Any way to maybe not mount powersupply in the bottom? I want to enclose off bottom slightly for a internal silent phase system.
And dunno what lian li, but definitly looks lian li ish.

If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.
True. It probably was a fluke that the side door caused the main body to twist. But the main reason I did not try a replacement is due to the overall impression that this case was no where near the build quality of my PC-6077, PC-7077 or PC-V1000.Originally Posted by justjeff
As I said, for the price it's not a bad deal if you get a good one, but I was expecting the quality of my other Lian Li cases.
i7/930 - Noctua NH-C12P
Rampage III Extreme - (2) evga 9800GTX
Corsair AX-1200 - 12GB PGS312G1600ELK

LG GGW-H20L Blu-Ray - Plextor PX-880SA - X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty
Silverstone TJ07 (mostly) Aluminum Case
OMFG.. seriously you guys who are getting them under $60... buy one for me please!.. it would still be cheaper than my local BB stores even with the high cost of shipping.. oh pretty please
I am seriously willing to pay someone to buy me one at that kind of price!!!
EDIT: and hey it just occurred to me, could you guys who are getting them under $60, post a scanned receipt so I can try and use it to get a price match at my local BB.
Im so mad at my local BB isnt willing to negotiate the dam price...

yep... I was actually going to PM some of you phase builders about this case but looks like you already got ahead of the game on this oneMe too, I've got a few phase ideas
Do post some pics when you get a phase unit inside one of these babys
off topic a bit: Is it bestbuy policy to price match another BB store in another state ?
reason I say this is because I have access to 3 BB stores ... 2 locally in my state and 1 in another state via a cousin of mine
If you're going to use the receipt posted to try to PM, please keep in mind the manager on duty has some latitude with their policies. If you tailor how you approach or pitch the PM you'll increase the odds the manager will make the PM happen. In other words don't be an @sshole. Even if you don't get the PM. Doesn't hurt to go back and try during a different part of the day or week and try another floor manager.
If I were going to try the PM I would first ask about their PM policy in general. Once you've established they do PM to any advertised price, ask if they will PM to a recent receipt rather than an advertisement. Then ask if they'll PM to another BB. Do not bother to mention the other BB is 14 states away. Then casually mention that your "friend" scanned his receipt for you to use. Try not to laugh when you notice the manager's reaction to the wholesale cost he sees when he looks up the sku number on your receipt.

I'm new to forums but lets see if I can't get my receipt on the thread...

Holy crap. I'm going to my local BestBuy tomorrow and checking to see if I can use that receipt on them. *smirks* This could be fun
There was only one in stock at my local store and at 8am I'm "leaving, on a jet plane...don't know when I'll be back again..." Actually I do know when, but point being. I can't help you out by checking other stores.OMFG.. seriously you guys who are getting them under $60... buy one for me please!.. it would still be cheaper than my local BB stores even with the high cost of shipping.. oh pretty please

Good luck man, I hope everyone wins out on this one.Holy crap. I'm going to my local BestBuy tomorrow and checking to see if I can use that receipt on them. *smirks* This could be fun
I'm not sure (other than the obvious shipping damage) why the one person was unhappy with the quality of the case. It seems rock solid to me. I'm replacing a PC-60, which obviously isn't their most expensive case, but my Rocketfish case is everybit as good. True it doesn't have an edge guard on it, but it also doesn't have the arching cover on the powersupply that becomes the frame for the 5.25 bays. No edgeguard, but the Rocketfish has all the edges are rounded. It would have been nice to have the lower powersupply blocked off, but hey...for $50, well I can mod and add a blockoff plate.
And it's HUGE!!! You could smuggle people across the border with this thing!!! No lie, they could use the fans to keep their bolognia sandwiches cool.
I went in to best buy to buy a TV tonight and thought I should walk by the cases to see if they had this one. Sure enough, and for $47! I don't even like full towers but $47 would be the same as getting a $20 case from newegg so why the hell not?
2 left in slo as of friday night. Oh and it didn't go through with the 10% off coupon, not that I was complaining much

Argued with manager! Wouldn't sell for less then halfway between 47.99 and 119.99. Eventually asked to see the price match policy and he caved.
$52 with a coke at Bridgewater, NJ Bestbuy!

Yeah. I got in on the $48 price as well. Very sweet deal. Wondering if I should go down the road to the next BB, but don't really need more cases at this point.

Just to point out after two PM's, yes these are lian li manufactured. Even the fans have the Lian Li Industrial Co., LTD. Sticker on them
