Going to install a 3960x and a Mars II in this beast, with the Rampage IV Gene-z and 16GB 2400mhz RAM. 4 M4 512GB SSD's should fit for RAID 0+1, also getting an AX1200 with the individually braided cables from Corsair. Any improvements/advice, anyone?
Actually all the holes this case has help it to get fresh and cool air faster than a normal case, which makes it a great case for gaming and all you could use it for.
@windson7 The problem is - would you expect this case to outperform another mid-tower or small case at this price point? This is a perfect example of form over function.
Why does this video get such a low rating? This review is as good as it gets. Some lazy ass reviewers like 3Dgameman don't even bother with installing the parts into the case.
I guess I'm the only one who can appreciate it. I would never buy it, especially at that price point, but I think it's kinda cool. Looks like a turbo compressor.
I know these comment have probably died, and I don't want to restart them.. But what happened to the guy that used to do these reviews.. He was a lot better in my opinion.
Love HWC, but please review cases that are relevant...Even though you say this case can handle cable management with creativity, the fact that the whole case is mesh, I can see EVERY cable and it looks absolutely UGLY.
If you're gonna review a mATX case try something from Fractal or how about the Silverstone Temjin TJ08?
Wow HardwareCanucks is probably the best review channel today. So pro, so efficient and simple. Everything important was mentioned. Good job and keep it up!
Spokesmen for several case manufacturing companies have rejected the idea of "Extreme" Cases, As in have a cut out for a 480mm Rad on top, 3x120mm fans on front 2x120mm fans on the back and all that crazy crap people usually have to mod to get because they claim that market is too niche and they wont make enough sales... Then they come out with a case like this, honestly it baffles me. -The case I described was a over-hyped exaggeration to explain, but still.
Whoa, I think its great Lian Li is trying something new...but I think this Case is going to be a complete failure. If somebody disagrees with me lets wait a year and see if they roll this design on or make a similar variation. Might as well produce a pink version of this product, because this thing doesn't quite scream "manly". My neighbor's wife would like it, her kitchen is seashell themed.
I had one of these as a media pc and quite frankly, it was STUPID! Replaced it with a Fractal R3. Soo much easier to work with, quieter, cheaper and I think better looking. It's a shame because form experience, Lian Li stuff is pretty elite... Not this one. AVOID!
Nice review. To address all the haters :), Lian Li should just stick an Apple brand sticker on that snail and it will fly off the shelfs like a rabbit. :)
you guys are dumb, obviously this isn't meant for normal enthusiasts/gamers, its meant to be like an art piece. so obviously it isn't going to have crazy airflow nor is it going to be inexpensive
@Daviderubber I understand your opinion but there is no such failure in the product list of lian li like this! if there would be innovation in this case, it would be ok.
@Enfeeblement Way to take it personal, man... Harmless, and might I say jokingly-made comment and you get this excited about it? OBVIOUSLY they had made something like it before, he explains that one sentence after that quote.
I would rather use my motherboard box.
