does anyone have the PC7 and would they reccomend it?? is there anythin i should know about it before thinking about getting one?? any thoughts and comments appreciated...
I got one Pc-7 and Pc-60 and would have yo say I like the 7 better because of the price/value difference.....and I like the PC-7 bezel better anyway
Pros: The Price its soo cheap compaired to other lian li's Just as good as the pc 60 Front Bezel grill lights up brilliantly with a cold cathode or even leds Cons: no removeable motherboard tray you might not like the front bezel (not really a problem as the pc60's bezel fits anyway - so ive been told? Phire maybe you can tell me?) I like the Pc7 it is an excelent case and to be honest how manytimes to you take the motherboard out anyway? it go's in once and should saty there (you get alot less problems that way!) i modded mine and i got it to look bloody great except at the moment it not working but that is just a minor set back to top it all up i think the pc 7 is proberly the best case ive ever owned
Yuppers it fits...although it was awfully snug compared to the pc-7 but it has to do with how many times you take the bezel on and off. Just remember, dont take it of more than you have to, as mine is looser than I would like because of my constant on and off of it (not a problem, but my preference is a snug fit) best case I ever had!!!!
Is the PC7's bezel plastic? Where's the cheapest place to get one as i have found somewhere for £75 no psu. anywhere cheaper Thanks AW3K sorry for thread stealing
This might help, The PC-7 bezel made of plastic – are you kidding me??? Of course it’s not! (see pic for brushed haluminium finish) Read up on the many PC-60 reviews and take off the fan controller, mobo tray and front grill design and you have the PC-7. I personally think it’s the best looking out of all the Lian Li’s. Just make sure you get the latest model like the one I’ve got. Gone is the crappy plastic button surround and flying in, comes the new sexy haluminium badge. I’ve had the chance to physically compare both PC-7 and PC-60 and chose the PC-7. I thought it looked better and the loss of the mobo tray doesn’t hinder me. Mine cost £73 BTW. I also think that only coolermaster do a better looking case than mine but they are almost double in price. As for whoever mentioned lighting up the front grill…here’s mine in action. Oh yeah the top and side panels don’t come beige either, in case you haven’t noticed my PC-7 is in the middle of a project, LOL Hope this helps you.
cheers lazy... and yes i have seen that one...wanted to see what people have done with them, and what they look like with stuff inside...(new intel motto)
Thanks for the welcome Linear! I thought I'd take a pic to show you the front bezel in real light, not some artificial white room. I hope my pics show that the PC-7 is quality and far from "economic" as Lian Li market it.
LOL, I'm new to posting on the forums but I've been frequenting Bit-tech for about 2years now, so I know you're all cool. Besides, stop fighting - there's enuff of me to go round Still, thanks again.
welcome to the boards dude, and cheers for posting some pics... well seeing as i aint really bothered about the removable tray, i think ill go for one of these....what psu did you get to run with it??
Re: This might help, That was soooo my idea grrrr!!!!!!!! If only i had my digicam with me id so yoou my pics! btw cathode or leds? edit: i found a pic of my case sadly fl@mes has put a custom etch on it lol
Re: Re: This might help, i thought the lian-li pc-70 came with blue cathodes and blue leds seeing as evey single one i've ever seen looks like yours
Other differences between the cases are : Stealth top blow hole Thumb screws on the expansion slot things (don't know what they are actually called ) Bl00 LED for hard drive activity btw I also have a PC7 case for my second rig and it :rocks:
