It's the one flaw every new ITX case now a days from a major company seems to share. They are all too big. There's a reason why half a decade later the SG05 is still the gold standard.

Lol. That Lian-Li case is the dumbest thing in the world. But I still think it's awesome (that and their Spyder, Conch, and desk cases).
Just saw their new PC-Q19 ITX case with VGA support. Not sure about size comparison, but it looks awfully similar to the LRPC..
The Q19 is all aluminum, in black or silver w/opt. vertical stand. GPU up to 8.6" via riser, SFX PSU, 3x 2.5" + 1x 3.5" drive support. $149.
So how does the LRPC differ from the the Q19? I'm assuming the Q19 is huge in comparison. Specs says it's 1ft³.. so 28L??
I don't think the Q19 is a close competitor. I consider it a foul-looking waste of space that can't even take full length graphics cards. I'd go as far as calling it a fail.
Are this Lian Li models the competition you were talking about, Necere?

No, this is the first time I've seen these. Also wondering where you found them? Construction looks like Lian Li, but the design and lack of branding makes me think they were developed by another company. Based on the Dirac PSU, I'm guessing they might be for the Japanese market.Are this Lian Li models the competition you were talking about, Necere?
Lol. I have no problem with people expressing their appreciation for things I didn't design. I'd much rather have honest opinions than sycophants.Holy shit. Those look nice(Sorry Necere).

Some observations:
- There appears to be no directed airflow scheme, instead relying on free flow with large openings. Dust control is obviously not a priority here.
- All three designs call for long flexible PCIe risers, none of which are actually shown connected. That's not going to be cheap.

I see. Pretty interesting. The mini-ITX version is 394x138x400mm, or 21.7L, with GPU support limited to 200mm. So it's not really too comparable to the LRPC. Really, they seem designed more for showcasing a build than anything.

They say they are for wall mounting, so guess they're not really targeting SFF at all. They aren't afraid of thinking outside the box though, I'll give them that
Maybe it's time to get a prototype?

You just wanna "case porn" guyz? I mean the photos of the real thing...
Just HAVE to have that optical drive, preferably the slim kind.
This case is gorgeous and quite frankly, in my opinion, PERFECT. As long as we get an optical drive in this baby, its golden. Wouldn't be much of a home theater pc if it couldn't play blurays would it Thats where I think Lian-Li has gone horribly wrong with their most recent SFF release. Its stupid if you can't get a cd/dvd into it. So yeah, every render that I've seen on this forum looks fantastic. Just HAVE to have that optical drive, preferably the slim kind.

-EDIT- You might be able to fit one in the GPU compartment if you have a really short card, but don't quote me on that.
For the umpteenth time, this isn't an htpc.
But, Necere is checking the possibility of allowing ODD support without making the case worse for everybody else though, so you might get lucky.
Why would you voluntarily use PowerDVD?It's an irrelevant feature for a high-end gaming case because of how much better a walmart blu-ray player is in comparison. Who with this kind of money will settle for such a terrible blu-ray player as powerdvd?
