SilverStone Fortress FT01 Case Review

"From an aesthetics perspective, the FT01 is a case that just about anyone will like the look of. Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder as case aesthetics are very subjective. None the less, there are no flashy LEDs, stickers or oversize logos anywhere to be found. This case would look right at home on the desk of a hardware enthusiast just as much as it would on the desk of an office worker.

The build quality of the FT01 is near perfect. There are no sharp edges anywhere within this enclosure and the uni-body construction makes it not only a strong case, but removes the need for internal supports within. The black painted interior was a pleasant surprise and the brushed aluminum finish is top-notch just as the side panels have a nice heavy feel to them and lock into place very securely. We were unfortunately disappointed to see that our acrylic window arrived cracked in two places due to over-torqued screws. However, we are able to look past this issue as it is clearly a manufacturer's defect and does not appear to be wide-spread from what we can tell."
