Compact Micro-ATX Tower
The SilverStone PS16B is a desktop chassis built for micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards. It suits builders who want a small-footprint system without sacrificing room for a full-size graphics card. The case targets enthusiasts assembling a capable workstation or gaming rig in a tidy form factor. It is not aimed at users needing E-ATX board support or multiple expansion slots beyond the standard layout.
Sustained Thermal Headroom
A revised cooling layout accepts front and rear 120mm fans or radiators to move heat steadily during long sessions. The interior clears CPU coolers up to 165mm and graphics cards up to 320mm, letting high-performance parts breathe without throttling. Removable front filter covers keep airflow paths clean over time. Builders planning custom liquid loops larger than 120mm or dual-radiator setups will find the internal volume restrictive.
Practical Build Details
The exterior blends faux brushed aluminium, glossy panels and mesh for a clean aesthetic that fits home or office desks. Drive flexibility includes a 5.25-inch bay, multiple 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch mounts, and front dual USB 3.0 ports for quick peripheral access. The 5.25-inch bay and front I/O panel are removable to simplify cable routing. Systems requiring hot-swap drive trays or tool-less 2.5-inch sleds beyond the standard mounts will need additional accessories.

Questions about this item
How loud does the chassis get when I run front and rear 120mm fans all day?
The case fits standard 120mm fans at the front and rear; noise depends entirely on the fans you install, not on the chassis itself.
Which parts must I already own to complete a build in this Precision Series case?
You need a micro-ATX or Mini-ITX motherboard, an ATX power supply, a CPU cooler no taller than 165mm, and any drives for the 5.25in, 3.5in or 2.5in bays.
Will my existing full-length graphics card fit alongside the drive cages?
The interior clears GPUs up to 320mm long, so most full-size cards fit even with the 5.25in and 3.5in bays populated.
