Aluminium har varit chassitillverkaren Lian Lis adelsmärke under många år och nu har man lanserat vad man kallar ett klassiskt aluminiumchassi i miditower-format. Med klassiskt menar man en enkel och funktionell design som inte direkt bjuder på några överraskningar men som ska fungera till det mesta. Chassits högkvalitativa aluminiumfinish gör att prislappen trots allt hamnar på drygt 1000 kronor. Med chassit får man plats för två stycken 120mm fläktar, USB och ljudutgångar i frontpanelen samt tre interna 3,5-tums hårddiskplatsern. Chassit stöder mATX och ATX samt rymmer grafikkort med upp till 290mm i längd.

Lian Li launches PC-8N General Purpose Midi Tower Chassis
Classic Aluminum Chassis
30 July 2009, Keelung, Taiwan Lian-Li Industrial Co. Ltd has launched the PC-8N Mid Tower chassis ideal for PC systems. The hair-line brushed all aluminum chassis features advanced thermal dynamics, using one fan on the front (1x 120mm@1200RPM) to pump cool air into the chassis where it exhausts out the rear fan (1x 120mm@1200RPM). The 7x PCI expansion slots are vented and assist with airflow. The chassis front face has 4x 5.25ODD bays and a 3.5drive bay. The front face clips off easily and conveniently. The dimensions stand at 210x450x490mm (W, H, D). The top panel is removable and the entire system has smoothed edges, and an anti-vibration design.
General features
The chassis supports 4x 5.25 Optical drive bays with 1x 3.5 external. The HDDs have a specially designed cage that secures them snugly via thumb screw struts supported with rubber grommets. The entire cage secures the HDDs via a patented slider bar that secures all the HDDs simultaneously. The PC-8N midi case is for Micro-ATX or ATX motherboards and has 7 PCI expansion slots, which are well ventilated with special vented brackets when not in use. The top panel is removable with the multimedia I/O ports on the front panel consisting of 2x USB2.0 as well as HD+AC97 Audio. The PSU fits securely at the rear top of the chassis.
Thermal features
The engineers at Lian Li have optimized the airflow to enter from the front 120mm fan, directly cooling the HDDs and ODDs and thereafter refreshing the CPU region. The hot air generated by the CPU and GPU is directly extracted via the rear 120mm Fan which allow for silent operation. The volume of airflow is more than sufficient to keep your PC system cool and conveniently silent.
Traditional Durability
The classical stylish functional design is the Lian Li goal. The essence of Lian Li products is the craftsmanship of the engineering. Intrinsic to the workmanship and quality is the customization which includes a whole host of optional extras that can be purchased to add more features to an already feature rich product.
