Great overview, Paul. I can tell you did more research than some other TH-camrs, and you put in more effort actually demonstrating the features. Thanks
Unsure whether it was intentional, but I appreciate the fact that the top TH-camrs I watch for Tech all spaced out their reviews for this case pretty well. You all showed us a different perspective on the case which is always nice, and it wasn't flooded so we start skipping ahead. This will be my next case, if I wasn't self-employed (Construction) I'd have pre-ordered it already, but I'll have to wait until I've done my first week of the New Year lol. Nice review mate!
Rubber Block is for a DUAL PSU setup. You can remove the Drive Cage and install a second PSU. Put the block between the two to relieve stress on the top PSU screws.
I'm really tempted to get one of these cases (in black) just for the ability to build inverted. With how my desk is set up, this would make it actually possible to view inside my case from where I sit.
After watching all the usual reviews of the EVO (Jay, Kyle and Linus and Steve), all of them got stuff wrong; Kyle's was a gong show, I dont think he actually read the instructions as he really messed up a few options and the required steps fopr the options, Jay missed a couple stuff, even Steve missed a few small bits, and Linus read the instructions and built it live on a stream, without pre-reading ... it took 4 and a half hours. Paul, you got all the niggly details correct, even if you had to go backwards a couple times, you explained the case options really well, and remained calm throughout. Paul gets the best in class for this one. Slow clap.
Pitboy got a few things wrong too. Like missing the poor design of the vertical upright mounting option and a host of other oversights that are perceived oversights of the reviewers. The revieweres got it right, the product got it wrong.
The level of attention to detail regarding the mechanical design of this case is incredible. The original was the darling of many a TechTuber and DIYer alike, and I'm sure this one will be even more so. Good job, Lian Li, and thanks to Paul for the great video. Now, for my dilemma; do I go with this gorgeous white one, or go with the sexy gray version? Or maybe mix-and-match with the power of the multiple, multiple add-ons? Gah, so hard to choose! Ah well, I have until my next upgrade to coordinate the build's color scheme.
I love this case I cant wait to buy one, its unfortunate everyone is gonna have one. But I cannot deny that this thing will cover all my needs for the future of my build.
I'm pretty sure you can leave the fan mounts behind because the gpu mount hangs from the top and that metal piece is a separate thing. The problem is that the fans would have to be exhaust as many 30 series cars have that weird backplate cutout that let's air go through the entire card.
@@deadly_mir Yeah - I would set them to exhaust - pulling the air that the GPU fans were pushing away from the card to get "fresh" air on the card constantly, instead of it recircling against a metal backplate... And I think, if you had a light enough GPU cooler, you could leave the fan-bracket in, but I wouldn't leave my 6900XT Red Dragon dangling from only it's case-mounting bracket :D
@@harpoon_bakery162 Put in screwholes for 120-140mm fans and remove the middle of the sheet of aluminium, so fans could be mounted to the other side of the bracket that goes in the side-vent... There's plenty of room for them back there...
Indeed. It's something that is sadly underdone in the market. So many good cases could become great, and great ones become incredible, if their manufacturer took feedback like Lian Li did here.
I remember when the box was just a box to hold the, whatever they were, guts and went under a desk somewhere. All that mattered was what happened on the monitor. (which was simply black with green text when I started playing with them) Here I sit looking at 8 argb fans, an rgb AIO pump, and the argb on my 3080 in a mid size, slightly modified Neo Air case.
The Founders Edition is a Side blower so your blasting some of the air into the top corner. That setup makes more sense with a partner 3 fan/thermal plate card. I got the black Evo and love it. My dream machine is essentially done. Just minor tweaking which is super easy with this case. Great vid as per usual.
.. ive seen three reviews (you, Kyle, Jay) and no one has seemed to realize that the length of the riser cable means you can run it UNDER the motherboard if you use an mATX or mITX board. You might be able to do it with a full ATX as well, depending on how well it bends, by going immediately to the "left", and under/behind the board. Id have to have hands on with it to check that third option.
Have to be honest, much as I like my 4000D, this has to be amongst the prettiest cases on the market. But why have case IO started disappearing so much?
I can only speak for myself, but I *never* use the case IO - I use a remote hub (and wireless headphones) because the IO panel is not within easy reach from where I sit at my desk. Maybe that's a trend the case manufacturers are seeing?
IO`s ARE " Subpar " to Motherboard connections ! The connections that is directly from the Hardware IS Always Best as You Will get all kinds of feedback through the IO Especially in Audio ! , The Motherboard has Certain Protections To Block this = ON The Rear of case = Motherboard IO , usb , audio mic , etc........
Would've been nice if they made a mesh front add on for the OG. I'd love to get it. Not that 3 more fans is at all necessary in my case but I like the idea.
@@toxicturkeyy yeah, the front panel looks bad to me on that case and even if I liked it, it's not compatible. Considering how customizable the new o11 Evo is I had hope they'd make a panel for the original that doesn't look like a tomato slicer.
White has become a popular color I got bored of black. I also switch to White, black and Silver for my new theme. My built came better than I expected. I'm just waiting to get a hold on a 6900XT. which is my last component of my new gaming PC.
I picked up a white 011 D white version for youngest grandson to build computer. I want to buy another just so I can build in it again. Very impressed with the case.
I wonder if the ribbon cable would interfere with big tower coolers 🤔 I also don't think it's the most esthetic pleasing solution to have a ribbon cable wrapping over the motherboard (but that's just eye of the beholder type stuff 😉) Other than that, this case now lands very high up the list as potential case for a future build. 👍
It would be really cool to have a low-profile adapter with a cable going to the riser card instead, that way you could route it discreetly around components. Is there a signaling reason why that can't be done?
I like the design of the 011, I like that it’s not just the standard layout, but at the same time, I feel like for every 5 build. I see 2 uses this case!
Gawdy I love these O11's, I went from the original in 2018 then O11-XL that I have my soft loop build in currently, and now the Evo? Idk it is a beautiful dynamic build that truly has evolved into something great, and its only $150!?! Lian Li is killin it lads.
I have noticed that some graphics-cards have screw-holes on the end of the card ("Flow-trough end"). I thought that those holes were supposed to be used to secure the GPU on prebuilt pc's. It would have been cool if Lian-Li used those.
agree on the riser cable, but what do you mean when you say that you need bigger cable management from the EVO? I was considering the XL, but when this came out a bunch of people said it was a no brainer but I asked the question that I wanted the bigger cable management of the XL, so how does this size up?
I loved the review you did for the case! I went ahead and pre-ordered the case as I have been waiting for an ATX white 011 but I don't see a way to pre-order the accessories. Do you know when that will be available?
The upright mount needed more thought. I’d want to have the fan panel behind the gpu so the card could exhaust out the side. And the riser cable is fugly!
I questioned the cooling of the vertically mounted PSU since it's sandwiched in the backside cavity but now I see that panel is perforated so maybe it's less of a concern. The sponsored build I saw on another channel had 3 bottom mounted intake fans, which appeared to not only suffer from the narrow space provided by the short feet but I could easily envision the airflow being partially blocked by the GPU. I guess providing a positive supply for the GPU but possibly pushing the excess out the rear perforations just below the GPU, while starving the upper exhaust fans so they suck in air from the nearest available unrestricted and unfiltered source...the rear perforations just above the GPU. My oldest son has a white Lian Li Lancool Il mesh (RGB) but the mesh holes are 1.5mm...a bit too large to actually filter much dust. My youngest has a white Phanteks Eclipse P500A D-RGB that has 1mm mesh so it's a little better but still not perfect. Meanwhile I ended up with a tossed aside white Fractal Design Meshify C that I swapped the front foam filter for 0.125mm stainless steel woven mesh and replaced the feet with 3" legs. I had to make metal Z brackets to push the triple front intake fans forward about an inch so the Gaming X Trio GPU would fit. Plus I had to cut out the bent metal front frame (the wire chase?) so the E-ATX MB would fit...but everything looks and works great. It’s easy to modify cases, but I'm not sure how that Lian Li 011 EVO could be helped. I should mention I gifted a couple Lian Li Lancool 215 X Gaming cases and they've been dust magnets, they may have the same 1.5mm mesh holes as the Lancool Il mesh.
Well, you've done your homework. I'd really like to know if there is a way to mod this as all the other features seem great. I have this on pre-order but am wondering if I should hold out until these things are addresses with an update. I'm guessing they could fix these shortcomings in the forthcoming EVO XL iteration of this same box (assuming of course that it's on the horizon). You made a brilliant deduction that the 1.5mm will not filter dust. I never considered that and would be one of the reasons to cancel my pre-order. I would love to know if you come up with anything on this. I'd hate for everything else this case offers to go to waste.
Hi Paul, love the channel and the videos 🥰🥰 QQ: does the O11 Evo allow for motherboard flip sided ⬆⬇ (top of mobo tray ends up the bottom on the left side mount - mobo on right side of case) so the gpu intakes from the top of the case as well as 180 degrees flip sided ➡➡ or. ⬅⬅ (where the left side of mobo panel ends up left side on the opposite sides mount -mobo on left side of case) so the gpu can intake from the bottom as per normal setup?
Very good pre-view. Excellent! Just for my cent ... the raven 02 case was a vertical mobo case, with the IO on top if you get me. probably still the best airflow case "in the world" ...
G'day Paul & Joe, Lian Li Roman have done a great job with this case & other variants, but after all the Detailed work coming up with all the Options for Layout when it comes to the X16 PCIe Cable in the Upright GPU Mount Kit I feel they just went 🤷♂️
Very good and practical review of the case Paul. Don’t think the upright GPU mount looks particularly good considering the ugly look of the support bracket at the bottom and the pci riser cable running across the front of the case. I think the riser is only long enough to route behind motherboard tray and plug into bottom pci slot. Still looking forward to watching your build in the case.
I hope Lian Li addresses this bad design you speak of immediately. And I'm sure they will knowing them. We will see an additional accessory probably within 2 to 3 weeks (just a guess)
Great intro video to the case can you use the vertical gpu mount in the inverted layout? I have a snow white edition on pre order but have not gotten any of the accessories yet trying to decide if the vertical gpu mount will work inverted
it has flaws, i would not buy it unless and until they release new accessories to deal with the awful design asthtetics of the riser cable dominating our view of the right side of the mobo (obstructed view and downright ugly)
Great case, Thanks for reviewing it for us, cannot wait for the build you will be doing with this case. I am not a showmen, nor do I care for RGB (love some of the RGB builds) just not my direction, the ease of access, the cooling potential, are strait on target for me. Thanks Paul for another great intro to the potential of another case.
I have just spent the day transferring my hardware from my old Corsair 780t to the grey Eco, but I am curious if I want to fit a Distro Block in the future do I have to use the fan bracket on the side or can I use the hard drive bracket as I have 3 3.5 HDDs so I need that bracket. I am really loving the case at the moment
@@TheITonyO I can't keep my I9-12900k from thermo throttling with just air. I will need to do some water cooling. Fractal Torrent will still be used here just not for my main game machine.
the only problematic compoent for the white case is the ugly black GPU cards which dominate the market. I've only seen one white 3090 (but i haven't looked hard) and it was the Vision card from EVGA (I think). All other components I can find with white options.
Can you get with your old NewEgg contacts and find out why the hell they keep pushing back the pre-orders when all TH-camrs, other countries, and even some retailers in the U.S. are shipping the case already, but we're stuck waiting on NewEgg's horrendous shipping.
They need to make an XL of this case with proper 420 radiator support. Until then I can't justify this case or the XL. Much less the XL not having a front Mesh panel.
Feels like an old design now,"lipstick on a fine pig" now.They pretty much look the same unless you pay too much for the parts that make it interesting.Good review Paul.Bought the O11 air and put two 200mm fans at front.But it's an old design now.
Paul are you kidding me on making that riser cable a Strimmer. That mother is huge and needs something else to cover that hideous thing. Can you imagine if they did, it would cover you RGB RAM and any other RGB on the mobo, no way brother to huge. In my opinion!
what they need to do with this case from what i've seen from the past couple days from builds, is the pcie riser needs to be longer, because then while the gpu is in the upright position is then route the cable through the grommets right next to it, run it behind the motherboard, then it can come up below from that grommet into the pcie lane. the way it is now ruins any sort of cleanliness builds would have with it just running diagonally across the board like that.
It would look alot better, but I don't think it was by choice, I think any longer and it effects the performance of the card due to the extended length.
My EVGA 3080 FTW3 Vector2 water set set doesn't fit properly on a vertical position in this case. Its too close to the CPU and touches the fittings so I wouldn't suggest it if you plan to put 3 bottom fans and a vertical GPU there as big as a 3080+, unless you don't mind the less airflow efficiency and higher temps inside.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the whole family Kisses and hugs to you all.💖🎄. And thank you for a fantastic year of technology, in addition to the overpriced hardware.
It was a cool case until you had to remove the side fan bracket for GPU support. I'm still thinking about getting one but I see a Dermel in its future.
I know there’s all this hype, but I just can’t force myself to like it. I can’t give it a better than “meh“… Maybe that’s because I’m interested in going the ITX route next build I do?
I wondering, could you not mount that stabilizing lower GPU bracket on the opposite/inside of the graphics card (same side as the PCI-E connector)? Looking at it it seemed like you'd be able to do that, but maybe not. I really hate the way that ribbon cable has to cross overtop of the motherboard like that. It's be cool if you could route it in behind the motherboard and up from the bottom. Anyway I want to get this case, I'll probably do that this fall after we've moved, I really like the looks of it. I'm currently running a white Corsair Air 540 that I've modded a bit. I stripped it down and painted the grills white, and also the interior of the case is now white. Looks a lot better if you ask me hehe... I also modded the rear to allow me to install a vertical mount for my GPU. It's been a great case but I'm looking for something new and a little more compact.
Does the mesh panels on the side of the case, under and on the top, protect from dust? As in, do I need to buy additional dust filters and used them beneath these mesh panels?
Hey, this vid got me worried if I'm planning my build right. I was thinking my 3090 Kingpin 360 rad will go to the side of this case and another 360 AIO for the CPU to go to the top. You think its possible or they would conflict with each other. A bit concerned here.
I must say that Lian Li has come a long way since the 1980's when I first got into building my own personal computers. Very nice video, Paul.
Hmmm you have been choosen to be next in line as I see.
Great overview, Paul. I can tell you did more research than some other TH-camrs, and you put in more effort actually demonstrating the features. Thanks
Thank you for the close up camera shots. First video allowing me to see the details in quality. I've got my preorder in for this case. Cannot wait!
Unsure whether it was intentional, but I appreciate the fact that the top TH-camrs I watch for Tech all spaced out their reviews for this case pretty well. You all showed us a different perspective on the case which is always nice, and it wasn't flooded so we start skipping ahead. This will be my next case, if I wasn't self-employed (Construction) I'd have pre-ordered it already, but I'll have to wait until I've done my first week of the New Year lol. Nice review mate!
Rubber Block is for a DUAL PSU setup. You can remove the Drive Cage and install a second PSU. Put the block between the two to relieve stress on the top PSU screws.
ty i was wondering if they messed something up since i cant think on where you would put a block of rubber
It has to be best low profile case I’ve ever seen. So clean and pretty
I'm really tempted to get one of these cases (in black) just for the ability to build inverted. With how my desk is set up, this would make it actually possible to view inside my case from where I sit.
thank you so much for this very in depth vid!!
Thanks! It’s a good unboxing when I can see how to put it back in the box.
The eye for detail is amazing. I bet it took a lot of iterations to get this good.
Thanks Paul! Looking forward to see the build (& build process) 👍
After watching all the usual reviews of the EVO (Jay, Kyle and Linus and Steve), all of them got stuff wrong; Kyle's was a gong show, I dont think he actually read the instructions as he really messed up a few options and the required steps fopr the options, Jay missed a couple stuff, even Steve missed a few small bits, and Linus read the instructions and built it live on a stream, without pre-reading ... it took 4 and a half hours.

Meanwhile I ended up with a tossed aside white Fractal Design Meshify C that I swapped the front foam filter for 0.125mm stainless steel woven mesh and replaced the feet with 3" legs. I had to make metal Z brackets to push the triple front intake fans forward about an inch so the Gaming X Trio GPU would fit. Plus I had to cut out the bent metal front frame (the wire chase?) so the E-ATX MB would fit...but everything looks and works great. It’s easy to modify cases, but I'm not sure how that Lian Li 011 EVO could be helped. I should mention I gifted a couple Lian Li Lancool 215 X Gaming cases and they've been dust magnets, they may have the same 1.5mm mesh holes as the Lancool Il mesh.
Well, you've done your homework. I'd really like to know if there is a way to mod this as all the other features seem great. I have this on pre-order but am wondering if I should hold out until these things are addresses with an update. I'm guessing they could fix these shortcomings in the forthcoming EVO XL iteration of this same box (assuming of course that it's on the horizon). You made a brilliant deduction that the 1.5mm will not filter dust. I never considered that and would be one of the reasons to cancel my pre-order. I would love to know if you come up with anything on this. I'd hate for everything else this case offers to go to waste.
I couldn't care less about this case, love you Paul AND Joe!

can still mount the fans behind the gpu using that mount instead of the plate. works great and great temps
Hi Paul, love the channel and the videos 🥰🥰 QQ: does the O11 Evo allow for motherboard flip sided ⬆⬇ (top of mobo tray ends up the bottom on the left side mount - mobo on right side of case) so the gpu intakes from the top of the case as well as 180 degrees flip sided ➡➡ or. ⬅⬅ (where the left side of mobo panel ends up left side on the opposite sides mount -mobo on left side of case) so the gpu can intake from the bottom as per normal setup?

Very good pre-view. Excellent!
Just for my cent ... the raven 02 case was a vertical mobo case, with the IO on top if you get me. probably still the best airflow case "in the world" ...

90 bucks to have an ugly pcie riser cable across all your stuff its horrible linus just built it and hated that part

G'day Paul & Joe,
Lian Li Roman have done a great job with this case & other variants, but after all the Detailed work coming up with all the Options for Layout when it comes to the X16 PCIe Cable in the Upright GPU Mount Kit I feel they just went 🤷♂️
exactly, do you anticipate some additional accessories that will fix this oversight?
@@harpoon_bakery162 🤷♂️
These just happen to come back in stock on Newegg last night. I ordered one
🖕 Congratulations you among the selected winners claim your PC via telegram 📩⬆️⬆️,
Very good and practical review of the case Paul. Don’t think the upright GPU mount looks particularly good considering the ugly look of the support bracket at the bottom and the pci riser cable running across the front of the case. I think the riser is only long enough to route behind motherboard tray and plug into bottom pci slot. Still looking forward to watching your build in the case.
I hope Lian Li addresses this bad design you speak of immediately. And I'm sure they will knowing them. We will see an additional accessory probably within 2 to 3 weeks (just a guess)

So far best review I've seen on this case. The upright seems pointless for me, but that's just my opinion.

Flip the GPU support bracket so that it's on the "bottom" of the GPU and towards the back of the case.
Just got through watching LTT’s 4 hour build in this case (inverted mode) - sweet case but Jesus it’s a lot of work
🖕 Congratulations you among the selected winners claim your PC via telegram 📩⬆️⬆️:
Great intro video to the case can you use the vertical gpu mount in the inverted layout? I have a snow white edition on pre order but have not gotten any of the accessories yet trying to decide if the vertical gpu mount will work inverted
it has flaws, i would not buy it unless and until they release new accessories to deal with the awful design asthtetics of the riser cable dominating our view of the right side of the mobo (obstructed view and downright ugly)
@@harpoon_bakery162 not the mount i was talking about i was talking about the normal vertical mount not the side mount
@@Rashuge is it bad or worse?
Great case, Thanks for reviewing it for us, cannot wait for the build you will be doing with this case. I am not a showmen, nor do I care for RGB (love some of the RGB builds) just not my direction, the ease of access, the cooling potential, are strait on target for me. Thanks Paul for another great intro to the potential of another case.

PauL: I don't know if the 3090FE will fit, it was just the closest I had arround.....
Happy Holidays sir
I have just spent the day transferring my hardware from my old Corsair 780t to the grey Eco, but I am curious if I want to fit a Distro Block in the future do I have to use the fan bracket on the side or can I use the hard drive bracket as I have 3 3.5 HDDs so I need that bracket. I am really loving the case at the moment
LOL, Paul read my mind when I saw that brick looking package with the “kilo of coke” comment 😀.
He read all of our minds. Feds are watching this development closely.

Amazing work Lian Li and Der8auer. Would love to see an inverted build with upright gpu orientation, must be good temps under load.

Great job. I really want to replace my Fractal Torrent with one of those. Even with black components a white case seems like a good looking choice.
😆 really??? I'm digging the torrent more, but I'm more able HAF.
@@TheITonyO I can't keep my I9-12900k from thermo throttling with just air. I will need to do some water cooling. Fractal Torrent will still be used here just not for my main game machine.
@@aldimore Noctua NH-D15?
the only problematic compoent for the white case is the ugly black GPU cards which dominate the market. I've only seen one white 3090 (but i haven't looked hard) and it was the Vision card from EVGA (I think). All other components I can find with white options.
I was just looking at the 011 Air Mini - I think that will be my next case
Does it stay pretty cool?
I have the mini, I like it a lot
Wait, the front panel i/o is hugging the floor? Weird.
Can you get with your old NewEgg contacts and find out why the hell they keep pushing back the pre-orders when all TH-camrs, other countries, and even some retailers in the U.S. are shipping the case already, but we're stuck waiting on NewEgg's horrendous shipping.

Nice that it is so customisable.

They need to make an XL of this case with proper 420 radiator support. Until then I can't justify this case or the XL. Much less the XL not having a front Mesh panel.
Feels like an old design now,"lipstick on a fine pig" now.They pretty much look the same unless you pay too much for the parts that make it interesting.Good review Paul.Bought the O11 air and put two 200mm fans at front.But it's an old design now.
Can you let me know of a design that's fresh, I would be interested to know of something better than this (i can always cancel my pre-order)
🖕 Congratulations you among the selected winners claim your PC via telegram 📩⬆️⬆️:
Paul are you kidding me on making that riser cable a Strimmer. That mother is huge and needs something else to cover that hideous thing. Can you imagine if they did, it would cover you RGB RAM and any other RGB on the mobo, no way brother to huge. In my opinion!
🖕 Congratulations you among the selected winners claim your PC via telegram 📩⬆️⬆️:
what they need to do with this case from what i've seen from the past couple days from builds, is the pcie riser needs to be longer, because then while the gpu is in the upright position is then route the cable through the grommets right next to it, run it behind the motherboard, then it can come up below from that grommet into the pcie lane. the way it is now ruins any sort of cleanliness builds would have with it just running diagonally across the board like that.
It would look alot better, but I don't think it was by choice, I think any longer and it effects the performance of the card due to the extended length.
@@Zalagar619 Oh crap, but couldn't they make the cable with the proper heavier gauge wire that would solved this?
My EVGA 3080 FTW3 Vector2 water set set doesn't fit properly on a vertical position in this case. Its too close to the CPU and touches the fittings so I wouldn't suggest it if you plan to put 3 bottom fans and a vertical GPU there as big as a 3080+, unless you don't mind the less airflow efficiency and higher temps inside.
I wish this case was actually for sale anywhere. It's listed on Lian Li's website, but is listed nowhere for sale.
🖕 Congratulations you among the selected winners claim your PC via telegram 📩⬆️⬆️,
The EVO will also fit a Noctua D15. The original version doesn't have enough clearance.

Flip the case: 23:58 It would be nice if you could factory order the different orientation.

It was a cool case until you had to remove the side fan bracket for GPU support. I'm still thinking about getting one but I see a Dermel in its future.
I know there’s all this hype, but I just can’t force myself to like it. I can’t give it a better than “meh“… Maybe that’s because I’m interested in going the ITX route next build I do?
I wondering, could you not mount that stabilizing lower GPU bracket on the opposite/inside of the graphics card (same side as the PCI-E connector)? Looking at it it seemed like you'd be able to do that, but maybe not. I really hate the way that ribbon cable has to cross overtop of the motherboard like that. It's be cool if you could route it in behind the motherboard and up from the bottom.
Anyway I want to get this case, I'll probably do that this fall after we've moved, I really like the looks of it. I'm currently running a white Corsair Air 540 that I've modded a bit. I stripped it down and painted the grills white, and also the interior of the case is now white. Looks a lot better if you ask me hehe... I also modded the rear to allow me to install a vertical mount for my GPU. It's been a great case but I'm looking for something new and a little more compact.
I had the pukey rainbow RGB light on this case for weeks. Thanks for showing me where the config button was haha
Does the mesh panels on the side of the case, under and on the top, protect from dust? As in, do I need to buy additional dust filters and used them beneath these mesh panels?
Looks like a nice case. I just don't like the idea glass as a part of a case.
Beautiful case!!!
Hey, this vid got me worried if I'm planning my build right. I was thinking my 3090 Kingpin 360 rad will go to the side of this case and another 360 AIO for the CPU to go to the top. You think its possible or they would conflict with each other. A bit concerned here.
