Motherboard tray is removable and actually A70/71 is "mother" of these other non-V Lian Li full towers.Another variant of the cases mentioned above is the PC-A70. It has the exact same layout as the above cases, except the motherboard tray isnt removable, and it doesnt have any SATA back-plates.
What are you expecting from those sense making airflow lacking upside down expansion card baking boxes?I've owned a Lian-Li V1000 and V1200 and while Lian-Li has great construction of the case the cooling is not that great in comparison to other cases.

If a removable mobo tray with opening for mounting HSF is what you looking for, then you can look at lian li B70 as the picture below shows.
The B70 also has tool-less HDD trays and optical trays. Built quality is exceptional as expected.
I guess they wanted to keep costs down with those new additions. Rather complex parts involving tool-less 5.25" bays and card slots surely didn't come for free.It's a little expensive but I like the layout of the B70/B71. My complaint though still is the lack of better cooling. It doesn't come with any bracket to mount 120mm fans on the backside of the HDD cage does it? I noticed some of the other Lian Li cases had that so I don't know why Lian Li doesn't offer that for the B70 as well. I like having fans right up close to the motherboard blowing on the video card and RAM.
A70/71 was introduced nearly two years ago and A77 in last spring along with A7010/7110.Hey E.T, Im pretty sure the PC-A77 is the 'mother' since it was the first.
