I wanted to thank the team at GN for single-handedly reviving the airflow-focused case market. Thanks in large part to your exceptional case reviews, I'm the happy owner of the best case I've ever owned, the Lancool II mesh. While I won't be upgrading to the third gen, it's nice to see all of the attention to detail and quality of life improvements Lian Li is committed to providing in future iterations of their cases. It shows they care, and that there's always room for improvement in a very crowded market with lots of competition.
@MarioGoatse2 жыл бұрын
Agreed! I bought the Lancool 215 Mesh based on GN thermal figures and it’s been amazing. It’s not the best looking or flashiest case, but thermally it’s incredible. It’s damn near silent, and when I first bought it I thought my CPU temps were being misreported because they were so low. The two front 200mm fans are so good at drawing in fresh air, and because they’re 200mm they’re not very fast so they’re inaudible.

I know the video is old BUT, for *anyone out there* watching this and *thinks about picking this case up* - then here's my *1 year* in review: PROS: - Super *modular* (like a lot) - Everything runs *super cool* and *quiet* at stock, but I recommend *adding* 1-2 140mm fans in the bottom - Don't worry about if stuff fits, *stuff will fit no matter what* (and then more stuff can fit) - Verrrry *easy to clean* and maintain - So much fun to mess around with and tinker with CONS: - It. Is. Heavy. Do not buy this if you *move around a lot* or include you lifting the thing - It's *bigger* than you think, make sure to do a double and see if it fits your office / gaming area - Kinda don't like the *glass panel* on the "cable" side of the pc, just adds more to the weight and more to worry about And to add to *Steve's question about all of the mechanical parts and hinges* = after 1 year they still work like day one, and I use them a lot (I clean and tinker a lot with it)

I ended up getting this case partly due to this review. Had it about 7 months now and every time I have to work in this thing it's just a wonderful experience. Coming from an older case, using this one just feels like they thought of everything.

I have added 360mm radiator on top, stock 140mm fans on front and back and 3 120mm fans below the GPU. The only thing which I have a gripe about is the magnetic mechanism for securing the back panels. For someone who is not good at cable management, it just takes additional effort to route the cables through specific cutout marked on the panels. Also, one thing to note, if the bottom fans are RGB, the shoddy cable management at the bottom is very much visible.

I really like the dynamic way this video was shot! It felt fresh and less tense than standing there with a fixed camera angle. Please note that 'tense' really doesn't mean unpleasant! A computer case isn't rocket science by any means, and in my opinion a review of such a thing doesn't need to take itself too serious (like in this video). Just keep experimenting with that, you've already nailed the technical review part anyway. My take on the case: Every time a manufacturer tries to implement rather complicated mechanical designs for parts that, under normal operation, almost never get used, it feels a bit wasteful in my mind. They could have left out half of the panels, magnets and springs and that case would still be a top performer on noise and airflow with an easy building experience.

@@zoppletee5400 based strictly off the video and not actually owning the lancool 3. I would personally go with the 2. Few reasons. 1. The 3 is quite a lot larger than the lancool 2 and the 2 is already quite large although I will state I have a 3070ti ( it is a very large card. About 13 inches in length) and it's pretty close to the fans length wise. Which is fine just can't go much bigger. 2. On the inside the sliding cable managing thing I'm not a fan of because personally I had to straight up remove mine to get all my cables to fit properly albeit my cables are old and terrible. Other than those tbh not a lot has changed really between the 2 to warrant getting the 3 over the 2. I got my lancool 2 for 120 USD from microcenter. I DO have the lancool 2 performance though all that changes is instead of 3 front fans I get 2 bigger front fans. (,fans are non RGB although there is a performance RGB version) Really honestly I think either case is fine I don't know the price of the lancool 3 currently but if it's anything more than like 10 or 20 USD more than the lancool 2 It's probably not that worth it unless h really want the extra space

I think in some ways the Lancool III is a step backwards, specifically in gpu thermals for example, which lets face is the most important thermal testing as it is the hottest component in the system. I love what they have improved upon over the Lancool II mesh, however I would still buy 2 over 3 purely based on your gpu thermal testing. Lian Li I feel, is really competing with itself here, the Lancool III Is interesting sure, but it is not as compelling as the Lancool II Mesh, especially when considering the high price increase.

I’ve got the Lian Li Cool 2 Mesh, and built my own pc with it. I found it to be a very easy unit to build in ( I’ve built four pc’s so far, and this was the easiest case to build in). I actually think the older unit looks better than this new one. I also wonder if the new side panel latches that run all the way down both sides of the front of the case are actually slightly blocking airflow compared to the older case which doesn’t have these latches on it? The older design that required the bottom doors to be open before the glass panels could be opened was perfectly fine in my opinion, and adding these massive latches on the new case is a step backwards as they are potentially a fail point with over usage. Also, the two solid metal doors on the back side that cover all the cables for neatness are far better on the older model as they can be screwed shut rather than using magnets. From personal experience, I struggled to get all the cables bolted behind the doors, and the magnet version would have been a giant pain to have to deal with. I can also verify that, once you get all you components in this case and it’s ready to turn on, it’s a VERY heavy boy! I built my son’s gaming pc using another case (admittedly with a smaller GPU) and my pc is probably three times heavier than his. Another improvement that could be made to both the older and newer case would be to use the Lian Li SL120 Uni Fan Infinity ARGB PWM 120mm at the front of the case. It would increase the price, but these fans look far better, and with their interlocking system you would only have one cable to deal with rather than each fan having its own cables.

@@jakechuaweipeng I agree it is sad, that they are not trying a few more fan configurations that make a lot of sense. Their current approach lets a case with a bottom GPU cooling option look the same as one which does not have such an option. Regarding the comparison to the Lancool II Mesh, though, the latter has the same option and they did not use it to obtain their GPU measurements either. There must be some reason (distance from front fans, gap to side panel, measurement error for the Lancool II Mesh, etc.) that explains the worse performance of the Lancool III. I don't understand why some people are raving about GN so much, given that they don't really put in more effort into case testing than other channels. The only advantage GN has, is their standardised testing methodology, but they do very little to nothing to find out how to best cool a case. From a top notch channel that deserves the raving praise GN already receives, I would expect that they try different top fan setups, for instance, and not just speculate that one might be better than the other.

A follow-up video could also perhaps show the results of a bit of torture testing of all the door mechanisms, nothing extreme but enough to show how well the mechanisms hold up through a number of uses Last thing, wish they didn't have glass on both sides, it really doesn't add much to the look having glass on the side behind the motherboard tray, would rather it be a metal panel and reduce the cost a little bit (but I will say those cable covers do make the glass there viable as an attractive option for anyone that does like it)

The O11 Air has had a few modified follow ups. The Bora fans led to the UNI fans, probably some of the most popular fans sets on the market. The Lancool line has been introduced and exploded with many models. Most importantly, most of their products fall into an affordable price point and get better with each new model.

Came from a lancool 2 mesh. Really wanted to run a 420 rad for my 13900k and was looking for options. Loved the torrent but I just found it to be a little restrictive in case layout. You basically have to run it as is otherwise you are throwing away money on those fancy shrouded 180s in the front. So, I opted for another lancool. 1. 420 rads fit pretty easily, you have to ditch some aux fans but it's not a big issue. 2. Major point they miss is cleanability. These lancool cases are so easy to keep clean. No screws no clips, not fixed psu covers... And now with the panel openers you don't even have to touch the glass. 3. Front panel removal is the 1 major letdown, really with lian LI could have figured something out even just making the mesh section clip in would have been a big improvement. The front panel is so tight it is really sketchy pulling it off. Saving grace is that my build weighs 50lbs so pulling it off the desk isn't a concern.
