BUILDING THE SYSTEM

As always the purpose of this section is not to build a functional system but rather to showcase what you can expect from the case at hand in terms of interior space.

The Silent Base 800 is compatible only with mainboards up to ATX in size so that did “alarm” us about its interior space which although sufficient is not as much as I had hoped.

With enough room however for CPU coolers up to 171mm in height the Silent Base 800 should have no problem housing even the largest one.

By removing the top drive cage you have enough room for the longest graphics cards (up to 400mm long). If you don’t however there’s space for cards up to 290mm long.

There's enough room at the bottom of the tower for even the longest PSU's that is if you don't want to make use of the bottom 120/140mm fan spot.
