that both panels or just the top (thinking cleaning the filter at the front), also is it possible to fit fans in the roof panel space.

AIO inside - fans outside but under the top panel still.

Nice review Gary, stock aesthetics aside I do quite like this chassis and with a little elbow grease and some satin black paint it could be a winner.

The white 1 look nice, I must admit

So in pull config I take it?...

Well you can set it how you want but only one way is right. lol

has it been vacumetalised?

I would imagine so yes. When you make something black that's as shiny as that you are really walking a tightrope.
