It's been over 5 years since I last changed my case (Enthoo Pro M). I liked the front of this case with the large fans so thought I'd give it a shot.
Building was a doddle with plenty of room. I like the clip on sides and that you can remove the top to install an AIO. Here's a couple of pics from the build:
The next 4 pics just show that my Arctic Liquid Freezer 3 280 doesn't fit, I didn't pay due diligence!! The case allows AIO up to 60mm but mine is 67mm so the 2nd fan won't fit on. However, working fine with one fan installed until I source a replacement.
Lastly, this is just a pic of it switched on. I'm not usually a big fan of RGB but I quite like this.
Cable management was very good and I like the fact you can install the PSU sideways if it's small enough.
The only negative I have so far is that the front 170mm fans make a droning noise that goes up and down in pitch. Not a problem when gaming but annoying when just surfing. I've seen on the Lian Li Reddit page that people had this problem with the original 217 case and replacement fans were sent out which rectified the problem. As this is a newer case I'll be surprised if these fans are the same and need replacing. I have contacted their support to see if this is indeed the case so will just have to wait and see.
