    News - SilverStone officially unveils Raven RV02 chassis, hitting stores next month

    Smaller, lighter, and higher performing than the first chassis to utilise a 90 degree motherboard mounting, says SilverStone.

    I was looking at the first one and this does look like an improvement, at least with the extra 18cm fan.

    But if it's gotten smaller..... where does the PSU go? Judging from the back panel placement and mesh, I assume it goes facing the back panel you see in the first pic.

    Will be an interesting call between this and the original, and the FT02, http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=18719 which confirms the PSU placement issue.

    EDIT: Actually on reflection it looks pretty roomy, but I prefer the styling on the RV01.

    When the first Raven was released I was impressed by the concept but frankly disapointed by the styling, same again for this version.

    However Silverstone also have the Fortress2 on the horizon which features much the same internal arrangement but much more minimalistic, classy looks.
    Life is like a hair on a toilet seat. Sooner or later you're bound to get pissed off!

    Very interesting and I wonder how a water kit would look in this.... Very interesting indeed. Three intake fans and not obstructing the front, genius work...
