For anybody wondering about the fan at the back of the case. You can take off one of the metal sides on the SL140 fan to make it fit the case. It's only being held with glue. I had to do that to make it fit the Lian Li 216 case. If you don't take off one of the metal sides on the fan, it's really hard to close the tempered glass panel completely at the rear of the case.
Just adding this: Lian li 140 infinity fans do fit at the exhaust, just takes some light slamming to get it in
LOL I might try this - I watched this vid awhile back and ordered the 140 and it didn't fit without turning it sideways (was on back order) and I swear it said 140 on here.. wasn't paying attention that they swapped to a 120 for cinematic mode
can you put the metal sides back?
@geraldsalas3213 yes, but you need adhesive.
شكرا لك 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wow your feature breakdown of the case looks awesome. The rotatable slot covers in the back seems like a pretty slick feature for this case.
Really like the smaller and well priced Lian Li cases. Hope they make more!! This case has the same panel clips for the glass as Corsair 4000D. Which used to be the cheapest best mid tower you can get, even tho it costs almost double now.
Been eagerly waiting for your 216 build vid since the case was first announced. Looks great!
I love it that the front I/O can be repositioned down low. That's the perfect spot, imo.
You’ve always had the most well-produced videos of this kind! And dat music! Thank you so much for all these beautiful reviews.
Just pre ordered mine in black thank you so much for the review keep up the great videos much love from Florida
Very cool build I have the Lian Li 215 in my build from early last year
Oh my gosh! Incredibly amazing production quality. Visuals, music, and build design are on point, as always! Thanks for the EYE CANDY 🍭
I pre ordered the black rgb version early this morning. Super pumped for this case.
Nice one. Im sure you'll love it!
Another great case from Lian Li, Lancool 2 owner here and love that case, the Lancool 3 looks superb with the much needed updates and now this...choices, choices...thanks for sharing guys 👌
I am also a Lancool 2 owner and absolutely love it!
@unholydonutsFR
congratulations for your musical choice! spectacular! beautiful videos and footage every time! Bravo
Thanks! It helps that I make all the music too 😉
I really like how you've started editing in the names of each part during the build itself. I really prefer seeing the names in the moment, rather than going through all the pieces once again afterwards.
It makes it easier for me as well 🙂
i like that he did that bc i was worried about fan orientation when i get my hands on this case, i use 3 120s and 2 140 uni fans and wasnt sure if the 140s should be mounted at the top or bottom, thanks gearseekers!
Thanks for review. It looks amazing. It's good idea about front panel dust filter.
Great video on the 216, thanks!
The lady of the house walked in during the b-roll and said "That is a beautiful build!"
I then reminded her that her current build in the white NZXT H500i was inspired by this channel. Cheers GS team!
Hahaha that's amazing!
She has impeccable taste 🤣🤣
This follows on from the great performance of the Lancool 2 Mesh, 215, O11 XL, and Lancool 3.
That performance for that price is a no brainer. I can't blame Lian Li for sticking with their current tooling as its consistently producing winners.
Great vid as always Nick! I gotta say, I'm not feeling much excitement for ANY of the cases released lately, except the Antec DP503 which I really like the look of. I reckon if I was fresh building today I'd pull the trigger on that
Banger of a video fams, this case looks amazing. Keep up the hard work
Impressive reviews and very nice build. Thanks for sharing.
I'm glad I waited on buying a case. I'm definitely looking forward to this one.
Is amazing how this case looks so clean.
great looking built, love the case.
Love the music in this video: very reminiscent of Mass Effect.
Looking forward to seeing the black version of this case.
Excellent video fams, super clean build. Pretty decent case. #RoadTo200K
I did watch the video and likely missed the part where you mention it but you can move the motherboard up/down by around 20mm to give more room at the top (air cooling mode) or bottom (air cooling mode) dependent upon where you need the room.
Should also note that to use the additional [optional] fan on the back you need to set the motherboard to the higher placement (air cooling mode) so that the GPU now uses the top bracket on the back of the case allowing for HDMI/DP cable to still be plugged in. So, if you want to use the extra fan be sure to verify that your motherboard has the primary GPU PCIE slot as the SECOND one and not the first (shifting mobo up remember). Most motherboards should be fine however, there are exceptions...
Awesome review..Looking forward for the asus tuf gt502 review next...
got mine in black color , great pc case
I used the 216 for my Gaming PC for such a long time. It really is and excellent case :)
That build is just gorgeous
That is a really cool wallpaper. I'd love to use it for my desktop
Excellent review of a great case!!
great video, awesome case and build 🙂👍
Great video on this beautiful case even with the “Capacitive” thumb screws 😂.
Great video, thank you. Just checking, when you were talking about the rear fan not fitting, I assume you meant that the 140 didn’t fit, so you used a 120?
Been waiting for this since they announced it. Looks so good.
Yeah it's pretty good for the money!
I agree with using a 240 mm AIO on the i5-13600K. A 360 would obviously be more esthetically pleasing to the eye, but probably an unnecessary extra expense. Personally, I'm a huge fan of the 280 mm AIO and it fits on the top of this case, so that's probably what I'll be using in my build.
I placed an order for a black one (RGB, seems like that's the only option available), pretty excited about. I love my current Meshify C, but with a NH D15 and 3070 Ti gaming OC, it's a really tight fit, working on it is a bit of a nightmare.
I just ordered mine after watching your video. Thanks.
Great video man, appreciate it! Also your cat is beautiful!
Your music definitely compliments your visuals. You were born to do this.
Thanks! 🙏
I just preordered this case. I will be swapping out the front 2 fans for 2x 140mm lightwings.
Absolutely love the case. Just built in it. Excellent case.
@Gear Seekers, love your music always!!
That LTT screwdriver flex nice!
Wish they put a fine mesh filter at the front though
Not all people have a super clean room
I need this case!! Great job!
Thanks!
Does a 360aio fit mounted at the top?
Having bought one for myself to substitute my aging Zalman Z11 plus, I gotta say that in terms of air flow this thing can push!. I get better temps with the 216 than with my old Z11 completely open. I have had it for almost a year now and having build around 20 PC's for mostly friends I can say I LOVED building and cleaning this case, it is easy, accessible, practical and you can tell there was thought put into its design. Easily hands down best out of the 3 cases I have ever owned.
Now for my 3 complains... 1 - I wish the fan in the back had arbg but no biggie, the fan is quiet and does its work well out of the box, also very easy to replace.
2 - The whole power button thing that you can move to the side of the case its tricky because it is a VERY TIGHT fit for the cables, wish there was a bit more space between the fans and the chassis for an easier swap, not an issue if you leave the power button on top.
3 - My BIGGEST complain, the HDD shroud does NOT come with a anti-vibration rubber and the drawer thing where the HDD goes has some wiggle so whenever the HDD ramps up, you will listen to it loud and clear due to the side also being meshed. Yes, I am aware I do use it with my old backup HDD that is 10 years old and it is naturally noisy by now but I did not had this issue in my 10 year old case. I had to buy rubber pads and use some leftover black sponge to be able to eliminate the vibration noises. I am sure newer HDDs will be quieter but considering there are 2 different vibration points I am positive you will listen to some degree of vibration. Lian Li could have included some rubber pads inside the little tool box that comes inside the case and it wouldn't have cost them all that much.
Really enjoyed your review. Question.. Does this case fit your RTX 4090 TUF with the side panel closed?
This info would be really helpful and guide us on our future case purchasing decisions.
Did you find it out?
Could you add in your videos what type of RGB connector the included fans use? It would make it overall video more informative. Thanks.
While I disagree with your opinion of the 011D (since I have one). I do agree this is a very nice mid priced case. The ARGB controler should be included like they do with their uni fans. Maybe they will run all the fans, they have RGB control built in.
looking forward for an air-cooled version of this case with the AS500 PLUS
Liam Li makes some banging cases. 🔥 I still prefer the O11 though, that full transparent glass with a clear view from all angles is just beautiful for any RGB setup.
I need them toi make a case that can fit an AIB 4090 tho. I can't even imagine how large the 5 series cards will be. I needed a custom MODDIY silicon sleaved cables for my gigabyte card just to be able to close my side panel and I have the O11 dynamic ROG XL case.
Some people like stealthy builds
you missed the movable motherboard tray - by default it is in lower position for watercooling (to give more clearance at the top) and for air cooling it can be moved upwards but then you can't use the rear addon fan bracket.
I love the 011 air mini but even with the mini name its a big case, both tall and wide.
One thing I noticed in this video, you put a cable management timer in the top right. I don't think I've noticed that before 🤔 just showing off ehhh 🤣 love the build and the case
Yeah thought it might interest some people to know how long it takes to cable manage a system
I'd like to see how that extra rear fan does positioned as an intake fan, blowing air from the room under the GPU fans, giving them cooler air
My OG 011 Razer is starting to give me a bit of a headache now as its not WIDE enough to accomodate the newer GPUs, along with power cabling needed. Most reviews show the length of the GPU in the case but it would be good to see how much gap there is from some of the larger ones with the glass panel on. I guess we can take the max CPU height as a measurement, but it would be nice to do visually.
Nice looking case though.
doing a new build now and this case seems to be a winner
BROOOO looks sooo good
Where did you get those cables from? They look so cool with the flowing lights through them. I want to get myself some
Tbh.. this might be best budget case of 2022.... I love it more than that h5 flow ... Better features and compatibility. Comes with better fans and more fans. 360 rad top and front... better air cooler height... Looks really modern and awesome but I prefer h5 flow look. This case actually stands out compare to competitors at this price range. I hope you do a air cooled build video in future.
Yeah I'll be doing an air-cooled version in the black case.
what fan would you use for the 360 rad in the front ?
Great build. Do you have a link to the video graphic on the CPU cooler? The one with the rain drops coming down. I just got the kraken elite and would like to put something like that on mine. Very cool. Thanks.
You went into great detail about this case compared to some that I've watched, thank you for that. 2 questions, lets say I don't wanna buy the optional I/O kit to manually control RGB; instead I'll plug in the pass thru for the RGB hub to my mother board. Now, is it ONLY 1 wire(from the hub, not the fans) that I would need to plug into the motherboard to control every aRGB device plugged into the hub thru software? 2. is there only 1 wire from the hub that I would need to plug in from the hub to the motherboard that controls all of the fans connected to that hub?
I have the same question
i prefer my dp503, mesh at PSU level is asking for dust bombs. 160mm fans are just...weird (cant find replacements and..only 2x140mm front as alternative??)...but fine for those who go stock. + point is that they run 140mm exhaust as they always do..though i got a 120mm fan on my dp503 that matches that 82cfm, while i run 140mm x3 for 300+ CFM up front. + free GPU mount and more grommets on dp503. I got the asia version, so i paid ~$75 AUD shipping included and another $40 AUD on fans.
But i must say, credit to Lian Li for providing these features stock, will be great for beginners imo. this should run great out of the box than most other cases.
I wish I'd known this was coming. I would have gotten it over the Lancool II Mesh.
What have you got as a lighting setup for the shot at 2.37? Led strips near the wall on the floor? Looks great!
What screwdriver were you using in that build? That thing looks nice.
do you need to add the fan controller for more fans or will the one at the top be good enough?
Hmm might choose this over the H7 flow, great review!
The H7 is excellent but a much bigger case. This is better if you're wanting something slightly smaller
@@GearSeekers yeah I thought about the H7 for future proofing my rig for bigger cards/components, but this is definitely a contendor. Can't wait to see more vids from you guys in the future!
that is one good looking case, what are those cables called for power to the gpu?
amazing configuration , what are RGB connector you used for the graphic and alimention motherboard ? thx a lot 4 your channel.
I liked the wraparound window cases until I started spec'ing them out. Most can't accommodate a Strix or Tuf 4090 or 4080. Most can't handle an NH-D15 so the versatility isn't there with even the Y60 and O11D XL. Because of the 12VHPWR adapater on the 40-series Nvidia cards, there are now some GPUs with a greater height requirement than the NH-D15!?! The Lancool 216 case can do all of these things and in a more compact form factor. I use an EK Nucleus 360 Lux and mounted the rad up top in the 216. Airflow through this case is great. The only fan I replaced from stock is the rear fan so I could bling it out. The front 160mm fans really move the air! And quietly! I, personally, found no need for the rear/external GPU fan mount. I also have a Tuf 4080 and can easily close the window-side door with the GPU in standard mounting to the motherboard and the adapter installed (unlike larger cases mentioned above). The hardware is high-quality and build quality is great and what you'd expect from $200+ cases. It is so easy to work in every part of the case. You can easily access both sides of the PSU when you want to add / remove a connection. You can remove the top of the case altogether which makes a world of difference when putting everything together. So easy to manage the cables. The vertical space above the motherboard in the liquid config allows mounting of standard 27mm rad with 25mm thick fans without blocking the motherboard, RAM, fan headers, etc... This is the best cased I've owned and I've paid two to three times for other cases over the years. I agree the O11D and I would even add the O11D XL are over-rated, but imagine if they were 3-5 cm wider on the mobo side.... I would have spent the additional $100-150.
Looks like a slim down lancool 3 and I really like it.
It's really cool!
Thanks for reviewing this
I have question
There is a hup build in case
Then why there is anther hup in back of the case!?
What type of light up sata/cables were used in this build? I haven't been able to find them, and they look really great!
love the visuals
Thanks so much!
This is great! but I still prefer the Lancool 2 mesh snow white version.
That case is beautiful. So compact and yet so spacey to build in
My home feed is flooded with this case review. But I watched yours first. Great review bro. But doesn't the bottom fan above the power supply starve for air?
Nah it's all good
Nice Christmas light
looks like a nice case.
It's excellent 👌
Could you explain how controlling / plugging in the fan hub works without the additional controller. What software did you use to control the rgb? Does it let you set the ring and fan colour separately?
Did you ever figure this out? Im an rgb noob and not sure how all of it connects. I was thinking of trying signal rgb.
You can uae the sl140mm in the rear, its just a squeeze, but it does fit and screw in.
So the UNI SL140mm does fit? What was he complaining about in the video?
The audio for the finished build porn was epic today!!
I like o11 evo just for 1 reason that it has a larger expose area to display rgb and components...
I love my 205m mesh
Obviously I didn’t see your testing method but from your complete build you left the bracket that closes the gap near the top mounted aio. I feel like a ton of air is going to get wasted there
Such a great video, not sure if you'll respond here but which one would you choose and why, this 216 or the Lancool Mesh 2? They are the same price for me right now and honestly they are both amazing cases
216. It's a newer and has better airflow
I just watched this video and im sorry but I am pissed. I have been building a PC to invest in for about 3 months now. This is not only a strong powerful cpu, its also aesthetically pleasing, and thats whats making me upset because i thought i had to trade one for the other. This also fits into my 2500 usd budget! You are a god send for sharing your parts
I've been looking for a case that is not too big and with a very good airflow for my upgrade and I think I've found it.
but this case is huge
may I ask what the music for the cinematic mode is? It sounded awesome and I really love your use of it
We make all the music on the channel. You can listen to it by clicking the join button :)
@@GearSeekers oh wow, i'll take a look at it then
Still love my lancool mesh 2
Just to clarify. How many fans did you end up using and which ones? It looks like they’re all the same brand but the nzxt fans on the watercooler radiator also look the same. Does that mean you swapped the fans that come with it?
I am building mine right now using the Black Lian Li Lancool 216 case. I installed the following. Thermaltake LGA1700-BCF CPU mounting bracket and tossed the stock intel piece that warps CPUs. I also installed the Thermaltake Peerless Assassin 120 CPU Fan/Heatsink. I put in the new i712700K CPU with 64GB of Trident Z5 DDR5-6400 RBG Memory. Installing an Nvidia RTX 4080 FE graphics card with the 12VHPWR 90 degree connector. I am using an EVGA 1000GQ PSU. I am using and EVGA Z690 Dark Kingpin Motherboard with a WD 2TB SN850X Gen 4 NVMe SSD 7300MB/s. This is the 1st new computer I have built and the 1st new computer since 2001. Tired of old used hand me downs. I have a question about adding more fans. As far as you can tell would I be ok with the included front 2-160mm fans and the rear 120mm fan, or would you suggest adding more fans? I am considering adding a rear where the GPU exits. Would you be able to suggest exactly which Lian Li fans I should get for adding cooling below the GPU in the case and also which Lian Li fans would I need to get for above the CPU Fan/Heatsink since my CPU socket is rotated 90 degree on my Kingpin motherboard?
I'm pretty sure you meant SL140 @ 15:34 :) ... but yea it's unfortunate that their own fan does not fit.
3:36 Nick don't tease me like that 😫😫😩😩
That's my job 🤟
Lian Li makes some of the best cases but after going the 011 with it's dual chamber design I can't go back to cases like this maybe if it wasn't in sheep white I might consider it.
They have a black version
Great case. Love it! Amazing price…
Like the case, like the price, like the bottom I/O But I don't like the rear NO RGB fan in a rgb case, I don't like the Mic/audio combo jack, I don't like the rear fan bracket and would rather have a air filter in place as they are never in stock. All the don'ts cost them pennies over the added cost for that rear fan bracket that nobody would ever use. I would take 2 in white if they had bigger holes for better airflow and a filter is better then over 50% blocked because of the small holes that do not filter dust and the top Needs open way larger holes for 360 AIO exhaust.
🙋♂Hey Nick & Klaire, I wanted to let you know that there is an error at minute 14:50 when you said that
Lian Li Unifans SL120s do not fit! It would be correct to say that the Lian Li Unifans SL140s do not fit.
greetings from Germany
Torsten
can you share the name of the rgb effect and which rgb software you are using in this video ,Like always very beautiful build
I second that request, 8 months later. C'mon man. Anybody?
