PC case

Excellent9/10Mid-range

Lian Li dominates showcase builds with the O11 family and offers some of the best-value airflow cases in the Lancool line. Build quality is consistently good. Its only real weakness is a sprawling range and software that could be simpler.

Good at

  • O11 Dynamic set the standard for dual-chamber showcase cases
  • Lancool 217 and 207 are value airflow favourites
  • Broad range from A3-mATX to full towers
  • Big fan and cooling ecosystem that fits cleanly

Weak at

  • Many variants and editions make choosing confusing
  • L-Connect fan software can be finicky
  • Base versions often need extra fans
