The incredible Lian-Li 343B is now back in stock. I bought mine from FrozenCPU, but the case is the same price everywhere. However, I ended up buying accessories from just about every online shop that caries them in order to save on costs and shipping.

Currently in stock at the following:
Performance-pcs
Frozencpu
Xoxide

That looks like a Supreme server case..I have a Lian-Li and the construction is just top notch

FrozenCPU is literally 5 minutes down the road from where I live..great showcase they got there and glad they aren't far :D

Me neither. :(

I finally got fed up not being able to splurge on a super nice case. I did the next best thing though, I got a NZXT Rouge (http://www.frozencpu.com/products/6730/cst-644/NZXT_Rogue_Crafted_Series_SFF_Gaming_Chassis_-_Black_-_Red_LED.html?tl=g1c7s429&id=iFq23tdb) from FCPU for $150 and it'll fit a PA120.2 w/YL's and maybe even a thin rad like BIP/MCR w/YL's on the other side, very nice mATX case indeed. I'll be putting my E6300 w/Fuzion and PA120.2 in this case in the not too distant future, just need to knock out 2 other current builds first.

I am hoping they stay in stock until the end of the month, this is the only case I would replace my Stacker STC-T01 with.

I like how that case looks like.. do you have a pic with everything installed?

Nope, sorry. I've only just started to tinker with it.

I can say that no matter what brand rad you use, only one fan will be able to mount the rad to the side panel. If someone was clever enough and had the need, I think this case might actually fit 3 loops, it'd be really tight and the temps probably wouldn't be great, but I think it could be done. Just to give you some clue as to how well laid out this case is, with one of these (http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&manufacturers_id=128&products_id=21281&zenid=be126c52991c3d4a267ec8a8fc2cc868), I can fit 7 HDD's and 1 optical drive into this case if I air cooled it. I can fit 5 HDD's and 1 optical if I single loop it and I can fit 3 HDD's and 1 optical if I dual/triple loop it. The only caveat is it's a mATX case which doesn't bother me in the least 'cause that's all I build. :D

Dang! Nice Case. This is the one I wanted, but got tired of waiting for it to come into stock, so ordered the Silverstone TJ10 ... may just eat the 15% restocking fee and send it back.

There is at least one worklog here with a triple loop. I'd search for it, but am on slowwwww connection.

Cancelled a mountainmod to get this. Damn thing came in stock a day after I ordered the UFO. Quality wise, the MM's doesn't hold a candle to it. Everything lines up perfectly on the LL. I had a MM case and noticed the PCI cards doesn't go all the way into the PCI slots caused by poor alignments of the removable board tray on the MM. Had to sell it. Just recieved the LL yesterday and man its not just hype.

Damn you, MoreGooder. You just cost me a pretty penny. Just ordered my 343B from Performance PC's with lots of options. But, I know I'll be happier with this case, because, even though I'm going air initially --- I feel water coming on soon...

Thanks so much for posting your thread!

Damn. Its tempting to pick one of these up but I'd have to sell my UFO first.

I don't think selling ur UFO would be a problem as thats a very desirable case as well.

Well I'd have to see about that. Right now, believe it or not, Im having space problems fitting my MD20 into my UFO. So my options are a new case or new pump. A new pump should definitely be more cost effective ;)
