Dynamic EVO XL - Up to 280mm E-ATX Motherboard - ARGB Lighting Strips - Up to 3X 420mm Radiator -Front and Side Tempered Glass Panels - Reversible Chassis- Cable Management (O11DEXL-W)

This is a great case. It feels sturdy and refined. It’s massive and offers a lot of space for large graphics cards or extra storage. The LEDs look amazing. The case feels ergonomic, enabling future part changes and great options for cable management. The one downside is that its size and weight may limit its usage on smaller desks. Because it is so bulky, it may be cumbersome to move frequently, like if you are in a dorm.

I was reluctant to spend more than $100 on a new case (since there are cheaper similar designs from other brands), but this is completely worth it!! I love the overall aesthetic, and there is plenty of room for cooling and larger gpus. The materials are high quality and it is super sturdy. Building in this case is really easy as well, and it is very configurable. Only wish there was slightly more space for cables in the back. Airflow is excellent - and one of the driving factors behind me picking it (my GPU was getting really hot in the old case). One thing I was sad about is that if you want to flip the orientation of the case, you have to mount the motherboard upside down. I did all the work to orient the case so the glass would be on the right side just to find out that my computer hardware would be upside down, and I didn't like that look at all - so PSA for people wanting to do that. I'm very happy I decided to go for this case, my computer looks so pretty in it and the airflow is keeping my GPU happy!

I recently purchased the Lian Li O11D EVO RGB (ASIN B0CRKVN35N), and overall, it’s an impressive case with a lot to offer — spacious, clean, well-designed, and excellent for airflow. However, there is one major fitment issue that buyers should know about, especially if you plan on installing a 2.5″ SSD behind the motherboard tray. The Good Let’s start with the positives, because there are many. The space inside the case is outstanding. The dual-chamber layout gives you plenty of room to work comfortably, mount radiators, and route cables without feeling cramped. I installed a large GPU and a 360 mm AIO with zero problems, and there’s still room for future upgrades. Cable management is one of the strongest aspects of this case. Lian Li clearly put a lot of thought into the backside compartment. There are channels, Velcro straps, tie-down points, and wide routing gaps that make it extremely easy to build cleanly. Even with a fully modular PSU and multiple accessories, I ended up with a surprisingly tidy backside. Airflow, as expected from the O11 line, is excellent. With support for large radiators and plenty of fan mounting locations, I had no trouble achieving a cool and quiet setup. The tempered-glass front and side panels look premium without suffocating airflow, thanks to the well-designed ventilation paths. Everything about the design feels modern and intentional. The Issue: Back Panel Does Not Sit Right With SSD Installed Now for the problem — and unfortunately, it’s a pretty frustrating one. When mounting a 2.5″ SSD behind the motherboard tray, the case includes rubber stoppers that must be attached directly to the SSD using screws. These stoppers are meant to act as cushions so the back panel can rest against them without stressing the drive. However, once these rubber stoppers are installed, the back panel’s top nubs — the latch points that are supposed to hook into the frame — cannot fully engage. The SSD plus the rubber stoppers push the panel outward just enough that the top corners refuse to seat properly. You can press the panel in, but the nubs won’t catch, leaving the panel slightly proud and preventing it from locking flush like it should. This isn’t a minor cosmetic issue — if the panel can’t latch, it can’t fully secure. I spent a good amount of time repositioning cables and rechecking the SSD mounting, but the clearance issue seems unavoidable. Without the SSD, the panel fits perfectly. With the SSD and rubber stoppers installed (as designed), it simply doesn’t. Final Thoughts This is an amazing case overall: fantastic space, great airflow, premium materials, and some of the best cable management you’ll find at this price point. But the back panel does not sit right when the SSD is installed with the screw-mounted rubber stoppers, and the top panel nubs cannot latch into the frame, which is disappointing for an otherwise premium chassis.

I picked this case out for my cousin because I thought he would like the aesthetic of the glass with the stripes of LEDs on the outside. Well. As long as you pay attention to the orientation of the fan mounting trays when you take them out, this case makes everything easy. There is far more than enough room for cable management in the back, and it comes with several velcro cable ties already installed. You get TONS of space inside for giant tower coolers and long GPUs. No extremely tight spots to run the CPU power connector, which has been an issue in MANY cases. And the PSU hidden in the back? Genius. That leaves space for three 120mm fans to blow directly into the GPU. And yes, you can pack TEN fans into this thing. I am extremely jealous of the airflow, and I bought a case for airflow... Just note that the case comes with zero fans. Unfortunately, I did not check until we were assembling. Heh. All the main panels you have to remove are attached with pegs. There are no screws to remove the side or rear panel. The top comes off with two non-captive thumb screws. The fan trays come out to make everything way easier with one non-captive screw. I didn't do anything with hard drives, but I imagine those are similar. But the best feature of this case is the front panel connector. IT IS A SINGLE PLUG. I didn't have to connect a separate two pin connector for the power LED, storage activity LED, power button, and reset button like every other case. It is one connector. I have been asking for this for years. Everyone I told was very excited about it (but not as much as I was because I am slightly insane). It's the best case I have worked with so far, hands down. Stupid easy to work with and utterly beautiful.

Everyone knows it's a good case. Actually, most people know this as one of the best cases available especially for the price range. I can confirm this is an impressive case and would only suggest a few improvements or things to be aware of before buying. The mesh system in the panels will hinder airflow a significant amount. You will need high static pressure fans for the metal mesh areas, such as the side and top. I currently have thermalright argb infinity mirror fans installed and the airflow of the fans themselves is great, but the metal mesh greatly reduces the airflow. Get high static pressure fans. Some Pros: Extreme amounts of configurations. Beautiful argb light strips unique to this model. Comes with awesome accessories case for screws and such, can store all your pc screws, rubber mounts, etc neatly. Comes with graphics card sag support, unfortunately my card is too short for it, sigh. Some Cons: Metal mesh highly reduces airflow, high static pressure fans required for those areas or just deal with it like I did because I want the fans I have and that's that. Cable management is ok, though is reduced because of the side fan intakes. Doesn't come with any fans, which isn't a big deal as people obviously like buying different fans, though it will make the case eventually cost upwards of $250 and a lot higher depending. Summary: I recommend this case. Actually, I give this case an extremely high recommendation. I've never paid so much for a case and I have 0 regrets, kthx. Because of this case, I now have rgb vomit everywhere and it looks pretty cool, I wasn't even planning on so much rgb vomit, but here we are.

Huge case but amazing airflow RGB rims are top notch and easy to synch. High quality build with room to work. Two chamber is super nice to make a clean build.

Update: 10-2-25 This is still the best case I have ever built in. Still going strong after almost 2 years and I still would pick this case over any other I have seen since. I have done some more fishy upgrades to make it my own : ) Update: 11-26-23 My build is complete, I figured that if my case looks like a fish tank, why not add some fish : ) This is simply the best case I have ever had, and will be my show case for some time. I'm so glad that Lian Li did not tint the glass on this case. Being that the glass is clear, lets the lights colors glow off the glass giving it even more class. If your even thinking of building in this case "and you have the desk space" then don't even hesitate. It is fully worth the money. This was such a "huge" upgrade to my Corsair 680X. In fact, it made that case look kinda small in comparison. I have built my own custom desk and it's sole design is to show off my build. But the Corsair simply did not have the space to show anything. It was a fairly large case but was very small in the actual build area. The Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO XL is simply in a league of it's own. It was a dream to build in and met all the requirements that I needed to replicate my old build, but in something that would actually show it off (compare to my old build pic). There was plenty of room for wire management and even gave me space for my hard drive switch. The build quality is top notch. If I had any complaint at all, it would be that the blanks that they use in the card slots do not stay tight when other cards are in the same locking tab. The blanks are thinner, and feel cheap compared to other brands I have built in, and thus require some sticky tape to keep them from vibrating around. It's a small gripe, but if you have a sub woofer close to your tower, they will vibrate and make noise, and since they are specifically designed for this case, you can't use other blanks to replace them. All in all, this will be the last case I build in for some time. It is my third, and every time I built in one of the older cases, it just didn't feel right. This case is a work of art and will fill the bill for some time. Oh, one other small incidental issue is that due to the design of where the ssd's mount and how they mount, you cannot use a 90 degree sata on your hard drive. The ssd's mount the wrong direction and you cannot hook the sata cable up to them. I ended up just double sticking my drive backwards to the same area since it's the only black sata cable I had. Not a huge issue, just something to note.

Pros: - much strudier than I expected - configurable in ways that make sense (e.g., options for different heights to place the motherboard tray at) - not gimmicky - generous with parts - lots of options for AIOs up to 420mm - best HDD cages I've seen (but how many still use HDDs?) - it's obviously a fish tank case: great if you want to see all your parts (other than the PSU) for when you have flashy RGB fans and what not to show off Cons: - make sure being fish tank/chimney style airflow won't conflict with your build goals - my CPU initially ran much hotter than expected; I needed a rear intake fan, otherwise the GPU partially blocks airflow up to the CPU in the chimney setting but even that only helps so much (limited to 120mm) - I had initially intended this for a dual-GPU system. After all, it seems promising: GPUs no longer only two slots apart. Unfortunately, airflow into the side where an upright card would go did not ultimately seem like it would work well - print in the user's manual is somewhat hard to read - small screw (m3x3?) to hold front and side glass panels in place; seem easy to drop/lose; I already lost one (fortunately comes with two spares); - what size screws are not always labelled in user's manual - wide: make room on your desk or PC stand Overall: This is a surprisingly sturdy case that has sensible configuration options. Building was easy. Things make sense. The downsides are inherent to the type of case it is: Aesthetics will be excellent, but will come at the expense of optimal airflow for many build goals. In particular, I bought this case with dual GPUs in mind. I realized, however, that although I could place them as expected, the airflow to the side GPU would not be good. Likely, I won't be using this case. It would be a good match for what it is intended for (bling!) but it won't work well for everything. (Back to my Meshify 2 XL for dual GPUs!)
