## Description

Lian Li Lancool 216-X Midi Tower Noir

Review: The BEST case I ever built in and phenomenal value for £89. Impossible to beat - 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.
Review: The Very Best - 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.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the RGB programmable?**
A: I was able to control it through MSI Mystic Light after I downloaded MSI Dragon Center for my motherboard. An additional ARGB control & USB module can be installed at the side of the front panel to provide better control over the front ARGB fans. The ARGB control & USB module offers the option to create custom lighting styles by mixing the light effects of both LED channels individually. It's like $14 and it comes in both black and white options.

**Q: Should the pcie fan exhaust or intake? Is it the same with two fans at bottom of case as intake? Not sure if should be exhaust pulling air away gpu**
A: If you’re referring to the optional rear fan over the expansion slots, personally I think it’s a bit of a gimmick and doesn’t really do much.  But if you want to use it, install it as an exhaust fan.  If you watch the Gamer’s Nexus review video they mention that.

The bottom fans should be intakes.  The bottom fan over the power supply is somewhat restricted, so I only installed the bottom center fan.  It actually supplies more than enough air for the GPU above it.

**Q: how many fans can be installed on the top of the case?**
A: I have had a 280 mm cooler with two 140 mm fans in the top.  Two 140 mm fans do not fill the opening so a cover is needed, and included, to cover the gap left open.  I now have a 360 mm cooler with 3 120 mm fans.  It is a perfect fit.  This is an exceptional case for fan mounting and excellent ventilation.

**Q: Is there no vertical gpu mount?**
A: YES, it can be vertically mounted.  The PCI expansion slot opening in the back can be removed and rotated 90 degrees to accomodate a vertical GPU.  Extra mounting hardware will be needed of coarse.  BUT if you do this you lose the ability to use ANY remaining PCI slot expansion modules, because the vertical GPU takes up that space.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice and spacious case thats excellent for a pc build.
*by N***M on 10 February 2025*

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.
