SilverStone Sugo SG09

Building a system around the SilverStone SG09 was fairly straightforward and easy. It was a bit of a surprise seeing the two screws accompanying the thumb-screws for the removal of the side panels, but not an issue and just takes a few more seconds than normal for gaining access to the inside of the system, should you be swapping out components frequently. Overall though no issues were encountered at all in the build.

An AMD FX-8150 Eight-Core "Bulldozer" CPU was used in conjunction with a MSI Micro-ATX motherboard for this build while using an Arctic Cooling CPU heatsink, 4GB of RAM, and integrated graphics. Any graphics card should fit just fine within this case and the claims were tested during the build process, but for the focus of this system ultimately, no discrete graphics were needed. A 500GB Western Digital SATA HDD was also used in this build.

Having very good experience with the SilverStone Strider power supplies, and still the previously-reviewed SilverStone PSUs running great in other systems, I picked up a SilverStone Strider 400W (SST-ST40F-ES) power supply for this build, which fits within the SFF chassis easily.
