LUCID SERIES
Micro-ATX chassis with artful blend
of engineering and aesthetics
INTRODUCTION
SilverStone created the Lucid series in an attempt to
combine SilverStone’s traditionally excellent engineering quality
with transparent or “lucid” aesthetics of glass-based exterior.
LD01, as the first Lucid series chassis, achieves this objective in
splendid fashion. The striking exterior is covered in tempered
glass flanked by functional stainless steel bands that not only
adds a touch of premium feel but also protect the glass and
simplify installation. With inverted motherboard tray design taken
from the Temjin TJ08-E, one of the best Micro-ATX cases ever
released, graphics or expansion cards installed into the LD01
can intake fresh air from above the chassis for vastly superior
cooling compared with traditional layout that has the PSU & drive
cage shroud limiting airflow. Another benefit of the inverted layout
is that graphics card supporter will make contact only with
graphics card's backside, thus eliminate potential interference
with graphics card fans. Other notable features the LD01 has
include front USB Type-C connector, quick access dust filter,
smart backside cable routing, highly flexible space for installing
all popular core components, and support for multiple cooling
configurations. There are five total 120 / 140mm fan slots around
the case with maximum radiator support at front, top, and rear.
For those looking for a compact, beautiful glass design in
Micro-ATX form factor without compromises, the LD01 is the
clear and lucid choice.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
Before you begin, please make sure that you
Have all components collected.
Check that all components do not have compatibility problems
with each other or with the case.
If possible, assemble the components outside the case first to
make sure they are working.
Keep the motherboard manual ready for reference during
installation.
Prepare a Philips screwdriver.
Loosen two screws from both left and right side panels to
1
remove them
Insert the I/O shield included with your motherboard
2
Insert standoffs as required by your motherboard in
3
corresponding mounting holes, then install motherboard
Remove expansion slot covers to install required expansion
4
cards.Then install the graphic card holder, this holder only
supports card on first and second expansion slot. Please
lay down the case before installing the card holder to
ensure that the graphics card is not bending by gravity
Pull out to open the tool-less bracket and secure your hard
5
drive on the tray. Pay attention to the orientation of the drive,
its connectors should be on the same side as the drive tray’s
pull tabs
Install 2.5" drives behind the motherboard tray and secure
6
with screws
We recommend that you start cable manage now and
7
connect cables such as the ATX 24pin, front I/O connectors,
and any other connectors from front panel devices
Connect all cables and wires
8
Install power supply into the case

design to accommodate different motherboard specifications
(2) Front I/O connecter Guide
Below are the front I/O connectors pin definition, please also
check your motherboard manual to cross reference with
motherboard’s front I/O pin headers. SilverStone’s I/O connectors
are in block type to simplify installation

COMPONENT SIZE LIMITATIONS
T
he LD01 was designed to accommodate oversized
components, but we still recommend referring to the following
dimension guidelines:
(1) CPU Cooler limitation
168mm
6.8mm
Height limitation for CPU cooler is 168mm with 6.8mm clearance
over the motherboard’s top edge
(2) Power supply limitation
160 ~ 220mm
HDD
PSU
BKT
The LD01 supports power supply depth from 160 to 220mm
depending on hard drive bracket’s position. Please refer to
diagram for locating the bottom screws that allow for hard drive
cage adjustments
(3) Graphics card / expansion card length limitation
174mm
370mm
The total length available for graphics card and front panel fan
or radiator is 370mm. Width restriction is 174mm
(4) Liquid cooling radiator limitations
105mm
71mm
20mm
LD01 supports 120/140/240/280mm radiator in the top panel.
The distance of fan mounting hole and the first expansion card
is 105mm. As shown in figure A, it can fit a dual-slot graphics
card along with a 30mm thick radiator and a 25mm thick fan.
The radiator and fan will occupy the install space for motherboard’s
third and fourth expansion slots.
Further detail on radiator and expansion card positioning:
As shown in Figure B, if 140mm fans are installed into LD01’s
top panel, they will be 20mm away from the surface of the
motherboard. This is the same distance that motherboard designs
use to keep clear of graphics card installed on the motherboard,
so technically the 140mm fans will also not interfere with other
components around the third and fourth expansion slots. If your
motherboard’s SATA slots are unfortunately blocked by installed
radiator or fan, we recommended purchasing SilverStone CP11
super slim SATA cables to solve the interference problem.LD01
supports 120/140/240/280mm radiator in the front panel. As
shown in Figure C, the total thickness of the fan and radiator can
be up to 71mm, we recommend installing the radiator with its
hoses on top. If you want to install 280mm radiators on both top
and front panels simultaneously, we recommend using radiators
with less than 30mm thickness to avoid potential interference
with one another. A 120mm radiator can be mounted on the the
rear panel of the case, there is no thickness limitation if the
height of the motherboard components in the same area are less
than 50mm.
MAINTENANCE AND UPGRADE
Illustration: An example of a GPU cooler that is filled with
dust and has lost most of its cooling performance. We recommend
setting up LD01 as a positive air pressure case so along with the
included filters, they can help effectively reduce dust buildup inside
the case. Small air particles or lint will accumulate over time on
intake filters instead of on the components inside the case. To
maintain LD01’s cooling performance for years to come, we
recommend to clean all fan filters regularly every six months to a
year (depending on your environment)

ones for backup, please contact your local SilverStone retailers
