When I take the side panel off the case temps drops a few degrees but the cpu only drops slightly. I have tried re-seating the alpha but this made no difference :( I think I might have a go at the passive option. what filter did you use on the link you posted? Was it a car filter? If it is a car fil...

Hi Bluefront I was thinking about removing the Lian Li Cage and possible putting in a passive intake either underneath the drive near the front or towards the middle of the case. (but as ever I have not made up my mind yet!) Other than that its a great case to work with! I was thinking about getting...

My Lian Li 6070...new kit update

Hiya Guys Just a little note about my new case. I eventually bit the bullet and bought this case as (imo) is the best looking case out there. So here is what I have done so far. It still needs some more work but it now runs cooler and quieter than before 8) After all the posts in here about the lack...

All colours absorb and emit energy equally so it doesn't matter. To make it a bit more clear I mean that black absorbs and emits equally, while silver absorbs and emits equally, but at a different level with the net effect being the same.

I think it's a damn shame that such a great looking case with plenty of external drive bays should be plagued by seemingly poor airflow and vibration noise, although at least one person has said airflow and temps are not a problem. The easiest solution, I think, is having the case made of steel and...

Thanks for the quick reply Ralf

Do you think the blocks would make much difference in the empty 5" bays?
I cannot tell buy ear if they make any difference at all other than to take up internal space :?

Hi guys I have the deluxe kit from acoustipac and want to ask your opinions about the foam blocks that come with the kit. these are designed to put in your empty drive bays.

I mounted the 3 new nexus fans with the Vantec Dampener Kit. I think any possible way to lower the vibrations are necessary for this case. . I have seen these as well. Do they make much difference?

Hmmm. one question with your temps

How can your cpu be cooler than your case temp? My case temp is always higher than ambient and the cpu and gpu are higher than the case temp :?

Have I got this wrong??

Although I have hidden my spare cables behind the motherboard tray (which is a bit tight because of the sound proofing) and above my top cd bay

I just need to find a neater way of running the fan cable from my ZM80C-HP+optional fan :(
