Lian Li DAN A3-mATX Wood Edition, Micro Tower Case

The Lian Li DAN A3-mATX Wood Edition case is a compact mATX micro tower case, aimed at more premium but tight builds where space is limited, but hardware is not. It supports graphics cards up to 414 mm and air coolers up to 165 mm, giving you freedom for a serious gaming or workstation build in a small volume. The combination of black color and wood detail gives it a more atypical, “alive” look compared to standard black cases. No fans or power supply are included, so you have full control over exactly how you build your airflow and power configuration.

What you get – a small case with a flexible internal layout and many cooling options. You have options for up to 3 x 120 mm fans on top, 3 x 120 mm on the bottom and 3 x 120 mm on the side, plus 1 x 120 mm at the rear, so you can tune the airflow for a high-end GPU without thermally throttling it. If you are on water cooling, the top panel accommodates a 280/360 mm radiator, and the side panel – 240/280/360 mm, which is rarely seen in mATX size. Inside there is space for 1 x 3.5" and 3 x 2.5" drives, enough for a combination of a large HDD for storage and several SSDs for fast work and games. On the front panel you have 2 x USB 3.0 and 1 x USB-C, so you don't have to bend down to the rear panel for every flash drive or phone.

• Case in mATX micro tower format, suitable for compact but serious builds with a smaller motherboard.
• Support for graphics cards up to 414 mm, allowing you to install long, massive GPU models without compromise.
• Maximum air cooler height of 165 mm, sufficient for more serious tower air cooling solutions.
• Rich fan options: 3 x 120 mm top, 3 x 120 mm bottom, 3 x 120 mm side and 1 x 120 mm rear for well-controlled airflow.
• Water cooling support with radiators up to 360 mm on top and side panel, ideal for AIO or custom loop in a small form factor.
• Storage configuration with 1 x 3.5" and 3 x 2.5" slots, providing a balance between data volume and fast SSDs.
• Compatibility with power supplies up to 220 mm and SFX, so you can choose between a classic longer PSU or a compact SFX depending on the build.
• Front panel with 2 x USB 3.0 and 1 x USB-C, which facilitates modern peripherals and fast data transfer.
• No included fans and no power supply unit, so you choose the exact components yourself according to budget and the noise level you are aiming for.

Who it is suitable for – if you want a compact mATX machine for gaming or productivity, with the possibility for a powerful GPU and serious cooling (air or water), this case is a very logical choice. It is also suitable if you prefer a cleaner, simpler design with a wood accent, instead of an aggressive “gamer” look. It is not the best option if you are looking for an ultra-cheap build with included fans and PSU from the case.

The combination of compact dimensions, support for long graphics cards, large radiators and convenient I/O makes the Lian Li DAN A3-mATX Wood Edition a good candidate for a tight, quiet and powerful build, where the form does not limit the serious content.
