At Long Last!!! My PC-70

Active 95 · 7 Apr 2006 at 16:15

My PC-70 finally arrived today!!! (ordered 18/3/06) been a long wait but it was worth it

noticed the tray for the psu is slotted now so i can put the psu in the right way round. Will change all the fans for ambers, got a blue bulgin switch to add, my tiger side panel with UV led's, might try and put the usb ports on the top and a small grill in the side like the G-70 and maybe a 120mm fan on the top with a small window with a couple of chinese symbols, anyway am highly impressed with the quality!!!

They look like very nice cases, pitty the lack of 120mm fans tho

Yeah, they really should have designed it with 120mm fans in mind... it's big enough!

I have 3x120mm case fans in a super lanboy so 80mm sem a bit of a waste in such a huge case, looks great though!

If 120mm fans were around when that case was designed they would have, same with the Cheiffy Scorpio/dragon and there 80mm's.

G70 is the one to be looking at for the bigger fan sizes.

As every, stunning case; nice one getting hold of one; getting quite rare!

Ok bulgin switch fitted, thinking of adapting these mb usb's and fitting on top of case, anyone know if i can get an extension cable so they will be long enough to reach the mb or is it a complete rewire? I know fans may be an issue for lots of you but i won't be overclocking so i hope my 80mm will be adequate + i think i'll put a 120mm on top.

How did you eat away at the bit behind the switch? And how are you going to wire it?

Active 95 · 7 Apr 2006 at 19:39

trusty dremel with a 3mm routing bit, cuts brilliant

Noni · 7 Apr 2006 at 20:01

Nice

But, with doing this, do you not lose the L.E.D light on the Lian Li?

Or do you use a Y splitter?

Active 95 · 7 Apr 2006 at 20:25

yep the power led is made redundant but you keep the hdd led

Yewen · 7 Apr 2006 at 20:27

Could you not find another use for the LED.

Hook it up for the CDrom somehow, as you cant see it if your using the Lian Li stealth bezels.

not thought about it really, but will look into it, any ideas gratefully accepted

The PSU tray has been slotted for a while, though the fan grill cut-outs are less restrictive on your version.

Mods easy enough for 120mm fans.

The front is straight forward, avoiding the existing holes and cut outs:

The rear is a fairly tight fit, but worthwhile:

Nice bit of modding there! looks great!

That's a big case, mister :cool:

Lovely, though

Congrats.

DaveMac, what PSU are you using in that case?
