Because Lian-Li decided not to include a windowed side panel, both sides of the case are pretty straight forward. Made from the usual Lian-Li anodized brushed aluminum, both sides scream elegance and durability. The panels do not have options to mount fans or any ventilation holes but are heavy, sturdy,and portray the clean simple lines that Lin-Li is known for.

The top of the PC-V1020 features a 140mm fan, the power and reset switches, and the front panel connections. The front panel features four USB 3.0 connections, an e-SATA connection, and a mic and headphone jack. The front panel connections are concealed when not in use by a lid.

Moving around to the front of the PC-V1020 is where you will find three 5.25 ODD bays two of which have matching covers. The third 5.25 bay has a built in 5.25 to 3.5 adapter which is perfect for adding another bay device should one choose to do so. The lower part of the front bezel is constructed entirely of aluminum mesh allowing for excellent ventilation and a non restrictive flow of air from the two 140mm intake fans.
Continuing on we take a look at the back of the PC-v1020. The top area is where you find the included 120mm exhaust fan, the opening where a motherboard’s I/O shield gets installed, and two holes for water cooling tubes to pass through. Although we would not consider this case to be an ideal candidate for water cooling, the option to do so is there. Moving down the back you will find eight available expansion slots which are covered by ventilated covers allowing for additional air flow. Just to the right of the expansion slots is yet another ventilation area. The bottom rear of the case is where the power supply opening is located. The power supply bracket is held on with four thumb screws.

Our external tour of the PC-V1020 concludes with a look at the bottom of the case. There are four aluminum casters included which have two rubber o’rings applied to each wheel. The o’rings will prevent vibrations and protect the surface the chassis rests on. The front two caster can be locked in place by simply sliding the lock mechanism rearward. The bottom of the PC-V1020 also features a removable dust filter which covers the power supply intake ventilation area.
