I just transferred my soon to be gone athlon XP system into this brand new lian-li PC 6025A case and it is truly a KICK ASS. The Blue LED strips and HDD lite looks just damn good and the exterior finish is top notch! Finally no more overheating problem and my room is even cooler and quieter. Before this case, everything is cramped into a compaq hole and my XP2700 and AIW9700Pro constantly overheats which cause the system to crash. Now is peace on earth haha. Just a few question since this is my first high end case:

1) Does the exterior get scratched easily? (REALLY EAGER TO KNOW!!)
2) The fans are attached using push pins, can it be removed and cleaned?
3) Does the side pannels get deformed easily?

Thanks alot guys, really appreciate it. Go Lian Li go!

To be honest I have no idea what you're talking about when you say "hard anodized" but i don't really know why you'd think a case wouldn't scratch. All metals scratch easily...Especially alluminum...

1. No.
2. Yes.
3. No.

I have PC-6085B. I think it's scratch proof (I don't have kids or cats, so I can't really tell)
Replaced the top & rear fans with tri-color fans.
Replaced those red LEDs (light pipes) with Blue ones.

So far, my best case.

OK.

1). Yes, you can scratch the surface, because the aluminium is not impregnated with the colour, it is *just* a coating. Saying that you would have to use like a diamond, or maybe a pair of pliers to get the perfect scratch.
2). Yes, the push-pins are very easy to remover, I have replaced two of my fans with asaka Blue LED fans.
3). No, but given the right circumstances, like for example sitting on it, or walking over it while its resting on something. However, be more concerned if you have a window panel, they are far more flimsy (I have one).
