Fortress Series FT05 Product Overview Introduction The Fortress FT05 represent SilverStone’s continued dedication in improving and reinventing computer chassis design. Similar to the RAVEN RV05, it no longer has any 5.25” drive bay and utilizes SilverStone’s fame 90 degree rotated design. Previous full ATX SilverStone chassis with 90 degree layout often had to compromise on space efficiency due to fixed length of the motherboard in rotated orientation. So the elimination of 5.

Fortress Series FT05 Optimal Thermal Performance Layout (1) CPU Cooler If you are installing a tower-style CPU cooler, we recommend d that th t the th CPU fan f blows bl upward d to t workk with FT05’s overall airflow. Falls Sie einen turmartigen CPU-Kühler installieren, empfehlen wir, den CPU-Lüfter die Luft nach oben blasen zu lassen, damit er mit der gesamten Luftbewegung im FT05 zusammenarbeitet.
Fortress Series FT05 Optimal Thermal Performance Layout (2) Graphics Card x o x When choosing a graphics card, we recommend models that have fan blowing exhaust air to the rear slot, this will ensure smooth and efficient airflow within the FT05 for maximum cooling performance.
Fortress Series FT05 Optimal Thermal Performance Layout (3) Tips for cable management Please refer to the following diagrams A. There are plenty of cable tie bridges behind the motherboard tray, which you can utilize to organize cables. Обращайтесь к следующим чертежам За лотком системной платы имеется множество проушин для безопасного крепления кабелей.
Fortress Series FT05 Optimal Thermal Performance Layout (4) Fan speed adjustment FT05’s Air Penetrator 180mm fans allow for adjustment for speeds of 600/900/1200rpm 180mm fan switch illustration: At "L" position, fan is set to low speed. When the switch is in the middle position, the fan will run at medium speed. At “H” position, the fan is set to high speed. Die Geschwindigkeit der zwei Hauptlüfter des FT05 kann angepasst werden: 600 U/min, 900 U/min oder 1200 U/min.
Fortress Series FT05 Optimal Thermal Performance Layout (5) Replacing fan SilverStone offers three retail 180mm fans for replacement or upgrades. Thermal performance is not always directly related to overall airflow, in most situations, Air Penetrator fan’s air focusing design is most optimal for use in the FT05. SilverStone bietet drei 180-mm-Retail-Lüfter zum Austauschen oder Aufrüsten.
Fortress Series FT05 Upgrade and maintenance (1) Fan filter removal guide Illustration: An example of a GPU cooler that is filled with dust and has lost most of its cooling performance FT05’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.

Fortress Series FT05 Upgrade and maintenance 07 Downgrade to 120mm or 140mm fans: The bottom panel has mounting holes designed for 120mm or 140mm fans, install accordingly. Возможность использования 120-мм или 140-мм вентиляторов На нижней панели имеются крепежные отверстия для установки 120-мм или 140-мм вентиляторов, установите их соответственно. Auf 120- oder 140-mm-Lüfter herunterstufen In der Bodenplatte befinden sich Montagebohrungen für 120 oder 140 mm Lüfter. Verwenden Sie diese entsprechend.
Fortress Series FT05 Q&A Q: If I have a tower-style CPU cooler, is it possible to run it without CPU fan installed? A: It’s possible but for best balance of cooling and quietness, installing a fan directly on the CPU cooler is usually more effective than installing exhaust fan on rear of the case.
Fortress Series FT05 Q&A Q: I have an all-in-one liquid cooler, where should I install the radiator? A: Most should fit in the top 120mm fan area. If you have larger cooler, we recommend installing it on the bottom panel. F: Ich habe einen All-in.One-Flüssigkeitskühler. Wo soll ich ihn installieren? A: Die meisten passen in den oberen 120 mm Lüfterbereich. Ist der Kühler größer, empfehlen wir Ihnen, ihn auf der Bodenplatte zu montieren.
Fortress Series FT05 Q&A Q: Can I remove and clean the fan filter while the computer is turned on? A: Yes, but to reduce the chance of foreign objects touching and damaging the spinning fans while the system is on, we recommend doing so quickly.
Fortress Series FT05 Q&A Q: When I turn on the computer, why don’t the 180mm fans spin (or they spin slower than expected)? A: If your fans are connected to the motherboard, we suggest turning off temperature control function in the BIOS. If you want to use temperature control function on your motherboard, we recommend setting the RV05’s physical fan speed switch to high for a lower starting voltage and a wider range of control.
Fortress Series FT05 Q&A Q: I want to install customized liquid cooling system, do you have any recommendations? A: If you are thinking about installing a triple 120mm radiator, we highly recommend a dual 180mm radiator such as the “Magicool Dual 180” instead. Although both types of radiators have the same length, the dual 180mm radiator has approximately 50% larger surface area for much higher performance potential. F: Ich möchte ein angepasstes Flüssigkeitskühlsystem installieren.
