From our front-page news:
As I recently explained in our ASUS U6E 12.1" review, bigger is no longer necessarily better. Today, most people are not satisfied with their PCs unless it's small, quiet and robust. Hard to put all three of those together, but it can be done. Well, there still linger people who think that bigger is better, and wow, does Lian Li have you covered.
The company has just released their Tyr X2000 'HTPC/Gaming Chassis', that's not so much large as it is FREAKING HUGE. As you can see in the photo below, it's capable of supporting a full eATX motherboard with plenty of room for airflow. At the bottom can be found hard drive bays for six drives, with no real expandability past that. But when was the last time you really used more than SIX hard drives?
I digress. On top, a power supply can be mounted in addition to your ODDs and 3.25" accessory, be it a floppy drive (??) or something else. Pricing is not mentioned in the press release, but chances are if you have to ask, it's not going to be for you.
The Tyr X2000 is aligned to become the most unique HTPC/Gaming Chassis on the market today allowing unprecedented high performance components to be encompassed in the home theatre environment without compromising on looks and appeal. The stylish and unique side panels accept 2x 5.25" Optical Device Drives and one 3.5" drive, which are accessible from either the left or right side, while the front face is for ergonomics and airflow. The 6x hot swap RAID SATA HDD bays can contain terabytes of multimedia for your viewing pleasure while the spaciously zoned interior can accommodate virtually any system you can think of.
