In recent times, the selection of cases available to the consumer has grown considerably. Vendors are giving the consumers what they want - originality and variety. Gone are the restricting choices of just plain beige or black. To further this cause, the aluminum case was born. Color Cases sent us their Lian Li PC60C aluminum case to see what all the buzz on aluminum cases is all about.

The overall design of this case can pretty much be summed up as breath-taking. To start, the case comes with a nice poster diagram describing and listing parts and functions of the case (and there are quite a few). Even if you're the type of person that prefers to fiddle your way around without any manuals, the nice glossy poster is still a nice touch. The entire case is designed to be virtually tooless. The only tool required during the installation of this case was a single philips head screwdriver for installation of the drives into the drive cages.
