i've always had a black or dark case and fancied a change, plus i knew the black went with that colour cause of my housemates case, i think it looks rather good

i think the black looks a lot better with silver when it isnt so cluttered (ie with the fan controller in) now it looks messy, think i'll take it out tomorrow unless i get used to it

Looks nice.

But in my opinion, I think black would look even better to match the color of those drives.

I've only a single beige DVD-RW, I assume I can get an aluminium bezel so that I can rip off the beige one and attach the silver one?

Yeh I suppose Black on silver does have a classy look, thing is both the fan controller and the bay udnerneath are pretty chaotic and don't help in the looks department, if you had 4 clean drives in there it would look great. 2 tone lian li

Get some black side panels for it

Right... thought you was refering to the case not being in it's entirety

Simplicity, great build and looks in one neat package. And what a price. Perfect!

KizZ · 29 Apr 2006 at 14:27

Great pics! not really a suitable emoticon now is it?!

PrOdiGy1 · 30 Apr 2006 at 00:13

damn that pc7b looks nice. i ordered one earlier along with some akasa ambers

kbc · 30 Apr 2006 at 13:06

That's settled it. I'm going to opt for the black one!

Excellent photos neverender!

My silver PC7's had a dust filter on the front on the front fan, very different to that black one.

Mine arrived bright and early this morning! (8:40!) Just had a quick check before I shot off to work to see if i'd got the SE model, low and behold 120mm back & front! Beauty of a case.

Amidar · 3 May 2006 at 22:44

So it looks like they are coming with the 2 x 120mm fans?

Just bought another eclipse second hand to replace my twisted one

But yesterday bought a Vapochill lightspeed in silver so looks like i'll will buy a Lian Li PC7+

Hi Dave, Welcome to OcUK forums, before you do anything else please have a read HERE it will ensure you stay around for some time.

In answer to your questions, you would need to be very unlucky to get a older 80mm exhaust PC7+ they are no longer in production and have been replaced with the 2 x 120mm

So you either have to wait for OC to get more in stock or Google is your friend as the Forum Rules state that you cannot recommend or mention competitors.

Indeed, ALL the recent reports in this forum of purchases from OCuk have been for 2x120mm PC7+ or PC007's (only randomness is whether you get a 7 or 007)

Tuatara · 18 May 2006 at 15:16

Cheers, I thought that might be the case (sorry for any breach there!).

Guess I'll just wait until they get them in stock again.

have had my black one for a week now, have to say what a great case, I was always sorta sitting on the fence about one, but when my Chieftec Drago wouldn't fit into my new desk I had to get something that would. And this really did the trick for me.

Little less room on the inside than to what I'm used to, but much more silent than the old dragon when I had all that ones fans going, so superb case

Anyone still sat on the fence should go and get one

Just to clear things up:

Both my flatmate and I have bought the PC-7s from OcUK. My case is silver and my flatmates is black. We have both recieved the PC-007 model with two 120mm fans at the front and back and an 80mm blowhole at the top. We have both purchased 80mm fans for them, I have an akasa amber where as my flatmate has an acoustifan quiet.

My case - the silver one, came with two 120mm blue-LED fans. The black case did not. The black case came with two plain 120mm retail fans, which my flatmate has replaced with two 120mm akasa ambers.

Yewen, if you want photos for your review site of them both etc, just ask buddy.

How about a pair of reviews to go with them.

Just email them to me and I will put them up, got a few to update tommorrow.
