Final Thought
The PC-6070 proves to be yet another great product from the designers at Lian Li. Its few shortcomings, like the lack of a screw-less design and only one exhaust fan, are matched by the plethora of features, such as the removable motherboard tray and plenty of drive mounting space.The temperature readings showed the PC-6070 to perform at the average level, though an additional exhaust fan could have helped the system keep temperatures of many components cooler. We were surprised at how much lower the noise level was compared to the other 4 cases. The foam insulation resulted in noise levels about 10 dBA lower on average, making this a real quiet case.
In the end, the price tag fits the look and performance of this Lian Li creation well. With slight improvements, the PC-6070 could be one of the top cases in its class in the market.
Special thanks to Hampton Technologies for providing us with the Lian Li PC-6070 for this review.

Yeah the review formatting is screwed, rather disconcerting to read :)ripdude - Friday, March 26, 2004 - link
Good review, especially the noise-level.Could the new Coolermaster CM Stacker STC-T01 be taken in a review?
Sporting a 300mm fan I'm very anxious to see if this new case is as good as it looks.

This computer case has a bit more foam, and is much quieter:http://www.g-news.ch/articles/nhp200nc/

I would guess that anyone can buy foam and glue it in their case to reduce noise. I wonder if there is a place to buy it online?KristopherKubicki - Friday, March 26, 2004 - link

Is it me... or is the formatting screwed up? I see the bottom 1/2 of the webpage on top and the top 1/2 on the bottom. ;confused;dgrady76 - Thursday, March 25, 2004 - link
Nice, in-depth review, Mr. Purav. Also, thanks for the decibel level readings for similar cases. I bought a Fong Kai case on the recomendation of this site, and my lord if that case is not louder than my air conditioning, washer and dryer and vacuum cleaner combined.
