Lian Li PC-T70 Open and Closed Air Test Bench Review - Product Showcase

 
The Lian Li PC-T70 is a bit hard to find, in the EU Caseking should have them and in the USA Newegg has them listed, every so often though. The packaging for the test-bench could not be less appealing, plain carton. Well, there's nothing wrong with that of course.

 
The Bench needs to be assembled, this will take a while as there's some stuff you need to mount. Please do reserve an hour for the complete setup. That said, I always love it when a company adds some candy inside the box ;) Basically the test bench is ready to take out, but you'll need to mount the PCIe retention bracket, and if you have the optional closed bench kit, that's where time will kick in. We'll show you the base installation of the Lian Li PC-T70 as well as the T70-1 upgrade kit (closed bench) separated in this article. 

 
All parts are packaged carefully, it would be hard to damage this during transport really. Above an overview of both the base Lian Li PC-T70 chassis and T70-1 upgrade kit.

The TestBench comes with storage space for HDDs and a PSU as well as having a lower compartment you can route your cabling through. Unfortunately, Lian Li does not include rubber inserts for the grommet holes. 

So this basically is the base unit, the front side. But as you can see, we need to get some work done to finish that build.
