    Lian-Li PC-65

    Does anyone know if this case accepts fans with 80x80x38mm or is it still a 80x80x25mm case just like the Antec I wanted?

    It dosent use brackets, but instead you mount the fans with screws. So size dosent matter...
    High End Lian Li Case = $180 on Mastercard
    High End Coolermaster Case = $180 on mastercard
    Debating which computer case is better = Priceless

    I'm a Coolermaster Fanboy, are you?

    I'd suggest this. Get either a thermaltake 80mm SmartFan2 or some YS tech 80mm variable speed. That way you can change the fans speed and save your sanity.

    If you're considering the Lian-Li PC-65(an excellent case) check out the Kingwin KT436 series cases. They start life as a PC-65 and end up birthed an even better case. Put just two 80x38mm tornados in the two exhaust mounts on rear panel and one 80x25mm top panel exhaust(doubt you'll need the front panel intakes; I didn't) all controlled with the excellent, stupendous, magnificent Nexus NPX-101 fan controller That leaves a Nexus port open for your CPU fan too.

    That Kingwin KT436 has 5 fan slots? 2 rear, 2 front, 1 top? Yikes! That sounds pretty sweet? That would be better than the LianLi PC-65???

    Would that be better and not have the "positive pressure" thing?

    Just need some advice, planning for 80x80x38/25mm fans

    If you just had 2 rear Tornado's and a top blowhole with a Tornado, your case temps would be excellent. With fans like that there is no need to have intake, since they bring in more than enough air

    XP1800, when you say "two rear Tornado's and a blowhole (which I assume is a fan on the top of the case), would these all be exhaust? Just seeing what the best setup would be for 5 fans?

    Start with just three exhaust fans, two on the rear panel and one in the top panel. Then check case temp, if its within 2-4c of room temp its fine. If you are getting the Kingwin KT436, the top panel mount can only handle a 80x25mm fan.

    negative pressure = dust in your case

    if you dont mind cleaning out your case every month, then go with that
