#827 - Lian Li PC-A12 Case Video Review

[S203]

So if we check back very soon. He will have another video review? What if we all checked back in 10 mins?

[Aeshmauniversus]

ahaaaaaa i can see you are on drugs , it is the first time that you spell your name clear and nice.

have some more, makes you calmer

[atkd95]

would a gtx 570 fit inside this case ?

[MyRandomReviews]

If you put the hardware in the case I must admit it would take much more effort, but it would give everyone a much better picture of how the case works. :)

[takeapieandrun]

Haha! The bloopers were funny...

[TheMash84]

Rodney, reviews are becoming a bit repeatously... same words, same things reviewed in every cases.

Myabe we need some of more pragmatic, as testing hardware in the cases, trying integrating watercooling solutions and compatibility.

[Herooftimex]

He knows what he is doing and intends to review a single product at a time. The systematic approach covers all the parts viewers need to know anyways. He does an amazing job and is very professional.

[vearheart42]

@TheMash84 The reviews are made to hit on all the point that matter. Doing these reviews on cases in any other way would take to long and resources I doubt he would have. I know of no one who has every radiator/motherboard/case combo known to man so compatibility would not make since to review.

[169ViceCity169]

if i plugg in my mic and headset.. and i got a soundcard.. does the dsound card still make the sound if i plugg it on the front or something??

[girlsdrinkfeck]

i might spend 500 quid on upgrading my PC , 120 for new case , 250 on new gpu , 100 on a samsung terabyte hdd and perhaps a better cooler for my cpu since i wanna OC my q6600 to 3.6 currently its 3.0 @ 37-42c per core

[AbtinX]

I'm doing the same thing. Check out the 295 GTX and maybe you'll change your mind about your current upgrade. Keep in mind that you'll need a power supply of atleast 650 watts to run it. Better to go with 800-1000 if your into over clocking.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

i already have the 4870x2 , had the upgrade since september and never been happieir , apart from the seagate TB drives suck dick, so replaced it with a samsung one

[AbtinX]

Cool :) That's a good configuration, I have a geforce 8600 gs and it is surprisingly awful. Strange thing is it has almost 1.5 GB memory, although only half is dedicated so you would expect something better then what you get I suppose.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

yer , i always buy on what benchmarks say lol so i dont get dissapointed

[girlsdrinkfeck]

lol americans give me thumbs down cas they are da oines dat losing

[DeadlyDevil666]

da ones dat? stupid naggers

[girlsdrinkfeck]

lol wtf ok :)

[RosskoWilko]

I got it..SP :)

[girlsdrinkfeck]

lol makes me laugh when americans cant say aluminium

[Brttttt]

Makes me laugh when people dont realize that they are saying aluminum not aluminium. Originaly it was aluminum but they changed it years later to fit in with the naming of elements under aluminium on the periodic table. Both names are recognized.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

course they are , used in diffeent lanbguages , excuse my typinmg , im pissed from lastr nights drinking

[xnitronx]

You got owned, son.

[InfiniteZr0]

I'm a fan whore when it comes to case cooling, so I'd probably not look at this since it only has 2 fans

[omykron23]

Does anybody know if there is a CANADIAN online shop that sells one of these ? I can only find newegg and they only ship in the US.

[XSnipermonkyX]

NCIX

[tsport100]

Great review.

I was sold, till I saw the price $300+

[nmai959]

It's only $140-150

[lloyd76oswald]

he does a good robot voice

[P47R1CK7H36R347]

PERFECT REVIEW!!

[ToughTofu]

naw, I'll skip.

I wouldn't want to dismantle an entire PC just for this. Anyway I uses notebook.

[warewolf801]

yay. I love it, free stuff rocks.

[ddrmegamixer]

That's all good but i hate doors their is no point to them they just get in the way

[Spongeluv11]

This guy's voice cracks me up xP

[Edik1981]

usb ports are at the bottom..gaygaygay..why they dont learn

[pupnasty87]

um...sir? all the drives are internal, not external, not one of those are located OUTSIDE (hince external). they are all INSIDE (hince internal) please take all that into mind when you review a case...

[pupnasty87]

yeah, i agree with jord...i can make better eviews in my sleep, cause i can atleast tell the difference between internal and external

[jordinyc]

To ZZZachb ... What? This 3DGameMan douche has FANS? OMFG! Dude, bad news, this guy's reviews are only popular because they're unbelievably BAD. Just google Real Ultimate Power and you'll get some idea of how he sounds to most actual geeks.

[jordinyc]

SydneyKarton (2 days ago) said "I'm pretty sure you can't copyright a commonly used expression. "

First of all I said TM, not Copywright. As far as TMing a common phrase: That was easy, Just Do It, You're Fired, Apple, Spam, ...more to the point, using "kick-ass" as a rating 1-tricks people into thinking he's w/MaxPC, and 2-LianLi putting "KickAss" on box tricks people into thinking MaxPC rated it 9 or +.

[neostitch]

I Think the  Fans Make it a Bit Loud

[interloperftv]

iglooman2, they're internal and called internal.

[andrewgrazier]

haha this is awesome

almost sounds like he has just dubbed it a few times!

so its pronounced ALUUUUUMinium

and LIEIAN LEIEE?? hahahaha

sounds like he is a sound board!!!

[GamingPalSean]

I wonder if this could fit an 8800gtx

[schwarg]

LOL your voice is funny, but good review

[Idler81643]

yeah.. his voice gives me a kind of robot feel.. need some emotion dude... nice review though..

[sos687]

he calls the bays "external drive" bays, im almost sure he means internal, since they are not uhh external...

[benb282]

making up "there" own words then... but dere sounds like there not the way hes saying aluminum ....aluminium was the correct english word

[benb282]

hes saying aluminum wrong ....americans jus make up dere own words ......

[barophobia]

how should it be pronounced? aluminIum? i seem to recall the word only having one "I" in it. how many Is can you count?

[benb282]

yeah in england its spelt aluminium...den americans jus probably thought was easier to say so they took the i out ....aluminum sounds like it glows in the dark

[surfacefunc]

you look like a fuckin asshole

[TheSkull1213]

that is not true the mother bord tray is removeable if you know how ^_^ ps this is a pice of shit!

[MyFailingMemory]

"its made from high grade aluminum, which means it remains very light weight and COOL!"

haah !nerd!!!!!!!

[DeeTeX]

bummer, found out about it just a tad to late, recently bought a brandless plastic case, with striking similarities, save the black/silver color scheme.

I'll recommend it to a friend.

[sirenlovesu]

y the hell is this vid speical, fucking borrrinngg nerd

[panenewtella]

O.o this is so NERD! 56K of views O.o

[janjaso]

Why in the fuck does this PC CASE have 50K views FUCK OFF DIRECTOR VIDEOS FUCK OFF WINEKONE ARGHHHHHHHHHHH FUCK UR GOOK MOTHER!

[TidoNags]

Ok, FREAK!!!

[jordinyc]

This video has so many views the same reason we all pay attention to Paris Hilton and Anna Nicole. People are fascinated by things they find unbelievable. Much like shiny objects before animals. and I'll admit it, I'm mesmerized.

[janjaso]

no its because its advertised on the side of the site because of propaganda and dogshit

[davidcutting]

here is another non relevant video post

[Hunghing121]

for security righhhhhhhhht......

[jreitsch]

It's actually pretty darn hard to damage a hdd with a magnet. It takes a fairly powerful magnet rubbed vigorously and for a long time to make any change to the platter surface. Seriously, there's NO WAY to damage your PC by putting even VERY POWERFUL magnets on the OUTSIDE of your PC case. (keep 'em away from the monitor tho). :D

[SMOKEDADDYRECORDS]

i saw a law & order episode where they went in and took a dudes pc while he was there he flipped a switch and when they carried though the doorway it wiped the pc he had some tubing or electromagnets or something around the doorway then he laugh my buddy said it could be done but im not sure myself

[janjaso]

actually ur wrong, theres a difference between a magnet and an electromagnetic feild, or electromagnet, like the dude below me said on law n order ep...mustve been hooked to electricity, try get a powerful 10-12inch sub put it next to ur hdd or case and if u run tests ull see ur harddrive performance drop a fair bit :D

[jordinyc]

DUDE! Did any of you notice the SPEAKER directly under the HARD DRIVES?! And you're arguing over magnetic door grabbers?

[madmuffinz]

only if it had a see through side panel :C

[J0nD0c]

this guy talks funny

[jordinyc]

THAT'S THE WEIRD THING! (pardon my caps-lock-thusiasm) He seems to be toggling between soundling like an articulate corporate voice-over MC, and sounding like he just got off the boat from Poland. It's not just certiain words or like he's lapsing, it just switches from one to the other randomly. Creeeeeepy!

[3Deity]

I might get this case - It looks like a computer should look. Pity they didn't offer it in orange with an Altix or DEC badge! :o)

[zuhutay]

It's a great thing to be able to change the power supply without having to remove the motherboard.

[sephirot969]

mine is much better than this one and was just for 50 dollars

[stephancelmare360]

Did he say milimeter or mili'liter? lolerskates

[nilzxx]

nice review again. i'd prefeer a magnet door though. those balls wear out.

[seropserop]

crap

[dpcamp]

Thermaltake makes a case exactly like this, I had to work on one once and it sucked ass.. never again. its all about antec.

[jordinyc]

OMG! This case SUCKS! Yes, there's no bling. That's fine; minimalism is cool. The PSU mounting is kinda neat, sure. But the HD cage is CARELESS!! The HD's are NOT SECURED! Tilt it to access the back and KERKLUNK! There go your 500 GB Raptors. Who cares about positioning the HD's 90° if you can't SEE it? No side vents or top vents, and the design is UGLY!! How much did Lian Li pay you? Also "KickAss" is a MaximumPC trademark! ENJOY THE LAWSUIT!

[mrjack1981]

LOL Put 3DGame in to your nick this makes you a pro hahaha! This Case totally sucks for modders.

[skaterblo]

Wow. How boring. Kudos for having the patientce to point out such tedious things man, you did it nicely.

[IWDA4]

Are you a robot, or a real man?

[nichtsooft]

Man you should have become a flight attendant; doing the safety instructions! *lol*

The vid is really informative! Keept on reviewing m8!

Greetz from Vienna...

[saturnv3]

i do like the psu installation system, but its an ugly case

[ke200]

The door looks ugly - it looks like the metal you get when you open up your computer...

[clsbezerra]

Isso e uma bo s ta

[mgkpraesi]

hmm..my antec 900 looks better ;)

[jvc85]

Y-O-U T-A-L-K  T-O F-A-S-T

[echo4019]

why does he talk like Microsoft Sam?

[mrmedo30]

Do you know that Microsoft SAM does not annunciate that well. Try to get SAM to say crotch. Really, it's really funny! Maybe this guy is trying to hide an accent or something.

[smartin04hero]

Omg that was boring.

[MouserScribe]

lmfao

That wasn't a review, it was a comedy routine with his voice! Good work.

[Alexvideoclip]

I DON'T CARE !!

[XerxesOmicron]

lol yeah. he sounds like a TV anchorman guy. a reallllly boring one.

[Tobacc0]

He's ah.. enunciating... whenever he gets to atechnical point or feature. It's a courtesy for newbies or whoever may need it. Since he's reading to EveryOne he's got to consider the LCD (Lowest Common Denominator) e.g. hard of hearing, Cheap Speaker Owners (they're not really human tho'), slow learners, people who don't understand why he's talking funny and other "slow laners"... arf.

[Makedonce93]

my case rips that man

[tomvill]

nice case, tho this guy bores me!!! 'there is a usb port here, ohh look, and thats a firewire port!"

[iqbalnaruto]

hahah i bought from COLORSit also much better than this ..air ventilation also much better than this .. got transparent sideview somemore ..

[hoodoouk]

Its a case for a PC for chuffs sake.You really must get out more.all of you.

[doom2090]

best comment of all dude!

[Dhampirekar98k]

its ugly and little...

[rex3453]

meh, I think an Antec 900 is better.

[notdamien]

Nice to see a budget Lian Li case.

[colintx800]

I got my Black kandalf IT'S HUGE!!!!EXCELLENT CASE!!!

INTEL E6600-EVGA 680i-8800GTX SLI SETUP EXCELLENT !!!!

[Celticdruid83]

i got a kandlaf bro its the bomb i definately recomend it

[Shark00n1337]

Great review!

Hey rodney, I'd love to se the new Stacker 832 reviewd! Thanks

[lonelyfag15]

but golem, it loks much cleaner and nicer with a door, insted of nasty cd drivers and shit

[golem72002]

they need to Stop putting doors on the case there pointless. easy open side panel is the only door you need.

[zZoiks]

agrees, doors are fucking irritating

[ricardovw]

nice review :)
