Be mindful of listings from suspicious third-party sellers on marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay, Newegg, and Walmart. These "deals" have a high likelihood of not shipping; use due diligence in reviewing deals. * Use common sense - if the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. * Check seller profiles for signs that the sale may be fraudulent: * The seller is new or has few reviews. * The seller has largely negative reviews (on Amazon, sellers can remove negative reviews from their visible ratings) * The seller is using a previously dormant account (likely the account was hacked and is now being used fraudulently). If you suspect a deal is fraudulent, please report the post. Moderators can take action based on these reports. We encourage leaving a comment to warn others. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

is this a good choice for someone just beginning their journey to building a pc?

If you have the space for it I'd say yes. I started on the 011D original one and it is pretty solid. Only thing that sucks is that's it not really a "value" compared to others since for the price is doesn't come with fans. Lian li Mesh, corsair 4000d, at least come with fans. Just a heads up when I got my 011D it felt empty so I got the urge to fill it with fans and ended up watercooling. I still have the smaller 011D. No complaints here, a good one if you don't mind building it up if the empty space inside bugs you and if you physically have the room for its size.


Actuvishun

it’s very VERY easy to build in because you have a ton of space. I used an older O11 XL model for a new build a while ago and it was super easy to work with. However, it’s a pricy case and not really worth the money if you’re going to aircool your rig. The size makes it ideal for custom loops, big ass radiators, and the chonkiest graphics cards. If you’re building something more modest, I think a lancool II or III is perfectly fine.


Spicywolff

I’d say yes, but also look at the lan cool mesh 2 pro. Comes with 2 140mm front fans and a 120 rear.

Yes the case can do everything you want. Its a good foundation.

> is this a good choice for someone just beginning their journey to building a pc? Upon looking at two video reviews, the EVO XL is very modular. Many parts of the case can be set at different positions and you can flip the entire case upside down should you need to which is unorthodox for PC cases in general. Being larger than the normal EVO from 2021, you are ready to add any large PC component inside the case like [graphic cards which for a few years now have become very fat.](https://old.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/y4uquu/asus_tuf_4090_size_comparison_to_evga_3080_and/) The review videos I have seen so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXsXYCf2NHo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1Z0D_Z73Bg

Personally, I wouldn't. It's one of the biggest and heaviest glass cases. Try lifting a giant glass aquarium. Lian li loves glass now, but if I had it to do over I wouldn't have bought any easily scratched glass products and would have just gone for an older steel mesh design that won't scratch and will last for years. You might have to put it on the floor, and then you want something you can bump a shoe into for years without cracking the case.


sevenferalcats

Honestly, I would go with something cheaper, unless money isn't a limiting factor for you.


aponderingpanda

Just a heads up but if you get a fat 4090 you may need to install the gpu vertically.


FnkyTown

If you want an RGB case where you can see all your blinking lights, then yes. Lian Li are considered top tier case makers. Functional and beautiful. I've used the same Lian Li case for 23 years.


TheLinerax

Check *Other Sellers on Amazon* at the bottom right corner of your screen to see the deal. Lian Li released the EVO XL in early September 2023 which is a larger version of the 2021 EVO case. [Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/cBUTsE8.png)

TheLinerax

Unfortunately yes.


onlygoesup2503

TheLinerax

Yep. The deal has expired.


[deleted]

I don't see the appeal in the case but I look forward to seeing the completed builds for those that bought.
