Wanted to build my first WC rig and wanted it all in one case so I turned to one of my Aussie friends (olnorton) to help with design. Desided on the Lian Li 343. Here it is without skin and I am adding fans.


Put in the Alphacool repack at the top, drives and the Lian Li 4HD rack..Just waiting for GTX 360


The Lian Li 343B is a roomy devil. Just put in the P6T7 and Livingstone CPU Block. OLNorton was spot on with his design.


Put the GTX 360 in. As you can see the 343b has plenty of room for the 360 and more rads if needed in the future..It also has a great railing system for the drives and filter covers..


Put the tygon lines in..My first time at this..I have been a TRUE guy forever..Norton had to get me to shorten them up several times...


Got the coolermaster fluid going.....


Didn't have the Lian Li filter covers at first so just hooked up the fans right to the rad..

Looking good buddy but is hungry for mor pics

edit- oops spoke too soon

Put in Feser shrouds and changed to the sunbeam extreme 30 watt per fan controller.
I love the case and temps dropped big.. about 4-6 idle and more on load...I can run 3d03 and 05 at 4.625 now.. Never could before...Still have trouble getting over 4.500-4.525 running 3d06 but that is probably me....I just started OCing a year ago and have aways to go.....
Hope you enjoy the build as much as i did....

Nice build, Buddy.
Now I want to see it with quad 4890's in there.

[Kal-EL]

is happy

Those cube builds are always a treat and all that room in there is insane. Nice work buddy, now crank up the overclocks and rip past 32k 3d06!!!

[lakeside2189]

I really came close but you will see it with 3 5870's or 2 5870x2's..Should be anyday now..Thanks Goat!!!!

[69_Goat]

Ahhh. Then it's a race to have the first 5870 Quad-Fire rig. Gane On !!

question, what normally goes there where the rad is?

Anyhow, great job at your first WC experience

[lakeside2189]

The 343b has 18 5.25 bays. 9 on each side...Lian Li makes 120mm fan holders that take up 3 bays and extra HD holders with fan that take up 3 bays...It comes with 18 Blanks...I took one blank as you can see on the right bottom and drilled out the holes and put the fan controls for the coolermaster 110cfm fans in it so i could control them. They are on the rad.
A 360 (3 x 120 fan rad fits perfect on either side)....Or you can use your imagination. Lian Li sells all kinds of stuff for those 18 Blanks
