Silverstone Milo Series ML06B-E Mini-ITX Chassis Review

Complete System

Building a system inside the Milo isn’t the easiest task in the world, space is limited, but then again that’s bound to happen with such a small chassis.

There’s room for a decent size low profile cooler, but keep in mind that something like the Cooler Master Gemini we’ve used, would likely mean removing the top panel fan; that’s a pros and cons scenario. In a chassis this slim, a stock CPU cooler is more than good enough.

Cable management is a bit of a nightmare, especially since the space between the hard drive bays and the PSU is limited. However, it’s not impossible and as you can see, I managed it in the end.

One good thing, the excess cables didn’t cause issues with the expansion slots, so if you do have a card you need to add, you shouldn’t have any issues with doing so. Then again, I think I’d rather fit two 80mm fans on the side, even more so if you were wanting to run something like a gaming focused APU based system.

With the top cover back in place, you would barely know there was a system in here; it looks very neat and tidy overall.

There’s a good amount of ventilation around all the major components too, so cooling you be very good, even for such a slim design.

While the chassis will sit nicely under your TV when laid horizontally, putting it up on your desktop looks ever better with the use of the included vertical mounting feet!
