Lian Li LANCOOL 216 Mid-Tower Case – Black, High-Airflow Mesh Front, Tempered Glass Side Panel

Pros: 1. Super easy cable management, no need for cable ties for 90% of cables. 2. It comes with an easy front IO plug, no need to mess with tiny needle cables. 3. Has enough space at the top for thick radiators like Liquid Freezer II or III and can even fit more thick fans like 30mm T30 without any ram clearance issues. 4. The best airflow for CPU according to Gamer Nexus review. 5. Comes with 2x160mm intake + 140mm exhaust, no need to buy extra fans. 6. Has screw box with different storage compartments for free. 7. Enough space for even the biggest video cards with12VHPWR and no additional adapters, as well as giant CPU coolers (180mm CPU cooler max height). 8. Can fit E-ATX motherboards, up to 360mm AIO on top or front of the case, up to 220mm power supplies. 9. Case is full of holes and mesh to make airflow one of the best. Also lots of customisation, including vertical GPU option, additional fan for video card in the back of the case or 2x fans above PSU to blow air to the video card. 10. Includes USB-C 10 Gbps header, 2x USB 3.0 (5 Gbps), audio jack. 11. For all these features it comes at extremely low price of around £89. Cons: 1. I rebuilt my computer twice and had trouble fitting a motherboard. Put standoff taller screws on bottom centre and the last on top right. Lower the motherboard and try to align on the bottom standoff first, then try to get the top right one. Once you get, you need to slightly push towards left and down. Eventually it will clip in. 2. Front fans have shorter cable so you can plug them in only on the right side of the motherboard or you need to buy 2 to 1 cable adapter, this way I plugged them into the bottom of the motherboard. Overall, super happy with this case. I can't believe how much they managed to fit in this case without any sacrifices or steep price. If you're considering this or any other case, just pick Lian Li Lancool 216 as this is just incredible product. If you're new to PC building, this case will make it an easy task.

Simply the best PC case I've ever had. It's large, but this allows for both excellent airflow despite the ever growing scale of modern GPUs. It also has some very convenient features for cable management and ongoing maintenance. I've had mine for a good while now and have had nothing but good experiences with it

Very nice to build in. Its got lots of space for any future upgrades (I will definitely need it since the graphics cards get bigger and bigger each year). The manual wasnt as good but the product itself is brilliant. Its great for cable management as you can pretty much take off every part of the outside of the case. Due to it mostly being mesh, its brilliant for cooling. The only negative about this is that if you have loud fans, you can hear it a bit more than the average case.

Very happy. Big enough for upgrades, did fit a radeon 7900xtx but I sent that card back so back to 1070 for now. You can install 2 360mm AIO's if u wanted = brilliant! Premium feeling case, heavy solid panels no flex anywhere no chassis noise when fans are blaring. As you can see my mobo is in water cooler mode (lower on the chasis) and I can still fit 2 140mm fans below the gpu no issues, absolutely stoked about that makes gpu cold as hell. Comes with such amazing designed hdd and ssd trays which clip on and off and just feel amazingly high quality. The amount of room in the bottom is so nice. And there's a gap to the front to run cables like gpu and mobo power through without twisting them through the back walls. Genuinely an amazing case. As you can see yhr front panel with the stock 160mm fans gathers some dust, this does appear pretty quickly but at least its on the metal front and not inside the case so just give it a wipe every now and again. In love with this case. Only downside is that the HD audio in the front has the worst audio I've ever heard so better to stick with the actual mobo audio connectors. Thanks for reading:)

Beautiful case, easy to dismount, excellent clearance to work with cables. Fans, at 60% are not noisy. It's a smooth sound. Very good value for money, compared to other brands. My ATX and GTX 1080ti MSI Aero fitted perfectly with plenty of room.

Bought this months ago, someone else built my pc. Very nice case though . When the case arrived was a rattle and looked inside was a screw loose in the case and the box was still factory sealed. Did mention it to the builder and seemed everything was ok. Amazing case though

Looks amazing, quite easy to fit everything into and great ventilation

Got this recently and it's amazing. Accessibility to install your parts is next to none, (I previously owned an NZXT H510, I won't ever own one again after buying this Lian Li Lancool 216). The airflow is great, I mean, Steve from GN (Gamer Nexus) likes this case, this should be all you need to know. Cabelmanagement is really easy with this case, I can't really fault it to be honest, and looking forward to it's successor. It's the perfect case and overall winner in my books for the price mark. If you want a case and are not fussed on RGB, get the non RGB version.

Case per tutti, predisposto per montare qualsiasi componente; modulare in tutte le sue parti; predisposto per il montaggio gpu verticale; compreso kit supporto gpu in orizzontale. Perfetto in ogni dettaglio, ingegnerizzato alla perfezione, finiture impeccabili! Per poco più di 100€ compratelo subito!!

I brought this case as a replacement for a Corsair 200R case that I had built my first PC in. This is a well thought out case, easy to build in, stock fans are very quiet at idle, and for my air focused build, on par with the same build in a Fractal Torrent XL as far as thermals go (actually better by a few degrees). Gamers Nexus is 100% spot on as far as thermals go. The good: Easy to build in. Descent cable management. Front, sides, window are all easy to open/access and secure with thumb screws (except front which is snap fit). Included PWM 160mm front fans are quiet and move air well thru the case, same with the rear 140 PWM. Fans don't feel cheap. Completely stock config this case is worthy. No real need to add any additional fans, unless you want to add a lower fan (front position) for your GPU or try other configs. I went with the default fan config as it's just working, well, really well. 32deg c at idle. Case looks nicer then I expected. It's a dark case, no power LED. It has a reset switch which is nice. Combo headphone/mic jack feels solid, no issues with either headphones or headset functionality or insert (unlike the Torrent). Window looks good and feels solid, although I generally avoid presentation cases in general, so this is a big departure for me. I like the look. The case has no other LEDs to tell if it's on (it's that quiet). Looks nice as a presentation case. The Meh: The MB "air cooling mode" config standoffs leave an awkward GPU placement. Recommend using the standard position. Again Gamers Nexus spot on on this. The PSU shroud has removable plates to add fans, install SSDs, etc. The screw holes are small, so removing them is required to add fans, and they must be installed on top, not below the shroud. I am sure one could add some long screws and bolts, but the kit does not include hardware to do this, at least with standard size fan screw patterns. Lian Li fans may get you around this, but I am a dedicated Noctua guy. No biggie. I may look more into a below shroud fan position mod and update the review. The anti-sag bracket uses MB standoffs to support the bracket fyi. Note that the standard 216 case does NOT have a fan hub, but is the same price, yet has PWM front 160mm fans instead of the ARGB fans on the RGB version. Note that the rear GPU 120mm fan cage is kinda weird, sticks out, and feels like an afterthought. Best guess is it is included for folks who do not like the PSU shroud top mounted fan look. Who knows. Overall I like the case. The thermals are excellent with my build, better or on par with the Torrent XL at a much smaller footprint, price, and noticeably quieter/near silent at idle. Was a breeze to build in, plenty of space to navigate. Good manual available online and included screw accessory box is a nice perk. Looks great and feels premium. Unsure about fan compatibility if the front 160mm fans need replacement, as Lian Li is kinda known for proprietary fans, but once you go over 140mm, this is an issue with most manufacturers. Would build in a 216 again for sure. Footprint, thermals, looks, and ease of install is spot on. Hats off to Lian Li for this model.

Exccelente

Muy buena caja, con muy buen cable management. Le faltaría un filtro anti polvo superior y otro frontal (que es opcional y se vende aparte) para ser perfecta. Por este precio, me parece la mejor caja que he visto hasta la fecha. Importante leerse bien las instrucciones, que no son todo lo claras que deberían, para entender cómo se desmontan las tapas y otras partes.

Very good case ,I got it with discount. Case have plenty of room (any RTX 40 series) will fit. Also it's a transformer case you can install AO cooling or standard Fan for CPU. It includes bunch of screws, and other parts(covers, extra mount for GPU fan, zips etc). By the temperature, my i7 14700 drops 5-10° ,. compare to the old case. It includes 160mm *2 fans Nd 140mm *1 fan. You can install extra 5 fans if needed )) One minus is ,the aluminum is very thin. U can bend some part if you are not careful. Highly recommended,price is great. And it's heavy )))))
