First, there was the height-adjustable desk that encouraged standing while working. Then came the motorized version, taking the chore out of adjustment. And now, we have a motorized standing desk that’s also a PC. Folks, meet the Lian Li DK-07X Standing Desk PC Case.
First revealed in February 2024, Lian Li has followed through on the prototype and made it a reality. However, they butchered the idea of including the 30-inch OLED screen. Maybe next time, Lian Li. Maybe next time. Still, this concept is undeniably intriguing and should be a dream come true for neat freaks. Forget mini-PCs trying to blend in by hiding behind monitors or all-in-ones locking you into a fixed screen size. This bad boy puts everything you need right in the place where you work—whether standing or seated.
And yes, it’s a “healthier choice” standing desk with motorized height adjustments, ranging from a sitting height of 676 mm (26.6 inches) to a standing height of 1,162 mm (45.7 inches). The desktop real estate is equally impressive, offering a whopping 1,480 x 805 mm (58.3 x 31.7 inches) area. For those crunching numbers, that’s a sprawling 11,914 cm² (1,847 square inches) of space—big enough to throw in your cat and your coffee.
The tabletop features a 2 mm (0.08-inch) thick brushed aluminum surface, with a 6 mm (0.24-inch) thick tempered glass panel in the center, perfect for gazing into your hardware as you procrastinate. Oh, and it can hold up to 100 kg (220 lbs) of additional weight, so feel free to pile on whatever gadgets (or snacks) you want.
Fitting its futuristic vibe, the desk has a built-in wireless charging pad. But wait—this isn’t just any wireless charging pad. It pops up to reveal two USB ports: one USB-C and one USB-A, letting you charge multiple devices simultaneously. And that’s not all. Being a full-fledged PC case, it comes loaded with more ports.
The front edge features dual USB 3.2 Type-C ports, dual USB 3.1 Type-A ports, and a 3.5 mm audio jack, alongside power and reset buttons. To keep the chaos in check, it also includes a rear-mounted cable tray for cable management. And if you’re still hoarding knick-knacks, it has two drawers—one on each side—to help with organization.
The coolest part? This desk can accommodate two systems. Yes, you read that right. It offers single or dual-system flexibility with two motherboard trays featuring adjustable cable-concealing shield brackets. These trays can handle everything from mini-ITX to E-ATX, according to Lian Li.
Additionally, GPU installation is equally versatile. With adjustable expansion slot orientation, the desk supports GPUs up to 383 mm (15.1 inches) long. Whether you prefer a vertical or horizontal setup, this desk has your back—and your GPU.
For those looking to declutter seriously, the Lian Li DK-07X Standing Desk PC Case might just be the solution. As for the price, it’s set at US$1,399. That’s a steal when you consider it’s a motorized height-adjustable desk and a high-end PC case. Plus, it’s from Lian Li, a company that’s been in the PC case game for decades. These folks have been around since the pre-millennial era—back when we were all busy assembling our beige boxes.
