Introduction: Lian Li PC-B25B

It has been exactly one year now since Benchmark Reviews was impressed with the Lian Li PC-B20A Aluminum ATX Case we reviewed at the time. Lian Li doesn't put out a new product just because the competition does, and they certainly don't follow trends. For as long as I have known the name Lian Li, their company has earned the image of high-performance and high-quality computer chassis. This time around, they have released the PC-B25B, which is the newest member to their Classical Silent series or products. Conincidentally, I was told that this mid-tower ATX case is intended to replace the PC-B20A that was very well received last year.

There's a good reason as to why Lian Li has been at the very top of the computer chassis industry for the past seven years; they have upheld a tradition of producing well designed products. Just as popular for their craftsmanship, the Lian Li company has a history of ingenious application of aluminum in their products. Benchmark Reviews has inspected the all new PC-B25B Black Aluminum Mid-Tower ATX Case, and we offer a public view of our results.

After building hundreds of systems over the past few years, I have developed a sense of what is manufacturers consider to be an acceptable product for distribution. While my experiences have ranged from products which were absolutely horrible in concept and production, to products which were carefully thought-out and produced, in the end the product is always less then satisfying. Very rarely have I seen a manufacturer take as much into consideration as I am pleased to see in the Lian Li products.
