Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I own three Lian Li G70B and I love them. I think the A70 replaced the G70 so I am about to replace my Antec P180 with one. We can compare cases back and forth all day long but when it comes to build quality, you cant really put that down on paper and compare it. Lian Li's quality is outstanding. The price is steep and that is something only you can decide if it is worth the extra money. To me, I always look at these less expensive cases that basically have the same features and size of the Lian Lis, but end up buying a Lian Li and NEVER regret it.

I looked very hard at the G70 from Performance-PCS w/ a custom side window and I liked the look of it, But the main reasons I decided to get the A70 was that it was alittle wider than the G70. Look-wise, It was very nice. Teecee, You wont be dissapointed in the A70, I sure wasnt. And yeah, They are expensive, But you get great quality when you get a LiLi.

I actually bought one of the decked out water cooled G70s from Performance PC. Very nice. So the A70 is wider? Nothing wrong with that. Made my newegg order about an hour ago.

If you paid $239 for the black one from newegg, Performance has the same case for $209 and you can customize at the bottom, But of course the shipping is EXPENSIVE.
The G70 is 210 (W) and 588 (D) and the A70 is 220 (W) and 590 (D). Just alittle wider.
If you want a side window, Anyone of THESE with W-75x will fit. I have the W-75B-DX and love it. Only the W-75x will fit, So make sure you get one thats a 75. I kinda wish I wouldve gotten the blue UV panel though. You can buy mine for less and I'll buy the blue one. J/K.

The cases are the same inside, one just has a door on the front.Do you know the difference between the A70 and A71?
Yeah, They are the same interior-wise, But the A71 has a door, Plastic power/reset switches, Where the A70 has a nice steel-like power/reset switch.
Screw doors. I love the power buttons on the Lian Li's. Honestly the only thing that sucks about the Lian Li is that price, even though I think it is worth it.

Yeah I know, But its still ALOT cheaper than the LiLi V2000 ($269) and the Silverstone TJ07 ($300+).
The ONLY qwirk I have w/ the buttons on the A70 is that if you push them in alittle too much, 1 side tends to stick on the edges of the hole, And you have to mash it alittle to make it pop back out. I think the reason for that is that on mine, Theres a rubber gasket around the reset switch, But not on the power switch, So that may cure that.
The removable fan filters are nice and I clean them every week to ensure a clean system.
I didnt care too much for the removable mobo tray, Or if they really call it removable. Its not like some other cases, Where the whole back comes out. Its remove the right side panel, Its loosen 3 screws, Push the tray forward, And it pops down. You cant install anything that goes in a slot.
But even with those small things, I LOVE this case.
