Great case, very easy to build in, airflow is great plenty of room and options for cooling. Would build in again, looks awesome with no rgb, clean performance build. And if you use the lian li edge psu, it makes cable managment and routing cables very easy, only complaint is the pieces that are plastic feel cheap. Read more

I really could not recommend it more. The craftsmanship and thoughtfulness is very apparent in the design. Cable management, the fan placement and flexibility if you want to move them. There is plenty of space and the design is very modern, with ease of cleaning. Read more

The media could not be loaded. As you can see by the title, this is the perfect case. Airflow couldn’t be better, the two 170mm case fans on the front are phenomenal. If you create your own fan curves they push so much air through while being inaudible. The best part about the case how easy the cable management was. I’ve never had such a clean look because you can mount the PSU to face the outside. This way the cables face directly towards you. Another great feature is how easy it is to pull off the glass front and the back. No screws needed and they snaps back into place with a satisfying click and without feeling loose at all. I did replace the bottom intake fans and the rear exhaust fan just for the rgb look, but the fans it came with were good. Read more

The Lian Li LANCOOL 217 Genuine Walnut Wood Computer Case is an absolute standout for both looks and performance. Its elegant black body paired with real walnut wood accents gives it a premium, modern feel that fits beautifully in any setup. Cooling is where this case truly shines — with massive front mesh panels and large pre-installed fans, it delivers exceptional airflow that keeps components running cool even under heavy load. The spacious interior supports high-end builds with ease, offering plenty of room for cables, large GPUs, and extra cooling options. With its stunning design, incredible cooling power, and thoughtful layout, the LANCOOL 217 is an awesome choice for builders who want both style and performance in one perfect package. Read more

Beautiful case, easy to build. Definitely loud but you get what you pay for with quality cooklling. No issues keeping my i9-14900kf and GPU cool. Cable management is amazing and accessible. Wish I had read it needed a mini PSU for certain mountain options but it was worth buying it. Highly recommend. Also I got a stand for it so it can better utilize the bottom fans. Read more

Sufficiently large ATX case with plenty of room for a large GPU, includes a GPU standoff and relief support. Comes equipped with 5 case fans, one exhaust in the rear, two intake on the bottom, and two very large intakes on the front. The front fans work best in the "CPU mode", but can be slid up or down to bias the air intake towards the cpu or the GPU. There is room for an additional 360mm fan array along the top as well. To support the case fans, there is a fan hub which requires sata power cable directly from your psu. The case supports an ATX power supply in two configurations which can help cable management as well. Speaking of cable management, the case makes cable management straight forward and the design, while station-wagon-esque, is elegant and attempts a timeless minimal feel. The case has some satisfying heft to it and while the panels mostly all snap on or off of the main chassis, the case connects flush with the side panels and has a sturdy construction. I'm very satisfied with the case and I think lian Li make it very hard to beat it's performance for this price point. While the lancool 207 will accomplish nearly the same performance, the 217 has some slight differences and a price bump for the aesthetic. Read more

The media could not be loaded. Great quality. Easy to build in. Easy cable management. Easy to clean. Simple and clean design. The included fans don’t have built in LED lights. The L-connect app makes it easy to control fan speeds and noise levels from the fans. This is mainly just a secondary streaming PC. So I don’t play games or perform any major task to create heat. But the case seems to have very good airflow. Read more

Case works great, fans can be a little bit noisey at higher speeds but nothing major, cable management has plenty of channels and slots to go with, everything fit well, although a 3.5 hdd was a bit of a struggle to fit at first. It was easy to remove the side panels and storage areas and it looks just as pictured, though you can see the logo on the psu depending on location. The psu power cable extender was tricky to remove since you have to remove part of the bottom panel. Read more
