Conclusion

The X2000FB really is one of
the most luxurious cases money can by at the moment. What you'll also
get is the case with probably the highest build qualitiy out there in
the market. The side panel for example are made of two millimeter thick,
hairline brushed aluminium panels. Also the hot swap cages and the
ergonomics in general aren't matched by now. Furthermore we haven't been
able to find something that we would wish Lian Li to change it as soon
as possible.

It simply is a fact that the PC-X2000FBs build
quality belongs to the best available on the market and therefore every
single piece fits perfectly. It also doesn't matter if you're taking a
closer look at the hot swap cages, the side panels or even fan
controller. But once more we have to underline the quality of the
clamping mechanism regarding the expansion cards. It's very ergonomic
and all cards will be tightened to the case perfectly. Another thing are
the several holes in the motherboard tray. This allows a nice cable
management as well as the installation of CPU coolers when the
motherboard has already been put in place. |

Regarding the X2000FB Lian Li chose
an approach which is quite different to the one other manufacturers use
in order to design a case with plenty of space inside. Therefore this
case is very high. This makes the X2000FB look thin and elegant although
it is a huge thing. Furthermore the rounded edges and the silver line
centered in the front also look very elegant and it even give this giant
a soft touch. |

If you should be looking for a very
special case which comes with a very high build quality and a luxurious
design then the PC-X2000FB will be just perfect for you. Furthermore the
financials really shouldn't come first because for the same kind of
money you'll be able to get a high-end graphics card or a very well
performing SSD. |
