MODTHEBOX would like to thank Tony from SilverStone Technology
for sending the SilverStone SST-TJ02 Glacier Mid-Tower Case for review.
Introduction:
A few years ago a regular standard steel based case was the norm amongst computer enthusiasts for the simple
functionality provided for installing a complete computer system. As more individuals experimented with different
computer configuration options, many realized that existing cases were inadequate for normal day to day operation.
Case manufacturers were very quick to adapt and began to release a wide array of different styles and sizes using
the properties of standard steel and aluminum. SilverStone Technology is a relatively new player in the case
manufacturing market and has capitalized on the consumer market by developing several unique chassis designs that
cater to budget, home theatre and high-end PC's. The company has recently released its series of budget style
cases marketed under the Temjin Series brand name. Today in the MTB Labs, we will be evaluating the SilverStone
SST-TJ02 Glacier Mid-Tower Case.
Specifications:
The SilverStone SST-TJ02 Glacier Mid-Tower Case is one of several different units available on the SilverStone
Technology website. Consumers have the option of selecting from two different colour formats (black and silver)
as well as two different model designs. The SilverStone SST-TJ02 Glacier Mid-Tower Case comes pre-assembled and
supports mATX and Full ATX motherboard formats. Here are some specifications taken directly from the SilverStone
Technology website:
