Wonder how much this thing costs though

it costs about €300 in europe, and there are no us/canada shops that stock it yet.
this thing is my next case, i have been thinking of how to get the money ever since i first saw it a few months ago. thanks for the review link btw, i havent seen it before.

First got a link to this app 2-3 months ago from konsl..
As a Lian Li lover and someone who likes cubes this thing grabbed my eye.
As others said here, not available in the USA or Canada, just in Europe.
Best price I could find on it was in the mid $300's..
add what it would take to get it to the US and your talking $500.00+..

its a nice start for lian li cases.
now all we need is for the price to drop a little.

but not bad for lian li overall.

no place for a dual or triple rad :(

those were my thoughts exactly, it looks to me like all the 120mm mounts are too far apart for radiator mounting...

i'll stick to mountainmods, unless LL manages to realize their err and adjust it to fit our needs better.

EDIT: on the other hand, that case might be a BETTER option for all those air-cooling people next door ;)

You can use up one whole side of bays for a 120.3....

I still find MM a better case but it's nice to have an alternative cube here in Europe... :)

Looks big enough for a tomato planting mod. ;)

Id prefer the lian li over the MM. I just love that clean look. MM is too flashy for me.

Can't go wrong with Lian cases. QUality all over. That thing just from the pics alone seems more solidly built than the MM cases. I own a MM, I feel it could have been better built and executed for the price. I still love it though!

So roughly $350 for it?

norway is really expensive. here it cost 335ish. but thats before adding tons of extra stuff!:D

Can be had for 279€ in Germany.
Shame that no fan filters or drives cages are included with the case (like all the other LL cases) and that they have to be bought seperately, so that the total price goes up pretty fast (around 350-400€).

jup, but thats why its so "cheap". seeing its cheaper than v2000, v1200, s80, 201...

its a nice case, but all the accessories you have to buy (ie. HD bays) for it jack the cost up to even more absurd levels. would *definitely* take a MM over this any day of the week purely on functionality.

I 100% agree, the MM is cheaper, and is ready for watercooling. It even comes in a few colors. and its powder coated and its black all over, not just on the outside.

in the usa, the MM is cheaper, but not here in europe. plus, i think this lian li looks great, while the mm looks a bit rough.

That case was designed at the request of microplex by lian li. i dont think it will be avalible anywere over here for quite a while :(
