Lancool Metal Boned K7

Introduction

I would like to thank CaseKing.de for supplying the review sample.

CaseKing is one of the few companies out there, which will not just sell anything. They only offer hardware that performs well and is of high quality. The shop carries quite a few exclusive parts and devices from all around the world and it is also the official distributor for a long list of well known manufacturers. Their assortment has grown substantially in recent years, while great service and support is still a very important part of the shop philosophy. The website may be in German, but due to great demand, an English version is in the works.


We have the pleasure of taking a look at the Lancool Metal Boned K7 today. The Lancool brand is from Lian-Li and denotes cases which are meant for gamers and LAN party participants. These enclosures feature the same type of understatment and clean aluminum exterior and interior innovations found in the more expensive Lian-Li cases, but utilizes steel for the interior structure. This makes the cases cheaper and stronger, but also adds a little bit of weight. Certainly a very interesting combination.
