PRODUCT COMPOSITION

The case comes in a colorful and informative cardboard carton that proudly displays the numerous features and the fact that this, like all Lian Li cases, is made in Taiwan. Although the box sustained some distress during its long journey from the Orient…

,,,the case arrived in pristine condition thanks to the packaging. The case is protected by a heavy plastic wrap and sandwiched between two foam blocks.

In typical Lian Li fashion, the case is elegantly understated. There is no gratuitous bling to distract from the classic good looks and the brushed aluminum panels are black in color. The aluminum top panel is meshed over much of its surface to provide open area for the top exhaust fans. The PC-B25F has a very few plastic elements incorporated into the design, and we'll examine these in the next section.

Lian Li includes an installation guide (in English only) that is printed on a single sheet of heavy paper and, while brief, it is complete and will allow the user to accomplish an installation with no problems. Also included are a tool-free PSU installation bracket and a bag of hardware that includes some cable management aids.
