Lian Li Lancool 216 Mid-tower case with high cooling performance - Includes dual front 160MM PWM fans and 1 rear 140MM PWM fan - Airflow focused - Up to 10 fans (LANCOOL 216R-W WHITE)

Great case. It seems well built and good quality. Love the customization and cable management. Very easy to disassemble and work on. Love the fact the front panel connector is one plug and not five separate. It’s nice having the rgb header pre installed. There’s also plenty of room to add more rgb headers and ssd drives if needed. The front panel I/O can be relocated if needed, from the top to the side. The top will accommodate many different cooling options. Plus the front fans can be replaced with smaller ones. I’ve had no problems with temperatures with this case, and airflow is excellent. You are getting a lot for the price in my opinion.. Can’t recommend this case enough.

-This was so easy to build in.-The air flow is absolutely amazing especially for the GPU. (where this case really shines)-It looks nice-Build quality of the case is excellent for its price point. And all panels come off easily.Just 3 things to consider. First is the power supply. It can be a very tight fit if you use a 160mm PSU. I used the Corsair RMx 850. The wires do have a sharp bend to them against the side panel but its not a huge issue. You can use a 140mm or 150mm PSU if you find this concerning.Secondly is the cable management. Since the doors arent held by thumb screws and pop on/off, cable management is very important or you may not be able to secure the side panel. I thought this would be a difficult task, but turned out to be quite easy.Lastly on most ATX motherboards the USB header will be quite low on the side which makes plugging the front USB in very difficult. I recommend plugging in the USB front IO cable into the motherboard first, then installing the mobo.

This Lian LI 216 E-ATX PC turned out to be an excellent choice. The case has a nice style. It's easy to assemble a PC using this case. Cables and wires are well routed and hidden for the most part. Nothing weird or difficult about its construction. Plenty of nice, large, illuminated slow speed and quiet cooling fans. Mainboard installation was easy. It handled the install of an all-in-one CPU liquid cooling unit just fine. Lots of room for the RTX3080 GPU card.Overall, I am very pleased with this case.

Really nice case. I haven’t build in a while and when decided to get a new PC I wanted quite PC with good air circulation and to have a lot of space for all components, especially 5080! It’s a beast. I was lucky to get the ASUS aurus 5080 and it fit without any issues. I did go with a full ATX MB and due to that had to put my 1kw power supply in the front, but I don’t mind that. Case construction overall is very good! Metal is not flimsy and everything snaps very well. Case with all the components in it is on a heavier side, but it’s ok since no one will be moving it too much, it’s not meant for it. I’d like to have a switch to turn off RGB lights on front fans for using PC at night, however I was able to disable it in all. Front fans are able to move a lot of air and a bit audible but not loud at all!

Lian Li was a bit more of a hassle in regards to getting a replacement front panel/USB C port but they finally did come through as well. Overall this is one of the best cases for air flow and is premium and super easy to build in as its spacious.Original review:I genuinely like the Lian Li Lancool 216 case. It’s sleek, spacious, and feels premium. Overall a great choice for my first PC build. But here is some honest feedback.Front Panel USB-C Issue:The USB-C port on the front panel of my unit is completely unusable. I tested multiple cables and devices, even applied extra pressure, but nothing fit properly. I gave up before risking damage to my gear. Meanwhile, both USB-A ports work perfectly. It’s frustrating, especially since the USB-C was a key reason I chose this case.RGB Remote (Paid Extra for this feature):I paid a bit more for the version with the RGB remote, but honestly, it’s not worth it. No instructions were included, and the buttons are limited and confusing:-Button 1: Cycles RGB modes-Button 3: Changes color-Hold Button 1: Syncs with motherboard-Buttons 2 & 4: Don’t seem to do anythingI ended up using Armoury Crate (from my ASUS motherboard) instead. It offers far more control, not just RGB, but fan speeds, temps, and more.The Good Stuff:-Tons of space and excellent airflow-Three included fans (two large front RGB) keep things cool and quiet-Cable routing is easy, and both the glass and top & side panels are a breeze to remove-Build quality is solid, it really feels like a premium caseI’ve reached out to Lian Li support about the USB-C issue and will update once I hear back.Final Thoughts:The front panel USB-C not working and the lackluster remote were definite disappointments. I expected better QC and documentation. That said, returning the case and rebuilding everything would be a hassle — so more than likely going to keep the case. For a first-time builder, this case checks most of the right boxes: it looks great, runs cool, and is easy to work with.Giving it 2 stars in hopes that Amazon/Lian Li support follows through, I will happily update here and change my rating.
