Lian Li PC-A05N Black Mini PC Case Review

[Kaasisle]

How big is this compared to a small tower case

[sciguy14]

@Kaasisle You can't really compare it so broadly... But about the same size.

[Kaasisle]

@sciguy14 Awesome, looks like I'm going to order this after my vacation (:

[boredphuck]

was looking at this case a few weeks ago and was wondering whether there would be clearance issues with the psu. your vid was really useful. whats the max length for the psu can it use safely?

[sciguy14]

@boredphuck It will actually depend on the motherboard. MY PSU wouldn't have even had an issue if the 24-pin connector was not located behind the where the PSU was. For reference, I was using an Ultra X3 800W.

for those who has a problem regarding with the temperature of your setup with this case

you should try to re position the fans

Front = intake, then Back = Exhaust

try it

and few more suggestion

your exhaust fan should be a high performance one

like FM123 or FM121 atleast 90CFF i think

BTW

i have this case and i really love it hahaha !!

I wonder what the cost for this PC is. o.O Would be great for playing Korean mmorpgs.

[Crazylogie]

had this case pc ran very hot in it

[simpsonstewie]

nice nice. but i still like my imac since i don't play games on it. Thats what the playstation 3 is for

[kyle830]

@simpsonstewie A ps3 fails in comparison to a PCs power and can't play nearly as many fun games.

Good stuff.

IMO, The Lian Li PCQ-08 has a much nicer design than this. Im not sure why you have chosen this computer.. soo I am sure there is a reason. But the PCQ-08 is simply a small computer tower.. :P

[sciguy14]

@NeilJillett1996 This case supports full size ATX motherboards. the PCQ-08 only supports mini-ITX.  As I mentioned, I already had an ATX motherboard I wanted to use in this case.

[NeilJillett1996]

@sciguy14 I c I c.. I thought the PCQ-08 did support Standard ATX.. But i guess not. Sorry. :P It is a pro little mini case though. :D

[shaazz4u]

Nice review!.. Waiting for more videos from you. Its been a long time since u uploaded a video. :)

[Mongoman999]

It's not the best design imo. I mean, intake at the back wouldn't really get as much air as cases are generally pushed against the wall. Plus the exhaust is where an intake for the HDD should be. Hot air passes over the HDD's, making them even hotter.

If' I had this case, i'd turn the fans around to change the airflow direction

[soulfinderz]

@Mongoman999 This case is brilliant, if you add 1-2 fans on the top. The low back intake fan brings ice cold air straight to the cpu. The harddrives wont get hot. The graphic cards can get hot if you dont add ventilation to the top(hot air gets trapped).

[sciguy14]

@Mongoman999 In an inverted design, this airflow actually makes a lot of sense, particularly once you add a fan at the top.

[Madt001]

Great review. Will we be seeing a video of you assembling the components into the case?

[sciguy14]

@Madt001 Nope, sorry.

[wtfomg13579]

i dont know why, but every time he talks im almost falling asleep, but it still is an detailed review

[cssful]

@wtfomg13579 too robotic voice? I prefer linustechtips "reviews" :D but these are pretty good also..

[Razear]

Is the motherboard tray removable?

[sciguy14]

@Razear no
