Question 1

Does this come with a built in psu?

Accepted Answer

No it doesn't. The psu compartment is actually quite small. In fact the clearance listed on Lian Li's website is 140mm in length. The compartment is standard in height and width however. There are several standard atx power supplies that will fit in the case; and a modular psu would go a long ways to help managing your cables.

Question 2

can the blue light be turned off? is it loud looking to build nas/htpc

Accepted Answer

The power button is a really bright blue led but you can leave that unplugged from the mb. The front fan you can't turn off the LED but I took it out and snipped off the actual led power wires on the fan, problem solved.

The case is super quiet, I have it in my bedroom/home office running a s server with 6 drives full and it barely makes a sound.

Question 3

Does it come with pre-installed standard mini-itx standoffs?

Accepted Answer

The standoffs are built into the aluminum back panel, and are unfortunately very easy to strip out.

Question 4

Could a GTX 680 fit in this case?

Accepted Answer

I am not familiar with that card.  But from the looks of it, you will have limited amount of room.   This case is great for all in one ITX boards and lots of HD's.

Question 5

Does the newer shipments have correct usb 3.0 headers to plug into the motherboard now?

Accepted Answer

This isnt the newest model, lian li came out with a new model that is slightly larger a couple months ago. It is laid out slightly differently. At any rate this particular model does have the correct usb 3.0 headers.
