Lian Li v2000 and v1200 thread

Pretty cases! Is there room to put cables behind the board plate?

[disruptfam]

you can invert the psu plate on the v2000 which puts the psu directly under the divider.

thank you

No, the motherboard tray is pretty much right up against the back panel. You could probably get SATA cables back there, and fan extensions for sure, but thats pretty much the limit I think.

Thanks, I'll keep waiting for Coolermaster's RC-690 then.

There's not room behind the motherboard to coil up extra unused leads but there's room to route all the motherboard cabling. I've fitted all the board connections to come through cuts behind the board in the smallest of the V- series cases. There's 10mm of space behind.

looks very nice rick_fx only thing i don't like is the un-sleeved psu cable's sleeving them or investing in a modular psu would clean up the case very nicely.Besides that looks awesome!!!

All that with only one pump? and a D5? Wouldn't a DDC be better with the restriction 3 rads and 4 blocks will give? Shouldn't it use more than one pump?

Have any pics of this? I'd very much like to see how you did it and try it myself. I could see maybe getting the 8-pin EPS cable back there, but I can't imagine the 24-pin would fit unless I unsleeved it and flattened it out a bit.

Yes i assume it would. but splitting into 2 loops with give the most benefit.
By the way that's not my pc....

cheers

Is that VGA an 8800gts ? IMHO , you will fry your card, need sinksk on VRM's and NVIO i'd say, i have an HR 03+ and it gets quite hot even with a fan blowing over the sinks...

Nice and clean setup BTW

yes, what you basically need to do is make a cut on the horizontal divider (that splits between MB tray area and the lower PSU and HDD cage area) and then also make some cuts on the MB tray or at the edge of the tray such that there is more clearance.

i've been able to fit my 24 pin and all my other cables behind the mb tray.

hmm... sorry i've got no pics...

I really like the way that 343 (is that the model?) fan grille blends in with the perf'ed front, very nice. Any thoughts on spray painting the inside framework black and maybe add those Lian-Li DVD bay covers? Or is the framework only visible in flash photography? I really like those cases, really searching for a reason to have 2 computers to make use of that pile of 'extra' parts...if I find one, the V-series is on the top of the list for a home for those.

Some nice rigs here... ive often considered grabbing a Lian Li... may well be my next case (between that and a Mountain Mods - depends on how much cash i have really!).

yes, i was seriously considering spray painting the internals but i counted too many rivets so i just gave up...

passed that case over to my bro and now i'm working on a new build based on CM Stacker 832... hope to have pics soon.

Geez, this thread soooo tempts me into buying a v2000b, if only I had the money....

[rsmaverick]
