Cooler Master Silencio 352 mATX Mini Tower Review

Interior

The chassis interior is finished in a powder black, with black fittings that look great, even though there is no side panel window its nice to see a clean finish on the interior. There is a good size CPU cooler mounting cut-out, two of the stand-offs have been pre-installed (not sure why only two). There are two small vertical cable routing holes on the right and a 3/4 width horizontal cut away at the bottom for routing cables.

THE PSU mount features four rubber feet, perfect for keeping it secure and this should also help reduce vibrations from the PSU.

The front panel features a single fan and with the HDD bays in their current configuration you could easily fit another 120mm fan below the pre-installed one. the HDD bay allows for 3 x 3.5″ drives, and various mounting holes allow for 4 x 2.5″ drives on the motherboard mounting plate, the base of the chassis and the underside of the top 3.5″ bay (hanging below the single 5.25″ bay).

The rear 120mm exhaust fan is identical to the front fan, both come with  a 3pin connection and a 3pin to molex adaptor.

Around the back we see loads of cable tie down loops, these will be extremely handy for maintaining good cable management.

Here you can see the thick padding of the side panels, more than enough for a chassis of this size.
