Lian Li adds to its roster of unorthodoxPCcases with the Odyssey, a limited edition yacht-themed aluminum chassis. Anything is indeed possible.
The Odyssey will come in white or silver. It measures about 29″x 12″x 10″ and has room for a mini-ITX motherboard, two 3.5″ drives, two 2.5″ drives and two 12″ GPUs. As you can see the mobo goes on the top level, the graphics cards go on the second level and the drives are mounted on the bottom level. The case will also come with a waterproof LED kit and a controller that goes into the rear of the case such that its knobs stick out for easy access.
Lian-Li’s luggage-style PC-TU series PC cases have a rugged design and flip handle. The firsttwo PC-TU models could fit only mini-ITX and mini-DTX motherboards, but the new PC-TU300 has enough room for mini-ATX and ATX boards. Not only that, Lian-Li is building on the series’ form with the TC-01, an optional trolley accessory for the PC-TU300.
Watch Lian-Li’s demo video for more on both the case and the trolley attachment:
According to Digital Trends the tower should be available this month. The PC-TU300A will cost $230 (USD) while the PC-TU300X will go for $250, though Lian-Li hasn’t revealed what the latter has to merit a higher price. The TC-01 also has no specific release date or price yet. Keep an eye on Lian-Li’s Facebook page for updates.
Lian-Li have finally released the consumer versions of its computer chassis desk. It’s called the DK series and has three variants. The DK-01 can house up to an HPTX system, while the DK-02 has enough room for two systems, one up to HPTX and a secondary mini-ITX rig. Finally, the DK-Q1 is a smaller version of the DK-01.
All three cases will let you admire your computer’s hardware through their tempered glass desktop. You can either remove the glass or pull the main drawer to inspect or swap parts. Check out the video below for more on the DK-01 and the DK-02.
As you may have guessed, these multipurpose and gimmicky cases will be expensive. On its Facebook page, Lian-Li said that the DK-01 will sell for $989 (USD), while the DK-02 will cost $1,189, but has not yet provided a US release date. The cases will be released in the EU region this August for €749 and €899 respectively. No word on the DK-Q1′s pricing and release yet.

We’ve featured a couple of PCcasemods that incorporated a computer’s hardware into a desk. If Lian-Li pushes through with its prototype, you won’t need to be a modder to have a desk and PC case in one.
The DK01 is basically a tower case with legs. It has all of the features of an enthusiast PC chassis, including LEDs, a transparent glass panel and tool-less mounting. Lian-Li also said that the monitor mount shown in the image above will be included with the desk if it goes into production.
Head to Lian-Li’s blog for more images of the DK01 prototype.
