Lian Li, the master manufacturer of aluminum PC chassis who needs almost no introduction, has just released a new double wide chassis for everyone to salivate over and want immediately. This chassis looks SICK.
“October 9, 2013, Keelung, Taiwan – Lian-Li Industrial Co. Ltd today releases the PC-D600 double wide brushed aluminum chassis that was previously announced at COMPUTEX 2013. Supporting EATX, ATX and Micro-ATX motherboards, the PC-D600 with 2mm thick aluminum panels has a two compartment design, supports water cooling setups, and has numerous tool-less features to give absolute freedom to enthusiasts and modders to build a high end system.
Two Compartments
Separating the internal components into two compartments, the PC-D600 allows DIY enthusiasts to show off high end and intricate setups through the side panel window, while giving plenty of room for the wires and less eye-catching components on the other side of the motherboard tray.
Not only does the two compartment design allow enthusiasts to show off their builds, it also allows uninterrupted airflow across the heat generating components.
Tremendous Water Cooling Support
With tons of room to work with, installing elaborate water cooling setups is simplified in the PC-D600. A 240mm radiator can be installed on the left side of the case over the motherboard. On the right side of the case 360mm/420mm radiators in push/pull are supported.
Even with a radiator installed on the right side of the chassis, a large space above the motherboard tray allows the CPU cooler, cables, or radiator to be effortlessly moved between the compartments.
Tool-Less Installations and Features
The PC-D600 has many tool-less features allowing for simple setups and installations as well as easy breakdown for modability. This fully aluminum case features pop-off side panels and front bezel, tool-less mounting for hard drives as well as clip-in dust filters.
The entire HDD rack on the right side of the case can be pulled out of the case with the removal of a couple of thumbscrews. The three HDD cages inside the HDD rack are also tool-lessly removable and have 120mm fans mounted to them. These cages can be set up so that the fans are either towards the front of the case or behind the cage.
Versatile Cable Management Design
Clamps on the reverse side of the motherboard tray can be adjusted and positioned for optimal cable management setups.
Hardware Capability
The PC-D600 does not restrict hardware capability. Graphics cards up to 330mm (12.9”) and CPU coolers up to 180mm (7.0”) are supported. Six 3.5” HDDs and two 2.5” drives can be tool-lessly mounted in the chassis. Additionally, PSUs of all sizes are supported.
Connectivity
The front I/O panel includes four USB 3.0 ports and HD audio connections.
Price and Availability
The PC-D600 will be available after October 20 for the suggested retail price of US $349.”
