SilverStone Sugo SG09 Case Review

Inside the SilverStone Sugo SG09

To open the SG09, you must remove its top cover, which is attached to the chassis using four black thumbscrews and one regular screw. Additionally, you must remove the left panel, which is attached to the chassis with one thumbscrew and another regular screw.

This case supports microATX, Mini-ITX, and Mini-DTX motherboards. The motherboard tray has a huge cutout for you to access the backplate of the CPU cooler without having to remove the motherboard from the case.

The SilverStone Sugo SG09 supports video cards up to 13.3” (334 mm) long. Expansion cards are fastened using regular screws, but at least they are black. The reviewed case supports CPU coolers up to 6.5” (165 mm) tall.

As explained before, one of the highlights of this case is the support for regular ATX power supplies. The power supply is installed sideways, at the front part of the case, with either its bottom fan facing inside the case or facing outside the case, so you can decide if you want the fan of your power supply pulling air from inside the case or from outside of it. As already shown,
there is an air filter for the power supply fan. You can install a power supply that is up to 7.1” (180 mm) deep.
