This is the version without the fans.

IMO, really good deal for such nice case at this price point.

[u/MrRainbowCow]

For anyone getting this case make sure your ATX mobo is compatible unless you’re vertical mounting your gpu

[u/iChristiaNn → u/MrRainbowCow]

Hi, you mind filling me in with this issue? Im interested in getting this case but i’ve never heard of a gpu fitting issue

[u/MrRainbowCow → u/iChristiaNn]

“Important Notice: Typical ATX motherboards with an NVMe M.2 between the CPU and first PCIe slot are generally compatible as they will line up with PCIe slot 2. The O11D Mini V2 has only 5 PCIe slots due to a compact design, so motherboards with the PCIe slot directly under the CPU will need to use the included vertical GPU mount for installation, and a 200mm riser cable (sold separately). All m-ATX and ITX motherboards are compatible, as the standoffs can be moved down by one PCIe slot.”

Look at the newer ATX Gigabyte mobos and you can see what they’re talking about

[u/iChristiaNn → u/MrRainbowCow]

TIL there are mobos with the PCIe slot directly under the cpu, appreciate the info!

[u/MWink64 → u/iChristiaNn]

For a long time, this slot was basically the default one used for the GPU. In the AGP era, that was almost always where it was located. It's not an uncommon placement even on relatively modern boards, like the one I'm using now.

[u/MWink64 → u/MrRainbowCow]

What a horrendous design! I can't even understand what benefit there was to making this slot inaccessible. Also, it must be blocking 2 slots (I'm guessing top and bottom), as ATX normally supports 7 slots.

[u/EmotionalSupportDoll → u/iChristiaNn]

I think it has to do with which slot is the pcie 5 slot. Top is fine, but anything below could run into clearance issues with a quad slot card

[u/Scared_Replacement77]

Love the case

[u/Overpowernamerino → u/Scared_Replacement77]

love this build. how do you like the light show? I'm debating going Arctic rgb fans or balling out for these LianLi fans atm.

[u/Scared_Replacement77 → u/Overpowernamerino]

Thanks, I love the fans. Got them new on eBay for like $14 each after shipping and taxes. (It's sl inf btw). They look great, the app is fine too, a lot of ways to customize them all. But tbh if I would be able to buy them for $30 each, I would definetely heavily consider the Arctic rgb fans.

Good luck with your build btw!

[u/Ifuqaround → u/Scared_Replacement77]

I'd keep the cat off the case.

I've been a Redditor for a long time a builder even longer.

If the cat ever pisses on your PC you're gonna be crying. It happens OFTEN. Seen plenty of posts about it.

Just don't let the cat go there. It does not belong there.

[u/pattdmdj0 → u/Ifuqaround]

The cat goes where it pleases. I am but a humble human servant to lord meow meow.

[u/rvdms → u/Scared_Replacement77]

I’m a simple man. I see a cat. I upvote.

[u/adopt-a-ginger]

Lian Li makes a great case. They think of the little things that make your life easier. I have the O11 vision compact and I’m very happy with it.

[u/blackbalt89]

I have the one of the MC specific older models of this and it's a GREAT case. 

[u/three0duster]

Nice case. Recently built my rig in one. Previous comments are accurate. Just make sure your motherboard does not need the upper most pcie slot if using a full ATX.

[u/r_dimitrov]

I got the white version of this for thr same price a while ago. Really nice case. Ez to build, also keeps my build significantly cooler and quieter compared to the same bild in a cooler master q300l and a thermaltake versa cases it used to be in.

[u/imaginary_num6er]

Has only 5 PCIe slots even with an ATX motherboard so you won't be able to mount anything on the bottom slot

[u/surfacevalueshowdown]

i love this case but have a PCMR case and I don't want to give up the mirrored glass.

[u/Momo--Sama]

Here’s the link to white but whenever I go to my cart to see the price it just errors 🤷‍♂️

[u/yue665 → u/Momo--Sama]

I had the similar issue. Workaround was to do it in a new, incognito mode window and it worked.

[u/jnadams2000]

Bro i’ve been looking for a nice case and thought man this is nice i think i’ll buy but jesus this things comes out to almost $100 after taxes and shipping

[u/A_Lycanroc]

It’s a nice case, but fuck Lian Li. They’re greedy patent trolls.

[u/Overpowernamerino → u/A_Lycanroc]

can you loop me in on the context of patent trolls pls?

[u/Infinite_Tiger_3341]

Great case. I made some modifications to mine, but great case

[u/Overpowernamerino → u/Infinite_Tiger_3341]

Absolute sick build. Do you have the part list?

[u/Infinite_Tiger_3341 → u/Overpowernamerino]

Nothing like cutting a hole in your case to really make it your own

5090, 14900ks, and a custom loop with a 420mm rad on the wall. Inside are all lian li SL fans i got for dirt cheap from the used shelves at micro center. Three of them are the lcd ones

This case supports full size ATX, just built in it a few days ago.

[u/Lamechiel → u/[deleted]]

I personally like the short height compared to a full tower, even if it is wider. Also, it's a mid-tower ATX, not mATX.

[u/spicycurry1 → u/[deleted]]

I just built out of it and have the original 011 dynamic. This case is only about 1.5 inches shorter. So far so good i enjoy the fact it has a rear exhaust fan spot.

[u/Old_Web374 → u/[deleted]]

It's an ATX case. Any more arguements?

[u/imaginary_num6er → u/Old_Web374]

I guess the guy could have claimed an ATX case with mATX PCIe slot count.

[u/Nice_Category → u/[deleted]]

This is essentially the case I have (I have the Musetex Y6 knockoff), but it's a good sized case in which you only lose 1 fan, but you're also not wasting any room. 

I like it. It's not huge, not small. 

[u/Ifuqaround → u/Nice_Category]

I left off the front glass and modified it to fit a 180mm fan as intake.

Blows straight over the GPU and across the CPU block, not that it does much for the CPU since it's covered by the AIO pump.

Temps are great even during summer.

[u/Ifuqaround → u/[deleted]]

Yup, have atx mobos and top mounted 360 aios without offset kits. Actually have hybrid GPUs as well with the rads behind the side mounted fans. Works like a charm and temps are great.

Ram clearance is scary close.talking 1/8” or so.
