Have any of you put together a system with the Lian Li Case? I have a Lian Li 68 and it is making me crazy! Whenever I put my PCI cards in, they do not fit right so i can put the screw in the notch. Whenever I try to get a screw in it, it pops out of the slot. It is making me crazy. I cant screw them in at all. They sorta hang, or they pop out of the slot. What to do? It's almost as if the motherboard is too far back or something. I used the little square mounting pieces they give, pushed them in from the back like they show. It seems whenever I push on the cards the motherboard goes back a bit. Those square nuts do not hold it forward, they push back in. Does anyone know what I Mean? HELP! Thanks.

I have the same case and have not had any problems with it.
I mounted an Asus A7v266-E board and everything lined up fine.
If I understand what you are saying, the standoff are moving?
Is this right?

I had what sounds like the exact same problem with the Lian-Li 60.

The best way I found to deal with it is to completely unmount the mobo from the case. Insert all your PCI cards and your AGP card with the mobo free from the case. Then, gently line it up with the case and put the screws in very lightly. Don't crank on them - you will likely pop the cards out and have to start over.

Too bad such a nice case is marred by such a stupid problem.

Does your motherboard fit too close to the tray.

Maybe all that would need to be done is to place
shims between the motherboard and the standoffs.

Got a PC-32 that can be a little tempremental, but nothing insurmountable - got a PC-76 here waiting for a motherboard, I'll let you know how that goes.

Overall I rate Lian-Li very highly - but I did have a problem with a slightly loose video card in that PC-32 once.
