Lian Li gave a little sneak peak of a new open-air chassis that they are working on. It is still a work in progress and Lian Li is actually seeking feedback, but the most interesting thing about the case is that it can be wall-mounted!
These new cases have an open-air design which look very promising. There is a large tempered glass window that covers the front or top of the case however you see it. The case will come in three different sizes, Mini-ITX (PC-O5), Micro-ATX (PC-O6), ATX (PC-O7).
The cases will have a GPU riser that will effectively allow you to display your graphics card and makes it so the case can remain thin. The case will feature a slim optical drive bay, HDD shroud and Lian Li says there will be plentiful cable management space.
The Micro-ATX and ATX models will have a version that supports water cooling radiators, and are named PC-O6S and PC-O07S, respectively. Both the PC-O6S (pic not included) and PC-O7S support up to a 360mm radiator. What do you guys think of this case?

I’m liking this a whole lot more than that (so-called) desk/ case they just launched.
Will be interesting to see a full custom water cooling loop on display; to help sway my decision, let’s just hope it won’t cost my retirement savings to buy one.
What they don’t show is the video card plugged into anything. This case is the exact opposite of why I like most Lian-Li cases. I don’t want a parts display box, I want a rectangular black monolith. No windows, no lights. I want the theme from 2001 to play in your head when you look at it. Then, I want you to bash those skulls on the floor with an large bone. Take that skulls! YEAH!
