Had to stop the video right at the beginning after describing the challenge. I have already made up my mind way before this video was ever thought of. In May of 2020,. I will be purchasing the Enthoo Luxe 719 . Already planned to be my first ever custom loop thanks to your not so long ago video of your build that you successfully built. That was awesome and congrats again my friend. I know the cases will be different than what you did. But still the challenge for me awaits.
Its quite perfect, almost. Just as with the vanilla 011, i see some bad enginering; the cables that connect to the ssd's in some places hardly fit, very rough. Lian Li should work that out more properly.... Also the connection to the case can be improved, instead of loose screws which can get lost, they should attach it more fancy.
I'll say it again; watercooling. As a community we're bigger than ever. Put a build in, flex tube is fine, show us what it's like, talk about the experience. I remember when we used pond pumps and bike radiators; times have changed. Yet still, the best we often get is radiator compatibility, and maybe a mention of pump mounting or fill/drain ports. I will say the information provided for radiator compatibility here was superb, the best I've seen you ever provide. This is my favourite tech channel, you make beautiful, informative and entertaining content, but you keep avoiding water cooling builds!
As someone that bought the "719" everything and I mean everything in the box including the box itself said "Luxe 2". So that's what I'm calling it 😂 I do love this case though, it's a fine replacement for my aging NZXT Phantom.
@@flako6096 it does not, it's meant to be a fully enthusiast case so it comes with no fans. I bought 2 5 pack of RF120 Deepcool fans and put three in front and three up top and 1 in the back.
Same. But that plus the 1200w revolt x is like 750cad. Just can't justify it. Added the case, PSU, SSDs, and ram to my cart on black Friday, and it was 1500 for just those parts. Couldn't justify it.
@@tarfeef_4268 oof. It takes cables meant for the Seasonic Prime line according to reps, suggesting it is a repurposed 1200 Watt Prime platinum, and the price does reflect that in the US at least. Though I got it almost 15 bucks off on sale, beating the slightly lower usual price of Seasonic's own unit. Still need to order some parts before I can put it to the test but, considering what a high quality 1200 watt psu costs at least in the US we aren't being grifted too harshly. My itx system will have to wait, but I have a 3900x main system planned first using the stock shiny cooler since I can shove in fans to help with temps and it really doesn't get much better on an AIO or loop. Probably will make the itx a low power basic system but if Intel dazzles us in the next two years with something I could also do a good itx board and AIO. Love how many options this case has and I hope Phanteks does the Luxe 3 a little earlier than several years down the road and just makes it that little bit bigger and sturdier so it's not so tight for anyone who goes all out and they can use medium thickness radiators all around with the fans wherever they want them. Still, this is a lot better than what Corsair threw up to compete with the 011 lines.
I got the 719, it's awesome, I have a supermicro server inside it. A bit strange to use this case for a server but I wanted the hard drive storage space.
I've been team phanteks for 4+ years now. I've built in the pro m, luxe, and primo. with my current pc being in a white primo chasis with full hard tubing watercooling. Ive had my eyes on the 719 though for a possible future upgrade for the tempered side panel and to get rid of the hard drive trays i dont use
I wonder where your pc building journey took you. It's been 3 years since you posted this :D In another video I saw the there isn't much room for cable management on the 719, and if one isn't into dual systems (I know I'm not) then it's just wasted space because installing 15-20 fans isn't going to really do much more functionality-wise that 5-10 fans can do.
@@atlantic_love I ended up with a phanteks p600s. Currently running it with a r5 2600 and a 3060 ti. If I was to ever upgrade my case I would probably splurge on cooler master c700m or smt like that
7:13 you can mount brackets if you use a smaller front radiator. For example, I’m mounting a 360mm rad on the front with a small space at bottom for 2 hard drive brackets.
Was down to these very two. I ended up picking up the Enthoo mostly because I was more interested in fan cooling prioritizing the fan screens and a front-to-back flow. Instead of the bottom-to-top/sides. With such stature with claimed support for server-sized motherboards, seeing the e-ATX listed as support didn't seem to beg if the motherboard pan would fit the e-ATX one on order. Sadly the Gigabyte TRX40 Designare was still misaligned with the appropriate screws by about 3-4mm when resting on top of the power supply shroud. I decided to modify the case rather than choose another one. This involved drilling out the rivets for the power supply shroud, which allowed for its (non-destructive) removal leaving the plane on top. There are two good options from here: A Dremel will cut through the plane fairly easily with the red grinder wheels. Then fold the remainder behind the pan. Reattach the shroud leaving an open top of the psu to see the mess of cables. All functionality, dual psu or dual rig, remains. I choose to bend the plane mostly flat and then gently curved it back towards the door such that it would be below and shy of the shroud and its attachment points. Making sure that the power supply was free once reassembled. This strategy requires a small 1-inch right triangle cut from the corner so that the RGB can be retained. The exposed holes on the shroud then became anchors for cable management with the connections on the bottom of the motherboard. The cables themselves ride along with the light diffuser and block the direct light from the RGB strip. Again, all functionality remains, with a slightly squeezed cable space behind the shroud. The shroud can be re-riveted if you like or some small machines screws should work just fine. There are still 4 secured points along the bottom curve, 1 to the back of the case, and 2 on the motherboard pan. This is clearly not as structural but achieves three planes of attachment making it perfectly capable of holding the ITX if that's your goal.
I like both of these cases, but I think I'll stick with my plain old O11 Dynamic. I love the cable management, and I had no problem getting 3 360mm radiators in it. You're reviews are top rate, so rock on, and keep up the good work. I do appreciate it.
I got myself the Lian Li 011 XL and decked it out with 12 x 120mm fans lol. 3 x 120mm in the floor (as intake), 3 x 120mm in the roof, 1 x 120mm rear exhaust and 3 x 120mm on the side as intake. My 240mm AIO is mounter on the side intake with 2 extra corsair SP120 fans for push-pull (mounted behind the motherboard tray)
Pure BS, the O11 existed before Der8auer did anything to the case. The first model was just made of aluminium and had a higher pricetag because of that.
You can install a radiator on the outside of the side panel and have the fans for it on the inside. That's what I did so that I have a 480 26mm in the front and a 360 26mm on the side. I also have a 60mm 360 rad up top. No case modification needed to do this.
it would be really cool if lianli release a wider version of their O11 dynamic that would support 165mm air coolers like the noctua nh-d15. For me as a fan of air cooling it is the dealbreaker for that case and the XL is too big and expensive for a regular air ATX build
You can put Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B in O11 Dynamic and probably Fuma 2, they both are 154.5mm. But I saw a post on pcpartpicker that pipes of Fuma 2 touch the glass panel :/ By they way just replaced my Thermalright 120 SBM with the Mugen 5. It's really nice!
@@streakzzchannel4429 You will have to get a single PSU that supports two systems and it supports motherboards up to SSI-EEB and E-ATX, but the secondary one would have to be Mini ITX
@@clam8418 yeah man thats my problem..my area cant found psi like revolt..which psu has similar power like revolt?did hx1200i can do the same as revolt?
To be hones, i do not think the 011 is good quality, its oke but compare to older, aluminium models it is belowpar. Stupid hdd/sdd metal strip, all have to be scrwed. Hardly enough space to mount the sata powercables, it really gets too tight for my liking. Just feels like they did not think it over well, a rushed porduct. That goes for the sdd-brackets for bottom mounting as well. The 011 is in fact too small, you hardly can mount a rad and fans at the bottom without getting into trouble with the motherboard connections, worse if you have a sata3 connection down there.
I just did a build in the Lian Li case today. I love the extra space for cable management, or not if you so choose. I've always sucked at it. I put three fans, RGB, at the bottom as intakes and managing those six wires cleanly was a challenge , for me at least. If had a rad down there cabling would be easier to hide. But my only complaint about the case is the glass side panel doesn't fit snugly. I had to use a small piece of cardboard to stop it from rattling. I don't see any obvious defects anywhere, it just doesn't fit tight.
Brought the 719. It's my first name brand case and first full tower. Love the features but dislike the ugly grey color (my fault for selecting it). Also note that 480 reads are a bit more limited to use than I thought, but that is mainly because I am used to push/pull. Overall great big case.
Picked up tge o11 two weeks ago. Fantastic case. The side panep where you mentioned you can place ssds are not usable. The sata power cables cant fit in due to how they flex. I had to just zip tie the ssds lol
Using the 719 with a 3 radiator watercooling build... I am using the drive bays in the bottom with a 240mm radiator and it get quite tight to cable up the drives. Also, be careful with EK SE (and XE) radiator in the top. I had to dremel off a couple of locating lugs that were partially blocked by the radiator and preventing the top from being reinstalled.
I just picked the Lian Li for my son's build (Micro Center had a boatload of them). Going with the EKWB distro block and probably 2 360 rads, but still deciding. Will be our first hard line/tubing build.
The TG window on the back of the 719 is done so right. It allows you to show off some nice SSDs if you have them but doesn't force you to show off all your cables in the back that probably don't look great. Why did nobody think of that before?
Honestly, I'd probably still want to buy the Phanteks P400A (RGB variant) over either of these with it's cost in the $70-$90 range, but I'm open to hearing comparisons against it... 🤔
I have the regular 011 and I wish I had the XL. Pretty much Every gripe I had with the standard was fixed with the XL. Mainly the extra spacing at the bottom and setting up for dust filtration when running two 360s in a pull config.
Both cases are great. Personally i would go for the O-11 XL if i had to pick from those 2. For now i have a P600s that i am happy with and so far i am not planning on switching :)
I gave up trying to get a 011XL and since its only 10-15mm taller I figure I could always put a rad outside if I had to. My former Build was the Enthu Luxe and Its a great case, Either one is awesome for watercoolers but the 3rd area you can run a 360 radiator or fans just sold me on the smaller Lian Li 01. I knew Lian Li are great quality because I built a ITX mini pc in their lunchbox case years ago.
O11 Dynamic series is basically the ultimate bar of what we need. Excellent build quality, excellent water cooling support, excellent visuals inside the case.
I almost bought the Lian Li 011, but I went with the Corsair 680X RGB Case. Mainly due to it being the same price as the 011, $199 but now it's $50-$100 more today.
Considering the O11 XL as a replacement for my Corsair 750 D (NON airfow edition) mainly due to the well designed disk caddies and the added flexibility. Finding one is a problem tho.
719 is big just for the sake of being big. 30mm above the motherboard means your VRM will be in the pocket of hot air if you cover them with radiator. So no mounting rad on top. O11 XL has much better use of space. 719 is good only if you want dual system.
Luxe 2. I have been wanting to do a big over the top Water cooled build... Long runs of tubing. Big rads, big res and plenty of room to personalize it... *wink*... But Loads of space. I'm still waiting on the rest of my odds and end parts so I can get it started. Cant wait to build it and post what I'm doing.
I like either of the cases. I am not in the market but considering what my favorite case manufacturer is putting out, I would do a double take on one of these.
This one's easy for me, Lian Li. 1. Brand colabs, Asus + Lian Li + EK (if you're watercooling) 2. all aluminum, rigid construction (biggest selling point) 3. size, I have no need for a dual system and the size is just a pure waste of space for me 4. MADE, DESIGNED, AND ENGINEERED IN TAIWAN!
I just finished my build in the Lian Li XL to replace my original dynamic O11.... no regrets, awesome case. Will be ready for water cooling when my wallet recovers from the upgrade parts!

I have dual 480mm rads in the front/side of my luxe 2. EK slims. Fans mounted on the inside for the front and on the back for the side. Blocks the fill port though. 😉
Great review. .Wow the 719 is huge. I cool on air. The Lian would be better for me. What do you think about the case clearance of the Noctua DH-15S in the Lian. This will be my third Noctua DH-15, but this will be the Noctue DH-15S for RAM clearance. Any help appreciated. The Great Austrian Air Machine RUUUUULES!
I like my 719 but I did have some issues. 1. I'd have liked it to be a bit taller as once you install a rad the fans almost touch my ram. 2. The cable encloser was a nice idea but becomes pointless if your psu takes up all the space as with my axi1200
0-11 D XL for sure :-) it is a much nicer case in my opinion although they both cater to all my watercooling needs the XL just does it a little bit better
Phanteks is unique looking for a basic tower and has far more options. Lian Li looks like a fish tank. I went with Phanteks because I have owned two of their cases before... an Enthoo Pro, which my girlfriend now owns and a 500a which was nice but too small for my 420mm radiator, so I sold it. Now I own two 420mm radiators, which will actually fit in the 719 case. The 'flimsy' metal on the 719 becomes moot once you install fans and radiators. It is that way to reduce weight and costs, which is why it weighs less than the smaller case and costs less, as you pointed out. Thermaltake does the same thing. There's no need for thick metal on cases.
Just upgraded to a Lian LI O11 XL from a Cooler Master CM Stacker 832. The Cooler Master was a nice case for the time when I bought it over 10 years ago but the Lian Li is so much better for cable management
Already have the Luxe 2 and a z390 godlike i9 9900k for main system and an asus rog strix x570i with 3950x for itx system and a custom hard loop ;) oh and you can fit 2 480mm rad in the side and rear at the same time if you use two slim ones (20.5mm) using the rear one, mount the fans in the back and rad in the front 👍
id almost go for the enthoo but id be too afraid to break it. they should up the price a bit and make it stiffer. id be pissed if it broke during assembly or later on from too many fans or whatever. honestly kinda hate how the 011 looks, but i can see how itd be nice to work in
How can an "XL" case not feature 420mm radiator support?! Guess I'm stuck with Phanteks then - but then i'll either choose the Evolv X or even the P600s.
O11 Dynamic has set the bar for what a amazing case should be.
True. The only thing lacking with the 011 is harddisk/ssd mounting. That part is not well thought over, aldo with the XL we get four hdd places. The other places are not well used, and difficult to attach cables. Lian Li shoudl do themselves a favor and fix those minor, but important, details.

Aaaaaaand the 011 XL has officially replaced the 011 Dynamic on my 'Dream Pc' list
I bought the XL. It is a wonderful case. Though I'm poor, so I haven't really compared it to many cases. Before this, I had a 16 year old Dell tower my grandfather had given me.
@@DalionHeartTTV congrats, I am also getting an XL, and the case I had before is the ancient Cosmos II which I managed to stuff a liquid cooling system into. Looking forwards to getting everything built.
@@BetaX425 Have fun. The case was a dream to work with. My only issue was finding a place to shove the fan hub for my 6 (So far) Lian Li Uni Fan SL120s
Ended up getting frustrated and shoved it into a web of cords I wasn't quite able to "manage" Lol I'm new to PC building, bare with me. Lolol
Just got the O11 XL for my new PC, love it
Let me know if you have tested different fan setups. I want to know which is the best setup.
@@resottolamontagna904 Just finished an 011XL build with 8 Noctua fans, 2080Ti SLi awaiting another pkg of G.Skill RAM for 128GB. The fan configuration is bottom 3 intake, back 1 out and top 2 out .... my Threadripper 3970x is just breaking a sweat between 65-75C cruising through the Benchmark tests, with a Furmark V1.21.0.0 GPU average @186 fps slapping the ceiling between 198-202 fps, not more than 3-5 fps between the two GPUs. Lian Li case configured with Noctua CPU cooler and fans is best cooling next to liquid LOVE the hot swapable drive drawers
Had to stop the video right at the beginning after describing the challenge. I have already made up my mind way before this video was ever thought of. In May of 2020,. I will be purchasing the Enthoo Luxe 719 . Already planned to be my first ever custom loop thanks to your not so long ago video of your build that you successfully built. That was awesome and congrats again my friend. I know the cases will be different than what you did. But still the challenge for me awaits.
Good luck! The 719 choice is a good one for watercooling 👏
-D.
OMG the 011 XL is perfect. Rear 120mm fan support is a massive bonus!!!!!
but its too expensive
Its quite perfect, almost. Just as with the vanilla 011, i see some bad enginering; the cables that connect to the ssd's in some places hardly fit, very rough. Lian Li should work that out more properly.... Also the connection to the case can be improved, instead of loose screws which can get lost, they should attach it more fancy.
These were the 2 cases I was considering for my next build. I ended up with the Phanteks case.
How's your case holding up 9 mos later?
Yeah same! I've built in both cases and I personally prefer my Luxe II
@@thatbadASSkidd much more space or ?
I had already bought a 719 the other day it will be here monday!
How are you liking it?
Dumb question but how the hell do I open this window 😂
@@zephaniah666 u have to take the top off then the front and there is a screw that is holding the window door in place
@@Syvirus huge help lol thanks, after I asked you I looked in the manual and it said about the key / screw 😂 thanks for the reply.
Already got the LUX 2 and preparing for a dual system on water. It's all in the journey.
hows the case? thinking of getting myself
@@xtakuanx Spacious for building; great air-flow design. Needs wheels.
I'll say it again; watercooling. As a community we're bigger than ever. Put a build in, flex tube is fine, show us what it's like, talk about the experience.
I remember when we used pond pumps and bike radiators; times have changed. Yet still, the best we often get is radiator compatibility, and maybe a mention of pump mounting or fill/drain ports.
I will say the information provided for radiator compatibility here was superb, the best I've seen you ever provide.
This is my favourite tech channel, you make beautiful, informative and entertaining content, but you keep avoiding water cooling builds!
As someone that bought the "719" everything and I mean everything in the box including the box itself said "Luxe 2". So that's what I'm calling it 😂 I do love this case though, it's a fine replacement for my aging NZXT Phantom.
Angel Hernandez does it come w fans
@@flako6096 it does not, it's meant to be a fully enthusiast case so it comes with no fans. I bought 2 5 pack of RF120 Deepcool fans and put three in front and three up top and 1 in the back.
Angel Hernandez how much do they run I want one but I also don’t want shittt fans yk
Angel Hernandez I see some that are 3 for 45 which isn’t too bad I suppose
Tempted to upgrade from my O11 dynamic to the O11 XL, even though I don't have that much of a reason.
I chose Phanteks 719, lots of space, especially if you have HDDs too
very important
Just bought the 011 XL today on newegg. Both black & white are in stock.
I'm tempted to the Enthoo 719 for a future dual system setup. :)
Same here. In May of next year if all goes right.
Same. But that plus the 1200w revolt x is like 750cad. Just can't justify it. Added the case, PSU, SSDs, and ram to my cart on black Friday, and it was 1500 for just those parts. Couldn't justify it.
@@tarfeef_4268 oof. It takes cables meant for the Seasonic Prime line according to reps, suggesting it is a repurposed 1200 Watt Prime platinum, and the price does reflect that in the US at least. Though I got it almost 15 bucks off on sale, beating the slightly lower usual price of Seasonic's own unit. Still need to order some parts before I can put it to the test but, considering what a high quality 1200 watt psu costs at least in the US we aren't being grifted too harshly. My itx system will have to wait, but I have a 3900x main system planned first using the stock shiny cooler since I can shove in fans to help with temps and it really doesn't get much better on an AIO or loop. Probably will make the itx a low power basic system but if Intel dazzles us in the next two years with something I could also do a good itx board and AIO. Love how many options this case has and I hope Phanteks does the Luxe 3 a little earlier than several years down the road and just makes it that little bit bigger and sturdier so it's not so tight for anyone who goes all out and they can use medium thickness radiators all around with the fans wherever they want them. Still, this is a lot better than what Corsair threw up to compete with the 011 lines.
Me too..will purchase with 4000 series cpu..just curious,how about tempt since 2 system in 1 case and how much psu will be use for this case
I got the 719, it's awesome, I have a supermicro server inside it. A bit strange to use this case for a server but I wanted the hard drive storage space.
At 1:53 He called the Enthoo 719 the 917 :D
I've been team phanteks for 4+ years now. I've built in the pro m, luxe, and primo. with my current pc being in a white primo chasis with full hard tubing watercooling. Ive had my eyes on the 719 though for a possible future upgrade for the tempered side panel and to get rid of the hard drive trays i dont use
I really want the 719... I don't wanna do a dual system or a full open water loop but I still want it. It looks stunning!
I wonder where your pc building journey took you. It's been 3 years since you posted this :D
In another video I saw the there isn't much room for cable management on the 719, and if one isn't into dual systems (I know I'm not) then it's just wasted space because installing 15-20 fans isn't going to really do much more functionality-wise that 5-10 fans can do.
@@atlantic_love I ended up with a phanteks p600s. Currently running it with a r5 2600 and a 3060 ti. If I was to ever upgrade my case I would probably splurge on cooler master c700m or smt like that
7:13 you can mount brackets if you use a smaller front radiator. For example, I’m mounting a 360mm rad on the front with a small space at bottom for 2 hard drive brackets.
Was down to these very two. I ended up picking up the Enthoo mostly because I was more interested in fan cooling prioritizing the fan screens and a front-to-back flow. Instead of the bottom-to-top/sides. With such stature with claimed support for server-sized motherboards, seeing the e-ATX listed as support didn't seem to beg if the motherboard pan would fit the e-ATX one on order. Sadly the Gigabyte TRX40 Designare was still misaligned with the appropriate screws by about 3-4mm when resting on top of the power supply shroud. I decided to modify the case rather than choose another one.
This involved drilling out the rivets for the power supply shroud, which allowed for its (non-destructive) removal leaving the plane on top. There are two good options from here:
A Dremel will cut through the plane fairly easily with the red grinder wheels. Then fold the remainder behind the pan. Reattach the shroud leaving an open top of the psu to see the mess of cables. All functionality, dual psu or dual rig, remains.
I choose to bend the plane mostly flat and then gently curved it back towards the door such that it would be below and shy of the shroud and its attachment points. Making sure that the power supply was free once reassembled. This strategy requires a small 1-inch right triangle cut from the corner so that the RGB can be retained. The exposed holes on the shroud then became anchors for cable management with the connections on the bottom of the motherboard. The cables themselves ride along with the light diffuser and block the direct light from the RGB strip. Again, all functionality remains, with a slightly squeezed cable space behind the shroud.
The shroud can be re-riveted if you like or some small machines screws should work just fine. There are still 4 secured points along the bottom curve, 1 to the back of the case, and 2 on the motherboard pan. This is clearly not as structural but achieves three planes of attachment making it perfectly capable of holding the ITX if that's your goal.
I like both of these cases, but I think I'll stick with my plain old O11 Dynamic. I love the cable management, and I had no problem getting 3 360mm radiators in it. You're reviews are top rate, so rock on, and keep up the good work. I do appreciate it.
If Lian Li made a similar quality as large as the 719 then that'd be great.
That's where I'm at. I want a larger case with the motherboard support moving more center.
I'd personally go with the 719. Im planning a dual system in a P600s at the moment.
i buy the 719 for pc gamer + nas all in one case xD
I got myself the Lian Li 011 XL and decked it out with 12 x 120mm fans lol. 3 x 120mm in the floor (as intake), 3 x 120mm in the roof, 1 x 120mm rear exhaust and 3 x 120mm on the side as intake.
My 240mm AIO is mounter on the side intake with 2 extra corsair SP120 fans for push-pull (mounted behind the motherboard tray)
Nothing can't beat the Lian Li O11, Der8auer put the limits way too high for most of these companies out there...
Pure BS, the O11 existed before Der8auer did anything to the case. The first model was just made of aluminium and had a higher pricetag because of that.
I didn't like the front fans placement as someone who doesn't watercool
@@nauxsi Just the top and bottom as intake and use the front and back as outflow and you will have a very good positive pressure...
Slick redub @0:52
Noticed that as well :D
I bought the Luxe II!!! LOVE IT! You just have to have make sure you fill it up or else it will look bare empty even with s full system in it 😂😂
You can install a radiator on the outside of the side panel and have the fans for it on the inside. That's what I did so that I have a 480 26mm in the front and a 360 26mm on the side. I also have a 60mm 360 rad up top. No case modification needed to do this.
it would be really cool if lianli release a wider version of their O11 dynamic that would support 165mm air coolers like the noctua nh-d15. For me as a fan of air cooling it is the dealbreaker for that case and the XL is too big and expensive for a regular air ATX build
You can put Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B in O11 Dynamic and probably Fuma 2, they both are 154.5mm. But I saw a post on pcpartpicker that pipes of Fuma 2 touch the glass panel :/
By they way just replaced my Thermalright 120 SBM with the Mugen 5. It's really nice!
I went with the 719... One of the best cases I have ever built in.
Wanna ask..can i build 2 system 2 mobo into this case??since wanna stream with out 2 pc case setup..and how about psu?1 or 2?
@@streakzzchannel4429 You will have to get a single PSU that supports two systems and it supports motherboards up to SSI-EEB and E-ATX, but the secondary one would have to be Mini ITX

i have the Lian li Pc-011 XL, and for me it's the best. small size compared with others cases and is very good for watercooling and aircooling
just bought the PC-O11 Dynamic :D
The best case!
i ended up purchasing the Luxe 2(719) and didn't regret it for my dual rad 10 fan threadripper / RTX 2080 custom water loop build .
Case Awards 2019 coming up HYPE
011 Dynamic is too iconic and years from now people will still know and remember them.
I have my current PC build in the 719 and I absolutely love it.
Lian Li means Quality. :)
Lian Li actually means collective power, just sayin'
To be hones, i do not think the 011 is good quality, its oke but compare to older, aluminium models it is belowpar. Stupid hdd/sdd metal strip, all have to be scrwed. Hardly enough space to mount the sata powercables, it really gets too tight for my liking. Just feels like they did not think it over well, a rushed porduct. That goes for the sdd-brackets for bottom mounting as well. The 011 is in fact too small, you hardly can mount a rad and fans at the bottom without getting into trouble with the motherboard connections, worse if you have a sata3 connection down there.
I just did a build in the Lian Li case today. I love the extra space for cable management, or not if you so choose. I've always sucked at it. I put three fans, RGB, at the bottom as intakes and managing those six wires cleanly was a challenge , for me at least. If had a rad down there cabling would be easier to hide.
But my only complaint about the case is the glass side panel doesn't fit snugly. I had to use a small piece of cardboard to stop it from rattling. I don't see any obvious defects anywhere, it just doesn't fit tight.
Would using rubber washers help?
I went with the Lian Li. Amazing build and it was so much fun!
Brought the 719. It's my first name brand case and first full tower. Love the features but dislike the ugly grey color (my fault for selecting it). Also note that 480 reads are a bit more limited to use than I thought, but that is mainly because I am used to push/pull. Overall great big case.
Was your 480 top mounted? I was planning on purchasing arctic 420mm aio and make it push pull top mounted, i wonder if it can be achieved
@@rantaccount5785 Front mounted EK rad because the top won't support a 480.
@@fromearth6282 thanks for the answer man 👍
Picked up tge o11 two weeks ago. Fantastic case.
The side panep where you mentioned you can place ssds are not usable. The sata power cables cant fit in due to how they flex. I had to just zip tie the ssds lol
Using the 719 with a 3 radiator watercooling build... I am using the drive bays in the bottom with a 240mm radiator and it get quite tight to cable up the drives. Also, be careful with EK SE (and XE) radiator in the top. I had to dremel off a couple of locating lugs that were partially blocked by the radiator and preventing the top from being reinstalled.
I just picked the Lian Li for my son's build (Micro Center had a boatload of them). Going with the EKWB distro block and probably 2 360 rads, but still deciding. Will be our first hard line/tubing build.
The TG window on the back of the 719 is done so right. It allows you to show off some nice SSDs if you have them but doesn't force you to show off all your cables in the back that probably don't look great. Why did nobody think of that before?
Honestly, I'd probably still want to buy the Phanteks P400A (RGB variant) over either of these with it's cost in the $70-$90 range, but I'm open to hearing comparisons against it... 🤔
Finally! About time, too, since the end of year is coming up!
Nice work, Dmitry!
I have the regular 011 and I wish I had the XL. Pretty much Every gripe I had with the standard was fixed with the XL. Mainly the extra spacing at the bottom and setting up for dust filtration when running two 360s in a pull config.
can you fit the new 4090 MSI Trio on that 011 evo? I have an evo, that's why I'm asking.
I'd pick the Lian Li. It offers what I need while using up less space.
Both cases are great. Personally i would go for the O-11 XL if i had to pick from those 2.
For now i have a P600s that i am happy with and so far i am not planning on switching :)
I gave up trying to get a 011XL and since its only 10-15mm taller I figure I could always put a rad outside if I had to. My former Build was the Enthu Luxe and Its a great case, Either one is awesome for watercoolers but the 3rd area you can run a 360 radiator or fans just sold me on the smaller Lian Li 01. I knew Lian Li are great quality because I built a ITX mini pc in their lunchbox case years ago.
Yesterday I received my TT Level 20 HT Snow - that one is the best for me
O11 Dynamic series is basically the ultimate bar of what we need. Excellent build quality, excellent water cooling support, excellent visuals inside the case.
I want this with 140mm fan (
Phantek enthoo luxe 2 is amazing
I almost bought the Lian Li 011, but I went with the Corsair 680X RGB Case. Mainly due to it being the same price as the 011, $199 but now it's $50-$100 more today.
O11-XL for me with an all black D-15.
Considering the O11 XL as a replacement for my Corsair 750 D (NON airfow edition) mainly due to the well designed disk caddies and the added flexibility. Finding one is a problem tho.
719 is big just for the sake of being big. 30mm above the motherboard means your VRM will be in the pocket of hot air if you cover them with radiator. So no mounting rad on top. O11 XL has much better use of space. 719 is good only if you want dual system.
Luxe 2. I have been wanting to do a big over the top Water cooled build... Long runs of tubing. Big rads, big res and plenty of room to personalize it... *wink*... But Loads of space. I'm still waiting on the rest of my odds and end parts so I can get it started. Cant wait to build it and post what I'm doing.
I like either of the cases. I am not in the market but considering what my favorite case manufacturer is putting out, I would do a double take on one of these.
This one's easy for me, Lian Li.
1. Brand colabs, Asus + Lian Li + EK (if you're watercooling)
2. all aluminum, rigid construction (biggest selling point)
3. size, I have no need for a dual system and the size is just a pure waste of space for me
4. MADE, DESIGNED, AND ENGINEERED IN TAIWAN!
What ever happend to the Hardware Canucks 800D done by Bill Owen??
I have a 719, but I bought it when it was still called the Enthoo Luxe 2.
I have an ASRock X570 aqua to put in it. Just waiting for a 3950x.
How your result?
I've got both the o11 and XL and wanted the XL for more radiator support. Building a new hard line system with the g1 distro block.
Now running the luxe 2 so happy with it
I just finished my build in the Lian Li XL to replace my original dynamic O11.... no regrets, awesome case. Will be ready for water cooling when my wallet recovers from the upgrade parts!
@@goldoryellow6882 they have a silver(looks very similar to the white version) version coming out on december 17 its available for pre order on newegg and you can find it on amazon but you cant pre order it on amazon

I have dual 480mm rads in the front/side of my luxe 2. EK slims. Fans mounted on the inside for the front and on the back for the side. Blocks the fill port though. 😉
Waiting for the delivery of my 719 for a Ryzen 9, 2080 ti SLI build. Pretty stoked as it's my first full custom water cooled build for myself.
Sli in 2020... lol.
Very nicely cover all specs 👌
Great review. .Wow the 719 is huge. I cool on air. The Lian would be better for me. What do you think about the case clearance of the Noctua DH-15S in the Lian. This will be my third Noctua DH-15, but this will be the Noctue DH-15S for RAM clearance. Any help appreciated. The Great Austrian Air Machine RUUUUULES!
I like my 719 but I did have some issues.
1. I'd have liked it to be a bit taller as once you install a rad the fans almost touch my ram.
2. The cable encloser was a nice idea but becomes pointless if your psu takes up all the space as with my axi1200
0-11 D XL for sure :-) it is a much nicer case in my opinion although they both cater to all my watercooling needs the XL just does it a little bit better
It has way too many great feature like the hot swapable hard drive bays and although it's big it looks compact at the same time.
I'm thinking of building my 3nd pc and thinking I might go with thr Phanteks Enthoo 719.
Phanteks is unique looking for a basic tower and has far more options. Lian Li looks like a fish tank. I went with Phanteks because I have owned two of their cases before... an Enthoo Pro, which my girlfriend now owns and a 500a which was nice but too small for my 420mm radiator, so I sold it. Now I own two 420mm radiators, which will actually fit in the 719 case.
The 'flimsy' metal on the 719 becomes moot once you install fans and radiators. It is that way to reduce weight and costs, which is why it weighs less than the smaller case and costs less, as you pointed out. Thermaltake does the same thing. There's no need for thick metal on cases.
As an owner of the 011 XL, I’m eye balling the 719
I'm curious, if you bought the XL in the last few months is the ROG logo etched in the glass or is it a sticker?
Dirty Windshield feels like a sticker but I haven’t tried to take it off yet
Just upgraded to a Lian LI O11 XL from a Cooler Master CM Stacker 832. The Cooler Master was a nice case for the time when I bought it over 10 years ago but the Lian Li is so much better for cable management
Already have the Luxe 2 and a z390 godlike i9 9900k for main system and an asus rog strix x570i with 3950x for itx system and a custom hard loop ;) oh and you can fit 2 480mm rad in the side and rear at the same time if you use two slim ones (20.5mm) using the rear one, mount the fans in the back and rad in the front 👍
I got an 011 air and I wish I waited for the 011 XL.
What's your reasoning?
@@toneabet6252 because of my hardware choices. It's a decent case otherwise but they improved some of the things in the XL.
@@tacticalcenter8658 ok Thanks I will get the XL then. I have 2x360mm rads I need to fit
@@toneabet6252 Use them on the top & bottom of the case. Get a Ecko block for the side of the case!
The new 7000d airflow fits 3 aio's without bottom mounting a radiator
I'm leaning towards the O11 xl. It looks like it's built better and will show off my hardware and water cooling better.
id almost go for the enthoo but id be too afraid to break it. they should up the price a bit and make it stiffer. id be pissed if it broke during assembly or later on from too many fans or whatever.
honestly kinda hate how the 011 looks, but i can see how itd be nice to work in
I'd like to see a full 140mm version of the 011 which fits 420mm rads. Instabuy.
i love my enthoo 719, had for 2 years and change. only issue was running some fans since the case is so damn tall 😂
I plan on building my custom loop TR 3970X in the Enthoo case.
Did Dmitry say Timbit instead of tidbit on purpose @0:39 or was he just hungry?
Very informative review, thank you
I just got the 719, cable management is a bit hard for me, but otherwise great case, planning to add a second system in the future.
Hi Dimitri, great video as always. Is there any chance you could review the Deepcool macube 310? Thanks :)
How can an "XL" case not feature 420mm radiator support?! Guess I'm stuck with Phanteks then - but then i'll either choose the Evolv X or even the P600s.
O-11 XL gets delivered tomorrow!
Let me know if you have tested different fan setups. I want to know which is the best setup.
Re sotto la Montagna look up Gamer Nexus video. They have a review and posted best set up. They did it more in depth with the o11 dynamic non XL.
