Overall, the entire installation for the SilverStone Primera PM01 went well. Not all the motherboard stand offs were installed for an ATX motherboard, so I had to install the rest. At first, I thought this would be simple, but there was no adapter include...
Some might say that it is about time that SilverStone jumped on the wagon, and offered tempered glass and RGB illumination. To us, we do feel that this is true, and the way in which they have done it, and the chassis they chose to do it with, it all just...
The Primera PM01 is a whole new idea for SilverStone. While they have always been leaders and innovators, usually their cases came with such a premium price involved. It tended to keep a lot of their best cases out of the hands of the average buyer. The...

The PM01-RGB joins a growing list of cases that are being revamped with tempered glass and RGB lighting. We're happy to see that SilverStone has addressed our key criticism of not having speed control integrated into its fan hub, as it now allows users to...

I have to admit to really being rather impressed with the SilverStone Primera PM01. It's got all of the good things a Gaming Case needs and none of the bad. First off the Case looks simply amazing with its red illumination and red LED fans, it also of...

Impressive airflow for good cooling, Three illuminated fans at the front plus LEDs in the side that illuminate the window, Supports an enormous graphics card up to 16.5inch/419mm, Support for a 360mm radiator in the top or at the front, Windowed side pane
Space above the motherboard is tight to install a radiator, Front cover is secured by four screws so access to the main air filter is awkward, There is no optical drive bay, Two Molex power connectors required for the fan hub and lights, LED light control
SilverStone Primera PM01 is a mid-tower case that offers you the option of installing a 360mm radiator at the front or in the roof and also packs in an array of LED lighting. As you can see in our video this white model comes with blue LED lighting while...
