I have a question How can I control The Inclued Fans in this case ? I want tk go with a Blue and Pink Retro futuristic Colour Scheme So is it possible The set the Fans at a half blue half Pink (Colour Constant and not Changing) And also can I Control it from the Motherboard Software (I will be using MSI)
@@AVTechy it certainly did, as i stated in other comment i wanted to find out the top clearence for Arctic Liquid Freezer top mounted and after searchin trough the whole youtube and reddit, your video was the only one that made a clear and direct answer!
This was an astoundingly thorough, well organized, and deftly executed video! I've just brought this case and your video deserves to be viewed by all who are considering.
Good Lord man 😱 that was a banger review 🤯 The information, visualization and angles, soft good visible lighting (background slightly darker, sweet touch). Excellent reference to your TD review on the end screen. I'm in shock...
This one was a long slog, serves me right for reviewing something from Lian Li :P Glad it worked though, and yeah I had to tip the hat to the TD500 at the end after the nudge :D
Bought the Performance version of this case, best use of the cash and also the first Lian Li product I have used, can't recommend enough, easy to build in, tonnes of options and expandability. Build quality is superb and I actually prefer the magnets as you know it's closed and it just feels satisfying. You are great at doing reviews so keep it up, subscribed and wish I found your channel sooner bud :)
I personally like the solid "thunk" when you close the bottom side panels. I know it's a bit loud, and you showed that it causes some wear and tear, but I'm okay with both of those things, at least when the upside is what seems to be a solid, secure magnetic connection where I don't need to worry about the panels falling down on their own. How often are we really expecting to be opening those panels, especially in an environment where the louder noise is going to matter? How many people build PCs in rooms where other people are sleeping? And paint is going to wear off, more so at points of physical contact like that. It's to be expect, in my mind, and probably won't effect the exterior appearance of the chassis much anyway. BTW, great review, as always. I'm glad to see the channel is growing (if slower than it deserves). Keep up the good work!
Yeah that's fair, it certainly doesn't detract from the overall feel of the case. I would have liked to see a touch of foam/a little more foam to prevent the clash and remove the problem entirely, but it's not a big deal by any means.
I bought the non mesh Lancool 2 in white. Also bought the white 360 Galahad Aoi. Ive loaded it with tons of good stuff including the EVGA 3070 FTW Ultra. the 3950x stays cool as does the video card. This case gives you a lot of options and easy to work with. And ya im a 64 year old guy that loves to game!
"It wouldn't be AV Techy without a compatibility slide!" Definitely a hallmark of the channel's reviews. I'm still running my Raijintek Styx build that I was inspired to build after your 2018 videos on the case showing how PSU and GPU sizing needed to be planned based on case dimensions. Great case comparison methodology in these new videos, though I do agree either lower rpm test fans or high dBA benchmark seems needed to stay out of the stall zone. Keep up the awesome reviews!
Surprised at the quality of your review. This case looks so convenient to build in and I hope I get the chance to build a pc in one soon. Great job mate!
I built in this exact case recently. I must say, If I needed to purchase a new case, I would buy this one. It is SUCH a performer, looker, and value. At this price I see no reason not to go this route if it works for you compatibility wise.
@@MrJSReaper I bought the Performance version and slapped in some Noctua fans for case cooling. Quiet and cool. Ridiculous easy case to work in and it cools parts really well. I don't know what Lian Li did, but damn this case is good. IMO, it should be the foundation for future cases. I'm still agog at the ridiculous amount of drive support.
This is the most build-useful review on this case I've seen. The warning about the slot plate screws is great, (and totally agree) . Regarding the magnetic catches--the noise seems hardly relevant---how many times will one need access to the basement after the build? Indeed it suggest that the magnets are strong enough to not need a screw or latch mechanism if the system is moved. I may have a build coming up, pending my boss' budget approval, and your review definitely confirms why this case is the best for me to build with (cooling efficiency is it's other great feature, which I'll also need). Great job!
Thanks. the only review that compares it to an Aerocool Aero One, I have this case and was thinking of going for a Lancool mesh. With this it is clear to me that the difference in temperatures is not much. Keep it up good reviews ✌️ one more subscriber 👍🏻
Solid review! I purchased this case 3ish years ago (I think full price) and I absolutely love it. I’m doing my 2nd build in this case currently. It looks incredible and has fantastic airflow. Very happy with this buy!
When I was searching for a review for this case, I decided to pass over the popular names and check out a lesser known channel. I'm super glad that I did. This review was quite thorough. The visuals to display information about fans, clearances, etc were excellent. Your video answered all the questions and concerns that I had. Bravo! 👏👏👏
Well done. Not only all the information I need to make a proper decision but all of that information delivered in entertaining fashion. This is a nice bit of work.
I cant believe my dream case have these back wiring covers! Cant wait to buy it next year! It is right after few months of my birthday. On Winter Next Year I hope that 3060TI prices go down like please made my last year a teenager good
The hard drive cage can be removed via the front panel. Just remove the 3-fan assembly and slide out the front. It'll take a bit of force to get up over the edge, but it can be done. I've built two computers with this case and am building a 3rd soon. This case can do it all. This case has enough room to do any kind of build. One day I'm going to attempt a custom water cool build in it.
The drive cage in the bottom can be completely removed by removing the case front panel as well as the 3 front fans. Then you can turn the drive cage sideways and slide it out the front of the case
You can remove the drive tray by easily sliding it out the front. You must take off the fan array, and the plate on the basement cover near the fans. Then you rotate it 90 degrees and it comes right out the front.
Thanks for the review. This one is like $50 more than the Cooler Master MasterBox TD500 Mesh White , but I think the Cooler Master is the one to go for me especially for a first time builder. Great video once again.
I have this exact case but the performance model it’s so badass I love it I just used my Corsair Sp120 Elite RGB fans from a Corsair iCUE 4000X case I retired for the front intake and it looks so clean and sexy and I was able to fit 11 fans in this case! 6 in my Corsair H150i Pro RGB XT 360mm AIO the two 140mm fans that came with care as exhaust for the top another 120mm for the rear and two on the basement shroud to help aid cooling my gpu psu and hard drives told capacity 5TB of storage 2X 2TB drives 1TB drive and 256gb Samsung SSD. Your video deserves all the views for people who are considering getting the performance model or RGB variant well executed my friend!
Dude for your age you are the best pc case reviewer! I was trying to find if those 3 rgb fans are inlcuded with this specific case and i think you said they are :D Also well done even noticing those heavy screws which are less practical than the usual ones. Keep it going man :D
Lian Li has the air flow market right now with their Lancool 2 mesh and 215. I went from a InWin 303 to a Lancool 2 mesh, it was night and day with the temps.
I subbed to your channel and liked this video for the tip given at 6:26 I have this exact case and recently had to move my top 2 120mm fans to place a radiator and fans above for cpu water cooling. When I looked at the bottom to relocate the fans I saw there were screw holes already in place (I thought this was so smaller fans can be put here). After watching this part of your video though I now realize I can just remove the two metal plates and use their screw holes for my 120mm fans. Long comment but here I thought I knew everything there was to know about this case (have had it for about a year now).
great review! i recently bought this case for my first gaming pc. though the issue on the magnetic side panel sound is a bit of over-reaction in my humble opinion, it's not like i'm gonna open it every day.
On the side from your regular vids, I'd like to see someone like Newegg pay you to do a vid for ALL or their $100+ cases & some of their top selling $50-100 cases.
Very nice review. Lot of people seem to be complaining about the fan noise. What is your opinion on fan noise when they're not at their 100% speed? I was thinking maybe I can reduce their max RPM without losing much cooling performance.
I appreciate your detail in this review, but with all due respect I think some of it was a bit overkill knit picking. Lian-Li is one of the highest quality producers of PC products if not the highest in my opinion. Truth be known you could always find something that does not suit ones fancy in any product. This case in my opinion has so many positives offered that some of the points made here as negatives are really splitting hairs. I feel price for performance is balanced and the quality of materials makes the cost justifiable.
If highlighting small shortfalls in a product is nit picking, which it probably is, then that's exactly the content I want to produce. It's only fair to highlight issues, however small, when they exist. I do it with all products, and frankly this kind of comment feels to me like it's been written by someone who hasn't watched the whole video, because someone who had would know even I downplayed the issues in light of all the positives. Just to be completely straight about this, even if a product is really really good, like this one, I still need to highlight problems that I encounter, no matter how small. That's what makes the review well rounded, and fully detailed. As far as I'm concerned, paint damage due to the closing mechanism of a panel is problematic, which may be a small deal to some, but a big deal to others. Highlighting such a problem is only useful information, as without it that might be a negative surprise after purchasing it. Lian Li or not, nobody's special and every notable detail is worth mentioning.
Great video very thorough and in-depth I've been thinking about getting this case and this was an excellent review and walkthrough of it and made up my mind I definitely want to get it now thanks for all the info helped me make my decision for sure.

Colored rad fitment chart w/measurements is totally a keeper. Another solid review! Cheers!
Nice, not sure whether to adapt it for the mail compatibility slides or only use it when necessary.

Can you help me? I have this case but the rgb lights on the fan are really faint. I build the pc myself so I don’t know if I did something wrong.
Great review. Was looking for a case and this one looked good due to all the airflow and the fact that it is future proof.
Haha, exactly what I was looking for at 6:55! Awesome!
I might of missed it, but with the 2x fans you can mount above the PSU, should you have them blowing air into the pc or out threw the psu section ?
They're there to support the GPU, so in would be best. But this doesn't always work well and typically isn't worth doing in my experience.
I initially *settled* for the performance variant but now that my build is complete im in love with this case.
Very in-depth review. Watching it after I bought the case just to guide me through!
To take the drive cage out you need to take the fans off the front and remove the solid black basement panel and you can get it out that way
first video iv seen from this channel, the level of detail was great, and I like time stamps form when coming back to reference parts of the video.
Wow that’s an amazing review, my bro. Literally one of the best case reviews that I’ve ever seen.
Best review I have seen on this case so far, great video!
His tears about the magnets and their click noise was all I needed to see and hear, NEXT!

Bought this case.. a lovely case to build in but it's HEAVY AF too 😅
Yeah I was going to mention how heavy it was, but it slipped my mind when drafting the script. It's as heavy as dual system cases haha
High quality products are generally heavier.
do the 3 fans at the front all have to be connected separately?
Or are they linked together into 1 fan header
