Why not a normal cable for the PCI-E?.

• Too many hard-drive placement possibilities for a Mini-ITX system

I have to say that I never thought that would be a negative point for an mITX system. Why are more options a bad thing? If you want to cram in a ton of drives, you can. If you want to remove the hard drive cage and put in a long GPU you still have room for more drives elsewhere. In the mITX form factor there will always be tradeoffs when it comes to the available space for components and I don't see how giving the user the option of more drives with a shorter GPU or less drives with a longer GPU can be seen as a negative.

190mm GPUs? 319USD? Their own PCQ19 looks waaay better, has 240mm GPU support and is 50% cheaper... Nope, I guess I'll definitively wait for the Silverstone ML08


EDIT: I see it supports 300mm GPU without the drive cage. Still the price is too high even taking into account the 240mm radiator support. Should have been a $200-$250 case at most.

Its a bit pricey but very attractive to look at. Lian Li normally charge a lot for their cases so the price being that high is not something I did not see coming. I would have preferred a better price on it as it would be something cool to consider (Especially the whole lineup), however it does seem to have a nice robust feature set.

Yeah, I know that Lian-Li charges quite a bit for their cases (them being made of aluminium and all that) but this case just doesn't justify its cost IMO, considering the rest of their lineup.

$320 USD!!! Wow, somebody was seriously smoking their breakfast when they priced that sucker!!!

nice case but i dont like their internal layout, these many unused space that they could utilized than leaving it empty

I am wondering if this case would support two 120mm closed loop coolers. There are lots of new GPUs coming out with built in closed loop coolers, and as this case claims to support a single 240 mm radiator, I'm wondering if it would support both a CPU and GPU 120mm radiator in the top. Alternatively, is there room on the 140mm fan slot for a 140mm radiator and fan?

I think you would need to contact Lian-Li Tech support directly to be sure, you would need to give them actual dimensions of specific items with mountings, I suspect not but that's the best way to be sure.
