What would be the practical difference between the two? It runs cooler?if you can stomach a 5in wider case theres a mini ver of the o11
LIAN LI O11D MINI V2 Flow | Compact ATX Mid-Tower Airflow Computer Case | Panoramic View | High-Performance Airflow | Includes 5 x 120mm Reverse Blade Fans | Cable Management | Black (O11DMIV2FX)
it's the same price w/ lian li quality and all the modern amenities of pc case 2025
it benchmarks really well
I dont know much about building my own computers. I've done it before, but it was a disaster in fall 2024. I built a 7800 xt / 7600x build in a mid-sized msi tower. I spent 12 hours working on it over 3 days and just decided to abandon it and get a legion go instead. However, if this case is better and the same size, I'm down. I appreciate the advice.
well all the more better than, since the o11 mini has the traditional architecture of a pc case, you can easily follow along w/ any guide like this one i guess

Based on my research, I don't think that's true. But regardless, this PC will have a 6700 XT. I'm sure that's more than sufficient.

and you can read the manual and follow a guide and ask this type of question
and everyone would be able to help you out and you'd even understand what the heck standoff is.
but it is not the same size, it is wider

This is normally on sale for like $350, though. It never dips below that, really.
Yeah, but it's over $120 in savings going with the 7800X3D right now. So if he's trying to save money or able to put it towards a better GPU, I'd go with the 7800X3D.
Eh, not all ITX systems have to be limited. This is my simrig ITX system (Lian Li A-3 case, 7800X3D with a 280 AIO, 4090).well i'm sure you realize your expandability is nil and you won't turboboost to higher sustained speeds/oc b/c your heatsink is limiting you
if i were to work w/ that, i'd suggest you get a aio, the case you chose can accept a 280
if youre going for budget, idcooling is no frills
for 35$ more

recommended. Albeit, I am appreciative of the rec, it's just massive.
well now youre going into like regular mid size casesAlright boys.
How's this as a second attempt? Tbh, I'd rather go with a small form factor case but I'm concerned that heat/air flow issues and then premium upgrade cost for SFX/ITX components. Likewise, if I ever upgrade to a Nvidia 6080 (when the time comes) or a AMD 9800x3D, not sure if heating would again be an issue. The Meshroom s v2 looks awesome, but Amazon says its frequently returned. I think the NZXT H5 Flow looks more aesthetic than the fish tank

To recap:
For: Battlefield 6 + Helldivers 2
I'm comfortable with upscaling.

Thanks! So the Lian Li Lancool 207 would work based on these? Amazon.comwell now youre going into like regular mid size cases
you might as well get a more modern case if youre going for a mid size
what i mean by modern, is the h5 flow is like from covid era
here's a recent benchmark of modern cases
the h5 flow would bench closer to a hyte y60
(from this older benchmark)
i mean you want a cooler case, youre doing air cooled 9070
i've recommended the top 5 cases to a few ppl, i even have the 217 myself and i'm very happy w/ it (i also have an older h5 case and don't care for it)
oh yea it'd work fine, i believe

and

got a 216 and theyre happy w/ it, both should be around the same price
