  • Finition, Architecture efficace, Ventilation efficace, montage aisé
  • Ventilation bruyante
  • Ce boitier atypique de Silverstone, ne nous laisse pas indifférent encore une fois. Nous noterons tout d'abord l'excellente finition de l'ensemble, comme toujours chez la marque. Ensuite, nous apprécions encore et toujours cette architecture si particuliè...

  • Ce RV05 est un bon boitier, ça on ne peut pas dire le contraire, cependant à notre gout il souffre de quelques imperfections comme par exemple l'obligation de jouer du tourne-vis pour le montage, le fait qu'il n'y ait que 2 connecteurs USB3 sans doubl...

  • Le Raven revient dans sa 5ème version et force est de constater qu'il ne corrige pas certains défauts de l'édition précédente. On commence bien évidemment par évoquer le bruit de fonctionnement à pleine vitesse. Les Penetrator appréciés par Silverstone so...

  • Design accattivante, Materiali di buona qualità, Ottimo cable management, Efficiente sistema di raffreddamento
  • Incompatibilità con dissipatori per CPU e alimentatori di grosse dimensioni, Connessioni esterne ridotte all'osso
  • SilverStone riesce a cogliere nel segno, dando vita ad un case compatto in grado di migliorare ulteriormente i precedenti modelli della serie RAVEN, grazie ad un'incredibile ottimizzazione degli spazi e del layout interno. Il design del nuovo RV05, senza...

  • keine Staubfilter für das Top, nur Platz für ein SlotinLaufwerk, Einbau der Komponenten insgesamt etwas umständlich
  • Das SilverStone Raven RV05 besitzt mit dem um 90 Grad gedrehten Mainboard ein Alleinstellungsmerkmal, welches seinen Reiz hat und uns grundsätzlich überzeugen kann. Um die Abmessungen des Gehäuses nicht zu vergrößern, muss man aber damit leben, dass nur...

  • Lüftersteuerung, Gute Verarbeitungsqualität, Ungewöhnlicher Innenraumaufbau, Nutzerfreundlicher Bodenstaubfilter, Ausgeklügelte Verschlüsse der Seitenteile
  • Schrauben splittern, Gewinde überlackiert, Mäßiges Kabelmanagement, Keine Festplattenentkopplung, Keine Auswurftaste für Slimline-Laufwerk, Seitenfenster zerkratzt, da beim Transport gelöst
  • Das SilverStone Raven RV05 hat in der Redaktion für viele Höhen und Tiefen gesorgt. Zu den Höhen gehören das aufgefrischte Design und die sehr gute sowie massive Verarbeitungsqualität, die SilverStone schon seit Jahren konstant bietet. Gut umgesetzt...

  • hohe Kühlleistung, Lüfter dreistufig regelbar, Staubfilter vor Lufteinlässen, I/O-Panel mit USB 3.0, effektive Raumnutzung, überdurchschnittliche Materialstärke
  • etwas erschwerte Montage/Nutzung, Innenraum beengt, lange Netzteile nur bei ausgebautem 3,5-Zoll-Käfig nutzbar, kein regulärer 5,25-Zoll-Laufwerksplatz, Kabelmanagement nur eingeschränkt möglich, keine Festplattenentkopplung,
  • Mit dem Raven RV05 wollte SilverStone die ohnehin hohe Luftkühlleistung der Serie weiter optimieren. Obwohl auch in diesem Gehäuse nur zwei Lüfter (allerdings stattliche 180-mm-Exemplare) verbaut werden, glänzt es mit beispielhaft niedrigen Temperaturen...
