My Lian Li PC-V351 review. Is it funny?

[KommissarHorizon]

Man, it has been ages since I've posted here. If you have a moment read this Lian Li PC-V351 review. Is it informative and funny or is it just a symbol of those five minutes that you are never going to get back? And if you have any questions about the case, as it's two feet away from me, I'll be glad to answer them.

couldn't finish it. you're trying way too hard.

Also, I get significantly less interested in a website when those incredibly annoying pop-up bubbles come up as I move my mouse around.

And yes, you seem to be trying to hard.

Meh, it was ok. I don't see why your baggin' on the guy for making his own website. It's cool to me, but then I can see myself doing something like this. I make elaborate posts like this from time to time, but on message boards and not on my own website. It's challenging to write it up in a coherent way and include inmages and such to make it interesting. His hobby is building computers and web design. I can totally relate. Nice effort OP!

If you don't want those nasty pop-ups just use FF + Adblock. Problem solved.

No, no! "Bag" away! I was curious to see how much tolerance there was for "over the top" reviews. So far it looks like, "not very much." I'll see about getting those web previews axed.

Overall it's a decent review, and humor is always appreciated, but pick your spots.

It's very similar to Oklahoma Wolf's reviews over at jonnyguru.com, but somehow his tone works and yours didn't. There's a very subtle difference between them, try and find it. Good example (where he even addresses the issue) here: http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=185

Thanks for taking the time to link to jonnyguru. I've never been over there before and I liked that review. Next time I'll tone it down a notch or two.

And stop using "air quotes." You know you're doing it when you're typing.

Thanks for an excellent review.

I'm studying the possibility of building a new rig using the V351 or V352, and read your detailed article with interest.

I wonder if these thumb screws are small enough to replace the six annoying ones on the side?

I thought your thermal compound application methods were funny.
