CoolerMaster Silencio 352 Review

 

Up Close:  Exterior Overview and Roof

Measuring just 200 x 378 x 453mm (WxHxD) the 352 is a petite little thing especially when compared to the more fuller frame of the Prodigy for example, being smaller than the Prodigy in every respect other than depth.               

     

 

The classy lines of the Silencio series can clearly be seen, with there being little doubt that this case is not intended for the “balls out” gaming sector of the market, but that’s not to say you’re not going to be able to get a powerful rig in there.  The lines are simple and clean with un-windowed side panels and a full length door on the front.

    

 

There are slight bulges in each of the side panels, in part we think to aid rigidity, but also perhaps to provide a little more cable management room of the right hand side.

    

 

The roof of the 352 has a  smooth plastic removable cover overlaying a filtered mesh grill which is fitted for a 120mm fan.  Held in place by magnets the cover can be easily popped off enabling improved cooling at the expense of an increase to the sonic signature.
