Everything considered, we are quite impressed with what the Silverstone Precision PS07B has to offer.  The understated black finish will make this model appeal to everyone from home users to gaming enthusiasts.

Build quality is also excellent as we've come to expect from Silverstone and we have no doubts that this case will last most users a very long time.

Silverstone have clearly put a lot of thought into the internal design of the case as it's well suited to a number of purposes.  For those who want to build a compact gaming system, there is enough room for any graphics card currently on the market.

For those who want to build a home server, there are five 3.5″ hard drive bays.  For those who want to build a water cooled system, there is space for a thick 240mm radiator in the front.

We do feel that there are a couple of downsides to the chassis which may put some users off.  First of all, there is no provision whatsoever for tool-less installation which means that we had to use our screwdriver extensively throughout the installation process.  This made the installation process much more time consuming than usual.  This wasn't helped by us having to remove the case roof to install the power supply.

At the end of the day, value for money is going to be the main consideration for most people.  We feel that the retail price of a shade under £60 at Scan is a little pricey compared to the ATX offerings that are out there.  But for those looking for a very compact Micro ATX case, the PS07B is still a great option.

Pros

• Solid build quality.
• Sleek aesthetics.
• Good internal layout.
• Very quiet.

Cons

• No exhaust fan included.
• No provision for tool-less installation.

KitGuru says: A great option for those looking to build a powerful compact system
