SilverStone PT13 Ultra Compact Mini-ITX Thin Chassis Review
Peter Donnell / 10 years ago
Exterior
The chassis benefits from a stunning brushed aluminium top and front panel that give a nice premium and professional look to the exterior. There is loads of ventilation across the top panel as well as a white Silverstone logo at the back. The front panel features a large power switch with integrated power LED and a small reset button next to it. On the right side you’ll find two USB 2.0 ports.
The right side of the chassis features yet more ventilation, and a small screw that is used to mount to top panel hinge should you need to fully dismantle the case (unlikely).
The left side is much the same as the right, loads of ventilation and another screw for the top panel hinge.
The top panel is held shut using a pair of thumb screws at the back, below which you’ll find a slim opening for the motherboard I/O and two break-off covers for the optional antenna cable pass-through for those using motherboards with built in wi-fi.
On the underside of the case are four screw holes, these are used for mounting the optional VESA brackets.
Here you can see the chassis sitting on the vertical mount, perfect for desktop use or as a part of a home entertainment setup.
