Lian-Li LANCOOL 217 Mid-Tower, Tempered Glass, Wood-White Case

Lian-Li LANCOOL 217 is a middle tower case aimed at more serious gaming and enthusiast configurations, where airflow and good organization are as important as aesthetics. It supports a wide range of motherboards – from standard ATX to Extended ATX and SSI-EEB, giving you freedom in choosing your platform. The tempered glass side panel showcases the hardware, while the white wooden accent makes the entire build look more complete and different from typical black cases. You also get 5 included fans with the case, so you have the foundation for stable airflow without additional investments.

What you get is a chassis that comfortably accommodates larger configurations with many components, without struggling with cooling and space. Support for ATX, mATX, Extended ATX, and SSI-EEB means you can plan not only a gaming build but also a workstation with a more serious motherboard. With up to 3 x 120 mm or 2 x 140 mm fans on the top panel and 3 x 120 / 140 mm in the front, you have the option to build strong intake and exhaust airflow, while the lower 3 x 120 mm slots are convenient for more powerful GPUs or additional cooling. The built-in 5 fans save you time and money on the initial build, and 2 x 3.5" + 3 x 2.5" slots are more than enough for a combination of a fast SSD for the system and large HDDs for storage. The front panel with USB 3.0, USB-C, and HD Audio gives you convenient access to modern connections directly from your desk.

• Middle tower form factor case with ATX, mATX, Extended ATX, SSI-EEB support, allowing for both standard and larger motherboards and workstations.
• Side panel made of tempered glass, so you can see the hardware and lighting inside without sacrificing durability.
• A total of 5 included fans, so you have a basic cooling system set up from the start.
• Rich fan options: top panel 3 x 120 / 2 x 140 mm, front panel 3 x 120 / 140 mm, rear panel 1 x 120 mm or 1 x 140 mm, bottom panel 3 x 120 mm for serious airflow.
• 7 expansion slots, which is enough for modern GPUs and additional cards – sound, network, or capture.
• Combination of 2 x 3.5'' and 3 x 2.5" slots, allowing flexible arrangement of HDDs for storage and SSDs for the operating system and games.
• Practical I/O at the front: 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x USB-C and 1 x HD Audio, so you don’t have to constantly reach to the back panel of the motherboard.

Who is this case suitable for? If you are building a mid-range to high-end gaming PC or workstation and want a lot of airflow, visible configuration, and enough space for a large motherboard and several drives, the LANCOOL 217 fits well. If you are aiming for a super compact system or minimal case size for a small desk, this middle tower form factor may be larger than you need.

The most sensible aspect here is the combination of support for large motherboards, good airflow with many fan slots, and 5 included fans, plus the clean design with tempered glass. You get a stable base for a serious build that looks good and breathes easily.
