Lian Li Announces The PC-X510 Tower Chassis

Lian-Li Industrial Co. Ltd unveils the PC-X510: a mid tower chassis with a tidy, spacious interior segregated into three distinct airflow chambers for optimal cooling and tempered glass to show it off. The PC-X510 has generous allowance for components, supporting as many as eight 2.5″ or 3.5″ drives and eight expansion slots.

The Case is trisected into three airflow chambers. Three 120mm fans pull air through two long intakes along the front of the side panels. Each is covered by a washable magnetic mesh air filter strip. An additional two 120mm fans vent the top and central compartments, while the PSU exhausts the bottom compartment itself. This divides the airflow between the PSU, motherboard, and drive bay area so they don’t influence each other. The included fan controller helps get the cooling just right.

Modular Customization Options
The top compartment of the PC-X510 features two removable drive trays mounted on shock-absorbing rubber grommets. Each tray holds two drives for a total of four 2.5″ or 3.5″ drives. One or both of the trays can be removed to accommodate ambitious cooling setups – up to two more additional 120mm fans or a 240mm water cooling radiator. An additional mount is located behind the motherboard allowing one tray to be hidden in the rear. It can be relocated from the top, or purchased separately to complement the two included, making a total of up to six vibration-dampened drives.

The three 120mm intake fans are mounted on a tool free holder; it can be taken out with ju st two thumb screws and replaced with a full-sized 360mm water cooling radiator. Pre-punched holes are located near the eight expansion slots to mount the optional tool free PCI retention system: http://www.lian-li.com/en/dt_portfolio/pci-01/
