Introduction:
Sundial micro has kindly sent us the Silverstone SST-TJ05 case for review. The SST-TJ05 Temjin is quite a sight with its automotive high-gloss finish and extra-deep design for dual-processor motherboards. All of you dual opteron fanatics can rejoice, as this case should be big enough to accommodate those boards.
Just a quick look at the case and its specifications tells a lot about the intended purpose and usefulness of this design. This is a very large case that is not only tall, but also long. The front panel and fascia is made of milled aluminum while the rest of the case is steel. The internal structure is a completely tool-less design that screams of good cooling and airflow. The official specifications are listed below:
