Product Showcase - The finished build
On this page, you’ll find a selection of photos of the finished build inside the Cooler Master Silencio S600. The GPU that we used here has an AIO LCS, and the CPU is cooled (for measurements) either with air (Thermalright True Spirit 120 Direct) or with a liquid cooler placed on the front. For the purpose of this section, the Asus Ryujin 360 was used (radiator placed on the front). Yes, it’s above the specification (which indicates 280 mm max), but I didn’t find it as a surprise, as the internal layout is the same as in the NR600. The motherboard is an ATX form factor one (and looks relatively small in this Cooler Master chassis), based on the Z390 chipset, with a de-lidded i7 8700K @ 4.8 GHz inside. The GPU comes from Aorus, and it’s the Waterforce version (GeForce GTX 1080 Ti). The final result looks better than ok. There were no major issues with installing the components inside. To make as much room as possible, the 5.25” bay has been removed.
The PSU is not mounted using a removable bracket, unlike in quite many other cases today, so it has to be fixed to the back wall of the chassis. That’s not a big issue though, considering the price. If you’re installing a modular PSU, attach your cables first, as once the PSU is installed, access to your modular cable ports is limited. Even though my Seasonic PSU is 160 mm long, installing it wasn’t that easy, and there was a bit of struggle, due to the non-removable HDD cage. Overall, fitting all the cables of the test setup in the case wasn’t difficult, but it’s better to route the EPS power cable before attaching the motherboard to the tray. The white power button lighting on the panel is the only element that stands out during operation.
You won’t see a ton of cables here. The PSU shroud really does its job well (did you notice that there is no logo on it, only an outline?). Now, two shots with the LEDs on.
The only lighting element on the Silencio S600 is the white LED in the shape of the CM logo around the power button.
