How To build a Gamer PC | BEST Guide for Beginners 2023 | Lian Li Lancool 216 

Awesome! It’s such a great case! Top end performance for a nice price, grats ok the buy!

This s t p_d case doesn't have power status led and HDD activity led. What a shame! But front panel connector wire has holes for led. Did they forget to add led lights? or did they not provide on purpose to make us angry? Even after paying $130 we don't get what we need. Power and HDD led lights are one of the most important things in a PC case. What's wrong with these manufacturers? Why mankind is evolving backwards? Humans have lost their minds by removing status indicator lights from PC case and removing 3.5mm headphone jack from phones. Governments should ban PC cases without power and hdd status indicators.

Nice man! Glad to be able to help and nice build!

As long as they are the correct size of course!

Yes you’re correct to both statements! Tbh the difference isn’t too much, you’re fine either way.

@@Mdntech3000 Okay - so I'm going to install it the same way if it doesn't make any difference :) thank you so much for this impressive instruction videos!

I tried! Glad to be able help even if it was just a tiny bit haha. Good luck with your build!

I talk about wiring specifically, what question do you have?

Thank you!! 🙏

Will do next time thanks!

If you don’t plan on overclocking at all the second connection is not needed. Although I’d recommend plugging it in regardless if you plan on oc’ in the future!

@@Mdntech3000 thx - then I'll plug it in - and the 2. question :) ?

It shouldn’t matter, as long as it’s getting power one way or another.

@@Mdntech3000 I nearly finished my work - just having one last question: I'm getting the 4070 RTX Gaming X Trio in this system. Since the GPU cables from the PSU confuses me - cause the got 2 ends (wich 6:2 each) and my card does need 12+4 pin ATX 12VHPWR connector. Do I need just one cable? or how should I connect that gpu?

You’ll use the provided 12vhpwr for the 4070, and from the psu you’ll use two 8 pin (6+2) that’ll connect to the other side of the 12vhpwr adapter

Thank you!

Absolutely does great for the 7700x. I didn’t do a full set of thermal testing but my friend who just games says he has absolutely no problems with it!

@@Mdntech3000 thanks

Thank you!

Awesome to hear that, I'm really glad you liked it. Tried to cover a bunch of little things that some people don't talk about, glad it helps!

Glad to be able to help!!

I can get the standoffs to line up with the case standofffs

Is your mobo the mini version?

Tbh I think I remember having an issue lining up all the mobo screws to the case. If you’re unable to secure 1 or 2 screws to the case standoffs it’s not the end of the world, it’ll still be secure.

@@Mdntech3000 I think I figured it out thanks. I was panicking haha.

Ok cool! Sorry wish I could be more help.

Really glad to help!!

Depends on the case, two would suffice for most builds but if you can fit three you might as well install all 3 to exhaust

Np hopefully it was a help!

Ayeeeeee

One Sata cable to the fan hub - this powers the fan hub. Then you can two cables from the fan hub to the motherboard. One 3 pin 5v (argb) header from the hub to the motherboard (your mobo hopefully has at least one argb header). Finally there is a fan header from the hub to the motherboard, thus you can connect to cpu fan or sys fan, either or is fine. These are the three connections needed.

The fan hub already has the sata cable*** just need one sata from the psu to power it, just to be clear.

Hmm. I saw only two cables in the Video! SATA is clear now! A second connects the whole Fan Hub with the Motherboard as is understand 🙈 im missing the third one in the Video :(

I might have cut too much during that part. The third will be the argb connection, which is a 3pin from the hub to the motherboard.

Ahh is it there? 9:26 - Connect to sys fan2?

Thank you!

@@Mdntech3000 I currently have 3 PCs, one having an asrock and 2 with asus motherboards. All 3 of their manuals specify "A2 and B2" when using 2 of the slots. I'm pretty certain most boards have the same layout in terms of ram channels. Unlike Pci-e, and m.2 slots, you should place them farthest from the cpu.

Yea in my experience they almost always recommend a2 and b2, and absolutely!

You can do both but normally intake at the bottom for fresh air towards the gpu, and exhaust the top fans so the hot air escapes.

@@Mdntech3000 thanks in your case with only the original case config fans your temps are good?

Nice man! Hope you enjoy the case 👍

@@Mdntech3000 the case is awesome! Just finished my build today. However I can't figure out why the RGB 160 fans are lighting up. Other than that it's an amazing case!

There’s prob a minor mistake when it comes to the connections from the hub or motherboard.

@@Mdntech3000 Most likely. I'll have to dig into it. But only later cuz these high frames are to good to pass up!😂

Haha awesome man enjoy it as long as it doesn’t bother you. If you end up troubleshooting in the future just drop a comment I’ll try my best to help.

In my main rig? In this video I don’t have an extra screen. I assume you mean in the thumbnail picture?

@@Mdntech3000 o lol yes the main rig.

I might do a video on it then. It’s an elecrow raspberry pi 5 monitor screen from Amazon. It’s connected to the Gpu using an hdmi cable and it’s mounted in my case using stand-off screws that I also bought from Amazon. Screws come with the monitor but other screws I got work better. www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07FDYXPT7?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title www.amazon.com/your-orders/pop/ref=ppx_yo_mob_b_pop?_encoding=UTF8&gen=canonical&lineItemId=okooqujrojkoqny&orderId=111-4129096-8651434&packageId=1&returnSummaryId=&returnUnitIndices=&returnUnitMappingId=&shipmentId=M4YLkS2R9

If you want I can try to do a quick video on installation.

@@Mdntech3000 OIC so basically another smaller monitor inside the case kinda deal?

I feel your frustration…rough out here in the tech world

Yea I can, it’ll def be a long video though. There are other resources out there that talk about how to install windows and the like though for now, sorry!

@@Mdntech3000 do you remember if u had to install wifi drivers for the motherboard? Ive seen others with this board who have a hard time getting windows install as there is no internet access out of the box.

@jcrispy396 for this build I don’t remember if I needed drivers to initially connect over wifi…I honestly don’t remember

okay thanks no prob@@Mdntech3000

I don’t have the case in my possession anymore but it can be done. I know it’s a TIGHT fit, the cables have to get jammed behind the fan mount I believe. There should be discussions online or hopefully even a video of someone doing it! Sorry I can’t

@@Mdntech3000 thanks. I will just keep as it is.

Sorry I couldn’t help more 🥲

I have a 1000 but depending on the 40 series card you don’t need that much.
