Very nice PC case. I purchased one of these about 8 months ago, and it was an excellent buy. Expensive but really is a neat little case which is very easy to transport about. Even managed to cram a 6990 in there with a slight bit of modification to the hard drive bays. Was running a watercooled rig in it aswell. Tight fit but smart case.
Once you install a nice side panel in it it really comes alive, and makes it look that much nicer. I am trying to find some pictures of my rig when it was installed.

That was quite frustrating. The forum homepage just shows "Lian Li launches the all new... ", so I was expecting an article on a new series of LiLi cases... :(

The topic of discussion is a question that has been asked or enquiry that has been made, and you have some useful information to add to the thread or a link to share etc, so that people searching for solutions to the problem in question in the future have as much help as they need without posting another thread.
Bumping old threads on a forum is not ok when:
The thread is a discussion about an old topic, an old piece of hardware, an old review or something that is no longer in existence.
Forum etiquette 101 ;)
[Also, @chrismarkham1982, you gained absolutely nothing by starting your sentence with the letter "y" instead of the word "why". You didn't even use a capital letter?! Please, use words to form sentences, not individual letters ]

If you think complaining about me correcting you is going to make me stop correcting you, you're wrong. As longweight said, I'm just concerned about the readability of the forum. It only takes a few people to start posting with absolutely no punctuation or grammar for the forum to become an unreadable mess (to someone who knows what good English reads like that is). I'm not trying to be superior and I don't think that I am. People think me being a "grammar Nazi" is funny and it did start out as a joke but honestly, I am trying to stop bit-tech from becoming the sort of uneducated, unreadable forum that I have seen many times in the past. In particular, some car forums that I've been on recently are ridiculously hard to read, because each and every post is either from someone whose first language is not English, or a UK member who doesn't post with proper English.
Capital letters usually indicate the start of a sentence which helps people read quickly and it also stops a paragraph from looking like a mass of continuous text.
It doesn't take much effort to use correct spelling and punctuation, I make an effort to do so and if I am not sure then I try to find out if I am wrong.
Unicorn isn't better than you but he is right in this instance and you shouldn't dismiss spelling and grammar as not being important.
Remember that the only thing people can judge your forum post on is how you present it. You could have a very valid point but if you use letters instead of words and don't capitalise the start of a sentence then I am sure people will think less of your post.
