In 2005, SilverStone created the Temjin TJ07, a tower chassis with unprecedented unibody construction and compartmentalized layout for an almost limitless liquid cooling configuration. Then in 2006, the Temjin TJ09 was released with classic styling and a see-through air duct designed for cooling. In 2008, they created the first retail computer chassis to implement 90 degree motherboard mounting with the RAVEN RV01, a new design which tried to balance air cooling performance and quietness.

SilverStone engineers aim to create another first-class, no-holds-barred chassis with the Temjin TJ11. The TJ11 incorporates some great features from past SilverStone products along with new designs, such as the “Air Penetrator” fans, to help achieve this goal. In addition, there are plenty of ergonomic touches, such as quick access filters, hot-swappable hard drive bays, removable motherboard tray, CPU back plate cutout, and optimized cable routing paths to keep your system running as efficiently as possible.

For hardcore enthusiasts, the all-aluminum TJ11 was specifically designed to be easy to work with, as the entire chassis is free of rivets, so everything can be taken apart. It also has a larger “downstairs” compartment than the TJ07, built to house the largest 4x140mm radiators available on the market.

The potential and the flexibility of TJ11 should be unrivaled in today’s marketplace. However, we will be tossing the TJ11 on our test bench to find out just how good Silverstone did in the creation of the TJ11. Let’s see how it stands up to these lofty expectations, shall we?
