Lian-Li Strimer review
RGB for your motherboard ATX cable

Remember that Lian-Li recently released its Strimer, that 24 Pin ATX cable extender which has been embedded with a full addressable RGB lighting module, well we received one for a quick peek. The Lian Li Strimer Cable LED can be customized via your motherboard software via an addressable header pin. Motherboards with addressable RGB capable connection can easily control, customize and configure their Strimer lighting. Please watch the video below first where I cycle through the animations with the help of the included controller.

However also included is a controller PCB, so the mandatory RGB link from your motherboard is not a requirement, this unit can operate all by itself. The Strimer has 10 built-in lighting options that can be selected with the built-in controls so even those without new motherboards can experience the brilliant allure of Lian Li’s Strimer RGB cable.

The Strimer is constructed in two layers, the bottom layer is a standard 24 pin power extension cable, that works with virtually any motherboard while the top layer consists of twelve individually controllable RGB lighting cables. The bottom layer is braided and has a soft white color which compliments the top layer when illuminated. And once activated, it does look rather spectacular.

Lian Li SP850 (850W PSU) review
We’re putting the new Lian Li SP850 power supply on our test bench today. The company is mainly known for making chassis, like the O11 series (with ones like the Dynamic, Mini, or the recently checked Evo), the AIO coolers named Gallahad, RGB PSU extension cables (Strimer, which already has the 2nd version), and fans from the Unifan series. They even made a gamer’s desk DK05-F. It is another/higher-wattage version of the SP power supply series. We already checked the SP750, which we checked almost a year ago, and it earned an “Approved” award.

Lian Li O11 Dynamic Evo chassis review
This time, we’re checking out the Lian Li O11 DYNAMIC EVO, a successor of the O11 Dynamic chassis, which we reviewed four years ago. The Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO appears to have changed very little from the original. You can now install a 280mm radiator in the side location, and there are mounts for eleven (but nine are provided in the bundle) storage drives rather than six. It was showcased in February 2021 and June 2021 and was introduced to the market in December 2021. In the meantime, we also got to check the Mini version (and Air Mini has also been introduced, the XL is also worth mentioning). But getting back to the Dynamic Evo – it’s a (rather extensive) ATX mid-tower chassis with around 61 l of volume. The looks are definitely something familiar but a bit refined. Again, like in the predecessor – we won’t find fans here.

Lian Li SP750 (750W PSU) review
We’re putting the new Lian Li SP750 power supply on our test bench today. The company is rather known for making the chassis, like the 011 series (with ones like the Dynamic or Mini) or the cooling like AIO named Gallahad. They even make a gamer’s desk DK05-F. Ok, but let’s get back to the reviewed product. The PSU (that makes the Lian Li return into the PSU business) has been based on the platform from Helly Technology (a less known OEM producer), so it looked like a bit risky move. How it’ll turn out in the final – we’ll see later.

Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini chassis review
This time, we’re checking out the Lian Li O11D Mini, a smaller version of the well-known O11D series. We reviewed the regular version over 2.5 years ago, and it earned our “Recommended” award. This time, it’s a smaller case, but still a very spacious one. It looks like an ITX/mATX chassis, but can house up to ATX-size motherboard
