    Here are two cases both bu Lian Li and at two very different prices. apart from the very obvious front mesh difference I am wondering how one justifies the £70 price difference.

    The cases are:

    Lian Li PC-V600FA With Lian Li page here.

    Lian Li PC-A04A Lian Li page here.

    Different tooling for the case, the V series one is more of a wrapped single piece chassis where the A series is several pieces bolted together.
    Thats the main one i can see

    So not worth the extra 70 quid I feel?

    I think the V600FA has an internal header for the USB 3.0 rather than passthrough cables but an adapter will sort that for you. I certainly can't see why it's almost double the price...

    Cheers George,it was my intention to buy the thing this week but I was looking around and came across the other one and I thought wait a minute. So my build bill has dropped considerably as I have also decided that the Gene -V mobo is also over the top.
