Had to retire my Corsair Air 540 case after almost 6 years of service. Vibration were really causing the front panel to rattle and really irritate me. I am assuming the vibrations came from the floor mounted hard drives.

I was set on a Fractal Design Meshify S2 until I went to Micro Center and saw how big it was, and also had a chance to see the Lian Li O-11 Dynamic as well as the XL. While the XL would have been nice, it is a bit big, so looked at the Dynamic and was sold. Coming from the Air 540, the O-11 did the dual chamber idea a lot better in my opinion, including proper hard drive mounting. The material and overall build quality was definitely better than the Fractal cases I saw.

Transplanted my Air 540 build into the O-11 Dynamic. Was out of black tubing and Micro Center only had white in my size. The 240 rads are carryover from the Air 540. Planning a new Zen 3/Ampere or RDNA2 build for next year and will also look at getting dual 360 rads then. Also thinking of trying my hand at hardline in the new build.

Until then, here it is:

Edit: -snip- Will snap better pics later today.

Edit2: here we go (managed to also commandeer another 16GB kit of RAM which just happens to color coordinate with the white tubing heh.

Thoughts about this from anyone before I make a decision?

Personally I'd have side and bottom intake with top and rear exhaust. Not sure why you'd split intake and exhaust like how you have it proposed.

Can we all just admit defeat and change the thread title to the Lian Li O11 Owners club?

What can I say, I'm a sucker for dual chamber cases.

Yeah seriously, long time no see.

What is the radiator mounted on top? Trying to figure out if I could do a push/pull setup if I upgraded my O11-D to an XL in the future with my HWLabs 360GTX. I had enough room to do just push with it mounted on top of my O11-D
