Wow, I'm quite surprised that I am the first one to review this monitor. I probably won't be able to get all technical with this review, but I would like to write out what makes this a great...
I remember the first time I set my eyes on the Silverstone TJ07. It was like looking A PC Tower that screamed quality and versatility! The case is very light, unlike other full tower cases. Thumbs...
I had this case for a good while and it was such a joy. Everyone that saw my computer called it "The Tank" because they loved the beefy looks of it. I found the case to be very easy to work with...
the included fans are not PWM unless you got the Free PWM adapter off the Phanteks site.
I never plugged in the stock fans I wanted more bling and higher CFM. I really have no idea if they make noise, but the rated db is pretty low for 140mm fans and quieter then the fans I bought and I cant hear those at all, it would have to be really loud to hear over my GPUs
well, a lot of people who bought it said the fans made a pretty loud and annoying clicking noise. So the seem to be a bit hit or miss.
No clicking noise here

Mine came with the PWM adapter in the box. Mine is setup with Qfan and it's very quiet until I start something very intensive like F@h or a stress test. Even then it's not what I would call loud.
Just moved the rig over to a CM storm trooper and upgraded to the Phanteks!
I got the red version, the fans look like they have a pink tint to them, but inside the case you can't tell...This cooler looks so good!
Took the 2600k up to 4.6 GHz and ran it on prime95 for about an hour. Maximum average temperature was 69 C across all cores. Ambient temperature is 24.4 C. Do those temperatures sound about right?
Also, I used MX-4 TIM, but is the Phanteks stuff any good?
4.5ghz 2500K Running IBT 51-53c/ Idles around 34-36c / ambient temps 73f - 22.7c on the Phantek TIM ..why I used it I don't know I have 3 tubes of MX2 sitting here, just wanted to try it I guess

That temp seems abit higher than I'd expect for a 2600k. I have mine in my other rig @ 4.5GHz 1.35v paired with a Hyper 212+ Push/Pull an get roughly those temps with Prime 95.

It could be a quality one though , some include high-quality TIM

that's why I figured I would try it,so far its not to bad of temps and they stay low, never pushed it to far either 4.5ghz @1.30v works for me, next time ill try MX-2
