Lian Li Lancool 207 Black ATX MidTower Gaming Case Tempered Glass, 2x140mm ARGB Fans, 2x120mm bottom PWM reverse fans , CPU Cooling Support 180mm, GPU Support 375mm, 360mm Radiator Support, 7x PCI Slot, Front I/O: 2xUSB, 1xType C, HD Audio

Gamers Nexus reviews this as a chart topper for both GPU and CPU cooling.

Build ease:
The PSU is 90 deg rotated and positioned at the front, I had some concerns about fitting and running cables, but it was the easiest/cleanest job I've had.
I used the new Corsair RM1000x 3.1 ATX PSU, and ran the mb connector, 2xCPU, 2xGPU connectors and was able to route it all within the space.
I can close the side panel with ease, a couple of the cables do nudge a tiny amount but they are all clearing without requiring awkward bends in the cables out of the PSU.
Ironically, I wouldn't try and put a SHIFT PSU in (I suspect you would not have clearance...view more Gamers Nexus reviews this as a chart topper for both GPU and CPU cooling.

Cooling/Noise:
It belts a lot of air through with the default curve and is quite loud, but not turbulent.
With the fan curves dialed in noise levels are fine and gaming it felt about as loud as my old Fractal Define r5 case (which has noise insulated panels).
It doesn't come with a rear fan by default, and with a blow through cpu cooler like mine it's not needed, plenty of heated air was coming out the back.

Construction:
The construction is quite nice, the panels hold their shape competently and click on and off cleanly.
In terms of defects I do have two nit-picky ones with my case, one of the thumb screws is quite tight to turn, and there is a minor scuff in the powder coat on the front grill but it isn't super obvious unless looking for it.
It is worth noting that apart from the bottom grill, the side front top panels only click on, there are no screws to lock them on.

Conclusion:
I got this on sale, but even at full price it is an easy yes for me. It is a top performer in terms of thermals even when noise adjusted, the clearances in it are actually quite good with plenty of gpu and cpu air cooler space.
It is understated in terms of looks for a case so that may not be to everyone's taste, the white case may have more impact?!
The other cases I was looking at were the Antec C8 and Flux, and the the Fractal Torrent.

For those wanting this for looks and hoping it's quiet, it's not, there is also a humming noise from the front fans so I will be looking at getting different fans or another case.

Fairly easy case to build in other than tight cable management in the back.

Air flow is very good and the GPU fans are a nice addition. Definitely recommend this case. Fairly easy case to build in other than tight cable management in the back.

First Lian Li case I've bought, and i'm very impressed. lots of configuration options, sensational airflow options, and love the included fans. First Lian Li case I've bought, and i'm very impressed. lots of configuration options, sensational airflow options, and love the included fans.

4 stars only because there is little room in the rear for cable management. Id recommend to get flat cables or anything that isnt too thick. By far the best in terms of cooling performance. 4 stars only because there is little room in the rear for cable management. Id recommend to get flat cables or anything that isnt too thick.

Pros:
- Very good airflow out of the box. Comes with 4x fans. Heaps of cooling potential for the GPU and CPU.
- Plenty of room to fit a big GPU and/or tall air cooler, plus there's 360mm AIO support at the top.
- Built-in GPU support/holder works well.
- I was a little worried about running into issues for cable management because of the review by Gamers Nexus, but in reality I didn't run into any issues. It's a non-issue especially if you have a fully modular PSU using the included cables, i.e., don't use cable extensions. My PSU came with individually sleeved cables and it's been fine.

Cons:
- The included fans can be quite loud if you don't set a custom fan curve. There's still plenty of cooling when capping the case fans to about 55-60% depending on your tolerance for noise.

Overall, this is easily the best case that's readily available in terms of price/performance.

This case is fantastic but you need to know what you're potentially getting into.

Firslty, make sure your PSU fits, 140-150mm is ideal. It's supposedly specced for 160 but it would be a hell of a squeeze. Secondly, make sure your EPS cables are going to be long enough. 600mm SHOULD reach without too much stress on the cables. I would strongly suggest using a modular PSU to cut down on total cables as you can't just cram cables in the shroud as you often normally could with other cases and if you cram too much in the rear channel it could be an issue getting the side panel back on.

With that out of the way, it's one of the best designed cases I've used or built in. The airflow is top of the pack and things like the built in GPU bracket are a great addition. It'll easy fit an NHD15 air cooler and has capacity for 360mm Rads up top. Dust may be an issue and require more frequent cleaning as the bottom rear of the case is effectively an unfiltered intake. For the price it's a steal.

Easy enough to assemble. Flat cables best for keeping the side panel snug in place. Love the look personally. Easy enough to assemble. Flat cables best for keeping the side panel snug in place. Love the look personally.
