Temjin TJ08 Micro-ATX Chassis

Introduction:

     SilverStone offers a wide variety of cases and accessories, ranging from storage and audio devices to fans and PSU's. Today I'm going to be reviewing the SilverStone Temjin 8.

   The Temjin 8 is a small form factor case, meaning anything over a m-atx motherboard will not fit.

   The SST TJ08 consists of an aluminum front bezel and steel side panel with a steel frame and dual 120mm fans for efficient cooling. This should be another fine product from SilverStone.

    The new TJ08 arrived in a brown box with the Silverstone name around the the top and Temjin around the bottom. The box is plain and not flashy like other case boxes, and for some reason I like this concept. What I really like is the softer foam versus the harder Styrofoam used in so many other cases for protection. I see so much broken Styrofoam and damaged cases, and so far no damaged cases that use the softer foam.
