http://www.smidgenpc.com - Silverstone's Sugo SG02 is a case meant for HTPCs and small general-purpose computers. The Sugo SG02 is a Micro-ATX case, and at $70 dollars it is on the low-to-mid range of prices for this type of computer. The SG02 has stiff competition from cases made by Antec and Raidmax, and this review will rank it against those products.
I've got the SG01, very similar to this.
If you want my advice for a build inside this case.
1. You're going to struggle with cable management if you don't buy at least a partially modular PSU. There really is hardly anywhere good to tidy up cables if you use both drive trays and keep the HDD cage.
2. This has got a stupid vent at the back near the cpu to fit a silverstone crossflow fan. Instead for a high end setup I'd blank those slots, use a tall heatsink and sideways fan.

Hi,
I was just wondering what kind of clearance you get between the CPU and the PSU as I'm trying to find a decent cooler in advance of buying it.
Great review btw, helped me make my mind up!

All this case needs is a better cable management system, and a better way to install and detach the HDDS.
Also with the noise, if you are going to get this for a home theatre, you can simply buy silent brand fans and graphics. Never stay with the stock fans it comes with, spend a few extra dollars and you can have a silent PC.

@AleksNHWarcraft3 You can fit a 4890 in the case. I have the same case myself with a GTX 260 216SP, which is longer than the 4890. However, make sure you get the "F" variant, as in the "SG02B-F" or the "SG02W-F". The non-F variants CANNOT fit higher-end video cards.
