Overall, the entire installation for the SilverStone Primera PM01 went well. Not all the motherboard stand offs were installed for an ATX motherboard, so I had to install the rest. At first, I thought this would be simple, but there was no adapter included to install standoffs.

SilverStone is one of the most renowned and respected brands when it comes to computer cases. Their RAVEN and Temjin series were just some of the popular cases for PC enthusiasts and builders alike.

The Primera PM01 includes a very basic manual, screws, standoffs, and two 3-pin, 2-conductor fan extension cables. The PM01's power LED lead is split to serve both standard and Asus motherboards.

Excellent cooling performance; Excellent cooling to noise ratio; Supports a 3x 140mm radiator in front; 3x 120mm on top; Loaded with LEDs for showoffs; plus a switch to disable them; Premium Finish; Moderate Price

Top-panel radiator installation requires cutting inner panel for coolant lines; No motherboard lead for three-pin fan hub; Power supply shroud and hard drive cage are riveted in place; Single-color lighting

The SilverStone Primera PM01 Desktop Casing is a beautiful and spacious casing, and it retails at RM 399 which is an excellent price for what you're getting, even if you don't intend to use the LED effects.

The finished product is clean and open, and the build process was very simple. There is a lot of empty space to the right of the system components, and open layout enclosures of this type certainly have the capability of supporting any number of liquid-cooling options.
