Introduction

I would like to thank CaseKing.de for supplying the review sample.

CaseKing is one of the few companies out there, which will not just sell anything. They only offer hardware that performs well and is of high quality. The shop carries quite a few exclusive parts and devices from all around the world and it is also the official distributor for a long list of well known manufacturers. Their assortment has grown substantially in recent years, while great service and support is still a very important part of the shop philosophy. The website may be in German, but due to great demand an English version is also available.


CaseKing has kindly sent us the Lancool Metal Boned K6 in black. The Lancool brand has been created by Lian Li to offer gamers high quality cases at an affordable price, while packing them with features usually only found in the high-end variants. To visualize, this approach is very similar to that of automotive makers, who tend to have a mainstream brand along with a high-end line-up.
