Review on 🖥️ Lian Li LANCOOL II MESH RGB White LAN2MRW Tempered Glass ATX Case - The Ultimate White Gaming Case with Mesh RGB Design - LANCOOL II MESH RGB White - LAN2MRW by Ralph Gerry

I purchased this tower to migrate existing components from a full-size tower that I found to lack ventilation. The build is as follows: • Lian Li Lancool II mid-size case (obviously) • MSI Z390 Gaming Pro Carbon AC motherboard • Intel I9-9900K processor • Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3200 (PC4 -25600) Desktop Memory (another 32GB will be added) • Corsair H100i RGB Platinum AIO Liquid CPU Cooler • EVGA Supernova 850 G5 80 Plus Gold 850W Power Supply • EVGA Geforce RTX 2060 Super XC Gaming 8GB GDDR6 Dual Fan RGB LED Metal rear panel and Powerlink connection • Samsung SSD 860 1 TB, 2.5" SATA III, Internal Solid State Drive (boot drive) • 3 hard drives of different brands with a total storage capacity of 7 GB. • Case fans Corsair QL140 RGB – 2 pcs. (front air intake) • Corsair QL120 RGB case fans x 3 (1 rear air exhaust, 2 instead of ML120 fans on H100i heatsink). Pros: • Assembling this turret was fairly easy. is actually quite simple in some respects. • Hinged bottom panels, adjustable hard drive enclosures (up to 3, which I use all), removable front and side panels, and multiple access points between the left (CPU) and right sides of the tower have a lot to do with ease of assembly. • The ventilation around this tower is much better (which is what I expected). Replaced the full tower he had consistent temperatures across the board - CPU, Memory, motherboard - which were 5 to 6 degrees Celsius warmer than expected when idling (35 to 36 degrees C for CPU) which made me worry about "wear out". . The design of the Lian Lancool II tower idles about a degree less than expected (29-30C for the CPU) with two 140mm intake fans at the front, 1 120mm exhaust fan at the rear and one 240- mm liquid fan. Top AIO cooling in LanCool vs. 2x 140mm front intake fans, 1x 120mm top intake fan, 2x 140mm bottom intake fans, 1x 140mm rear exhaust fan and 280mm AIO liquid cooling on top. in the replaced tower. I expect the same temperature differences when a new tower is loaded. • The motherboard stands were positioned perfectly! This is the first time for me. I just put the motherboard back in and all of the screw holes on the motherboard lined up perfectly with the tabs. There were no problems with the screws either. Another first for me! • Magnetic attachment of base and glass side panels greatly facilitates access to internal mechanisms. By pushing the hard drive housing a little forward, the power supply unit including the cable can be installed quite easily. • The end result looks good and works well. Cons: • The "panels" on the right that are supposed to hide the cables don't work. with me with the usual thick power cable. The only way to use them is to pull the power cords taut on that side, making the left and more visible side appear cluttered with excess cables. Since the right side glass case is hardly fixed. I might have to scratch my head and experiment a bit to improve this, but as long as it lasts I'll probably leave it alone. • The installation guide is mostly a collection of images and can be a bit confusing for those doing their first build. One thing I noticed was that the RGB wiring on the front was showing up completely wrong. The front panel fits perfectly with the three slots on the frame. There are 2 cables for the RGB front panel. One cable is a SATA connection for power from the 2 RGB buttons at the top of the front panel and a 4-pin RGB cable coming from those buttons. to connect to a small 4-pin cable that runs from the bottom of the front panel. The manual incorrectly lists 1 4-pin connection going to the LED header on the motherboard. never mind And connect 2 4-pin cables as above. • As described above, a guide is a set of images with a one-sentence description of each image. Some of them are easy and some will leave you scratching your head. It's not that big of a problem for me as I've done multiple builds in the past. • No HDD LED. It was a bit of a surprise. Not a big deal, but it's always nice to know assembly data is being accessed. • The RGB lighting on the front looks blah. There are multiple display options with 2 RGB buttons at the top of the front panel. but the results are pretty much in line with the latest generation. I went with a solid blue for the front and the RGB on the motherboard, memory, case and AIO fans made the tower shine. , completely covered by these metal plates; Why not make the turntable out of metal instead of metal? Cup? What's the point of having a pane of glass if all you can see is metal (or in my case a bunch of wires)? This isn't a big issue for me as my desktop location (as shown in the image) highlights the left side, just a suggestion. In general, I like this tower. This solved my venting issues and I had no assembly issues other than the tight fit of the right side panel. If you click "Pictures" in the installation guide (suggest to go to Lian's website and download it), I recommend the tower, especially at this price point, although I recommend investing in several fans (2 140M and 1 120MM ). ) to replace the 3 main 120mm fans. I rate it 4 out of 5 for the few little things above.
