Hands-on with Lian Li's Lancool 217 PC case: High airflow, wood accents, no RGB
May 2, 2025
Affordably cool
Lian Li's latest case, the Lancool 217, borrows design elements and features from its Lancool 216 and Lancool 207, while adding some tasteful wood trim to fit in with the likes of the Fractal North. It also includes five fans, with two monstrous (170mm diagonal, 30 mm thick) models up front, and dedicated GPU fans at the bottom, making for some seriously impressive airflow.
Combine that with a dual-chamber design, lots of cable routing options, and an anti-sag GPU support that doesn't feel like an afterthought, and the Lancool 217 has a good shot at making our Best PC Cases list. It also has a large PWM / ARGB hub and a fused Front Panel block that makes building in the case a lot easier. It also supports up to seven SATA storage drives. For me, the case's biggest downside is that the front-panel ports are located on the bottom; This is a pretty large case for the company to expect it to live on my desk.
