When it comes to aluminium cases, two names automatically come to mind, Lian-Li and Silverstone. Both these companies produce high quality cases for those who value superior design. Phoronix has just reviewed Silverstone’s top of the line Temjin TJ10 case.

Let’s see what they had to say:

“When initially thinking about the TJ10 improvements compared to the TJ09 it led us to wonder if SilverStone Technology should have just named it the TJ09 v2.0. Eventually we decided it was appropriate for SilverStone to name it the TJ10 due to the subtle but valuable improvements such as the aluminum front panel door, extended graphics cardholder and perfecting other areas of this chassis design. These improvements aren't enough to make TJ09 owners upgrade to the TJ10 immediately, but the SilverStone Temjin TJ09/TJ10 design still remains one of the best tower cases we have seen to date. If you are building a new system, the TJ10 is more desirable than the TJ09 unless you are looking to save a few bucks now that the TJ09 prices will likely be cut.”


While many shudder at the idea of a $320USD case, there is evidently a market for such high-end products. Featuring a sleek all-aluminium design, huge work area, and impressive number of internal drive bays, this case will surely not disappoint those who can afford it. Also, with the fully slotted back, bottom vents, side vent, and strategic placement of internal 120MM fan slots, Silverstone has definitely given a lot of consideration to cooling.
