The SilverStone Sugo 14 continues the company's tradition of offering SFF cube style cases in a time where ultra-compact ITX enclosures are making quite the splash, but also tend to carry quite the price premium. That said, while the Sugo 14 does not clock in below that magic $100 mark, it is priced adequately for a unique enclosure.

By allowing for more room with its dimensions, the SilverStone Sugo 14 is able to hold all the usual bulky components of a powerful system. With the headroom above the ITX board for even the largest tower coolers and the ability to install a full-size ATX power supply, you won't have to limit yourself here and can pick from most classic parts, which also tends to translate into a lower parts price than with some niche component.

On top of that, the fact that the Sugo 14 can hold a long triple-slot GPU is really interesting in times like these, where both AMD and NVIDIA are breaking the dual-slot barrier with their latest offerings. Add that the chassis can also accommodate 240 mm liquid cooling setups and you have all the fixings for a compact, yet flexible and powerful gaming system. Unfortunately, for this to really appeal to the gaming/enthusiast crowd, the front panel would need to get a face-lift as the face of the Sugo 14 looks, well, boring for that target segment. On top of that, while the ODD bay is awesome for the more utilitarian user, most gamers/enthusiasts won't care for one these days, and it could be used for internal storage purposes instead.

However, the chassis not having a window is perfectly fine as SilverStone designed it to be placed on its side as well. As such, it will mimic a layout of a small tower enclosure, which could be pretty useful for some. While the SilverStone Sugo 14 is not as cheap as other SFF cubes out there, it does give you the best of everything. For those looking for that uncompromising SFF setup, there is not a lot of choice, which makes the Sugo 14 pretty unique in its price bracket.
