there's only that one picture of the silver one (i'd actually like to see more angels of that too) but i was wondering if you guys had any pictures of the Black one?

also, just out of curiosity what are those two black squares on the side of the case in the one picture that i do see?

Yeah thanks those are good. Larger would be great too if you can swing it(although now i want the same high quality pics in silver so i can compare).

-also just so i know exactly what i'm looking at can you list your specs?

yeah they were pretty good pics (actually he said he'd send me some better ones later with better lighting) but i would like to see better images of the silver one as well if anyone has any (hell i didnt even realize the two black sqaures were fans from the website picture).

Well it is always hard to tell those things, until they finish the update of their website.

I might just update that website with all of the pictures I took; I nerded out and tooks pictures like [H]ardOCP did in their review.

Thanks HCA, but your F131 is going to look much sweeter!

OK, site NOT updated...Comcast doesn't give me much space so I'll have to redo that site when I get home tonight. I'll let everyone know when it is back :)

Hardocp style? i can only assume that means good things!

honestly i'd like to wait until they upgrade their website (and anything else that would come with that upgrade system or price wise), but they were kind of vague about when it will happen, and unless it's in the next week or so i may have to order before.

OK, I posted up most of my pictures at full quality...the link I posted above is back and working. Comcast doesn't provide a lot of space and I may be moving soon so I'll need to move that site over the next month.

I'm not a photographer...you've been warned :)

are those the same two of the front or did you retake them? cause they still have it where one looks grey and washed out and one looks black and shiny.

For those of you who own a Prelude, I've got a few questions.

First, What are the dimensions of the chassis (an estimate will do). I know it is a mid-tower, but can I put it on top of a normal height desk and access all of the drives and ports.

Second, do the front (or is it top?) audio ports work?

Finally, about how loud is the Prelude? Will I be able to hear it over the ambient noise of living in an urban area?

Thanks!

Here is a link to the case specs:

http://www.lian-li.com/Product/Chassis/Middle_Tower/V_Cool/M_V_C_PC-V600.htm

The audio ports on top do not work with my current config; X-Fi XtremeMusic. One of the X-Fi cards, I can't remember which right now, has an output on the card that should work with the top ports...if I read the information from SoundBlaster correctly.

Whew...loud is really relative, what some people consider loud...others consider quiet. If you have ambient urban noise, I expect you would consider it quiet :)

Let me know if you have any other questions.

ah, i thought you said you were going to take new ones ala Hardocp (as i still couldnt figure out which front pic was more accurate since they're so different).

still, they are good pics aside from the front flash issue, maingear should maybe use them ;)
