Silverstone have introduced a new mATX case:

In white it looks pretty bad imo. Apart from that however it's an interesting concept. Might be flirting with the idea of having a SFF case as the main rig and something along these lines could just be it. Promising, let's see how it turns out.

Woah! That is weird indeed. It could be a decent improvement from the sg03/sg04, but we'll have to wait and see.

There's something about it which I'm loving, cant quite put my finger on it though. It does look a little bit like a mini fridge though from the front, dont you think? The ********* doesn't help it much hahaha.

Looks extremely cramped..

Nico_Joey · 9 Jun 2010 at 19:18

Would really be intrested in that in black, no hope of fitting a h50 though

Da Box 100 on its side with some extra curves anyone?

Wouldn't fancy doing a motherboard change in that one. I'd rather have a more sensible case and less desk space. Lian Li V351 is still my favourite mATX.

I stumbled on these pictures a couple of days ago as well whilst looking for anything new on the tj11, silverstone do seem to be pushing the boat with their layouts as of late.

Same here

Curunen · 26 Aug 2010 at 13:20

I hope they do a black version.

Edit: I don't consider this to be a fortress, more like a new sugo, SG08.

Huddy · 26 Aug 2010 at 15:47

I don't like the way Silverstone are taking the Fortress series. FT02 is almost perfect for an air cooled case, you would have thought they would just tweak it a little and provide better cable management and a little more height. Shame.

Curunen · 11 Jan 2011 at 18:59

Any updates on this? Not found much new info.

Edit: Didn't look hard enough. Black version too http://silverstonetek.com/products/p_contents.php?pno=FT03&area=usa

Any idea if/when ocuk will be getting these in?

Randomface74 · 11 Jan 2011 at 19:00

Looks weird and u can't fit anything in it

/interest

David41 · 11 Jan 2011 at 22:23

Looks like a paper shredder imo. Maybe it'll just take some getting used to.

jmp_78 · 11 Jan 2011 at 22:58

I appreciate that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I happen to think that this case looks awesome. I love the fact that it's unique and that's what would be the major selling point for me.

That aside... will any computer components actually fit into it?!?

Curunen · 11 Jan 2011 at 23:16

^ It's for high performance matx, so yes a lot of stuff can fit. Seems like a nice improvement over all the sugo cases.

jmp_78 · 11 Jan 2011 at 23:22

I'm presuming that I'm allowed to post YouTube links here..? This is a good 'un, answered a lot of my questions anyway!

Looking like a very attractive MATX case for a new-build. That said, I'm kind of a Silverstone Fanboy :rolleyes:

Curunen · 11 Jan 2011 at 23:54

Nice, thanks for posting that video. Hoping it's similarly priced to the sg04.
