Does Anyone Know the Model of This Case?

My side panels were both damaged, so I need to find replacements. If anyone would be able to identify this case for me, it would be much appreciated. Suggestions on where to obtain replacement side panels would also be welcome.

It is a Lian Li case, approx. dimensions 590x210x590 (H/W/D).

I thought it was the Lian Li PC-V1200, but it seems to be bigger. As for replacement, your best bet would probably be to contact Lian Li

Sorry about the third link of the front, it was dead. I've updated it to be correct.

My case doesn't seem to have a grill at the bottom for the power supply, and the power supply sits in a different position in my case compared to the Silent PC Review site link.

This thread at OC.net shows a user with a PSU mounted identically to yours.

Also not sure about the grilles... I see the one in this AT review has some, but I can't tell if they're identical to yours. Maybe different case revisions?

Otherwise, I got nothing.

Ah, the psu grille is rotatable. Looks like it is the V2000. Thanks everyone for all the help, now to find replacement panels.

Should I get a window?

Not particularly, but I don't really feel like porting my entire system to another case just because of the side panels. They were damaged when I was recommended to get them laser cut, and trying to fix the damage is prohibitively expensive and difficult. Figured I'd just use compressed air and clean out my system before mounting new panels on.

What you have appears to be a Lian-Li V2000 series.
It sounds as though you are not the original case owner.
I say this because the wheels and card holder appear to be missing and the removable/reversible power supply panel is "upside down" compared to how they are sent from Lian-Li

They made several models of this as they "improved" them.
AFAIK the side panels of all the V2000 series interchange, the differences being in grilles, added fan, or just blank panel.
Model #'s included (but not limited to) PC-V2000, Pc-V2010, PC-V2000Aplus, PC-V2000Aplus II, PC-V2100Aplus, PC-V2100Aplus II , along with an added v2 (variant 2) model of each and a "B" added for the black version (and probably a few I missed)
Lian-Li does this with most of their cases AND the cases are normally NOT stamped with a model #, so identification is by receipt or pictures, as they do not change the packaging, or even add a simple sticker, when they "improve" a model #. (Doing this allows their distributors to sell old stock, while new stock is entering the marketplace, since they are all packaged alike :ninja: )

You can try these guys for your panels, I use their products all the time, since they are local for me and I get great service. (as with anything, YMMV ;) )

Aye, I don't like doing it either. I'd think twice about dropping $130 + s/h on just side panels, though. Unless it really bothers you or you've got that kind of money just asking to be spent.

My case has been running sideless for about a year now, it bothers me xD

That site seems to only stock right panels though. I've messaged Lian Li about the panels, anyone know of anywhere else that might stock them?

Yeah. I just ordered from them myself and got my package yesterday. They had a windowed side panel for my case (Cooler Master CM Stacker STC-T01) but my case is supposed to have reversible side panels and the logo would have been upside-down for me in BTX/reverse ATX configuration. I also would have lost the giant 300mm+ fan grill on one side or blocked the special CM CrossFlow fan on the other. I'm pretty sure it isn't a custom panel either, so all that is Cooler Master's fault. I'm just going to find a way to straighten the slightly bent panel I've got.

The v2100 is an older design but a very nice case, I wish they still made them.
Good luck with the panels, I would check shops that did custom work on these cases as they may have extras around somewhere.

Tends to be faster to ask on a forum than by email, I've sent in a contact form.

Regardless, thanks everyone again for all the help, it's much appreciated ^^

So it looks like both Performance PC and Lian-Li do not have side panels for my case. Nor, does it appear, does anywhere else. Guess I'll have to replace my case entirely if I want to have a complete case again.

You could check around the FT/FS thread here or OCN's or [H]'s and see if anyone has any.

Just make some doors, it will be fun.
