Do note that for the best airflow design, the psu should be shifted to the front and with two fans below gpu. This means you need a standard size small psu preferably with thin cables due to limited cable management space. My 1000w psu is 200mm so would not work with this case when shifted to front. For cpu cooling this matches the fractal torrent. Great case but make sure you have the right size psu and some extra fans to install below gpu. I ended up getting antec flux pro due to this reason but antec flux wood non pro is a cheaper alternative.

Great case, great price!

RGB works fine without an RGB controller but i ended up purchasing it after having the case for a while. It's a small convenience and it's easiest just to buy it upfront so you don't have to rewire everything later. https://www.amazon.com/Lian-Li-La...B0BNGMFN9R

This 216RGB is available for $99 on amazon and BH Photo (as of this morning). If you're preferring ARGB fans, it's worth the +$25 to have to two Lian Li ARGB fans in the front right out of the box. Up to you, however, what you put value in. Both are solid deals at their current price points.

For the down-voters on this case: Do your homework. Plenty of reputable reviewers with a broad range of cases tested show this case design to still sit in the top tier of its peers and even without "for best airflow" configurations needed (i.e. default config).

The primary choice to make for the majority of users is which set of mounts to use for the motherboard on the case. One set is made for additional space allowance at the top for certain cooling fan/cooler choices, the other set is made for not-that. If you're only interested in using the two front fans and a rear fan, pick the set that puts the motherboard higher up in the case so the CPU cooler is squarely aligned with the rear exhaust fan. That's a small degree difference, worth doing if you don't need the extra space at the top for another cooling solution.

This is a really good case. Period. It's an outstanding case at its price point. https://lian-li.com/product/lancool-216/

It appears to be the 216X, not the 216RX with rgb fans.

Too bad this one you have to mount the PSU at the back side.

One of the best cases for airflow...my 7900x plays at 70-78 degrees and 7900xtx gpu and hot spot manages between 60-85 degrees.

I set this up a month ago. The default is the water-cooling config actually. Air cooling config is the one that shifts the motherboard up, but you still need to move the rear exhaust fan up to in order to align with the cooler. Also you need to be on air cooling config to fit 2 x 140mm fans at the bottom.

Cool (no pun intended). Thanks for cleaning up/clarifying the 'default' vs. preferred alignment. Rock solid case in this price range with above-its-weight features, overall.
