Lian Li 6070A

The Lian Li offering follows the same tried and true pattern as every Lian Li before it. The chassis is a simple affair, with no attempt at fancy tool free devices beyond the provision of thumbscrews. The noise reduction claims that the case makes on the box should not be taken too seriously, since the case only sports 3 pieces of sound deadening foam, compared with the 16 that the Acousticase uses.

These thin layers of foam on the side panels and roof will only suffice to compensate for the very thin aluminium used for the panels themselves. The PC-6070A uses the standard Lian Li cooling set up, with a single Adda 80mm fan at the rear and two at the front. It does not include the 3 speed switch for the front fans which most Lian Li models have. The only front panel connectors are a pair of USB ports.

The front panel door is a single chunk of solid aluminium, and opens and closes with a satisfying clunk. The 6070A may be short on fancy features, but the build quality is excellent, and the simple styling is very appealing. At £140.98 inc VAT, this is one of the more expensive cases in the group test. The 6070A is not good value for money, but it is worth every penny if its good looks take your fancy.
