SilverStone had a rather difficult job to do when designing the new Raven chassis, because the original Raven was, well, rather original. Putting minor gripes aside, the company has done a pretty good job with the Raven RV-02That's not to say it doesn'...

Overall quality of this case is excellent. There are a few drawbacks like the hard drive cage and some minor cable routing issues, but they were not enough to really detract from this fine piece of hardware. The fit and finish alone rank this high on m...
