Featuring the spider-edition side panel in red color
18 May 2010,
Keelung, Taiwan – Lian Li Industrial Co. Ltd.
launches the PC-8FI mid tower series. The hair-line brushed
all-aluminum chassis is positively sexy and available in a red
spider-edition, as well as black and silver, taking looks to a
new level. Lian Li's signature tool-less installation features and
customization capabilities make the PC-8FI series a must have for the
gaming enthusiasts and professional gamers.
LED Lit Fans & Transparent Side Panel Windows
The same fan design is used for all three models with two 120mm
@1200rpm intake fans on the front panel and one 120mm @1200rpm exhaust
fan mounted on the back panel. All the fans have anti-vibration
mountings. Additionally, the top panel offers users one 140mm fan hole,
should they desire to mount an additional fan. The red spider-edition's
side panel features a large, spider-shaped, transparent window,
exposing the interior of the chassis and the rear panel's exhaust fan,
lit with red LEDs. On the black edition's front panel, the intake fans
are lit with blue LEDs.
Interior Capabilities
The PC-8FI series is designed to give gamers lots of hardware
options. The tool-less, anti-vibration rubber ring suspension hard disk
drive rack can hold six 3.5” HDDs. Externally, the chassis' 5.25” x 3
Optical Device Drive (ODD) bays, with the capability of a 3.5” x 1 bay
(use a 5.25” converter), mount without the use of tools and are held in
place by a rubber-padded arm to prevent vibration. The eight PCI
mounting brackets enable CrossFireX and three-way SLI graphics card
setups, and are equipped with a rubber pad to reduce noise and
vibrations. The PSU compartment, located directly above a filtered vent
at the bottom of the chassis for increased cooling and long PSU life,
is lined with rubber pads, as is its tool-less mounting clip. The
PC-8FI's design allows users to mount Micro-ATX or ATX motherboards
directly above the PSU for easy access.
Cable Organization, Dimensions and Special Features
Lian Li designers have included a tool-less cable clamp within the
PC-8FI as well as extra holes in the plates for cable routing. The
dimensions of the PC-8FI are 210x460x490mm (W.H.D.) and the maximum
video card size is 285mm. The front panel comes off without tools,
making it easy to remove the washable air-filters in front of the fans.
The multimedia I/O ports are located on the top panel and consist of
USB 3.0 x 2, e-SATA x 1 and HD Audio. To increase airflow, the unused
PCI slots have special vented brackets to bring in cool air, and the
PC-8FI supports liquid cooling systems with 2 rubber-lined holes on the
rear panel.Traditional
