OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Build the ultimate gaming rig with the RAVEN RV02-BW by SilverStone. This full-tower case can accommodate Micro ATX and ATX motherboards. Equip your case with all of the front panel peripherals your system needs, like LCD displays, fan controls and more with five 5.25-inch drive bays. You’ll also be able bulk-up your storage to install all of your games with three 3.5-inch drive bays. The RV02-BW also features eight expansion slots for triple video card installations.

The Raven innovates with its left panel mounting and 90-degree orientation. Heat is no longer vented out the rear of the case, but rather upward where heat is most likely to go. Three bottom-mounted 180mm fans draw fresh air from under the case, cooling your system while the top panel 120mm fan and vented expansion slots release the heat.

Other features include a motherboard back plate opening for convenient CPU heatsink installation. The 3.5-inch bays also feature an updated drive suspension system to minimize drive vibrations when the HDDs spin up. You can also take your system to the limit with water cooling and take advantage of the radiator mounting. Build your gaming system with the Lancool RV02-BW and crush the competition in style!

Innovative case

white Reviewed By: itdood on 9/30/2009
Rating + 4
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Innovative cooling design. I like the mobo rotation. Sleek design. Quality materials. 3 x 180 mm fans w/ filters. Very quiet case, even with 180s on high. Hard drive rubber grommet mounts, less noise. Window for the side, I didn't think I'd like this but my kids will stare into it like it's a sponge-bob episode :-). The mobo port plate fit perfectly. Overall build looks very clean. Overall case is high quality. PCI/PCIe slots lined up well for my asus p6t, the entire mobo fit perfectly including the port face plate.
Cons: Hard drive cage only holds 3 drives. Difficult to remove 5.25" front panels, took me a bit of wrangling to figure out. The 5.25" tool-less lock down is rather odd, they're only on one side, I still used screws on the other side to be sure. I also had trouble releasing one of these lock downs to remove a CD-rom drive, it would not release, took me a while to work it free. The velcro strap for the PSU hold down was also rather odd, I didn't use it. Top fan PSU does not line up completely with the external grill though I think this impact is minimal. No front facing eSata or firewire ports(however, this adds to the case's sleek and clean design, so might be a pro).
Other Thoughts: Overall I really like this case and would use it again. It's an eye catcher, people are drawn to it. I'm happy because it's eye candy and also very functional. I totally get the cooling concepts, it's designed to flow cool air from bottom to the top, which make thermodynamic sense. I have no way of comparing this, but I do know that my i7 920 and mobo and vid are running very cool and I've had no overheating problems at all.

Very Good Case

white Reviewed By: Kevin on 1/22/2010
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day
Pros: There a lots of great things about this case. First, it's huge so you will have plenty of room to work. The cable management is fantastic as well. I was able to run all my cables so the fans at the bottom were not blocked at all. The case has air filters on the bottom. It also has more intake fans than outake fans. This keeps a higher air pressure inside the case so dust can't even slip in through the cracks. I found the 5.25 locking system to be adequate - once they were locked there was no movement at all. Finally, the case makes very little noise, even with the fans on high.
Cons: The case is very long. Depending on the layout of your motherboard, some of the cables might not reach. One of my friends had this issue with the Power Switch, LED, Reset Swtich, etc. You should pay close attention to any connections that might end up at the very back of the case. You may need extension cables.

Additonally, this case only holds 3 hard drives. This could be a major limitation for some people. I also think they could have added a few more ports to the front. At least, I miss having a Firewire port on the front as well.
Other Thoughts: I actually bought the case for it's air flow system. My old case had loads of air flow, but there were no filters. In my case, dust became a major problem to the point that I was concerned about my hardware failing. In terms of airflow and dust management, I don't think you'll find anything on the market much better than this. The only case which I would have liked better was the Silverstone FT02, but you'll need to save a lot more for that one.

Great Case

white Reviewed By: MightyDathin on 2/8/2010
Rating + 4
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This case has plenty of space and the 90 degree turn does wonders for heat disipation.

Solid construction with great inovative features.
Cons: I wish it where like an inch wider, this would make cable managment easier.

LONG, measure you space before you buy this case is deceptivly shaped from the front it looks like a mid tower but don't be fooled it is just a full tower turned on its side dimensionaly wise.

People are complaining about there only being three hard drive bays and they are a pain to get at after install. I only use one large hard drive and I don't need to change it so not really a con for me.
Other Thoughts: There are a lot of complaints in these reviews that could have been completly eliminated if everyone would one would open the manual.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: -Ease of installation
-Positive airflow
-Way lower temps (MB & CPU)
-VERY QUIET! The 180mm fans do a great job
Cons: -Corsair 850 PSU Fits fine, but the fan does not line up with the rear exhaust. No issues, but a bit odd.
-HDD Bracket over removable by removing MB or front panel. A bit of a pain either way.
Other Thoughts: Updated from a CoolerMaster Cosmo 1000 (which I loved) but was a bit hot. This case is fantastic.
