LIAN LI Shows Four new Prototype products
LIAN LI unveils soon-to-be-launched products, with new editions of the O11D MINI and UNI FANS, as well as exclusive looks at four prototypes.
Q58
The Q58, a 14.3L SFF case, is equipped with split hinged panels made of tempered glass and aluminum mesh, and a dual-tone front solid aluminum panel. With support for MINI-ITX, 320mm long GPUs, and up to 280mm radiators, the Q58 is capable of supporting a variety of configurations with SFX PSUs or ATX PSUs due to an adjustable motherboard tray that can be moved for more clearance.
A4-H2O
A collaboration with DAN Cases from Germany, the A4-H2O is an SFF case at only 10.4L. Inspired by the original A4-SFX, the all-aluminum A4-H2O offers a refined look and sleek design. Compatible with mini-ITX motherboards and SFX or SFX-L power supplies, the A4-H2O can fit in any GPU up to 315mm in length and 2.7 slots in thickness, and any 240 AIO with CPU block clearance of 56mm. The A4-H2O’s mesh at the top, right, and left panels offer plenty of airflow for proper thermal management. In addition, the A4-H20 has lots of storage space with mounts for 2 SSDs behind the front panel.
V3000+
A redesign of the original V3000, the V3000+ is a modernized aluminum full tower case that masters water cooling, airflow, modularity, storage, and high-performance component compatibility. With support for up to three 480mm radiators plus a 360mm radiator, sixteen 120mm fans, two systems, two PSUs, and horizontal or vertical GPU up to 420mm in length, the V3000+ is the ultimate case for the performance systems. Up to 16 HDDs or 19 SSDs can be fitted in the V3000+, enough to turn this case into a powerful storage server. With a tempered glass panel on the left, meshed top panel and shroud panels, solid front and right side panels, the V3000+ also includes accents of RGB around the front panel which can be controlled by a magnet-mount remote control.
O11D EVO
Designed as an airflow optimized O11 Dynamic, the O11D EVO offers features of the O11D XL in the footprint of the O11 Dynamic. The 2 aluminum panels at the top and right side feature a redesigned mesh that acts as a dust filter while providing the system with unparalleled airflow. The aluminum strip at the front of the case is a flip panel that covers the case-control buttons, as well as an optional SDD case for two 2.5” SSDs or HDDs. In terms of compatibility, the O11D EVO supports motherboards ranging from E-ATX to MINI ITX, GPUs up to 445mm long, and PSUs up to 200mm in length. Users now have the option to place their GPU beside the motherboard, in an upright position. As for radiators, fans, and storage support, three modular brackets which can be arranged for either 280/360 radiators/fans, or 2.5”/3.5” SSDs/HDDs are included.
New Product Updates
LIAN LI also has updates of its award-winning products that will launch in the coming months. The O11D MINI adds a Snow Edition with an all-white interior and exterior, removing black accents from the previous white version. SFX power supplies will be bundled with the O11D MINI in the SP750 and SP850 editions. In addition, the second generation of the innovative interconnecting fan series, UNI FAN AL120 and AL140, and an update on L-Connect with more software options and the ability to control all LIAN LI RGB devices.

I think after over one year of waiting after buying my PCs internals, I finally found the right case to put them in and install the EK LQ unit I won from Guru3D two years ago haha

Slats are one if not the worst shape for noise (creates a super annoying high pitched whine that your fan doesn't originally have) and bad for airflow, that was my main complaint about my O11 Dynamic XL, so much that I ended up cutting every panel with the slats (rear,under,right side are ok to cut, not the top one)
result : almost silent PC with 10 fans @800-900rpm, better airflow and since bottom-right panels have dust filters (1+2) zero dust problems it's actually easier to clean as the dust filters are vacuum-able directly now that they aren't hidden between the slats
in the EVO they fixed that, by removing those awful slats, rear uses a thin hexagonal grill and the sides are well just a mesh/air filter...so pretty much what I tinkered on my case, as usual smartasses commented that I had ruined my case and didn't know what I was doing...LianLi does the same 2 years later heh
too bad they ruined the interior with front trays no one sane would use (they block the front rad/fan emplacement) and the gimmick to be able to rotate the case and use it in different directions, it's not that the idea is bad but they shouldn't have called it an O11 "evolution" it's more like a downgrade, also the switches and usb ports are idiotic.
hmmmm would be nice if the 011D EVO panels were available seperatly...and were compatible with the OG 011D, i generally like the OG panels but i had my doubt about lian li's airflow claims about them as there does appear to be large obstruction in the form of metal (and wile they claim the slats make it less of an obstruction then your typical hexagon grid....i'm not so sure, the metal's quite wide and the hole's by comparison don't seem that wide, also i notice the temps dropping when i remove the top/right panel so there's definitely room for improvement)

Hello Kakihara, any chance you could post pictures of your mod? I have the O11 Dynamic (NON-XL) and wouldn't mind silencing it a little bit.
Thanks.
