Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)First let me say that I bought this case knowing it was a micro-ATX case.
The Good:
#1 - The outside design and quality is awesome. This has to be my favorite looking SilverStone case yet.
#2 - The two included 120mm fans move a ton of air, but are whisper quiet. I can't hear them over the stock Intel CPU cooler fan.
#3 - Rounded/deburred edges...no more cut up and bloody hands! :-D
#4 - Removable motherboard tray.
The Bad:
#1 - The case is not "tool-less". You'll have to bust out the screwdriver for this case.
#2 - Poor 3.5" internal drive design. You can't use either of the external 3.5" drive bays to mount an internal HDD because the two drive covers are mounted like an actual drive, blocking any attempts to mount extra HDDs.
#2.5 - You can *NOT* use any RAM that has raised cooling fins. The internal HDD cage is centered in the case, so when I installed my RAM, the cooling fins on my RAM hit the HDD. If the HDD cage had be moved to the left most side of the cage, this wouldn't have been an issue.
#3 - SilverStone decided not to include their typical premium case feet. The case feet they *usually* use is akin to high-end AV equipment. The feet that come on this case are hard plastic...normally found on cheap-o cases.
Other thoughts:
#1 - The blue status indicator LEDs are Ultra-Super Bright LEDs. You don't need to turn the lights on, these two LEDs will light up the entire house. Ok, that's a little excessive, but they're *really* bright...and there's no need for that much overkill.
#2 - It looks like there might be a screen filter on the front intake fan...but to get to it, you would have to remove the entire front panel...something I don't want to have to do every time I clean the case.
#3 - This would be the perfect case if SilverStone would have put a little extra effort in to it. Hopefully the TJ08 will have a Full-ATX twin sometime soon.

Product Description:
For many, the Temjin series is a symbol of powerful full size tower cases, so when SilverStone engineers began working on a Micro-ATX tower case, they made sure it was as powerful as possible. The TJ08 was born with a setup that is simple yet unheard of in cases of its class. Equipped with dual 120mm fans and with only a short distance between them, a natural wind tunnel effect could be achieved to produce cooling efficiency rivaling the best full tower cases on the market. Besides having great cooling performance, the TJ08 is also an easy to use case with removable motherboard tray and logically placed buttons/connectors on its thick, beautifully finished aluminum front panel. If using top-of-the-line components in a micro tower was not an option before, it is now with the TJ08.
