Lian Li v2000 and v1200 thread

[[XC]Atomicpineapple]

Thanks for the info.
I like the color scheme, looks pretty tidy too, considering the amount of cables. Did you make the reservoir mounts? And how's the PA120.3 handling two quads and the 8800?

Temps around 45 Deg C on all cores running WCG, GTS around the same temp when gaming/3D Mark. Res mounts are all standard stuff although I am using a Swiftech bracket to hold the EK Res clip in place. Wires could do with a tidy, I do love those builds where you cant see any cables, but just doesnt seem to happen for me, guess I just have too much stuff in there!

one 120m single one twin 120m and the new quad 120m from vadim

Thanks for that... how well do they perform? Also, I take it by Vadim you mean the blast flow ones, as that is all I can see on their website other than the thermochills:

http://www.vadim.co.uk/Components/Wa...ling/Radiators

If so they are 120mm wide, and the Thermochills are 126mm wide. Do u recon there is enough space to get the thermochill's in there?

[disruptfam]

maybe a 120.2.... you can fit a 120.3 if you take out the psu thing (the thing that the psu sit's on) the thermochill 120.3 will hit it need to remove it to fit that size rad... and mount the psu high....

[monitorkeeper]

i couldn't say. but if you take the psu mount out then the psu wont get the air flow it need for the fan under neath it...

[MikeMK]

I think disruptfam meant to mount the PSU in the higher slot by revesing the back plate. That way you keep air circulation as much as poss, but can mount the tripple underneath it.

[disruptfam]

Hey, monitorkeeper, great job there mate. What rads have u got sat in there. Are they at GTX480 & 240? Just wondering, cos I want to fit a thermochill PA120.3 & a PA120.2 in exactly that arrangement, and I have a galaxy PSU too, I was just concerned about the heighet of the bottom compartment.

you will not fit 2 thermochills in the bottom section..... way 2 big

i measured the bottom to the middle divide and you have 240mm to work with.... height wise

I ran into the same problem with my bigger rads awhile back...if you think you can squeeze them in you wont I've already tried lol

this is on the v2000 by the way

sorry dude

[disruptfam]

monitor keeper what temps r u getting with that setup???

[Bl4ck^!]

well, i have ABIT AB9PRO, it has heatpipes on the chipset , it's mounted upside down and i didn't noticed ANY kind of cooling performance drop. That should take care of the "urban legend" with upside down heatpipes

Anyway i don't have that kind of "problems" , share your thoughts guys

Bah... its a right pain is that... and probably means I have to go for a TJ07, even though I prefer the look of the V2000. Only other option would be to fit them one in front of the other, rather than one on top of the other I guess. Not sure what that would do to airflow though.

[TRG]

I really need to get a v2000

[monitorkeeper]

disruptfam.... It depends on how warm the room is. On ave i get cpu 32c... gfx 40c. at the mo.. but it changes with the weather. cpu never goes above 38c and gfx never goes above 56c on max load

[Grinch]

if anybody is interested in a Lian Li PC-V2000B Plus Full Tower ATX Case...pm me...*-)

[Frankenchrist]

I just got a PC-V2000 and I was wondering if the power switch is:
a. easily removed without scratching anything
b. the same size as the bulgin/vandal style switches that they sell at xoxide, and frozen cpu

The cord is a 3 pin adapter and the mobo just has a two pin so I thought I would get an illuminated switch to spruce it up a bit.

Anyone?

[MikeMK]

Hmm... thats an interesting quesiton, cos I have 2 bulgin switches right here, and may well do the same thing when i get my case if they fit!

[Frankenchrist]

They seem like they would fit- the only thing that might be a problem is that the Lian-Li switch may be smaller? It's hard to say because the case is so damn huge it may just appear smaller . So when are ya getting your case? I'm curious to find out if they'll fit without use of a dremel or file.

[Frankenchrist]

Where have all the v1000/ 2000 owners gone?

[jinu117]

one of my customer has done such modification for V2000 with Vandal switch. I am sure it is easy modification I would more worry about reset swtich as there is none :P

[Frankenchrist]

Did your customer's mod require a dremel or other such tools? I'm just trying to see what I'm in for.

[Jedda]

The Bulgin is 19mm hole, same as V series Lian Li.
You can source a Lian Li reset switch from PerfPC if you want to add a reset that matches.
I used the one on my second half as a reset.

[marcus000]

This is a build i've just completed for a customer...






:-)

[disruptfam]

wow that's nice marcus....

is that panel laser cut? and what rads are you using?

[marcus000]

Yeh the panel was lasered and acrylic fitted for the window then mesh behind the text.

Rads are Black Ice 240 GTS in the roof and an XSPC R120-D in the bottom.

So when you say 19mm hole, that hole will accomodate a 22mm switch, 'cause that's what all the vandal's on PerfPC's are...I'm assuming the 22mm refers to the widest point of the switch.

[marcus000]

Very nice job. Do you have any pics of the GTS mounted in the roof?

I do indeed.

[Dark Prodigy]

Ok, that dual plate is pretty cool.
