I like it!

It kinda has a desktop radio look to it...
I can see something like it in a stereo rack for internet radio or the like. I'm really into creative PC form factors.

The front, the grill is ventilation.... Fan?....
Or is there a speaker there???

Very cool Lian Li case. Looks heavily inspired by the Power Mac G5. Definitely would've wanted this if I had a build back in the early-mid 2000s.

No, I don’t see how you can add a fan to the front. To many things in the way. It uses a standard ATX power supply
So that hos it works. Sucks in Air from the bottom of power supply and blow air out the rear or in this case it blows air
Out the front since the power supply is mounted in front of the case.
This case has a loot of ventilation. The case is perforated with holes front and rear.

Where does the power supply go?

Please use the "quote" option if asking questions to what I write - it will really up the chances of me noticing 😀

In front of the case.

See photo.

Uses a Standard ATX Power supply. It mounts in front of case. It will suck the air in from under the case and blow the air out the front.
The fan is not that strong and it runs pretty cool and quiet as long as you have a quiet power supply.

Well, It’s a Full moon tonight and the Halloween Horror PC has finally Died again.

That still work.

I think it might be the capacitors. I have had bad luck with these socket 370 motherboards.

Been looking for a copy of “Night Trap” DOS version to use instead of the one posted at Internet Archive for a little Halloween time fun on my Win98 Halloween build. Only ever see the Anniversary Edition which states XP as a minimum.

Anyone tried to use it on a 98 OS?

They gonna need to up the prize to a Ford SuperDuty if they get any bigger, ppl will be breaking their trucks to get them there 🤣

Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.
