Lian Li PC-Q11 Mini ITX Case Review

For our system build today we received the excellent Zotac H55-ITX WiFi board which we tend to use in our ITX system builds. It arrives in a miniscule orange coloured box with details of the product on the front and back.

The bundle contains a well written manual, a handy installation guide, WiFi antenna (2), several converter cables, 3 orange sata cables (no 90 degree unfortunately) and a motherboard connectivity fascia for the rear of the chassis.

The motherboard is passively cooled and if it is the first time you have seen a Mini ITX board, be prepared to be blown away by the diminutive size of everything!

We listed the connectivity on the last page, but as you can see above there are more than enough ports, even for the most demanding of enthusiast user, we particularly like to see eSATA included – we use this a lot in the KitGuru offices.

The board is passively cooled, this is a good move, as KitGuru hates small, high speed fans. The Wi-Fi card can be seen above next to the ram slots on the right of the picture.

The mobo is 1156 slot which means it can handle Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 processors from Intel. We will delve more into the system build later in the article.

The Bios is fully featured and we have taken a plethora of screenshots to show you below.

  1. This gets me rather hard. lian li are still such a sexy company

  2. It is a lovely design, but I cant help but feel that lian li are really lacking much innovation with their outward designs.

  3. Their outward appearance is what makes them look like ‘lian li’ I think if they started going into weird looking thermaltake style designs then they would lose their identity in this market.

    I think they are coming up with enough internal improvements to warrant continued success. This black case would look great next to my sony tv.

  4. They make a quality product, love them myself, but it is expensive, especiallyw ithout a power supply

  5. Why is the red one 20 more ?

  6. its more expensive to make as the finish takes longer.

  7. I really dig this, price is right and the product looks good.

  8. Nice looking case , ideal shape too, never really liked the sugo shape

  9. Nice design, I like the fact the vents are in the side panels for intake rather than front

  10. I like Lian Li but I think they are overrated.

  11. Why is it overrated Jimmy I see nothing wrong with this?

  12. I love their engineering, seriously their aluminium is quality material

  13. I am ordering one of these in black , love the design and shape. Quick question, does anyone really want to over clock in a case like this?

  14. I have the older model, this has quite a few improvements and I cant understand the Lian Li haters, these cases rock.
