LIAN LI ARMORSUIT PC-P50 Black Computer Case
Cons:
CPU heatsink backplate hole not large enough and/or properly placed for my Rampage III (all LGA1366?) in order to install backplate without removing motherboardDrive cage doesn't slide in and out smoothly (very minor complaint)
Pros: LooksTool-less everything that actually work wellStock fan are quieter than most stock fansMuch lighter than steel cases Comment:
Love this case for it's looks and tool-less design that actually works and really well.My biggest complaint is the size and/or placement of the hole in the motherboard for accessing the CPU backplate. This was a big want for me as I didn't want to have to remove my motherboard to change CPU heatsink. Well, with my Rampage III I had to throw that idea out the window when I put in my Coolit ECO. I wonder if this is a problem for all LGA1366?Because of that I dock 1 star. |
Just finished putting my build together. I have been eyeballing this case for a while now. Since I got a Lian-Li case for a friend's build and loved his so much, I had to get one too. The cable management system was simple. I normally hate tool-less designs but this one actually works well. The PSU lock is pretty sweet, the 5.25 bay locks work great, the expansion port locks didn't get in the way of my dual slot GPU cooler. All worked well. The fans slide on and off easily. Even came with thumb screws for mounting the motherboard. Another thing I like are all the sound dampening materials they use. Rubber grommets and pads keep the noise down. I picked this case because I will eventually use it for a NAS file server/caching proxy. I needed a case with enough 5.25 bays so I could throw in a couple hot swap racks. Once I can afford a RAID card and a couple more 2TB hard drives, I'll be in business.
