SilverStone surprises with Micro-ATX FLP03 retro case

SilverStone has unexpectedly unveiled its new FLP03 chassis at EXPO 2025 in Japan. This new model continues the company's retro line, offering a classic 80s beige-style PC look, but this time explicitly designed for micro-ATX motherboards.

The reveal came as a surprise, as the community was still awaiting the launch of its larger sibling, the FLP02. According to Tom's Hardware, SilverStone had delayed shipments of the FLP02 to coincide with its presentation at the Tokyo tech fair, making the appearance of a second, more compact model an unannounced bonus.

The FLP03 is visibly smaller than the FLP02 but maintains the key design elements of its predecessor, most notably the iconic front panel. This panel is fully equipped with power and reset buttons, a physical key lock, and a Turbo button, complete with LED indicators.

This reduction in size, however, comes with compatibility trade-offs. The FLP03 drops support for the SSI-CEB and standard ATX motherboards that the FLP02 could house. It also features fewer drive bays and expansion slots, as well as inferior compatibility with cooling components. Despite its new Micro-ATX focus, the FLP03 maintains a high level of compatibility with graphics cards up to 412 mm in length, CPU coolers up to 171 mm in height, and standard ATX PSUs. More details about the FLP03 are expected to be revealed during CES 2026.
