Cooler Master Silencio 550 Chassis Review

The power supply is easily fitted, by sliding into the bottom slot. This is then locked in place with 4 screws. The rubber feet here help to dampen vibrations. We used the quiet Chill Innovation 520W power supply for this particular build.

Installing our Solid State Drive was a straightforward process. The drive is slid into the tray then mounted into position with 4 screws.

With the two side brackets attached, it then slides into place, and locks with a reassuring click.

Cooler Master supply standoffs, with a handy little spacer, which slides over each stand off screw. This means a screwdriver can be used to tighten each into place firmly.

It only took a literally 30 minutes to install the system and we had to remove the rear 120mm fan to use the Antec Kuhler 620 H20 unit as seen in the image above.

  1. That looks great, I like the styling too. shame I just bought a thermaltake armor. this is better 🙁

  2. very very nice indeed. im impressed

  3. Good pics. amazing how they can built these and still make a profit. I like the internal layout. good they are using quality fans too. I have had good success with coolemaster fans.

  4. When is it out ?

  5. Read another review of this today and it seems like a good buy. good design from Cooler Master. THey are getting better, still a ways to go before they reach silverstone or lian li standards.

  6. I like cooler master products. I wish they would bring out a frio style cooler. their cpu range needs updated.

  7. Yeah, thats a nice case. not much to complain about. another fan would be good at front IMHO

  8. I wouldn’t build a high end system in this, the lack of top fan might raise temps. I think the system you built in it was good tho as its a good CPU for work and the graphics card is fine for low res gaming. Not many people buy GTX590’s or HD6990s and those who do dont spend £67 on a case either.

  9. fourth time to get past this capctha crap.

    Good case ! thats all I wanted to say !

  10. I like this more than the silverstone Raven 03 :p
