Lian Li - The Ultimate Craft
"Quality" is always the essence of Lian Li's products since 1998 when Lian Li offered the first all aluminum chassis to the market. Since then, Lian Li exemplifies the same quality standards, ensuring durability and craftsmanship come first. All products are manufactured in Taiwan and distributed to worldwide markets.
Lian Li is famous for their aluminum products. Aluminum is good for heat transfer, and after Lian Li’s unique surface treatments to ensure there are no shape edges which may cut user’s hands. The beauty of Lian Li is that everything within the case is recyclable; thereby ensuring every Lian Li case is made from environmentally friendly material.
The PC-7FNW carries Lian Li’s high standard of Quality requirement. All the sharp edges have been removed for user’s safety. In addition, the external and internal surfaces have hair-line brush anodized aluminum in keeping with Lian Li’s classical style.
LIAN LI - Excellent Design
The cutting edge tool-less design is an important key feature in 2009 Lian Li cases. Lian Li designer considered end user requirements, like those who need to build systems faster, or swap out components often. The brand new tool-less modules can make Lian Li users’ life much more convenient.
The look of PC-7FNW has no door panel design; users can access the external drive easier. Attractive anodized aluminum give a flamboyant finishing touch to this outstanding high-end chassis.
Lian Li Fine Craftmanship Product The new internal layout has the motherboard on top of the power supply unit, which allows for easier access to the motherboard as well as more room above, thus larger CPU coolers can be used. The power supply unit at the button of the case is cooled with fresh cool air directly from the outside of the case, instead of pre-heated air from within. This will bring down the core temperatures and extend the lifespan of the PSU significantly.
The new PC-7FNW is a mid-tower case, which is ideal for the latest graphics cards in combination with the best thermal dynamics.Easily adjustable to optimize your hardware setup. Especially in the advent of adding in new graphics cards, equipped with 8 PCI slots, can hold three or more graphics cards, supports CrossfireX™ and 3-way SLI™.
Silent Performance
Lian Li uses the best “Made in Taiwan” high quality aluminum panel for all Lian Li chassis. The solid main chassis was folded with 1.5mm thick aluminum sheeting to make a more sturdy structure which has less vibration. The removable front panels are joined with specialized plastic kits that prevent the metal parts from touching each other, ultimately reducing noise created by fans and HDD vibration.
The PC-7FNW is equipped with large cooling fans, with low RPM, which still provide enough air flow to cool down the hardware adequately. The front 140mm intakes blue LED fan runs at 1000RPM.and the rear 120mm fan extracts the hot air out at 1200RPM.
Lian Li designers spent months to upgrade Lian Li’s HDD cage; the new HDD cage using special Thumb Screws with rubber suspension. no tool required, simply secure the anti-vibration rubber ring to the HDD, and slide the HDD into the cage. And there is a gate to secure the HDDs
The new 5.25” bay tool-less mounting incorporates a mounting bar equipped with rubber padding. After closing the mounting bar, the rubber pad pushes and holds the 5.25” device in position to both secure and absorb vibration from the device.
The Power Supply has rubber pads for both insulation and support. Also secure the PSU without scratching the painted surface.
Thermal Solution
There is a 140mm intake blue LED fan on PC-7FNW, The fan can output high air flow volume with lower RPM to push the cold air through the HDD rack.
The rear 120mm exhaust fan just next to the CPU, it can remove the hot air out fast and silently.
There are vents on the PCI slots, provids extra cooling to graphics card.
The power supply unit is at the bottom of the case. It can draw in cold air directly through the vent below the power supply unit. This cooler, fresh air will keep your PSU components more cool and stable and thus extend the PSU lifecycle.
PC-7FNW supports liquid cooling system, the two holes at the rear of the case allows water tubes to pass through, and the rubber cover can protect the tubes away from cutting.
User Friendly Design
2009 has seen an all-new tool-less design from Lian Li aluminum chassis. To do this required a great many innovative patents to be filed worldwide. The ideas will make installing and maintenance much easier. For example when installing the 5.25” optical drive, just slide the drive into the 5.25” bay, and close the mounting bar to secure the optical drive, as simple as that.
The installation of the hard disk is very easy, and tool-less. Place the hard disk into the aluminum cage, and close the clip to secure the hard disk.(2.5" HDD install feasible), Slide the hard disk within the cage into the special hard disk rack with the rubber suspension grommet.
User can easily rotate the tool-less hard disk cage to 90 degree for your space management.
The front intake fans has equipped air filter, to stop dust entering the chassis. These air filter were washable, envirnoment friendly
Multi-media port connectors follow international specification standards, with one connector for easy installation. USB port, Audio supports HD Audio or AC97 Audio. The dual design is for better compatibility options. All I/O ports on the top, allow for easy access.
There is a special quadrate opening of motherboard tray, user can easily switch the cpu's radiator without remove motherboard.

So, here's the deal. Once upon a time, many years ago, if you wanted an aluminum case, you had a choice between Lian-Li or ... nothing. That was it. They received rave reviews, had impeccable build quality and they were very expensive. I had always toyed with the idea of getting one, but, when it came time I always opted for what I felt was the more sensible choice of a good steel case. And yet, every time, over the years, that I considered purchasing a case, I always checked the Lian-Li prices. And every time I opted for a steel case. Until now. Recently, pondering a new case, I came across this one. A bargain for an aluminum Lian-Li, and lots of nifty features, too. And so I pulled the trigger. Three months later (it got backordered) I finally received my new toy. Of course, over those three months the price had dropped by about ten bucks, but that was probably just punishment for my self-indulgence. So, here are my impressions of my very first Lian-Li case.
The box. I hate reviews that go on and on describing the box a product comes in. Who cares? Well, in this instance it was a little different in that it was the first one I received that had two plastic straps around its circumference to ensure It arrived alive. Other than that, pretty standard stuff: heavy cardboard box, styrofoam padding, big plastic bag.

Bought this case for a friend's build. My first Lian-Li case I've gotten my hands on. This is certainly a work of art. I've handled cases from Antec, Cooler Master, Azza, Thermaltake, Nmedia and Silverstone. Lian-Li is superior. The finish is similar to Silverstone cases but slightly smoother. The 5.25 bay covers have the easiest removal system I've encountered. Tool-less locks for the bays work well. Thumb screws for the expansion slots. Front bezel pops out easily. HDD cage is certainly original in design and is vibration dampened. I'm gonna have to get me a Lian-Li for myself.
