Lian Li are no strangers to the scene. Under their belt they have acquired countless awards for excellence and apart from one other brand have a rich product line of all aluminium chassis. We have had the pleasure of taking a look at various Lian Li cases in the past and have been impressed and today we turn to a new release to see if their reputation can be trusted once again. Back in June Lian Li announced the PC-A05FN, a mid-tower chassis with a different take on how we look at layout and airflow. Today we take a look at this new case and reveal its strong points and its weak points. Will a reversal on the typical case airflow design be a success or a flop? It’s time to find out!
