Lian Li Lancool RGB Black Case: Unleash the Cooling Beast Within Your PC!
The Lian Li Lancool RGB Black Case is a powerhouse for airflow and customization, ideal for crafting a modern, high-performance gaming PC. This guide dives deep into the Lancool 216’s impressive features, making it easy for you to decide if it’s the perfect fit for your next build.
Features:
- High airflow mid-tower design
- Supports up to E-ATX (under 280mm) motherboards
- Specially designed front 160mm fans
- Dual locations for front I/O
- Full-size GPUs up to 392mm supported
- Adjustable motherboard position for two cooling modes
Blowing up A Storm
The Lian Li Lancool RGB Black Case has been specially designed for maximum airflow, alongside being optimized for air and AIO cooling. The front and top panels feature fine mesh that permits ample air to flow both into and out of the case. Furthermore, Lian Li has redesigned the front fans for the Lancool 216. They can produce an astounding 118.85CFM of airflow with a static pressure of 3.10mmH2O.
There are also plenty of options for further cooling. At the top of the case, there is space to install a 360mm radiator with an overall thickness of 77mm. Furthermore, you can install a 120mm or 140mm fan at the rear and two 120mm or 140mm fans at the base of the chassis. One final innovation is the option to mount 120mm fan dedicated to drawing air along the GPU.
Highly Adjustable
The Lian Li Lancool RGB case lets you customize its insides! Choose how you want to cool your PC: with air or water. By moving a few parts around, you can raise or lower the motherboard. Want water cooling? Lower the motherboard for more space for a radiator and fans. Sticking with air cooling? Raise the motherboard to get the most airflow and use the special GPU fan bracket.
This case offers a lot of ways to make it your own. For instance, the front ports can go on top of the panel or lower on the side. You can even add a special controller for lights and USB ports in the other spot (sold separately). Plus, you can mount your graphics card upright, but you’ll need an extra cable (sold separately).
Beautiful Cable Management
Lian Li Lancool RGB Black Case helps keep your gaming PC neat. It has special straps behind the motherboard to tie up your cables. These are next to the rubber rings for cables. There are also more straps by the power supply to keep extra cables out of the way. In the back, there are clips to hold the main power cable for your CPU organized.
Furthermore, Lian Li has made it easier to cable manage your fans as well. There are standard channels for the front fans, but there are also similar routing options at the top. These provide easy access to the rear chamber without having to enter the main chamber.

I got this case from TechNextDay for a great price, and true to their name, it arrived the next day. There was no damage to the box nor the contents inside. All in all, a great experience with this company whom I had never bought before from, but now have no problems recommending. I would definitely use them again.
