Computex Wrapup: Lian Li makes their aluminium cases even better!

Lian Li are one of those component manufacturers that in the enthusiast world you simply have to mention, and most everyone will know exactly what you're talking about.

Synonymous with high-quality cases, their thoughtful (mostly all-aluminium) designs are already some of the best out there - but Lian Li decided to beat themselves at their own game!

Their booth at Computex showed off a brand new tooless latching system for expansion cards, made completely from metal and even working with dual-slot graphics cards.

They also showed off a tooless power supply latching 'buckle', a new gate-like latching system for securing HDDs and some great new ways of putting a case together.

With so much to look at, simply jump into the gallery of pics to read and see more about Lian Li's cases!

Do you like the look of the new features? Post below with your opinion!

Lian Li manufactured PC-B25F in Taiwan. The quality and craftsmanship are outstanding. With accolades and awards stretching back for the last two decades due to the unique combination of hand-crafted aspects with advanced machinery. The complete effort used to create every Lian Li chassis is clearly evident in the superior craftsmanship to be found in each one.

The hardware installation with PC-B25F is very easy and simple. The front panel and top panel are detachable and they can be removed without tools.

The new PC-B25F is a mid-tower case, which is ideal for the latest graphics cards in combination with the best thermal dynamics.Easily adjustable to optimize your hardware setup. Especially in the advent of adding in new graphics cards, equipped with 8 PCI slots, can hold three or more graphics cards, supports CrossfireX™ and 3-way SLI™.

The new internal layout has the motherboard on top of the power supply unit, which allows for easier access to the motherboard as well as more room above, thus larger CPU coolers can be used. The power supply unit at the button of the case is cooled with fresh cool air directly from the outside of the case, instead of pre-heated air from within. This will bring down the core temperatures and extend the lifespan of the PSU significantly.
