Having a glass panel on the top is not a biggie for me but I am curious how the RGB lighting might be directly vertically in a room with the glass panel on top. My build will be sitting on a desk so view of the build from the top is not of much benefit. I'm planning on getting the O11 EVO RGB version as it seems to have most the features I desire although I wish they would update the motherboard bracket to support back connecting motherboards.
I just rebuilt my pc in a regular O11 Vision case, and I switched from 420 to 320 Corsair Link AIO and case fans. I like the cable management more in my case, PSU at the bottom. Also, the new gaps for AIO tubing are great for Lian Li AIO's, but useless for for example Corsair Link AIO's, since their tubing is not long enough. What I don't like in my regular Vision is that when using 2x 120mm back fans, in low motherboard position, are severely obstructed by the case itself. I removed the back bracket that is used to fill the gap at the back, for better extraction airflow. I went all 120mm even for my regular O11 Vision, just because the move to 140mm fans would not yield enough because again ( as in many cases ) the mounting plates have cutouts for both 120mm fans and 140mm fans. IMHO It would be better if case manufacturers offer case variants, or mounting plate variants either for 120 or 140 mm fans. That way the cutouts fit the fans perfectly and don't obstruct them ( and generate turbulence noise ). Other than that remark, the Vision is the best case I've ever built in since the 90's, and is way better than my previous case, the Lian Li Lancool III. Thanks for your review. I'm glad now I'm not going to feel bad watching this new small version beat my normal Vision. Bonus tip for marks on the tempered glass when removing the protective film. Use kitchen vinegar on a cloth to remove the glue residue left by the plastic protection.
i built my new PC back in end of May 2024 with lian li o11 vision case. Now I am regretted because the vision compact is so much better and it is much cheaper!!! what the fish...
Interesting placement in the back. I'm divided on the PSU placement, it's certainly unusual. But hiding the AIO tubes is awesome 🙂 Wish this can be implemented on less wide cases.
Yup doable for a bunch of cases, we may see this more often now 😀 PSU placement is idk, totally personal I guess, but they could have made holes on the bottom part so we can shift it, like it was on all O11 cases...
I agree 100000%. I'd honestly go mesh top with a push/pull aio. Even if I did a side intake aio I also wouldn't use that grommet, it looks terrible. The only way I've seen it look good is when a lcd screen is installed on the massive case forehead
King 95 Pro offers you different things, yet similar, here you have top glass or mesh panel while on the Montech you can do that with the front panel, but with side fan sacrifice... Idk, both are great cases btw 😁
I’m considering nearly the same build. Was that *only* the TL LCD reverse fans on the radiator? I was concerned about their lower pressure/CFM possibly not pulling enough air at high load. What benchmarks did you use to stress that 12th-gen i9?
Reverse only on the radiator, and they are not enough, push pull is recommended and that works, I used that on 7950X and it was better. Cinebench R23 used for stressing the CPU
Nice video man! I think you now only need a white GPU... 😉 Regardless, very clean build and definitely different tubing than mine on the pump/block top.
I bought it and I will do a pc build soon, but as I am doing my first pc build I am concerned about the airflow, I plan to place the 360mm AIO radiator and fans on the other side (PSU side) of the case and add total of 8 fans which I could see from the glass panels, so what should be the optimal air flow?
@@Vinaykuma007 6 intake 2 exhausted? That's probably the worse set up. Rear & bottom for exhaust and side for intake would be a better ratio than 6 to 2.
5 exhaust 3 intake ? It would create negative coefficient inside the case. In other words there won’t be sufficient air for cooling down the components. Even my suggestion of 6:2 is not ideal but that’s the limitation of the case.
Hi will this case work with the lian li hydro shift HSLCD36SW? I would be wanting to use this AIO to route the tubes through the back. Thank you very much for the awesome video.
I just ordered this case. About to the order the same AIO and fans. I wanted to use aio on the and 3 fans on the bottom, 2 fans in fear ( so same with you) Can you explain where you put reverse fans? this whole reverse fans is still new to me
Use 3 reverse fans on the bottom since hot air rises so it makes sense the reverse fans bring in cold air. The two exhaust fans should be at the left where the hot air leaves and on the right side should be the 3 reverse fans. On the top(if you are using mesh) should be the cpu cooler. It’s easier if there was an image to show
I actually wanted to do this too, but I talked with a guy who used to work with intel and builds PC's and stuff a lot. He said essentially that the AIO on the bottom is not recommended, as it would require more work to get the liquid flowing, since it is fighting against gravity. He highly recommends that the AIO is mounted on the side, to increase efficiency. IDK if this is true or not, but it is what he said. Given the lack of a top fan function with this case, it seems there are a few approaches: 1. AIO on side exhausting to the outside and back exhaust and bottom exhaust (Positive pressure vs negative pressure case) 2. AIO on side exhausting with back exhaust and bottom intake (like they have in the video) 3. AIO on side exhausting with bottom intake and back exhaust Someone correct me if I am wrong, but it seems based off my research these are the best.
Reverse blade pull so AIO radiator and bottom are reverse blade intakes. Back fans are push orientation normal blade exhaust. He states configuration between 9:07 - 9:21. Per Lian Li website and other videos this is the recommended config if you're doing the glass top Edit: actually he states in a comment below that only the AIO fans are reverse blade. The bottom fans should still be in a pull configuration you will see the back of the fan facing upwards though
But the radiator gets warm and if the radiator fans are intake they will just pull the hot air in the case? I bought it recently and will do my first pc build and I am not sure about this airflow, I plan on placing the 360mm radiator and its fans on the other side (PSU side) of the case and use a total of 8 fans which I could see from the glass panels, so what should be the airflow?
this is far more an enthusiast case for those that want to show off their build in a more flashy and exaggerated way. its silly to expect fans with this

The hydroshift can actually be mounted on the side with tubes down and it looks neat, better than tubes up too.
I did that in O11 XL model, tubes down, they exit directly on the side and it does look clean 😀There's even that shown in my review of the Hydroshift

Is it only me who believes that the gap between Toppanel and den MB is a bit too much? xD
Yes and no, you'll see in the new build where I used AIO up top, suddenly the gap seems ok 😀
@@LevelUPGamingTechso can we use aio radiator on top removing top glass in 011 vision and vision compact?
@@LevelUPGamingTechis it possible to insert the aio pump in to the shroud from backside if the radiator is placed on top?
@JosephKarthic nope

Does it include a cable riser for mounting the GPU vertically?
no
Is the compact version smaller than regular o11 vision?
Yup 10L in volume
lol, why else would it have compact in the name :)

2024, assembling with i9-12k ... tnx intel!
PS: gorgeous build
The one that "works" 🤣😂
Thanks btw 👍
could someone please recommend me a monitor to go at the top of the mobo for this case thanks
can u leave a link to the AIO used here plz?
It is this one ua-cam.com/video/-qGARHE4FhI/v-deo.html
will this case also support matx btf motherboards? like the project zero matx motherboards?
only ATX btf boards, there are no cutouts for mATX variants
Bottom fans Reverse? rear 2 normal and side 3 lcd normal?
Reverse blade pull so AIO radiator and bottom are reverse blade intakes. Back fans are push orientation normal blade exhaust. He states configuration between 9:07 - 9:21. Per Lian Li website and other videos this is the recommended config if you're doing the glass top
Edit: actually he states in a comment below that only the AIO fans are reverse blade. The bottom fans should still be in a pull configuration you will see the back of the fan facing upwards though
can i use the bottom and side as intake and only have 2 back fans as exhaust.
Absolutely that's what is it designed for
yes this is the configuration he uses in the video
But the radiator gets warm and if the radiator fans are intake they will just pull the hot air in the case?

I'm hesitating between this one and the Lian Li Cool 216, will there be much difference in airflow?
Both will give you more or less same temps, O11 will look better while doing so 😁
I have a 216 its great case but the 011 is alot nicer to look at im going to be buying one soon
Mientras sea un gabinete con cristal cerrado nunca se podra decir que se maximiza el flujo de aire

what the fish， never tidy up the cables and just simply closing the cover to ignore them. :p
The vision compact is so much better than vision and it is so much cheaper too!!!
I choose O11 vision because it's bigger than the O11 compact. If you use a big VGA with riser, the O11 vision is much better. Enjoy!
@ ic. But even compact can fit big GPU no problem rite? And it comes with GPU holder I think?
Costs around 150 eur in Europe and doesn't include any fans, super bad value case
this is far more an enthusiast case for those that want to show off their build in a more flashy and exaggerated way. its silly to expect fans with this
