Was poking around LL's site and I spotted this case: The A03 Similar In size to the A05 Model PC-A03 Case Type Mini Tower Dimensions 188mm x 368mm x447mm (W,H,D) Model PC-A05A / PC-A05B Case Type Mini Tower Dimensions 210mm x 381mm x 490mm (W,H,D) It's shorter, and slimmer in all directions. Plus with the psu exhausting out the top rear it should help with the GPU heat build up in the a05. Additional features include tool-less 5.25 inch bays So far the only thing I'm not really digging is the 92mm fan on the back.
Ooh.. I'd rather have one of those than a P180 mini! However, i'd rather have a V350 over this aswell!
I really don't care for the front on that thing. The floppy drive spot is a waste of space (you could argue it's good for a fanbus or something, but most people with a mini-ATX board won't be bothering with that kind of thing) and that whole fan vent thing is too huge. I like the innards though. It could do well to hold a couple more hard drives, but I say that about every case out there.
I prefer the A05 personally. The exterior on this isn't as clean as the A05 and the interior looks cluttered and not as well laid out.
It can take a full size atx motherboard which is handy. For the floppy space one of these hot swaps would be cool with 2 ssds. I also agree that the front fan needs some work. However I do like that they were able to shrink the entire size of the case and move the PSU up top without too many modifications. Even though I have an a05 for myself and my parents I might just pick one of these up for fun. Edit: Lian-li claims it supports regular atx, looking at the picture I'm not sure how it's possbile.
