Great review as always. It's always good to see new ideas from Lian Li but I think they should release a shorter version of this case for mATX builds with 280mm AIOs and short GPUs.
Great review! And incredible builds holy shit! I wish you would show more of the building of such rigs. It’s a shame the Pro Art cards don’t really fit with the top GPU support, I was thinking that series of cards would be perfect for this case. My main concern with the case is the lack of direct airflow over the motherboard. I’d be worried about VRM and chipset temps if my Mobo didn’t have good heat sinking for these. And I also don’t like the add on 120 mm fan intake on the back. Hopefully they revise some of this in a second version, because it really is an ideal case where CPU/GPU air flow is concerned, and I love the vertical front mount GPU. Love the channel too btw. Can’t believe I hadn’t come across you before
Amazing build i stumbled on your channel looking for reviews for this case. Your builds are magnificent! I wish I had the funds to buy watercooling like that. It will be a future project for sure.
superb construction I would like to know if it is possible to have the type of materials of the plate for the tubes and also the plate of the psu cable cover and the dimensions is what it is 3d printing or by cnc
Great review as usual and beautiful builds. I am wondering what pump res combo did you use in the full custom loop and did you have to drill some holes to mount it ? Is it a D5 or DDC and would both fit ?
Nice. BUT: You won't be able to get the memory out - the tubes are in the way. The memory is not cooled by a fan (we limit the memory frequency and voltage). The motherboard is not cooled by a fan - similar restrictions for overclocking the processor. There are no places with cooling and vibration protection for hard drives (try hard drives from 20TB and above - it hums like a helicopter and heats up like a stove). And the choice of installation location for the pump is not very convenient for monitoring and adding water.
@GGFEvents Assuming I want to run dual GPU for LLM, is the riser cable long enough to allow a 2nd gpu to sit in the 2nd PCIE slot and still route to the back? Looking at something like a ASUS TUF 3060TI (301mm length)
Even if the pcie risers were a single cable it wouldn’t be so bad, but those flat ribbons are retro 80’s ugly. The cover for the cable is neat though, not sure you need 4mm Alu which is kinda overkill but a plastic cover would be fine
Great build, but damn $150 is "affordable". Perhaps relative to the competition, but it's a shame how far case pricing has gotten out of hand. I remember buying my Define R3 and R4 for arpund $110 and that was a premium case for its time. There was a good period where you had plentiful new and exciting options from Fractal, Phanteks, NZXT, and the like in that $60-90 range.
Those cases were plexiglass, plastic, and very thin metal. Most cases use more premium materials now. However, you can still get cases for those old prices.
I tried to wait for this case, I really wanted it. But once they delayed it into 2024, I just went with the H6 Flow. Now I'm kind of regretting doing that. The white version looks so good.
You're an artist dude, pure and simple. Every build is so sleek and designed so well. Love this.
@@unknowntechio thank you
That PCIE riser hider you crafted should come standard with all of these cases tbh. More useful than the garbage mirror.

Oooooh a new Lian LI case and this looks to be very nice excellent build Stu love ya work

Heya ! can you please share the dimensions for the metal PCI cover ? as I want to 3D print a similar bracket cover that's matte white

@@killerbach thank you. It's a bitspower and it's on the description. I actually double sided taped it to the case :p
Where did you mount the pump/res on the fully looped white build? I was hoping you would go into more depth on your loop layout.
@@AshikSorel1 it's at the very bottom where the HDD cage was. I wanted to cover more but really don't want these videos to go too long and bore people
@@GGFEvents Ah well. I plan on doing a custom loop in this case so I was very much looking forward to the details of your loop. Thanks anyway!
..hope you're able to easily access your back radiator refill port. Not really an optimal position with possible coolant evaporation in mind.
@@hamstergt1869 this is a custom loop. You have a dedicated reservoir. You are thinking of an aio
As usual.. nice build.. 😍
Thanks for the Video.
@@Intel-6969K no problem
great build
What 12VHPWR adapter are you using in the white build?
how did u plum the res on the black one ?? isnt the black plugs where the piping goes ???
@@jmcclo304 they have ports at the bottom

@@xOgichi yes the 510mm one would be long enough but it's going to be a tight squeeze fitting in 2 GPUs

So... you can't add fans in front unless DIY? :(
@@gamerdweebentertainment1616 why would you do that?
@@GGFEvents So I can remove noisy GPU ones.
mantap 👍👍
Anyone tried the b650e stealth ice from gigabyte with this case?
why cant they do a tinted version for white, white always gets the 100% clear treatment
@@Zombie101 because it just looks wrong because the side panel looks black and the rest of the case is white
@@GGFEvents a slight tint would look very nice imo.

@@daggerluke plus this has the riser cable included so technically without it this case is under 100.
@@GGFEventsgood point!
So a super negative pressure case since you have 2x360 exhaust in the rear? No thanks
Allergic to better temperatures?
@@daggerluke dust build-up will be massive, have done that before and seen the results
@@teemu3370 all I do is negative pressure builds and it’s a non-issue if you take five seconds to dust your PC once a month
@@daggerlukeCan't arque with that, since I'm not so dilligent.
Nobody does case reviews like you. Not even close.
