Lancool introduces the PC-K56N mid-tower, a new case that will ship for $99 (excl. VAT). It's made from SECC steel, weighs 8.7kg and measures 210mm x 472mm x 505mm (W x H x D). There are three external 5.25" drive bays, three 3.5" HDD bays, two 2.5" HDD/SSD bays, eight expansion slots, support for ATX and M-ATX motherboards, support for three fans (140mm front and 120mm rear fan is included). The case is compatible with VGA cards of up to 415mm, PSUs as long as 240mm and CPU coolers with a height of up to 160mm.
Lancool, a manufacturer of mid to high-end computer chassis, has launched a new mid-tower PC case for the Dragon Lord Series – PC-K56N. Designed for ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards, the PC-K56N includes many tool-less features as well as an efficient interior layout to keep your system cool.

The chassis' adjustable HDD rack supports up to three 3.5-inch HDDs as well as two 2.5-inch HDDs or SSDs which can be set to face forward or backward. Installation is simplified for users with the included thumbscrews, and the rubber suspension keeps vibration to a minimum.

The front 140mm and rear 120mm fans facilitate the flowing of cool air throughout the system. The side panel gives more cooling options with space for two additional 140mm or 120mm fans. For users who want more, the PC-K56N supports a liquid cooling system with two holes for water tubes protected by rubber covers.

As to be expected from Lancool, the PC-K56N features numerous tool-less characteristics from effortless optical drive mounting to an easy-to-remove detachable front panel. Additionally, the 8 vented PCI brackets require no extra equipment when installing thanks to the thumbscrews.

Cable management is a breeze. Expertly placed and designed cable clamps keeps those in-the-way wires neat and secure. With the cables out-of-the-way, cool air flows unobstructed throughout the Lancool PC-K56N's interior keeping hardware at its optimum operating temperatures.
