Lian-Li TYR PC-X2000 *NEW*Wc'ing opinions

[disruptfam]

What could us watercoolers do with Lian-Li's new TYR PC-X2000

Post you opinions:

The case









I can see a mcr320 fitting in the front there's a start

[jadeskye]

i think just from the tube grommets in the back, lian li expected this to be used as an external radiator case. that said, theres a lot of potential.

the sheer size of this case would allow for mounting 2 or maybe even 3 tripple rads on the exterior.

[disruptfam]

mcr320 in the front mcr220x2 maybe and a mcr120 i can see that fitting internally as for the thermochills and feser's im not sure

This case just won sexiest case award.

I was curious when I saw the external pictures in their ads awhile ago. But damn. The internal shots are amazing.
It'll require a ton of modding though.

Only thing I have a gripe about is the fan cutout in the back. it's a rounded corner square and not a circle like all their other cases. oh well. I'm over it.

[biftek.]

Depending on the length of the case, you might be able to tightly fit a triple in the bottom and top.
But all the angled shots make it hard to tell...

@Disruptfam

Bro I'm waiting your case pass that Ugly case

[septim]

probably removed the 80mm fans though...

[yngndrw]

A kind of tour around the case: http://www.lian-li.com.tw/v2/en/prod...s_index=61&g=q

Hmm, what size are the pipe gromets ? Big enough for 1/2"ID ?

[chiguy]

Maybe a 480GTX with some modding for the front. More modding to replace the 80mm fans with 120s maybe?

[MasterChiefElmo]

good gad man that case is huge is it the pictures or is that sucker that tall?!?!!?! but it dose look sexy maybe put 2 of them together one for hardware and one for all the water cooling goodies with a custom acrylic made piece to separate it and have led's light it up...ooooo ahhhhh


just a few ideas from a nub tho.

[step]

I can sense the power cables for the HDD's causing some people headaches.

If only they could of made the V2000 that tall and have a black interior.

[bball4ever39]

Well they are hot swappable, so maybe they have a longer cable to accept that sata power. If not its not hard to get something to extend it to reach down there. I mean it seems like lian li has thought of everything else in that case, I'm sure they have an easy solution for it.

At first view it seems like its some massive case, volume wise its a good bit less than a v2000 though.

Just very shallow and taller, almost like a mozart, very compartmentalized as well.

[twwen2]

Looks absolutely stunning!
Pity about the 140mm fans and the layout though, makes things difficult for those of use who are hesitant to take a blade to a ~$300 case...

[Carey]

Loving that. I wonder how long it will be for the 140mm case fan standard to push. What a beautiful case from the outer, plenty of options inside. Any ideas on the price?

[septim]

i'd like the simpler look of a a77 case.

320 up front, 2x 220s top and bottom with mods...

[fungry]

That case is amazing!. Wow... Definitely a great case if you have the side panel facing towards you. That way the optical drives are still facing you. Love it.

[NoobCake]

Damn thats really nice how Lian Li are making them 140mm fans.

very nice once those 140mm rads come in, gives you that extra option

[[XC] NetburstXE]

Ugly

[madmaxx]

nice case, not for L/C

[[XC] NetburstXE]

nice case, not for L/C

Why do you say it's not for liquid cooling?

[YugenM]

That case is bloody huge.

But I guess there are people out there who like huge cases...

[bball4ever39]

It actually has a smaller volume than a v2000, or rocketfish, but quite a bit. It's much shallower.

Just need a custom shroud for the front for those 140mm fans to a 3x120mm rad
