Chassis of Full-Tower form-factor usually have solid framework due to the layout scheme and the necessity to enclose a lot of components. Developers from Lian Li company have totally demolished the current tendencies and announced the release of their PC-V750 Full-Tower model with the front-end PSU localization. This allowed the designers to dramatically decrement the size of the chassis without sacrificing its capacity and general specifications. The compact size of the chassis is considered to be a kind of ‘revolution’ in the market, since it is compatible not only with ATX and microATX motherboards, but also with Extended-ATX boards.



Lian Li PC-V750 casing is made of aluminum and approximates 7.35 kg in weight. Its dimensions provide for the installation of massive CPU-coolers (up to 170 mm in height), up to ten expansion cards, including 380 mm 3D cards. The chassis is equipped with five fans of 120 mm each: the two fans are located on the front plate, the other two – …

The SilverStone RVZ01-E model has been further developed into the compact Raven RVZ03 (SST-RVZ03B) sample with the awesome appearance due to its full-colour backlighting.



The new chassis holds a mini-DTX or a mini-ITX system card, an ATX power supply unit and up to four 2.5-inch drives. At the same time, it offers enough space for 330 mm expansion cards (including those, taking two slots). The maximum allowable height of the CPU cooling device is equal to 83 mm, the power unit length – 150 mm. However, the manufacturer suggests using 140 mm (or shorter) power sources with modular wiring systems and flatform cables.


In this case, which can be oriented vertically or horizontally, two 120 mm fans with the 1,500 rpm rotary speed are already installed and the third one can be also mounted.


The I/O panel has a couple of USB 3.0 ports, as well as jacks for a mic and headphones. The case, costing 98 EUR, weighs 4.05 kg and possesses the 382 x 105 x 350 mm dimensions.

Introduction

The Cooler Master Company has become popular due to its successful line of HAF cases. HAF means High Air Flow – this technology provides a good ventilation scheme. Cases of this line have transparent panels and nothing blocks the air. The 200 mm fans hold the needed temperature.

Being in great request in 2014 the technology has moved from one model to another. The case we are talking about today is not from this very line, but still is very close.
