Kit-Tronics is your friend (http://www.kit-tronics.com)

I ordered mine today and the sales rep told me it'd ship out on Monday (from Canada, that is......doesn't matter though cuz they give you free UPS ground shipping :attn:).

Well, I just ordered the Lian-Li PC65 Aluminum ATX and I have to wait because they are on back order :(..
So.. I guess I am making the holes (for the adaptor) on my current box.. If it looks ok, I might just leave it, we'll see..


Good luck to all of you with the installation...

I ordered a Lian-Li PC-60 for my Prommy and it arrived yesterday. I've already taken a 120mm holesaw to the top of it and cut a huge hole out of the mobo tray so I can install the prommy heater on the rear of the mobo w\out removing the mobo from the tray :) Ahhh the joy of tools

Next up is the cutting of the hole for the Prommy hose....that'll be a little later tonight :attn:

All you have to do is add the standard Mach I to your cart and then add the Lian-Li aluminum add-on kit seperately :)

i ordered the Mach I , i didnt get the add one lian li because i felt it was too costly for what i was seeing.
i have a drill press and several tools that i can make what i want to with my own design and do it pretty cheap. i hope anyways.

The Lian-Li kit is overpriced IMHO too. I posted a link to the Hardwaregods prometeia ice kit (http://www.hardwaregods.net/ice_kit.html) in another thread asking opinions about it. I like it, but it still seems a bit overpriced to me. It does kinda look pretty cool though. Add in whatever lights into it that match your case and poof...everything matches.

Crap, I called kit-tronics today and they said that mine would probably shipped out when the new shipment arrives on Feb. 27th. Oh well, plenty of time to prep my new Lian-Li for it lol

I orderd my last Monday (a week ago) from Kit-Tronics, after 3 back and forth and emails they finally sent me an email today telling me it was shipping. Seems they had run out of the AMD Kits.

Also they explained I was the last to get one since they have a shipment on order from Denmark and this will proably the last shipment they are going to get since the Mach 1 has been discontinued. They will honor the price on the website so if you really want to try one out and are willing to wait get it now before the price climbs or save thy pennies and get a mach 2.

My epox 8rda+ and XP2100 are still running happy at 2.6 using a custom water cooler I built. Even if I do not get more overclock out of vapor at least future chips will be able to use it :)

Hello Guys

I also ordered the Lian Li PC-65 to match my Mach I. I was really split about using my current case, or buying a new one.. I might still modify my case and see what it looks like, but I think that the Lian li would also look awesome with the Mach I... lol..
Like my friend always says: "Its ony money"..

I just got an email from kit-Tronics about the same thing you all said Match I is being discontinue..

From Alan Greer (of Kit-Tronics) today as follows:

"We sold out on Mach 1, and an order was placed for the last 48 units, which should leave Denmark this week by container to
arrive in North America before the end of the month. Once this
batch is sold out, brand new with one year warranty Mach 1 units will be gone forever. As Euro and transportation cost are hard to control, good chance prices will increase. Orders placed for the Mach 1 before the price increase will be respected."

"As your helping to spread the word, I created a discount code with your name (Daniel). Anyone up to the end of this month placing an order for any of nVENTIV's products over $500 will get a $5 discount". This is Canadian Money guys..

I just tried it myself and I got the $5 discounted..lol
Every little bit counts, I think..

Ok that is my 2cts....

I don't know who it was that I talked to today but he knew his stuff. I probably talked to him for 15-20 minutes and it was like talking to a good friend. It's by far some of the best customer service I've come across yet, even though my order was delayed.

Yes, you are right. Must be the fresh Canadian air.. The 2 folks that I have spoken to seemed very interested in what I wanted to do, and what I had done, as a matter of fact, I sent then my link for them to see my air cooled mods and they actually looked at it and send me some comments. lol

Well, It looks like I am buying a new Mobo/CPU/Mem combo.
The more I thought about it the more wanted to keep my current rig together. So, I will built a new one, lol.

Hope I wll get everything within the week..
Has anyone modified the Lian-li PC-60 or PC-65? I have not worked with aluminium before.




Thanks

Just modified my PC-60 the other night. I cut a 120mm blowhole in it with a 120mm holesaw, cut an 80mm hole with an 80mm holesaw, and I cut a semicircle out of the bottom corner of the case for the Prometeia hose. I used a dremel for the semicircle and it went well. I also used my dremel to cut a big hole in the removable mobo tray so I can have easy access to the rear of the motherboard for installing the Prommy heater without removing the mobo from the tray.
