INTRODUCTION
SilverStone RVZ03 is a further evolution of the highly rated
RAVEN Z RVZ01-E, a slim form factor case with tremendous capability. It has the same optimized interior that has room for a standard ATX (PS2) power supply and support for some the biggest consumer graphics cards on the market with superb air cooling performance. Designed for use in either vertical or horizontal orientation, it can be placed comfortably in any space-constrained environment that requires a powerful PC. For those looking to build a slim form factor PC with extra flair, the RVZ03’s inclusion of addressable RGB lighting and control box bring about another exciting chapter to the famed RAVEN series of computer cases.

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. Be careful not to strike on glass side panel when removing it from the case.
Unscrew the screws from the rear of the chassis then

(2) ARGB LED connector guide
RVZ03-ARGB includes custom ARGB controller. It has dual modes that enables you to control lighting effect either via software (provided by motherboard) or hardware.
Software control : A. To control lighting via motherboard, make sure it supports addressable RGB (+5V, D, G) signals on its RGB header. B. If you have other ARGB devices such as SilverStone’s own LS03 light strip or FG122 ARGB fan frame, you may also connect them to RVZ03’s ARGB controller, below are installation steps:
1. Flip the controller switch to “MB” mode
2. Connect motherboard ARGB signal cable to motherboard
3. If needed, use included extension cable
4. When connecting non-SilverStone ARGB products, make sure pin definition and connector orientation are compatible
Hardware control: Utilizing the case’s reset button to change lighting effects
1. Flip the controller switch to “IC” mode
2. Connect other ARGB devices to RVZ03’s ARGB controller
3. When connecting non-SilverStone ARGB products, make sure pin definition and connector orientation are compatible
4. Connect the controller to power supply
5. Be sure not to connect case’s reset connector to motherboard as you are going to use reset button for changing ARGB colors and effects from now on
6. When PC is powered, press reset button on the case to change ARGB lighting effects

COMPONENT SIZE LIMITATIONS
(1) CPU cooler height limitation
83mm
11mm
4.2mm
A. Height limitation: The RVZ03 has 83mm height limitation for CPU cooler B. Upper boundary: the cooler can protrude 11mm over the motherboard’s top edge C. Front boundary: The clearance toward the front of the chassis is 4.2mm
Page 18
(2) PSU limitation
RVZ03’s maximum depth for a standard PS/2 (ATX) power supply is 150mm, but installation of a 150mm deep power supply will require sacrificing a 2.5" drive space and no room for cable connection after installation. So if using a 150mm deep modular power supply, make sure to connect all cables prior to installing it into the case. Power supplies with depth of 140mm or less may have enough room to allow for cable connection after installation so we recommend using 140mm deep modular power supply with flat cables, such as SilverStone’s own ST75F-PT

A. Length limitation RVZ03 can support 13" (330mm) consumer level graphics cards. Please contact us if you find a card that does not fit
B. Width limitation (i) The standard width for graphics card is 4.38" (111mm) (ii) With the graphics card holder installed, the maximum allowable width for graphics card is 5.16" (131mm) (iii) Without the graphics card holder, the maximum allowable width for graphics card is up to 5.88" (149mm)

68mm
C. Thickness limitation (i) Calculated from the bottom of the graphics card PCB to the top, the total thickness limitation is 68mm (ii) With the standard 34.8mm-thick dual slot graphics card installed, the maximum thickness of the fans is 32mm (iii) The thickness of the components on the back of the graphics card is limited to 3mm in the area supported by the graphics card holder; the thickness limitation for the rest of the components is 10mm

OPTIMAL THERMAL PERFORMANCE LAYOUT
If you use graphics card with omni-direction or open air
cooler, we recommend having two case fans on the bottom vents
VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL PLACEMENT
A. Because most vents are situated on the bottom, placing the RVZ03 vertically will result in better temperature than in horizontal position B. When using the case horizontally, please be sure of adhering rubber stands to the bottom
RECOMMENDATION FOR WATER COOLING
SilverStone TD03-SLIM is compatible with RVZ03 as an
option if an all-in-one (AIO) liquid cooler is needed
Cable routing
There is some space between the front panel and the side of the graphics card reserved for the cable routing
Page 21
MAINTENANCE AND UPGRADE
The RVZ03’s positive air pressure design is an effective
configuration that will 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 excellent cooling performance for years to come, we recommend cleaning all fan filters regularly every three months or half a year (depending on your environment).
The RVZ03 includes ultra-fine magnetic filters (model: FF123) which can be easily removed. If you accidentally loose/damage filters or need additional ones for backup, please contact your local SilverStone retailers or distributors for purchasing information: https://www.silverstonetek.com/wheretobuy_all.php https://www.silverstonetek.com/wheretobuy_all.php

PROTECT YOUR COMPUTER
Kensington Security Slot
Note: Cable security lock is not included with RVZ03
A lock and cable can be purchased on the market for use with the Kensington security slot located on rear of RVZ03 to prevent removal of the entire computer or top cover Caution: Please check for compatibility before purchasing the lock and cable for use with RVZ03’s Kensington security slot
Q&A
Q: Does RVZ03 fit in the Sugo Pack? A: Yes, it does, with room to spare!
Q: Can the NT06-PRO be used without fan in RVZ03? A: We do not recommend it
Q: Everything is properly installed; why does it not start up? A: If your PSU has an AC switch, make sure the switch is at the
“ON” position
