A Detailed Look – From the Outside
Right out of the box you know the SilverStone TJ08-E is special. The overall build quality is excellent and the black, brushed aluminum front panel is impressive. The clean lines, sleek rounded edges and elegant styling are sure to appeal to a large enthusiast market. Overall the steel chassis is sturdy and light weight. The entire enclosure, inside and out is painted with a scratch-resistant black matt finish.
Both side panels are removable and secured with two thumb screws. The top is also removable (6 screws) which is a feature I really like. I frequently find myself drilling out rivets and tapping new machine screw holes to make a top removable; but none of that is necessary with the TJ08-E!
The front of the TJ08-E enclosure contains openings for two external 5.25” drive bays on top and one external 3.5" bay on the bottom. If you don’t need an external 3.5" device (like a universal card reader) you can put an internal 2.5" or 3.5" drive inside. Behind the grill is the two-speed Air Penetrator 180mm intake fan with a pull-out dust filter. Located in the middle is the I/O panel.

The High-Low speed switch for the cooling fan is located around on the right side panel beside the Power On button.
The top panel contains a large grille opening towards the back over the power supply compartment, which is fitted with an easily removable magnetic dust filter. This opening should line up perfectly with the power supplies top mounted intake fan (120~140mm) and provides fresh outside air directly to the power supply.
Medium gauge steel. Nice
Medium gauge steel. Nice paint job inside and out. Case access is the opposite of any case I have ever seen before. Opposite panel opens. Neither good nor bad. Top filter for power supply fan is held in place by magnets, and sits slightly above the sheet metal of the case. Too me this appears to be about a sixty dollar case. Different brands have about the same quality for considerably less money than what this sells for.

Question: With this case
Question: With this case could a Corsair CWCH60 Liquid CPU Cooler be used? I am thinking of removing the drive cage and just have one SSD drive. Also a GTX570 graphics card.
Would I have enough ventilation?
If you look at the video here
If you look at the video here at 6:40 (sorry only in swedish, but you can see the layout) they use corsair H60 liquid cooler. Seems to fit perfectly!

Yes, it appears both the GTX570 and the Corsair CWCH60 (uses the rear 120mm fan location for mounting) should work in this case. And yes, you will have plenty of airflow-ventilation.
I am seriously considering
I am seriously considering ordering this case and have two questions.
* Re. The Rear fan: Is it able to be fitted in addition to the CPU Cooler fan so that both fans are drawing air rearwards ?
** Re. The Power supply: The Silverstone Website/Manual suggests to orient the fan downwards… Is it considered better to have it facing upwards ? It would be interesting to see the different temperature readings.
Remember: with so many shows
Remember: with so many shows on the air all competing for audience attention they’re all looking for a
new and different angle. Try to use large bags; it will be easier to cut smaller shapes out
of larger pieces than add two pieces together.
The unique design of the Beetle caught the attention of millions of people of different age groups all across the Western countries and continued its successful run through decades.
