He brought me a Lian Li PC-60BPlus II!!

Currently I have an HP computer that's almost five years old. I opened it up the other day, and managed to break my CPU fan, but that's another story. Well the factory HP case has horrible airflow. It has one 80mm exhaust fan. And where it would draw air in through the front, the HDD is standing on it's edge blocking the air path. Way to go HP!!!

Since I plan on building a new computer soon anyways, I figured I'd get the case out of the way since I could use the better cooling as it is right now. I hope this helps!

Transplant is going to happen tomorrow after my round IDE cables come in along with my Corsair TX750 PSU. Wait till I post some pictures of the factory case. lol

Haha nice, I have almost the same case and I spray painted the inside black.

How do you like the air flow?

That hard drive was placed in front of the air inlet intentionally. Hard drives need cooling too.

Yeah but not in the way that they did this. It literally blocks all of the openings in the front. My CPU temps never drop below 60* C. At least my HDD stays at 40*. lol

What is that box looking this at the bottom?

articzap

Has some covers and air ducts in it.

Many Lian Li's don't come with great airflow. One of the amazing things about Lian Li's is that they make great blank canvases for modding. The aluminum is very easy to work with.
Add a couple of fan holes and some nice looking grills, and you'll have an amazing case, with good airflow, and looks awesome.

I've read good things about this one. Maybe I was mistaken. Anything will be better then the factory case I have now. lol

Looks real good man, Lian Li cases are some of the best : )
