Very nice case I love Lian Li....
110 might be cutting it....
You can always try. But yes the a6-3500 would run perfect.
Lian li should have a decent power supply.
If you want and A8 100W then you can always get a 150W picoPSU with the right tip so you can use the existing hole on that case and don't drill anything.

One negative thing about this case: its not high enough to fit a Big Shuriken in there. (tech spec states max cooler height: 40mm)
I'll most likely give the Scythe Kozuti a try... which is exactly 40mm

be careful with the cooler, the shuriken wont fit!
Lian-Li-PC-Q09F version have a little more room for a cooler (height: 124mm )
compared to the Lian-Li-PC-Q09 (height: 110mm )...
also Lian-Li-PC-Q09F uses an internal Flex PSU.
which can always be replaced by a Pico di Gallo of course.

thanks for the quick responses!
@eskro: totally missed that one..
i actually have a fanless FlexATX PSU left (Fontron FSP150-50TNF) that was supposed to make my n40l Unraid / NAS silent.. but that sounds like the perfect place to put it.
the F Version should also be high enough to put my old satix sky xpress tuner card in there - although i'd have to drill a hole for the antenna cable

One of the things I like about the PC-Q09 is the DVD is under the motherboard. ODDs, PSUs, etc. hanging over motherboards always causes cooling issues. It's too bad the new design has the ODD on top now.
