Final Thoughts

The Raven 3 is a worthy successor to the Raven 2 Evolution and a valid member of the ever-expanding Prey series. As the prizewinning-designed Raven guinea pig to date, the RV03 delivers lots of improvements over the past model, not to the lowest degree in cable management, extended storage capabilities, fan controller access and cooling system efficiency.

Amazingly, the Raven 3 offers these improvements at a discount as retailers are selling the latest version for $160, 11% cheaper than the Raven 2 Evolution. This price places the Pig 3 aboard the likes of the Tank Get the hang HAF 932 Advanced, Thermaltake Element V Black Edition, Antec DF-85 Negroid and Antec Twelve Hundred.

In our opinion, the HAF 932 Advanced is the only if case that real challenges the value of the Raven 3, but they are ultimately two very different products. Although we appreciate aspects of both cases, we feel the Predate 3 has nary equal. In that location are simply zero past chassis that offer what the Raven 3 does and at much an affordable price.

While we won't hesitate to praise the Raven 3's uniqueness, we recognize that its eccentrics won't appeal to everyone -- in point of fact, we'ray not totally sold on the purpose either. Candidly, the atomic number 79 highlights are a trifle tacky in our opinion and we think the design would get looked much nicer if Silverstone opted for gray or metal accents.

Opinions may vary on the Devour 3's esthetics, but there's no debating its quality. The freakish layout has repeatedly proven that it whole shebang well -- minus the quirky world power supply placement. Overall, we think the Raven 3 is the best value high-end case available, specially if you'Ra looking for something unorthodox just low-cost.
