Lian Li PC-A05

[p4radox]

Who else absolutely loves the look of this case?

I'm planning on transplanting my current rig into one at some point soon, ready for a full system upgrade in summer. At the moment I've got an Antec Aria that's noisy as hell, and a bugger to work in.

The only disadvantages I can see to the A05 are the slightly non-standard airflow and the high price. For a little more I could get an Eclipse or Mirage which are my favourite big cases. But I really want to stay with a fairly small case for easy transport and more desk room.

Any comments/ other suggestions for cases around this price point?

I suppose it's unlikely that Lian Li will bring out a side panel with window.

It's no big deal - I hate lights and cathodes but I do like to be able to see inside without the sides off.

My proposed purchase:

Lian Li PC-A05b
Corsair 520W (will mount with the fan facing upwards)
Silentmaxx HDD enclosure
2 120mm Yate Loon fans.
Thermalright HR03

EDIT: I can't find the Silentmaxx enclosure on OcUK, where the hell is it?
