Today is the day I publish my first review :slight_smile: so let me have it!

http://www.hardwareforums.com/content-view/lian-li-modular-cube-case-1-12167/

so let me know what you think, as well as any questions you may have?

That is one sweet case - it seems like the kind of case that’s had lots of thought put into it, having things in different sections makes sense. I reckon it’d make a nice ‘lil’ server case with all that drive space and dual PSU adapter.

Just think: get a phase change cooling system setup in that sucker, and you could keep a small keg chilled in there.

I like the way Big B thinks!

Good review Sniper :good:

I haven’t seen anything quite like that case before. It’s the perfect cross between a high performance server case and a customisable gaming machine.

It looks enormous in those pictures. I bet a family of four could use it as a dinning table!

BTW, you haven’t told us how much it costs? :stuck_out_tongue:

I think you might have missed the part which said “All high quality pictures courtesy of microplex.no.” :slight_smile:

I will post a few of mine later today.

edit: cost ÂŁ200 inc delivery I think.

Whoops :slight_smile:

Very good review Sniper…how long did it take you to write that?

An amazing case, and almost perfect for my media server needs if it wasn’t for one major flaw, which frankly baffles me - no E-ATX (12" x 13") support for server and workstation (most dual CPU) motherboards :frowning:

Anyone know if they’re planning on releasing a model which does support E-ATX?

Hi Kuni D

I asked microplex, they said someone had contacted them with the same question and got this asnwer.

The Cube will fit some e-atx motherboards, but not all. Therefore we have chosen to not call it e-atx compatible.

The reason for this is that the extra space and design changes needed to accomodate the e-atx standard 100% would make the case much less practical in other areas, quite a bit larger and pricier…
