Final Thoughts


Being such a big chassis I was expecting this build to be quite demanding, but it actually took me no longer than 20 minutes to get everything in place. The motherboard may not be the biggest this chassis can handle and the extensive cable management is capable of handing almost any motherboard size we throw at it.

Airflow is superb throughout the chassis and with three fans in the front and two fans on the left side panel pulling air in there is no doubt that our components will have plenty of fresh air, the use of BitFenix Alchemy cables keeps things looking clean and tidy too, complimenting the high contrasting black and silver look of the chassis interior.

Hard drive installation was super easy too. Screw on the metal hard drive handle with some large screws and it slides into the precision cut locking rails we looked at earlier. Lian Li even sell a hot-swap adaptor bracket to make things even better, very handy if you plan on changes hard drives a lot. The SSD mounting was easy too, just four special screws with rubber washed and it pushed into the pre-cut mounting holes.

Here we can see that I’ve mounted the Corsair H100i and it fits perfectly without conflicting with memory, or the optical bays.

Water cooling is of course one option and you could easily fit some epic air coolers in here, more importantly you can fit two large CPU coolers should you choose to install a dual socket motherboard. Below that there is enough room for a huge array of expansion cards, this case is obviously capable of holding four dual socket graphics cards with ease.

Side panels back in place the chassis looks absolutely immense, and despite its gargantuan size it somehow still manages to look and feel professional.
