Honestly Mr Prawn, you inspired me to build my first ever PC which I am in the middle of right now and I cant thank you enough. I have watched so many of your videos and learnt everything from you, it is very much appreciated. I am currently building a 4090 with the i9 13900K in this same case, and one thing that interests me by this video, you swapped the black cables for those beautiful white cables from the GPU to the PSU, and the larger cable ( the 24 pin one from the PSU into the motherboard I believe its called). So I have the Z790E motherboard and the Corsair RM1000X PSU, Is it possible to get those white cables for these? I just want to be sure it is safe to use different cables. Thanks again! @TheProvokedPrawn
Point to note at 22:12 for anyone doing a build where they need more usb headers. I had this same problem where my board only had 2. You can splice one cable into two. Just remove the cables pin, and put them in the same order red, green, yellow, white, black etc. in the empty hole on the cable you want to join, and you will be good to go :) They are designed to have two cables pass through that same header. This will save you the headache of trying to find a usb 2.0 splitter.
I recently bought a bunch of new parts for my new build. I watched your video and it made me double check the motherboard that I ordered. I made the same mistake as you! I ordered a DDR4 version. Luckily I was able to add a little extra and swap for the DDR5 version. Crisis averted because of you. Big thank you !
The standard horizontal GPU mount looks better IMO, otherwise you're just looking at more fans. The side profile and backplate present a better overall appearance as you have plenty of visible fans already.
I’ve only just come across your channel but I have to admit, listening to you talk over these videos is great, your voice is weirdly relaxing 😂 had my 2yo son next to me watching and he was actually dozing off! This build is great and has gave me some inspiration for the build I want to save up for!
Hilariously I can never get my kids to sleep at bedtime
@@TheProvokedPrawn hahah! I know that feeling, we have our Son who’s 2 and daughter who’s 8 months, along with a 9 week old puppy! Mad house is the only description!
Just in time for first time builders like me 😜. Thanks for posting and props for the hard work producing multiple videos surrounding the fans and motherboard. This is exactly the video I needed for my aforementioned build with a 13600k in a Hyte Y60 case. Thanks again and LF to your future videos. 🤙🏽😎
Thanks for the appreciation. Hope it all helps!
I just built in this case and watching you helped me understand some of the mistakes I made as well!
Glad to help!
Thank you for your videos, I already bought lian li 10 fans and Evo Case :)
ruclips.net/video/0wPi_zNzKF4/видео.html
@@TheProvokedPrawn How do you think, 1200 watts enough for build what you have?
thank you for the explenation of the connecting the lian li fans to the nzxt cables, i am currently building and it is exactly what i needed :)
I'm doing a 14700k build with a 4070 Super. I purchased a Corsair Rm850x. I used the PSU calculator on Newegg and added 200 watts. I only have 1 m.2 for storage and no optical drives, spinners, etc. I thought that would be enough but after watching this video I'm nervous. Maybe I should have gotten a 1000w, Awesome video!
If you used a calculator to work it out it's probably fine
Thanks for the video. I've been smashing my head against the wall trying to find a good DDR5 Z790 and they're just unreliable at the moment
this is my exact dream build looks phenomenal
Thanks Sevcn
I've got the same case with the same mobo. what a looker it is.
I’m 2 weeks away from a very similar build. Dynamic EVO case so a bit more room, cpu, fans, cooler all same, Asus z790 gaming-E, Asus TUF 4090 and Seasonic 1600W platinum. I will have to follow literally same steps and would definitely run into same issues. You spared me of more than 1h of pure frustration 😅 i hate nothing more than disassembly and repeat. I saved your vid as i will watch it again to nail down all the right steps to avoid traps 😊 Big thanks 🙏
Hopefully you watched the other one too as I went into more depth there 👍
I just built basically t his, but I went with the Maximus hero z790 w/13900k, asus tuf 409 and the seasonic 1300w platinum.
@@TheProvokedPrawn Thanks, will definitely do! :)
@@Kmaitland89 I am building the same with 13900k/4090 and his setup with the Lian Li v2 SL120s. Is a 1300W power supply enough? 1500 just seems way too large but I definitely dont want to go under.
2:37 what they do is that they also release a DDR4 version across all their z790 boards, so it is important to look for that but also, just read ALL THE DETAILS first.
Whew! Stellar build, and see where things get a bit fiddly. The end result can't be beaten! Very nice work and glorious rig, indeed. Cheers
Glad you like it!
Toss that Radiator on the roof of the case, cooler GPU but warmer liquid temp. It could also help hide some cables above the motherboard
Really enjoyed your video. Similar build using MSI Carbon Z790 and MSI Suprim X 4090. Thanks for all the tips! Cheers
Thanks Denis! It's a great case
found your video and realized at 12am i had the wrong ram, thank you
Glad to help
not only is the side rad bracket removable ~ it's also reversable
You can install the pump with the tubes on the bottom side. Nzxt recommends that.
I did a push pull setup with nzxt usb hub, 3 corsair controllers and the 2 lian li controllers and psu top mounted. I was barely able to close the case after almost giving up due to almost not being able to fit everything. It was only my 2nd build and I recommend planning everything out before installing anything. I ran into a few problems that would have saved me a lot of time and space. The advantage of having the psu top mount is I was able to throw a commander pro into the bottom of the case and two controllers on top of the psu and 1 controller in the drive cage. The main disadvantage was the 24 pin strimer was jammed into the psu cables output/input and those hard plastic ends don't bend. You mentioned planning ahead as well and it's really important when you have a lot of hardware. I wish there was a cable mod shorter psu cables set that cut the length in half for this case.
Very detailed and informative as per usual. Great job Mr Prawn. 👍
Thank you 💖
I have the exact same complaints about the uni fans cables. The daisy chain cable is also bit short IMO. For example you wanna chain together the bottom and side intake fans and its complicated since the daisy chain connection is not in the middle of the fan but more on one end. So when you put bottom fans as intake the connector is more closer to the sidepanel than to the back and same thing happens to the side intake - the power connector is more closer to the motherboard than to the front panel and the daisy chain cable wont reach. Infinity fans had the connector in the middle for equal length and reversable cable direction - why make it worse? And in my case I'm talking about Lian Li Dynamic EVO case not some random XXXXXXL case. So all those reviews where it shows how the fans can be daisy chained are doing it on the table with very close distances and nothing in the way but when actually putting them into the case and starting to reroute them its not so easy anymore.
The flat connector cable direction should be switcable. I mean the V2 fans are newer than infinity and those had reversable cable modules - why TF did Lian Li remove that possibility?
And I 100% agree with power connector - since the power connector connects to the side of the fan it allready shortens the length right a way because you have to reroute it around the fan first and then through the grommet holes to the back. Its especially painful with the bottom fans because the cable connects to the fan facing the I/O and then you have to reroute it around the fan and back towards the middle fan and then through the hole to the back but in there you have to reroute it around PSU and its just not long enough. Yeah you could put the uni hub in front of PSU (if its regular length) but then the top fans connector wont reach. What would help to certain degree is a splitter that the infinity fan 3 pack contains but obviously we don't get that. What would also help is a extension cable but since lian li uses its own 7 pin connector there is no such thing. And ofcourse you can't purchase the splitter separately.
So at the moment the damn thing works but its a complete mess in the backside with uni hub just dangling in air and cables barely reaching it. Massive dissapointment.
Removing the cage above the power supply gave me a lot more room
i have this case but its not easy to get my 4080 asus strix in it 😅
I'm in the process of putting together a build list for a 011D Mini. A lot of great pointers and ideas here, as well as what to what to look out for. I always try my best to think EVERYTHING through before building. But try as I might, there's usually something I over look. Subbed, and I'll be stalking!!
Glad to help.
Awesome video! I got this case and your warnings about how small it is are quite valid. I had to return it because of this. Got the O11 Dynamic XL instead. So much better. Wish Lian Li had released the NEW Evo XL but not yet.
What are you running that this case is too small??? It's one of the larger mid size towers
@@CILINKY I'm a wedding photographer & videographer. It's a work only build. I have 4090 founders, 7 fans, 360 aio, 2ea 18TB hard drives, 2ea 10TB hard drives, 2ea 4TB ssd, 3ea 2TB M.2, 64GB ram & 1200 Watt PSU. For gamers the Evo is perfect. For some content creators it's good. For heavy work stations it's the Dynamic XL.
'New Evo XL Case'???
@@potvinsuks8730 lian li is doing an Evo version for the Dynamic XL case. You can see it on their youtube channel
@Cielinky Thank you! Yeah, I was absolutely FLOORED when I saw what they have in store for us through Steve's Channel in Gamers Nexus where Steve literally went to LianLi's Lab and saw some of their new products in the pipeline including the new XL!
So excited!
Well late responding. I picked up a Phanteks Enthoo Pro 2 full tower and am going with the Asus ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING WIFI (DDR5 version). First build in 8 years so been watching a lot of vids.
Hope mine helped
Am I the only one who likes SL fans more than Infinity ?
+Nice video as always , keep it up
No. Loads of people on my infinity fan video said they preferred the originals. Which I thought was mad. 🤣
I’ve just bought this board specifically because it’s ddr4. Ddr5 ram still very pricey in Australia, and I already have 64gb of low latency ram
You guys get really rough pricing down there in Oz don't ya :(
Just did my first build. If you want to see same case(I think his is XL too right?), aio, cpu but with 10 Corsair QL’s I will throw in a link(very different board and gpu tho). Im also using the thermal grizzly cpu retainer. I’m not a tech tuber or anything. I’m in the process of resleeving every cable. Waiting on 24 pin and 8 pins from cable mod
These build videos involving the Dynamic Evo have been my guide for the past day. They have been so helpful. I didn’t do an aio cause I have the irrational fear it’ll leak. However, your build looks amazing! Though I have the Lian Li fan hub and at the moment it’s smushed with the wires bending badly and I can’t take out the hide cage since I plan to install mine. Do you know a good place to put the fan hub so the wires can breathe a bit better?
17:54 LOL, that cage can be flipped out and turned around.
27:49 oh heck nah!! LOL
with the sl fans connected to the aio cable instead of the sl controller, how do you control the rgb on the fans, through nzxt cam?
I have the same question lol
Seems a bit odd to use so many M.2 drives. Why not just get a single larger drive using PCI-E 4 and then partition it for OS, files, and then games? You've no doubt spent just as much if not more money on multiple drives than you would on a single 2TB drive. Plus they'll collectively consume more power, add heat, and you've taken up all your slots so you have no more room for future expansion without replacing a drive. Not to mention the performance penalty of falling back to PCI-E 3. Having a single larger drive seems to make more sense. Love the overall build though. Looks beautiful!
One is for the OS and software, another is for video files and another. And one is purely for games and the other is for gameplay footage. Nearly all the drives are full and I have a 20TB NAS. I need a lot of storage space for all the things I do. They also run at PCIe gen 4 x 4 speeds on this board as well.
I was a little disappointed that the hx1500i didn't come with the Corsair connector for 600w included and I couldn't ever find a moment it was in stock so I bought a cablemods cable instead. Also it was interesting than the new HX PSU didn't come with braided sleeved cables like my last gen hx1000 did. Regardless it's support my 13700kf and 4090 no issues as you would expect. Though I know my old hx1000 would have done the job zero issues too.
The cablemod cable looks great though.
i wonder if lian li have patent the fan connection design so no other company can copy. It's such a brilliant design
In-Win did it first, great fans

My apologies if this was asked before but I'm curious what power supply cables your using. I'm in the process of buying the components for my next build and I really like their look.
Assuming you mean the RGB ones, it's these ruclips.net/video/TH2s_mxAGM4/видео.html
Hey! Big fan of your builds. I'm about to tackle my first solo build. At 19:55 you mention about going into the bios to disable the mb from changing fan speed or a pop up will happen during windows log in. Can you explain where to go exactly? I'm putting an NZXT Kraken 240 on an amd 7 7700x and I'll have a ROG Strix B650 in a 011 dynamic mini. I'll be putting lian li infinity fans in and plan to follow your other video in putting an ARGB splitter cable to control the rgb through L Connect 3 and then hopefully fingers crossed my NZXT AIO can control fan speed and run the AIO through the MB. I appreciate any and all help I would be lost without your videos! 😅
ruclips.net/video/fz_mL7nhelo/видео.html
@@TheProvokedPrawnthank you greatly appreciated!!
What fans would you ideally be daisy chaining with the SL120 V2 fans in this case? The top with the side? And just send the single and bottom to the back?
Hey I Plan building a pc with a 13900k and I want to use the same motherboard like you. Now I wonder if the 16+1 power stages are enough for this massive cpu while being overclocked.
Thanks for the nice nice video. 😊
Hey PP! great video and videos. I was so glad to find your video after having some difficulty with my build. turns out I have the exact same case, cooler, 9 fans and motherboard (AMD version for 7950x). my GPU is also same series but 3070 (this PC is built to process astrophotography and doesn't utilize any GPU processing for that). Here's the thing I got very excited when i saw you pull out the double white wire for power and RGB control at the top of your cooler run of fans but for some reason I couldn't find one in my box. Granted I did buy 3 times 3 packs because all the single fans were a week longer delivery. so maybe the dual cable came in a single box? Also, I had a fit of a time with getting all three to reach the controller. I ended up pulling forward my PSU and running it behind it and pulling the HDD cage out altogether. I am running 3 times 2TB firecuda 530s so i didnt need it anyway. Don't know if it is any benefit to you for me to respond to a 3 month old video but I wanted to share my gratitude and help if i could. CHEERS!
Thanks for the comment 🙂 the cable does come with single fans. Lian Li also says it has longer cables now or you can purchase them separately apparently.
@@TheProvokedPrawn I would trade them 6 jumpers and 6 power/controller wires for 1 or 2 long ones =P. Thanks for the response!
So i got my V2's over the weekend, and loving that i got rid of 10 case fans x2 cables lol.
Question, for my radiator which had 3 fan cables, i didn't plug anything, thus the readings from MSI Center for my AIO was zero.
My question is connecting to Sync1 same thing as Port? so i can still manage my rgb from lconnect3?
For exhaust i was thinking of doing the same thing, as the cable is so short for port connector and the orientation needs to be at the bottom if i want a nice sync on my case from exhaust to intake at bottom.
Wait so you don’t have to plug the Daisy Chain cable into the motherboard at all? You take Fans > Daisy Chain Fan Cable and that’s it? The AIO_PUMP controls the AIO Fan speeds?
Am I correct?
UPDATE: Well I believe I’m correct, the daisy chain comes from the pump, it’s getting power from that and that’s all you need to power the Lian Li UNIFAN’s.
NEW QUESTION: If the fans are ultimately being controlled via Pump’s speed… well how will it know to ramp down by default as pump’s default speed is 100%. This means those Lian Li fans on Radiator are going to be running 100% which is very annoying.
Any thoughts?
With all 4 M.2 drives installed, is your graphics card still able to run at X16?
Beautiful 👌
Does anyone know if you could fit three 140mm fans up the top of this case with the 360mm side mount radiator having three 140mm fans infront and three 120mm fans behind in a push pull setup? 🤔
Hey man, great video. What are your temps on that 13900k in this guild under stress?
^This please!
Great video h,. It is helping me build my very first PC , thank you .. Just one question … the sl inf 120 singe fan connector I used on z73 as group cable for radiator fans the rgb connection has no slot for the Lian li hub, it only looks like a mother board rgb connection?
I love lian li but L-connect is the hottest garbage software I have ever seen to the point where im thinking of rolling my own fan controller software...
Why garbage? I'm thinking about getting these fans
@@tracks_ it actually lags your whole system when you launch it. Like adds 2x to my boot time because it lags my 7950x 4090 system so hard. Also the app crashes sometimes.
I agree, L-connect is trash and it constantly uses 9-10% CPU according to task manager. I run it, set the fan speed and color then uninstall the thing.
@@BalkanBiker unfortunately it wont keep my fan curves if I do that so I have to leave it running
@@boot-strapper try Corsair Commander instead of LianLi?
I just realized I have 6 exhaust and 1 intake....
Well that’s unfortunate to hear the L-connect is horrible. I like NZXT cam but their RGB fans look really mundane. So I went Lian Li after seeing Prawns videos. This might be a isolated incident but for anybody else was it basically impossible to find a controller outside of the 3 pack 120? I’m only running 1 120mm. I’m still waiting for my controller to come from Germany….
You can buy it from AliExpress I believe, but yes, the triple pack is the best way.
@@TheProvokedPrawn I only needed 1 so I didn’t want to buy the 3 pack just to leave 2 in the box to get the controller crazy local pc stores stock Corsair / NZXT controllers but not Lian Li
13:05 LOL LOL!!
Something I noticed while watching the installation segment, you seemed to put M.2 drives in each slot if I am not mistaken, which may impact performance of your graphics card significantly. I am unsure if this is the case for this exact board, as I cannot find the channel specs for it, but most of the high end ROG boards actually have the PCIe slot for the graphics card share a lane with one of the m.2 slots, meaning that it will drop from x16 mode to x8 and hamper performance by something like 2/3 in terms of data bandwidth.
No significant impact in my experience
im struggling to fit the mag z790 tomahawk motherboard in a lian li case. any advice?
Hi, I wanted to thank you for your videos. This build is almost exaclty what I want to do and watching it has answered quite a few questions I had about using the Kraken in a build, but replacing the fans with Lian Li fans. I did want to ask you what software you use to run the LCD screen on the Kraken as well as all of the lighting in the build as I've been trying to research and figure this out. It's turinng into a rabbit hole. I've read posts indicating you can use CAM and SignalRGB together if CAM starts up after SIgnalRGB, but other posts that indicate CAM does not play well with other RGB software. I've also read that CAM does not currently have the ability to control RGB RAM. There is also a product called KrakenZPlayground, but I'm not sure if it works as well as CAM to control the AIO. I'm also guessing if I go down this road, I should try and find an older Z model and not use one of the newer Elite models as the compatibility may be even less with the newer models.
Anyway, I'm really interested in what your solution was, here.
I personally use Cam for the display, L-Connect for the fans and then the RAM is controlled by the motherboard software (in my case that's Asus ROG Armoury Crate). I've not dabbled in Signal RGB I'm afraid.
Super interested in where you got those clips on the AIO tubes. I have the same AIO and couldnt find them.
Does Lconnect3 software have to be running to maintain only the rbg effects? Im using it for lights only so will I be able to only open it to change color and pattern and then close it for good? BTW yur channel has been a godsend for me, ive been out of the loop for 7 years so its been very helpful to watch these tutorials
Didnt see the link for the usb cable, y header? Fixing to build in this case with i9 3900k rog strix z790 mb ddr5..could maybe you show me a picture of the io plate on the back of the case pls.. used to them being flush mount.. but with my case its sunk in.. thanks bud.. good build.
Nice. I love videos where not everything is perfect and we can learn more from mistakes. About to do a white build also, and was really looking at this mobo, it looks so good but unfortunately it is DDR4 and really wanted to bump to 5. Can't decide whether to go with ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-E or MSI MPG Z790 EDGE, $200 for better bios options?
Wow im stuck between these two exact motherboard options. If you chose one, could tell me why and how its worked out for you so far?
@@dude5skater I finally put together my pc. Went with the msi since it was cheaper and put the money towards a better processor. IO on mobo was a pain to get in place, had to force the screws on, stand offs didn't fit perfectly. The lian li case has a fat cable for the usbc and its right where the anti sag bracket for my 4080 card would go. I had to use the lian li anti sag instead of the one that came with the gpu. Other than that the mobo runs fine, I haven't played with it too much. I am happy with it, though it was a pain to find one before Christmas. Hope that helps
just making sure so the fans on the bottom are intake? the top 3 are exhaust fans for the radiator the single fan is also out take what about the 3 fans next to the motherboard on the right intake or outtake?
Many will make this DDR4 to DDR5 purchasing ERROR.
D4 Really should have been DDR4 in the product name, cause that would alert anyone instantaneously.
Agreed
if you top slot your m.2 card it cuts your Pcie express from 16x to 8x on Maximus hero, might check if it does to your too..
Asus did that with the 690 boards too. Hot trash
I love this build, I'll build my new pc soon like yours, I have some questions I hope answer me,
1: do you hear bubbling noise or something in AIO in the side mounting?
2: is I can mount 360 AIO on top instead of the side with this case or it's impossible, if yes, why you prefer to mount it on the side?
3: why do you not use NZXT fans behind radiator like your old build (when you are using 6 fans in the radiator)
♥
No, Yes and mostly because I didn't want to. 🤣 But also really you should use the same fans on both sides for ideal push pull. This ensures the fans have the same airflow capabilities
@@TheProvokedPrawn Thank you for your fast reply, so the reason of why you don't use double side fans because you find that nzxt with Lian Li fans together not give the best airflow performance
Hey love the video, can I get a link to the Y splitter used to connect everything to the AIO?
Not that exact one, but here's a link to another one I've used amzn.to/3tzw9CG
Ever thought about putting the AIO on the top set to exhaust and just have fans on the side? What advantage do you see having it on the side. Nice build, I’m about to start one myself with the same case!
I've actually tried both formats - top and side and found little difference in the performance.
@@TheProvokedPrawn was it ultimately an aesthetic choice then? or was it simply easier to mount it there?
i'll be doing a similar build for my girlfriend soon so i'm curious.
@@thomaslayman9487 put your rad up top dude, youre blowing hot air into the case the way he did it...rad up top as exhaust, 3 fans on side as intake, 3fans on bottom as intake, back single fan as exhaust
If you have midrange GPU then its way easier with AIO on top but with high end GPU this is the best setup - also vertical mount for GPU. The thing is that high end GPU's generate a lot of heat and with the AIO on top the CPU temp also goes up. At the same time CPU's generate way less heat. Now one might ask "but you blow warm air into the case". Well yes and no. First of all the air from the CPU AIO aint that hot. Secondly the warm CPU air gets pretty much blown out of the case bacause of the bottom fans and doesn't reach other components. I have the same Lian Li case with exactly the same fan setup. I have tried different fan and AIO setups and also checked the air movement with the smoke machine.
@Aur0n Agreed! Also, to back up your point, the absence of an AIO up top allows for even higher fan velocity pulling all that bottom air up and out as there's no rad interference.
Also, it's much easier fitting a Push - Pull (should you go this way) on the side as opposed to the top (even in my XL Case.) and looks less cluttered.
How did you get the white rubber pads on the original SL fans? Are the pads from the SL-Infinity fans the same shape and size?
Wait nvm, further on in the video you mentioned they are V2s.
Thanks a lot for your great content!
I do have a question though for the NZXT Z73.
I'm currently building my new pc in head and want to go with the following all white:
MSI 790 Edge Wifi
Msi 4090 Suprim
I9-13900
NZXT Z73 Kraken
64gb ddr5 6000mhz (to fill the 4 slots :D)
10x lian li uni sl infinity
Strimer
1000w Pure Power 11 FM beQuiet PSU
In an O11 Dyn Evo
For this i have two questions:
1. Are 1000w "enough" for this build, or would rather go with 1300w?
2. Is the Z73 Kraken enough to cool the 13900? For this i've read multiple opinions ranging from "easy going, just dont bench 24/7" to "no way, no AiO can cool this thing even if you're just gaming". Id use the pc for gaming (currently 2k, then 4k), streaming with OBS and Photoshop / Lightroom.
Thanks a lot for your help!
For question 1 use this outervision.com/power-supply-calculator
For 2, people do talk a load of old nonsense don't they? I'm using the 13900K as you can see and it runs really well with the Kraken. It's nice and cool frankly. Usually around 30 degrees C or lower idling (i.e. browsing the web or whatever) and 50-60 degrees while gaming or video editing. Obviously I edit a lot of content, benchmark, render, game and more. Not hot. Just fine. Naturally this will vary depending on overclocking and such but it's cool here in this setup.
@@TheProvokedPrawn Thanks a lot for your answer, really appreciate your time!
Yes they do, that's why i needed to ask, as you're running exactly this combo!
Dont think i'll overclock, as i don't want to compete in any benchmark score, just my three mentioned use cases, escpially the streaming part with obs is currently lagging out my system. As soon as i open OBS, cpu jumps to 80-100% and system is super slow. Also of course, i want to be as future proof as possible without the need of a custom watercooling system.
@@headsh0t_ttv886 interesting. Are you using the CPU for encoding rather than Nvenc?
@@TheProvokedPrawn Im using NVENC. Currently running a i7-8700k and an rtx2080.
with only having 20 pice lanes on that cpu, how does having all those NVMe drives affect performance of the graphics card?
I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to get MOBO control on lian LI fans for a hot second and didn't even think to use the splitter cable. Genius.
For your fan wire stretch issue to reach the controller, would you be able to mount the radiator to the top and then daisy chain bottom&side intake?
Might be easier :)
I appreciate you giving everyone an opportunity to learn from the little mistakes. Content creators like you give the platform life. Cheers 💖
@@DTkz_ thanks. I get happy feelings from helping others. 👍
I have the exact same case and same motherboard but for some reason I can't for the life of me get the motherboard tobe aligned with the screw holes. The back plate of the motherboard (that has the USBs and stuff) seems like it should go in more but doesn't. What am I doing wrong?
Will this case let you put 3 140 fans on the bottom and top?
Isn't the top m.2 slot going to lower your GPU to 8x? 😅
Between this build and your corsair 5000D build which is your favorite or the one you prefer more? im looking into building in the 5000D but im not entirely sure if i should
I prefer Lian Li cases but the 5000D is superb as well. Given a choice I'd go for this or the Air Mini personally.
Thank you 🙏🏽
I have this case. I love it… however when built my system I used the Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Master. And the front panel header doesn’t match with the pins on the mobo. The header fits fine but wiring doesn’t match what the corresponding pins are supposed to do. Any advice?
Can you add the link of the LGA 1700 bracket?
Does the motherboard have enough power phases for an overclocked 13900K without any problems?
Hey guy, I have a question I have the same case but I have a problem, hoping u can help me out. The front glass of this case snaps in where u are placing the glass back on and the black 4 clips that hold that glass front 2 of them broke on me so I'm afraid to put my glass back on. Do u know how can i go about replacing those clips because 2 of mine broke. I would really appreciate any information u can offer.
just wondering if you have a video showing how to properly connect that 4th fan ( back exhaust ) to the top 3 and to the control box?
shoulda finished the video first my bad
Tell me please the name of splitter on 22:10. Should I connect usb pin and 3 pin both?
hi, could you please explain which RAM you used and how you enabled its RGB effects? its not possible to synchronize the RAM rgb with the lian li fan rgb, is it? thanks in advance for your reply : )
Just put these fans on this aio and plugged it in the same way and told the bios to ignore cpu fan speeds. However, in device manager I have unknown pci devices, raid controller, and SM bus controller … is this something to do with my motherboard?
Got a bit confused how you connected the LL strimmers to the LL controller that controls the fan so that it can all be controlled by L-Connect3. Do you need any extra cables for that? I'm currently stuck there
ill genuinely pay you to make me this
Thank you but no
I cannot screw in the screw + washers in the radiator. Do you think it would do if i don't add the washers?
hi, is it possible to put Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420 in this case, ? the depth of the hull is 465 mm, and the Arctic system is 459 mm.
What so different between lian li fan compare to other cheap fans?
I am building new set, do You have any vid on replacing nzxts fans on AIO for lianli ones?
ruclips.net/video/v5kDVZmePYQ/видео.html
does the case have ports that utilize a usb 3.2 gen 2 header?
hey you know that you can remove the bracket where you put the AIO RL? only push the button
That's one of the mistakes. You win a cookie.
on 3:04 do you have to remove the thing when putting the intel? Just curious because i was going to make my own PC on Few months and using the Lian Li O11 and some other parts as well.
The thing?
no, it will just jump off by itself :)
Temperatures under load?
Where did you end up putting the controller that connects to the bottom 3 fans? The cord is pretty short/tight as you say.
Apparently they supply longer cables as standard now
anybody know how to control the rgb strip in the front through the Lian Li software. I Can control the fans but their is no section in the software through it. It's receiving power and the rgb cable is plugged directly in the controller and when i put it on the 8th mode which should let me control it through that it doesn't do anything. It's driving me crazy.
can you do this in lian li 011 mini? if so, what configuration? does the kraken fit in lian li mini? thanks
How do I get the single fan to connect to Lian li hub rgb, I have the power to the z73 hub but the other connection looks just like a mother board rgb which does not fit the hub?
Hi i don't understand one thing... I have a liquid dissipator NZXT Kraken 360 rgb and i want to set up Lian Li fans... How i can set up it to make a dissipator display work ? I have to use a NZXT controller to connect the connectors of the dissipator and use the controller Lian Li to connect the fans? Because in the video i noticed you used two controller Lian Li, right? You can explane me how i can do it right?
I have two controller Lian Li and one ZXT.

Would the 13900k work with the asus rog strix z690-a?
