Yeah, it might even be cooler, as hinted by Christopher with the regular 011 Evo Case. Pretty sure he showed a few degrees cooler with the regular Evo, with a Vertical mount.
Appreciate the build video and this extensive review. I was pretty hyped about this case and excited to order it. However, after this video and several others, Im souring on it. The part of the case above the motherboard is just...empty. So much empty space, especially when going with a dual rear fan setup. Going with a single fan helps with the empty space issue, but not much. I think an air cooler could disatract from that, but most of us aint putting an air cooler in there. Hence, we install an AIO and then we're left with cables from the AIO being exposed running up into the top space. I could tolerate that, but, again, all that open space at the top just makes the case feel empty despite all the great parts we install. I think IM going to build in the 011D RGB.
Very good review as usual. Have you considered reviewing the H6 Flow? Apparently it's a top air flow performer. I'm sure your audience would love to see that. I know I would.
Thanks for the explaining and the effort to show . I am thinking aout bying this one . 😊. But can i ask why the radiatior is upside down? don`t you get airbubbels on the top of it ?
Yup this is true, he needs to rotate the rad by 180 Edit: just remembered it doesn't matter cause there's still a tank on the top side of the rad. So as long as either end is higher than the pump it is okay.
Thank you for the review. I would appreciate an expert's take on negative vs positive flow with this case. You opted to make the side fans push, which has downsides of "positive flow" being less efficient and turbulent, seeming out of balance with 6 push vs 2 pull, and there seems to be no dust filter. However that's only theory and a side pull config may have drawn too much hot air from the GPU into the AIO radiator. Would you be willing to spare some thought and share your considerations? Will you plan to thermal test the various possibilities? (I am planning on 2x 120mm rear exhaust, 3x 140mm bottom intake, but not sure yet whether to get push or pull side fans, and thus whether to buy reverse fans or not)
I got mine with 3 bottom intakes, side mounted aio with intake pushpull config and the 2 rear fans as exhaust. The temps are like 1-2C more than the standard O11 so nothing to worry about... old glory R7 5800X3D with 4080 Founders. NZXT kraken Z73. All the fans are Lian li AL120 and the other 3 in pushpull on the aio are the pre-installed NZXT ones
@@DariusPL I am really leaning towards this now lol; it just looks so good! I also have limited space (height wise) and this comes in a good bit shorter.
Can we use uprigth gpu brackets for 40xx dynamic evo in this case? I want the gpu on side intake, bottom 3 140 intake and aio 240 on back for test. Pleeeeease!!
Also I was thinking of having rear with two exhaust 120 m and base with 3x 140 mm intake and AIO with the gigachad version as intake. Would that work for this build?
I know the cpu temp is high but intel. Especially their 14th gen chips. Are well known to run hot anyway. This case would be better suited for AMD Ryzen I reckon 🤔
Could you do three bottom intake and back two as intake and use the side aio as exhaust. Alittle bit of postive pressure but better then six intake and two exhaust??
Franchement.....comment tu as montée ton watercooling, Faut pas le monter dans ce sens, bon nombre de vidéo américaine/anglaise/française etc... sur youtube précise qu'il faut pas monter un watercooling avec les sorties vers le bas, regarde comme c'est tendu franchement....
There is no oof here, as long as cables are not stretched and in reach, this completely fine. What you mean by bottom is when you place the radiator on the bottom, then it will have problems being on horizontal state (since the hot air will literally rise to the cpu). But clearly here its in vertical state where the hot air rises away from the bulbs which is quite efficient actually, and its in lower mode so the tubes can reach. Nice
Why the Hell is AiO built in this way? Everyone knows that the pump has to be on the highest point not the lowest. This build will start to be pretty noisy after a while. Edit: I am stupid it is built in correctly. But still: If I ever plan to build a system with an AiO, I would NEVER buy a case that has no option to put it at the top of the case. It is always the best choice for an AiO. This case is bettter for Custom Lopp builds.
@@StelsAssassiN You're right. I was stupid, sorry. I watched the Video and also JayzTwoCents Video. NOw I get the science behind it correctly, SO thx for your comment. But still: If I ever plan to build a system with an AiO, I would NEVER buy a case that has no option to put it at the top of the case. It is always the best choice for an AiO. This case is bettter for Custom Lopp builds. And i still have to say that the Hardware components aren't matching good here. Why would anyone match a 14900k with an 4070? And when you do it like this a 1200W PSU is complete overkill.
@@ysoserious8526not true, it is better to have the AIO at the front as intake. Maybe unless you have it as intake at the top, I don't know what the temps would look like this scenario tho
Another great and detailed review, thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Any chance for a fan placement video for this case?
As always, a very detailed review!
Glad you liked it!
Why didn't you use the Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INFINITY REVERSE BLADE for the side and bottom?
For the rest a great review Christopher!
earned a new sub! do you think theres a major difference in the thermals compared to the o11 dynamic evo?
I wonder how this case would look with the vertical GPU mount. How much worst will the GPU temps be compared to the EVO?
Yeah, it might even be cooler, as hinted by Christopher with the regular 011 Evo Case. Pretty sure he showed a few degrees cooler with the regular Evo, with a Vertical mount.

Does the push/pull improve the cooling a lot more than just pull?

Great video. Just wondering why the aio is push pull and 6 fans? Can we just use the stsndard layout but set to intake without push pull? Thanks
My next case. Case and infinity fans are on the way.
I just found this video because I'm considering this case. But WHAT IS THAT CASE IN THE BACK??? That case looks AWESOME!
Cooler Master HAF 700 EVO
He has a review on it
HAF 700 EVO
The Hyperion gr701 was also in the back
would this fit a aero 4090? my 12pin connecter is always touching the glass and i dont want that

I got reverse fans. Why not, they look 10x better. Also seen a lot of reviews do two exhaust and 6 intake like this with good results.
Yup, 6 intake and 2 exhaust is the way to go

What a banger used for the B-Roll dammmmmm
This case needs the Lian li reverse blade fans.
why does it need those fans?
@@sun_cody7612 With all those windows. This is all about the look!
What kind of screws did you use for the aio for push and pull ?
about to do a new build and not sure if I should go with this or the Phanteks NV5, any thoughts? I am leaning towards the NV5
I have exactly the same question 😁
@@DariusPL I am really leaning towards this now lol; it just looks so good! I also have limited space (height wise) and this comes in a good bit shorter.
NV5 is cheaper, but this one looks better
@@ChristopherFlannigan after seeing all these review videos I am going with the O11 Vision; it just looks so good.

I don't have the bracket for the EVO so couldn't test it
@@ChristopherFlannigan =(
Do you think the AMD Ryzen™ 7 7800X3D and the 3080 ti would be too hot for this build?
Also I was thinking of having rear with two exhaust 120 m and base with 3x 140 mm intake and AIO with the gigachad version as intake. Would that work for this build?
I'm planning a 7800X3D build with a 6800XT so hopefully it isnt too hot@@ShabazDraee
Goodness I hate to admit I enjoyed the build montage music.
I know the cpu temp is high but intel. Especially their 14th gen chips. Are well known to run hot anyway. This case would be better suited for AMD Ryzen I reckon 🤔
I did a full AMD build with this case and have no issues running 6 intake / 1 exhaust with an AIO. GPU rarely runs above 65c
@@DissonantValues How are your cpu temps under load?
Not a fan of this version, I prefer the aio on top.
EVO perfect for you
I think so, the XL edition looks great. @@ChristopherFlannigan
Have you ever reviewed the Corsair 5000x? That would be nice.
Could you do three bottom intake and back two as intake and use the side aio as exhaust. Alittle bit of postive pressure but better then six intake and two exhaust??
Much better to cool aio with air from outside the case.
glass top, madness, its a nope from me
Each to their own

i/o at bottom oof
Hahahha that was also the first thing I thought 😅
Only flaw is it doesn't have the IO accessory that I can move the IO to the bottom left closest to me.
pump is still below the highest point in the loop. So why oof?
