LianLi Lancool 216 - Part I (Case Details)

[@KleoYan]

Hi Everyone, my bad. for front fans. I have mentioned able to mount 3 x 140mm. is not 3 is 2 x 140mm fans. sorry.

[@taekwondosplit]

For lancool 2 mesh also, they mention 2 x 140mm. However, we can mount 2 x 140mm with 1 x120mm easily. Also, some people have put 3 x 140mm as seen on reddit. Can you check if these configurations are possible in lancool 216?

[@KleoYan]

@@taekwondosplit hello and welcome to my channel. practically it's ok to mount 2 x 140mm and 1 x 120mm at the front but will need some adjustment or maybe zig ties to do this stunt

[@KleoYan]

Hi Ya! War Gaming Refugee, welcome back. how are you? hope you are doing fine at your end. Thank you for the valuable feedback, your kinds words and appreciation does have an impact on me. You have no idea how happy I am about your comment. This motivates me even further, I am not perfect but will try to improve as I continue on. By the way if you have any suggestions for me to improve on, do not hesitate to suggest or comment. I am open to suggestion. To be honest, when I started this channel, I was worried as I do it at my comfort zone (no studio, no good cameras). you might be shock, all these while am only using a smart phone to take those videos. Nevertheless I am standing as a PC builder stand point, I want to know what's good or bad of a product before purchasing. Be it if further products are sponsored, I will stick to my principle. If it's bad, I will say it's bad. If it's good, I will praise and state why they are good. Again thank you so much to have put in your kind words, it meant alot to me.. 🙂

Thank you for the indepth rundown of this case! I am debating between the 216 or a Lancool III right now. However, I do have a question regarding vertical mounting in this case. You pointed out that fans won't fit under the card in the stock case vertical mounting orientation (at least not two fans). But would I be able to forego the stock mounting and instead use a 3rd party vertical mounting bracket such as a Cooler Master V3 and still be able to utilize the two fan mounting positions? Is there room for a 3rd party bracket and fans? I know if I mounted horizontal, this wouldn't be an issue. However, I currently have a CM V3 and a bunch of Uni Infinity fans in my current case. So it would be great to be able to utilize those parts in this case. Otherwise, might need to turn my focus to the Lancool III. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

[@KleoYan]

Hello TravD23, welcome to my channel. I do not have a CM v3 mount but I do know this mount allow you to adjust the rear to give clearance for you to plug either hdmi or dp csbles. This is not an issue. The only concern I have is. Can the CM bracket fit on the PCI-E slot which I am not sure if it does. Since am not able to give you a straight answer, you only got two choices. 1 is to take the risk and to try 2nd have it horizontally mounted.

Hello Russell Lim, welcome to my channel. what you can do is, there is this cable which is from the case to your motherboard but instead to your motherboard, plug it to your uni controller. on the case argb button, hold on the mode button for 3 seconds to switch from case control to mobo control, once it's on mobo control, your uni fan controller takes over. but do note the argb effects will react differently as the 160mm fans are not uni fans.

for the 160mm you can connect to the SL-Infiinty hub, sync 2 or sync 4.. just make sure when you plug to lets say sync 2, your SL infinity fans have to plug to port 2, so that you have the SL Infinity dash board appears I L-Connect 3.

Hello Kleo. This video is awesome! I have a question if you don't mind. I have a Lancool 216 RGB which didn't come with the RGB Controller. Now, I made a mistake with my build and I got a Motherboard that has no ARGB headers. I also got a PE120SE cooler that has ARGB fans. If I buy the front panel RGB Controller, can it also control the CPU Cooler ARGB fans, or will it only be able to control the two front 160mm RGB ones? Thanks :)

[@KleoYan]

Hi Spain Space, welcome to my channel. the 216 controller has a limit (amount of argb devices) just to share with you my experience. If you purchase the 216 argb controller, yes it can control all your argb fans and the aircooler argb but there is a limit and you might end up buying an additional argb hub to light up all your argb devices. I would suggest you to get something like this www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BP1JZTND/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=A1X11FOVGZ8LKJ&psc=1 where it has a remote control to check the argb effects, but do note, this only have 8ports which can cater for 8 fans only.

In my case just regular cleaning will do. I don’t really need fan filters.

[@whitedancer5866]

Would you be able to confirm the possibility of using bottom fans with vertical gpu mode? Possible work around #1: depending on how much clearance is left between ATX psu and bottom grill, and how much the standoffs threads penetrate through the grills. I might be able to use thin fans below the grills. Possible work around #2: To use SFX-L or SFX PSU to mount the fans below grills (Still need to make sure the standoff screw don't destroy the fan blades).

Bro can I mount 3 UNI SL fans in the bottom of the case? Even though there are 2 exhausts. Please try and let me know 🙏

[@CallMeFearS]

120mm fan

[@KleoYan]

@@CallMeFearS hi welcome to my channel. I am afraid you will not be able to fix 3 x 120mm fans. I have tried. Unless you do not use the default fan holes at the bottom and to use zip tie. But I find it no point as your third fan is till block by the front metal piece at the bottom. Restricting it to draw air from the bottom.

amazing video, just got one question- where is part 2? :D

Hello Ofoid Rei, welcome to my channel part II in progress. Pardon me to keep you waiting as am busy finishing up other content deadline, but it will be done before year end. Thank you.

Hello kleo. I have this case arriving today(rgb version) with the controller. I have two questions about extra NON rgb pwm fans. 1: Can i daisy chain two fans and connect them to one pwm header on the hub? 2: my air-cooled cpu has two pwm fans(no rgb). Do i connect the air cooler fans on the MB cpu fan header or on the hub? Thank you for your detailed videos!

[@KleoYan]

Hi TheKids_CallMeBoss, welcome to my channel. Fan hub i will just use it for case fans. it's not advisable to daisy chained your fans and to plug to the fan hub/controller. If you daisy chained your fans, best to plug directly to your motherboard fan header. as for AirCooler fans, I will not plug to the hub, I will plug directly to the CPU_FAN header. in the event if the hub goes faulty, at least your CPU Aircooler is still operational.

[@thekids_callmeboss6577]

@@KleoYanAren't the 2 front rgb fans daisy chained and connected to 1 pwm header on the hub? Thx for reply

[@KleoYan]

@@thekids_callmeboss6577 nope, when you get the case. the front fans are not daisy chained. they connect individually to the fan hub/controller.

[@thekids_callmeboss6577]

@@KleoYan ok ty very much, this is first time I will have rgb fans and combined with a few non rgb fans for bottom, top and rear. Since the extra fans will be connected directly on the motherboard. I use the bios to control the fan speeds, like I have in my old case. How do I control the speed/fan curve on the two front rgb fans. Is this only possible with software? I have a msi motherboard.

[@KleoYan]

@@thekids_callmeboss6577 from the controller you will need to plug the pwm connector to your motherboard, then use your motherboard UEFI HWmonitor section to control the PWM curve.

Question to the author of the video: Connector USB Type C, it is Gen1 or Gen 2, i.e. its speed 5 or 10 gb/sec ?

[@KleoYan]

Hello Eugene Belyaev, welcome to my channel, you can just call me Kleo. The type-c can cater for 10gb or 20gb. it's a Gen2 2x2 plug.

[@eugenebelyaev2436]

@@KleoYan The connector Type-C on the case's front panel connecting with the internal port USB Type-C on the motherboard, which never has a Gen 2x2 structure (speed 20 Gb/s) but only 5 or 10 Gb, depending on the type of internal port Gen 1 (5 Gb) or Gen 2 ( 10 GB) 20 Gb/s speed usually has only Type-C port on back panel of the motherboard (Sorry for my bad English)

[@KleoYan]

​@@eugenebelyaev2436 my board has this 1 x Front Panel Type C USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Header (20 Gb/s) which is for the front Type C I/O. let me test some stuff out and will let you know. as I always thought is based on what your motherboard front type-c connect is.

[@eugenebelyaev2436]

@@KleoYan My motherboard is a MSI MAG H660 Mortar MAX and her has 1 port on the back panel Type-C Gen 2x2 (20 gb) and 1 internal port Type-C Gen 2 (10 gb), but I'm not sure that for connecting to the port on the case, port on the case's front panel will be the same speed 10 gb/sec. What do you think about it ?

[@KleoYan]

Hi, just to inform you. I have tested two chassis with two different boards, the X670E Steel Legend front type c is able to transfer at 20gb with both the cases I have tested. and for another board which is the B550m mortar. it's at 5gb on the same two cases which I have tested, I dont think the front type-c cable on your front i/o matters. what matter is, does your board support those transfer rates. Case tested Lancool 216 and current case which is going to be my next content, the Montech SkyTwo.

[@danielmedeiros5832]

So you can fit 3x140mm fans on the front of the case (i have 5x140mm Arctic P14 fans)?

[@KleoYan]

Hi Daniel Medeiros welcome to my channel. Do pardon me. That’s a mistake and I have address with a pinned comment. You can only place 2 x 140mm fans at the front.

And you can only use 2x140 on the top of the psu, if you are using the case in the air mode, other wise just 2x120 if using in the wc mode, am i right?

@UC-oCdb1ls9N1VBCZO6WJy3w correct.

can you use 3x120 fans instead of 2x160?

Hi Fudgewaffle, welcome to my channel, yes you can use 3 x 120mm fans at the front, it has a modular pillar for you to mount your 3 x 120mm fans in place.

Hi! Good rewiew! 👍 Can I controll the 160 mm ARGB fans with the L- Connect 3? Thanks

[@KleoYan]
