Lian-Li Industrial Co. Ltd has launched the ARMORSUIT SERIES PC-P50 Mid Tower chassis ideal for gaming systems. The hair-line brushed all aluminum chassis features advanced thermal dynamics, using one fan on the front (1x 120mm@1200RPM), plus dual vibration reduced top mounted fans (2x 140mm@1000RPM) and one rear 120mm@1500RPM extraction fan. The 8x PCI expansion slots enable CrossFireX and Tri-SLI graphic card setups. The chassis front face has 9x 5.25"ODD bays which have filters that are washable. The front panel clips off easily and conveniently. The entire chassis is designed for tool-less implementation, so installing your hardware and getting your syst em up and running is extremely quick and easy. The dimensions stand at 210x490x490mm (W, H, D). The top and front panels are clipped via special plastic kits which reduce metal on metal contact wear as well as prevent vibration.

Complete Tool-Less Design
The first of its kind unique Power Supply Bracket allows the PSU to be secured using only the tool-less clasp which is ideal to hold the PSU securely without the need for securing screws. The 9x ODD 5.25" bays have a patented mounting bar which secures your optical drives safely and securely. The PCI brackets made of solid aluminum have a special tool-less clip to secure your graphics and daughter cards with the utmost of ease. Similarly the HDD drives are secured in a tool-less bracket and mounted with rubber grommet struts to prevent movement and vibration from today's fast moving and highly specialized HDD components. The front panel and top panel are easily detachable for access to fans and air filters. The ARMORSUIT PC-P50 chassis is imbued with all the functional and user friendly design aspects users have co me to expect in a Lian Li case.

Thermal features
Lian Li engineers have optimized the airflow to enter from the front mounted fans, directly cooling the HDD's and ODD's and thereafter refreshing the CPU region. The hot air generated by the CPU and GPU is directly extracted via the rear 120mm Fan and the dual top mounted fans. Both top mounted fans have special vibration free kits, which allow for silent operation as well as easy and safe removal of the fans should you wish to do so. The volume of airflow is more than sufficient to keep your gaming rig cool and conveniently silent.

General features
The chassis supports 9x 5.25" Optical drive bays with one optional 1x 3.5" external and 4 additional internal 3.5" bays for HDD's in an anti-vibration movable cage. Each HDD has its own clip in bracket. The ARMORSUIT PC-P50 case is for Micro-ATX or ATX motherboards and has 8 PCI expansion slots, which are well ventilated with special vented brackets when not in use. The top panel is removable with the multimedia I/O ports on the top panel consisting of 2x USB2.0 as well as HD+AC97 Audio. The PSU has an advanced flame-retardant vent built into the bottom of the chassis. This uniquely designed vent prevents the possibility of heat and flames from exiting your case via the vent should something catastrophic like a short circuit occur to your PSU or other equipment inside.

Traditional Durability
The classical stylish functional design is the Lian Li goal. The essence of Lian Li products is the craftsmanship of the engineering. Intrinsic to the workmanship and quality is the customization which includes a whole host of optional extras that can be purchased to add more features to an already feature rich product.


I was going to get my A16 modded but this seems to have most of the stuff I wanted already done, looks very nice.

It does look good, but I'm not keen on the upward pointing USB's and Audio on the top panel.

I'm pretty much set on getting a Silverstone Fortress as a replacement for my Antec 300 but not so sure now... d'oh! :)
 
Hmm. If OCUK get them in stock quick at a reasonable price (I'm buying sometime around wednesday), I'll get one, and a Lian Li side panel. Right now it's an Antec 1200 for me.
 
This actually looks pretty cool imo. I've been looking for a nice looking case for a while - not too impressed with previous Lian-Li cases though.
 
Very nice and a lot less Lego like than the Antec 900

Definitely will be one that I'd consider for my next rig :)
 
Just thinking, but could those roof fans be the perfect place for a 120.2 Rad to be mounted? :p

might be tight with the motherboard, but I reckon its possible there
 
hmmm looks nice and looking at the MB tray cable management shouldn't be a problem.

it looks like a antec 900 lol but for cooling I think I perfer this also
 
I reckon there could be enough room for a triple TFC in the front (they're shorter than the PA120.3's) and still keep an optical drive, (mount it with the Lian Li Rad brackets) plus I reckon one of the new Koolance Cooper Rads would go in the top without any modding, at 30mm thick, it's thinner than an MCR and would more than likely not foul the motherboard.
 
nice case but imo shoulda had 140mm super slow rotating/silent fans on the front 3 of them and 1 on the back and 2 optional on top woulda made it perfect :)

140mm fans and there no noise factor need to replace 120mm fans....
 
So when is this actually going to be in the shops then? Been looking around and have'nt found it anywhere yet. I was going to get a PC-A17B but might wait for these if it's not too long.
