The height increase would be somewhat offset by removing the need to have feet underneath the case, because of the different intake placement. Total height should only increase 40mm or so. The intake change would work better for those who place it on the floor (less dust and carpet hair picked...

How about mounting the SSD with a bracket under the motherboard instead? If clearance is an issue, shorten the mobo standoffs and reposition the mobo tray by the same distance (increasing clearance underneath).

Is the motherboard tray removeable without modding?

Interesting design. Personally I would like to see the HDD bays above and below the motherboard removed and reduce the height of the case.

I'm interested to see some reviews of this thing. Yes it's large for mATX (36L). For a case with good watercooling options it's still a decent size (Corsair 350 is 42L). It looks like if you remove the drive cages you might get another rad in the bottom behind the front fans.

Any pics for the V351N? I'm guessing from the specs they just changed the HDD cage and upgraded the I\O to USB 3.0. Any other changes?

It depends on the motherboard you use. Note that if your CPU socket is close to the right side (looking from the front of the V351) the heatsink may overhang the motherboard (and interfere with the slideout mobo tray). I have the V351 case, when I had my older LGA775 board with a Zalman 7700...

Very nice build G-Skull. What is the device mounted behind the 180mm fan? Seems like its blocking a lot of case airflow. Isn't there room to mount it horizontal? With the fittings on the back of the PSU, it would probably look neater if they were hooked up the other way around and the hoses cut...

There are 4x mounting brackets and dust filters in the front. The case doesn't ship with any fans what-so-ever. I love my V-351, but it seems with each revision Lian-Li takes as many steps backwards as they do forward. I love the extra fan mounting options, better PSU placement, slide out PSU...

H70 fits a 120mm fan mount not 80mm. Would require quite a bit of modding to make it fit (you would need to cut out part of the shelf)

Bamaland I suggest you do some research on how positive air pressure works. The things you have stated about airflow are completely wrong.

Not true. LGA 2011 has the same hole spacing as LGA 1366. However the socket now includes a built in back plate that heatsinks will attach to.

The brackets are made by XSPC. Many online stores that sell watercooling carry XSPC gear. I got mine from here (note: this is an Australian online store): http://www.gammods.com.au/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_267&products_id=3137 I have mine intake though the front and...

It will fit. The H100 is 275mm long. I have a 279mm EK radiator in the front of my V351 (very tight fit, 1mm clearance between each side panel). See here for some pics in my worklog: http://forums.overclockers.com.au/showthread.php?t=947398

I don't have any insider knowledge of the Silverstone stuff, I am just reading the same sources as you guys. At a guess I would say they started with a 4-way SLI setup and then thought "how can we make this more extreme?". AFAIK 4-way is the max cards supported by mainstream drivers\chipsets...
