Lian-Li Industrial Co. Ltd today announces two additions to the desk chassis lineup: the single-system DK-Q2 and the dual-system DK-03. Like the previous desk chassis, the aluminum body and tempered glass surface highlight the minimalism of this practical fusion of desk and chassis. The updates on these new models add simplicity to system building, more refined aesthetics and ergonomics.

With gratitude to such positive feedback, Lian Li has refreshed ergonomics in the design of the DK-Q2 and DK-03. The body depth of the desk has been reduced to give you more leg room. The 30mm of height expansion allows a larger variety of user legs to fit comfortably under the desk. Taller, stronger adjustable legs and thinner body allow a much more natural height and angle of arms for typing, the extra legroom makes a big difference.



Removable Motherboard Tray
The DK-Q2 and DK-03 include removable motherboard trays to make system building easier. The motherboard trays also allow system builders to route cables underneath to facilitate better airflow and cable management.

The DK-Q2 supports motherboards up to ATX, while the DK-03 supports two motherboards simultaneously; one SP-ATX at 12"x10.6" for the primary side, and an additional mini-ITX motherboard on the alternative side.

Water Cooling Features
The new additions to the desk chassis series support the latest water cooling hardware. The DK-03 can hold up to a 480mm radiators on one side and the DK-Q2 can hold two. They both have four 120mm fans on each side for airflow.

Hardware Compatibility
CPU coolers up to 90mm (3.5") in height and VGA cards up to 440mm (17.3") are easily supported in both the DK-Q2 and DK-03. The DK-03 holds up to ten 3.5" and ten 2.5" drives, while the DK-Q2 can hold up to seven 3.5" drives and eight 2.5" drives.

Optional Adjustable RGB Interior Lighting
DIY enthusiasts can adjust the interior lighting through the optional RGB lighting kit complete with LED strips, cord clip, dimmer and controller. The front mounted controller allows instant analog color selection. Guaranteed to fit and show off your custom interior.

Price and Availability
The DK-Q2 and DK-03 will be available in the the USA at the end of June in Microcenter for the MSRP of DK-Q2 $990, DK-03 $1490.

I am sorry but I have never liked these things. Its not for the design or what they are (Personally the desk computer looks very cool and is a great idea) its because of the price for what you get.

Edit: These actually seem to have a bit better quality than many I have seen. I had to do a double check...Well I still think its a bit much for what you get.

They look cool, but again I would not pay that much for either of those, maybe half...

+1 :) same thing.

Not my cup of coffie though. I've said it on every Lian Li - desk- release. If they make the PC slim and vertical and integrate into one of the stands- then I'd be intrigued. Personal preference of course.
