Lian Li Lancool 217 Case Review: Thermal Benchmarks, Noise, & Cable Management
Sponsor: Thermal Grizzly Duronaut on Amazon - https://geni.us/tpgcPMw
This review of the Lian Li Lancool 217 benchmarks it for thermal performance in CPU and GPU testing, including its "CPU Mode" and "GPU Mode" options, and also evaluates acoustics and noise levels. We test the Lancool 217 for build quality and assembly, radiator and PSU compatibility, and its features. Competition and alternatives to the Lian Li Lancool 217 include the Fractal Meshify 3, the Antec Flux and Flux Pro (and Antec C8), the Montech HS02, and a few other cases that we talk about throughout the review.
