Is a Lian-Li PC60 good for this setup?..

[Seyba]

I'm considering getting a Lian-Li PC60 case, or an InWin A500 ATX Mid-Tower case w/ 250 watt p.s. http://www.in-win.com/framecode/index.html , click on Mid Towers, and the A500. can't make a direct link to it. What I mainly want to know is why I would want a Lian-Li compared to Inwin. Or vice versa..

I know Lian-Li's are damn nice, would it fare well for this system?
ASUS A7A266 ATX motherboard (VIA 266 chipset)
AMD Thunderbird 1.33 GHz DDR CPU w/ large h.s. & fan
(2) 256 MB PC2100 DDR SDRAM DIMM
Sony 12X/40X internal IDE DVD/CD ROM Drive
IBM 60 GB 7200 RPM DMA-100 hard disk drive
Creative Labs Geforce 2 GTS 32 MB AGP video card
Creative Labs Soundblaster Live! X-Gamer
Hitachi CM715 19" .22 (1280x1024@ 85 Hz) monitor

Lian Li is for asthetics, weight, and better cooling. If you're not overclocking, a big fan of LAN parties, or care about having a brushed finish, save your money and get the InWin.

that didn't take long.

thanks!!

How do Inwins compared to others (excluding Lian-Li)? This case is about..$50.

Inwins will need a little bit of modications to it if you want to get better cooling or if you wish to overclock. Besides that they are pretty roomy and solidly built. For the price, it's a bargain. Be sure to get a better power supply though since you are running a high speed Tbird.

I have an A500 now, but I'm thinking about upgrading to the Lian Li PC60. I'd second what Rup said, the A500 is a very nice case. On another note, be careful powering that whole system of your's off of a 250W PS! Those components suck down a s@#% load of power. I'm not sure that a 250 PS could handle all that!

I third that (that sounds so gay but whatever) the A500 is a good case though I prefer the S500, but I agree with everyone else, through in a good 300watt (atleast) PS instead of the 250

I would actually recommend 350 or 400 for what you will be running.
