News on the new Lian Li's

Love the looks of the V300.

I want to see closer pics of where the CPU HSF is going to be in the case though. Pics from inside. The PSU looks very close to it.

I hope they arn't gonig to cost an arm an a leg

v300 and S80 are the two that have not got through most retail channels yet.

Typical that two of the three cases I want to see are the ones that take a age to come into stock.

Thats just sods law

Hope it comes soon, got cash waiting for it!! If it doesnt, i'll spend it on something else i dont really need. lol

Yewen · 3 May 2006 at 14:22

Just wait, it can not be long now!

/prays.

I have had v1000's as my main rig for a couple of years, that is insane for me as I used to switch every couple of months!

S80 is the only case I consider a possible upgrade from the S80, the TJ07 was a complete failure in my eyes, again this is my opinion but I think it is one of the biggest rip offs made; stacker but in aluminium giving you temps that only look good in figures. Also a £200 case should not have issues, same with my disgust at buying a v1000.

Thank god for the V1000+; I just hope they get the S80 right first time, it took them 5 years to get the PC7 perfect mind.

Ive had a couple of Lian Li's in the past, PC60 and 65, PC37 and PC50 i did want a full tower but always shyed away when i saw the price

Seeing as im moving to a smaller room in the house, i need to cut things down a bit... think the V300 is going to be perfect... The Sugo is nice but its just not floating my boat at all!

Yewen · 3 May 2006 at 14:33

The drive bays out of each side eman the v300 will be tubby, but under the desk as a server box for me personally that one has me drooling, the hard drive potential in a case of its style is phenominal!

Mountain Mods of the mATX world

I like the look of the V300 too, one shop had said hopefully May, but no idea when in May.

Hope we don't have to wait longer for the black version too.

cant say im a fan tbh, im not knocking your work you have put into it, but to me it looks "cheap" dont know why but thats the feeling i get looking at that case.

Click to expand...

Im not knocking the work effort too, but I know where your coming from mate. I prefer the sleek black version - there is no way I would EVER want it ginger!

Mr Jones · 28 Jun 2006 at 14:48

Only reason that case is "Ginger" is because Copper is that colour

beh · 28 Jun 2006 at 16:05

Still waiting on the S80

Its looking more perfect each time I read a new review of it.

Herminator · 28 Jun 2006 at 16:21

I'm now waiting on a V300b.....

....hopefully it will arrive before I have to fly home next Monday.

Next I have to get some money so I can buy the bits to go inside the case :rolleyes:

I already knew that thanks.

Copper is a nice way of saying "Ginger!"

Ruined the case imo.

Not just you, have you seen it in person as my gosh its a beauty! I even want it in black!

And the copper Lian Li looks great to me, its not over doing it, the shine is what makes that case so imagine it with a 201b style shine.

(Although anodised not painted)

I'm a orient with "Copper" dyed hair, so am I the likes of Annie Robinson yet?

I don't see why people are waiting for the V300. Granted it looks nice but rather inpractical to have the CD slots on the side?

Nixeh · 28 Jun 2006 at 23:36

I have a v300 getting here on saturday.

The slots are on both side but it doesnt mean it can house 4 drives. you can have them either on the right or on the left.

The impractability of the floppy caddy blocking any 9" graphics cards is annoying, but i plan to dremel that off.

Ill put a post up of it when i move my system into it.

Nitrix · 29 Jun 2006 at 08:14
