LEPA has just revealed their latest mid-tower chassis series; the LPC501. There are two models available, the LPC501B which is a basic model and the LPC501A, which is the advanced model. The basic edition comes equipped with an embossed side panel and three pre-installed fans; the advanced model also comes equipped with acrylic side panels. The LPC501 features extensive ventilation thanks to a wide mesh design and supports up to six fans. There are three fans pre-installed, but the Advanced model features high-quality patented circular LED design fans. The LPC501 will support CPU coolers of up to 174mm tall.
High end graphics cards should have no issues here, with 294mm clearance and removing a hard drive cage takes that up to 414mm; more than enough room for virtually any graphics currently available. There are six tool free hard drive bays and three tool free 5.25″ drive bays. The chassis features an impressive 20mm clearance behind the motherboard for cable management and cable routing cut-outs around the motherboard tray. So there’s little doubt that you can fit a high-end and easily maintainable system into their new chassis.
The name isn’t the catchiest ever, LPC501 doesn’t exactly inspire me, but the chassis does look nice and the specifications are impressive given its affordable price tag. The LPC501A will be available at most major retailers right now, with an MSRP of $64.99 and the LPC501B is expected to follow in the near future.
