Actually (depending on cost, if it's anything up to the price of Lian Li's higher-end cases), it is practical. It has airflow like a monster. There's two giant 120mm fans that work to blow cold air into the HDD racks and pull hot air out. The distance the air has to travel is shorter than in most cases that size. Underneath that assembly is another giant 120mm fan that throws air at your main components, and the back is of it is perforated to reduce exhaust resistance. The PSU is isolated from the rest of the build, and there's a space above it that you could use for about any purpose.TopHat01 wrote:
Indeed, but I still wouldn't buy it, rather bulky looking, and it doesn't seem very practical, other than the ability to fit loads of HDDS and DVD drives...Jenspm wrote:
would be pretty cool in black tbh.
My only real complaint about aesthetics is that it doesn't have many effective 5.25 bays. Forget about any devices that take up two or three of them, and if you've got two disc drives, you're not going to be able to stick in stuff like Creative's 5.25 IO drive without looking down into its guts (unless LL bundled some frames) from the outside of the chassis. In all, I like the fans (even if they limit the 5.25 bays) but the curved front just doesn't seem to do it.
