ITreviewed takes a look at Lian-Li PC-C32 Desktop/Rack Chassis



Lian-Li's PC-C32 is a bit of an odd ball. It's too big to be practically rack mounted, and the lack of any gamer style vents or flashy LED fans limits its appeal to home enthusiasts. The enclosure is certainly well built and easy to work with, plus it's peppered with lovely finishing touches - every screw glides in effortlessly, everything slots in perfectly, and the rear-loading power supply is genius - but it lacks features. Most noticeable is that there are only two 5.25-inch drive bays and it's reasonably loud when powered. You can of course use your own fans or purchase an additional cooling module, but that's not really the point. Those looking to build a HTPC might want to look closer (at least if you're looking for a subdued look), but the PC-C32 is a bit wasted unless it is rack mounted. A bit of an enigma this one...
