The features of the Silverstone Grandia GD09-C in detail
The Grandia GD09 can accommodate large ATX and even SSI-CEB mainboards as well as graphics cards with a length of up to 30.9 cm. Up to three 120 mm fans (one is already pre-installed) and two 80 mm fans can be installed inside the housing to supply the hardware with fresh air. Removable filters are pre-installed to keep the interior free of dust.
To complement the elegant design, the GD09 has a thick plastic front panel that appears in a brushed aluminum look. There is also a ventilation opening in the lid, which is positioned exactly above the expansion cards.
Three 3.5-inch drives and another four 2.5-inch drives can be installed inside if the 5.25-inch is not used. Multi-purpose brackets also replace necessary adapters. The entire inner cage can be removed, simplified by two handles.
The minimalist case has seven (plus one vertically usable) slots for expansion cards. Of course, there are also two USB 3.0 ports as front connections - one type A and one type C.
