SilverStone launches the retro-looking FLP03 mATX case with a functional Turbo button

23 June 2026 at 15:30

Silverstone has finally launched the FLP03, a retro-inspired microATX chassis that pairs 1990s desktop aesthetics with modern hardware compatibility. Featuring a beige finish, the case has three 5.25β€³ expansion bays at the front and a functional Turbo button that triggers full-throttle cooling.

The FLP03's interior layout accommodates microATX and Mini-ITX motherboards, as well as graphics cards up to 413mm in length and PSUs up to 200mm in length. Builders can install liquid cooling radiators up to 360mm, tower coolers up to 169mm tall, a 180mm front fan, a 120mm rear fan, and various top fan configurations with 120mm and 140mm fans. Storage options include a mix of 5.25β€³, 3.5β€³, and 2.5β€³ drives across the three front bays and internal mounts.

SilverStone's exterior design is made to look like the type of PCs we had in the 1990s, including retro style buttons. A built-in front fan PWM display monitors system cooling, while a functional turbo button can let you ramp your fans up to max speeds.

Connectivity is handled by a front I/O panel containing USB-C, USB 3.0, audio, and microphone ports. The case is available with an MSRP of $179.99.

KitGuru says: Combining nostalgic 1990s styling with support for 360mm radiators and long graphics cards makes the FLP03 an interesting option for builders wanting a retro aesthetic without sacrificing performance.

Computex 2026: SilverStone’s updated retro case, new AIOs and massive power supplies

4 June 2026 at 13:05

Today at Computex 2026, we visited SilverStone to check out the newly updated FLP03 retro case, alongside massive new server-grade chassis, 3000W+ power supplies and new AIO liquid coolers.Β

SilverStone has taken a big shift this year towards enterprise-grade and server hardware to meet growing demand from the AI sector. The RM61-MCS is a prime example and one of the first cases we go over in our video. This one is built to house multi-GPU setups with liquid cooling. The example we saw had all seven PCIe slots used up, each with a liquid cooling block and tubing attached. The Ultra Fort 5110 uses a layout more akin to a high-end gaming PC, though it is built for enterprise-grade systems, with space for dual power supplies (with no redundancy), two RTX 5090s and dual CPU socket motherboards, as well as liquid cooling.

The WS520-R takes things a step further by widening the chassis to create room for custom liquid-cooling hardware, while most of the previous systems shown used AIOs. The extra space at the front of the case could also be used for storage bays instead if required.

The WS381-E is built with mass storage in mind. It has easily-accessible HDD and SSD bays going all the way up the front of the chassis. Then further into the case, behind the storage-focused front panel, there are the three cooling fans you would typically expect to see, though this pillar can be removed if needed. Inside are two RTX Pro graphics cards, alongside an AIO-cooled CPU and a roof-mounted PSU. The RM48 and RM49 cases are a bit more traditional, created for high-end workstations with huge amounts of space inside for cooling.

Those looking to build a NAS will want to look towards SilverStone's CS line, including the CS340 and CS240, designed with high airflow in mind to keep your drives running cool.

On the consumer side of things, SilverStone is showing off the FLP03, which is a newer retro-style case. This one has a removable front-panel hiding a massive 180mm intake fan. Other parts of the front panel, like the alternative power and reset switches, can be removed to fit another huge intake fan at the front. If you do opt to remove the alternative power switch section from the front panel, you can use the more modern I/O at the top of the case instead, which includes power/reset buttons, USB-A and USB-C ports, as well as headphone and microphone jacks. While it is a very compact Micro-ATX case internally, there is still room for AIO liquid cooling for your CPU, and a full PSU shroud, even with the massive floppy bays at the front.

The SETA X1M appears to be the same design as the FLP03, but in a complete black finish for those who don't want the retro white/beige colours.

For something a bit more modern, SilverStone has the LD06 and LD-06M, which are both fishtank style cases with three-sided glass panels and back-connect motherboard support.

On the power supply front, SilverStone has a huge range of enterprise-grade units, including slim-profile 3200W units for space-constrained racks. For something more traditional, SilverStone has the Hela series of ATX-sized PSUs, each with 80Plus Platinum efficiency, modular cables and capacities up to 3200W. SilverStone has also brought a new dust-resistant coating to the PCBs of its FX-series power supplies to help with longevity.

For AIO liquid coolers, SilverStone has the new Hailstone 360 and 420. These are designed for workstations, supporting LGA 1851/1700 Intel sockets, as well as AMD's sTR5, SP6, TR4, AM4 and AM5 sockets. They also come with an interchangeable pump top, so you can swap one in that has an extra fan on top to help cool RAM. There is also a range of workstation-grade air coolers as well, including the more traditional looking XED100 and the XE04E-1851, as well as the ultra-slim XE01 and the dual heatsink XE02 for Threadripper and AM5 systems.
