Lian Li Case

[starsarethebest9]

Hi Everyone I heard that Lian Li has a case called the Lian Li A05 Infinity and wanted to see if anyone had pictures of it.  I am trying to a build and I want to see what it looks like before I decied on what case I am going to use.

if you searched the name and were not able to find anything on it, then its either a case out of date, one that hasnt been made yet or the name have changed to something else.

 

looking at a lot of lian li cases, i will never get one of theirs because 95% of their cases are all the same basic design. temepered glass all the way around causing very limited airflow and would be hot running because of it.

You might be thinking of the InWin 805 Infinity?

The only Lian Li A05 was a case from over 10 years ago that I had. Very old.

that is why i said 95% of their cases. but its more like 75% as there are 3 on the site out of the 12. some might have options for mesh but as they look in the pics only a few have it. the 

• Lancool-II-Mesh-Performance

• Lancool-II-Mesh-rgb

Would you help me out? I'm trying to decide between the Corsair 4000D or the Lian Li Lancool II Mesh RGB, I'm upgrading from an Aerocool Cylon Pro.

So I want a Lian Li Case and I am going to be doing a water cooled build.  I will be water cooling the motherboard, the cpu and the gpu.  I also want to have the case custom painted.  I am going with a Medium size case what do you guys recommend.  I will also be showing off the PC when I stream.

if you are going to be watercooling then i suggest a case with mesh or air in the name for lian li. the other cases seem like they are good for cooling but limiting spots where air can get into the case restricts those same places more when you add the thickness of the water cooling raditor to the mix. if you are going with a lian li medium size case, the bottom 6 cases would be good to start out with but what size radiator? 120mm, 240? 140? 280? etc. etc. the same size for the fans is the same size for the radiators.

these guys are biased when it comes to airflow cases.
