Worthy air cooled build!
Winning! This is a well thought out case, easy to build in, stock fans are very quiet at idle, and for my air focused build, on par with the same build in a Fractal Torrent XL as far as thermals go (actually better by a few degrees). Gamers Nexus is 100% spot on as far as thermals go.The good: Easy to build in. Descent cable management. Front, sides, window are all easy to open/access and secure with thumb screws (except front which is snap fit). Included PWM 160mm front fans are quiet and move air well thru the case, same with the rear 140 PWM. Fans don't feel cheap. Completely stock config this case is worthy. No real need to add any additional fans, unless you want to add a lower fan (front position) for your GPU or try other configs. I went with the default fan config as it's just working, well, really well. 32deg c at idle.Case looks nicer then I expected. It's a dark case, no power LED. It has a reset switch which is nice. Combo headphone/mic jack feels solid, no issues with either headphones or headset functionality or insert (unlike the Torrent). Window looks good and feels solid, although I generally avoid presentation cases in general, so this is a big departure for me. I like the look. I added a small ARGB light set, as the case has no other LEDs to tell if it's on (it's that quiet). Looks nice as a presentation case.The Meh: The MB "air cooling mode" config standoffs leave an awkward GPU placement. Recommend using the standard position. Again Gamers Nexus spot on on this. The PSU shroud has removable plates to add fans, install SSDs, etc. The screw holes are small, so removing them is required to add fans, and they must be installed on top, not below the shroud. I am sure one could add some long screws and bolts, but the kit does not include hardware to do this, at least with standard size fan screw patterns. Lian Li fans may get you around this, but I am a dedicated Noctua guy. No biggie. I may look more into a below shroud fan position mod and update the review. The anti-sag bracket uses MB standoffs to support the bracket fyi. Note that the standard 216 case does NOT have a fan hub, but is the same price, yet has PWM front 160mm fans instead of the ARGB fans on the RGB version. Note that the rear GPU 120mm fan cage is kinda weird, sticks out, and feels like an afterthought. Best guess is it is included for folks who do not like the PSU shroud top mounted fan look. Who knows.Overall I like the case. The thermals are excellent with my build, better or on par with the Torrent XL at a much smaller footprint, price, and noticeably quieter/near silent at idle. Was a breeze to build in, plenty of space to navigate. Good manual available online and included screw accessory box is a nice perk. Looks great and feels premium. Unsure about fan compatibility if the front 160mm fans need replacement, as Lian Li is kinda known for proprietary fans, but once you go over 140mm, this is an issue with most manufacturers. Would build in a 216 again for sure. Footprint, thermals, looks, and ease of install is spot on. Hats off to Lian Li for this model.

WORTH THE HYPE!
Certainly! Here's a polished and detailed Amazon product review based on your input:Title: Incredible Thermal Performance and Perfect Design — My New Favorite Case!Review:I recently upgraded my PC from a Vetroo Mesh 7C to the 207 from Lian Li, after watching countless YouTube videos the hype is real !!And I couldn’t be happier with the decision. After doing some research, I learned that the thermal performance of the Lian Li case far exceeds my previous setup, and I can definitely confirm that it lives up to the hype.I had initially chosen the Vetroo Mesh 7C, thinking it was compact, but I didn't realize just how big it was until I finished building my system back in October last year. Since then, I've noticed my room has been exponentially hotter than usual, and my thermals have been running quite high — despite having a good cooling setup with an Arctic 360mm cooler, a 3070 EVGA with a triple fan below it, and a 7800X3D that is not overclocked.Switching to the Lian Li case was a game changer. The build process was seamless because of how well-designed and intuitive the case is. The all-in-one power and reset switch setup at the bottom of the motherboard is absolutely remarkable — no more fiddling with tiny, delicate pins that can easily get misplaced or damaged. Everything fits perfectly, and the entire rear of the case is highly ventilated, which has drastically improved my system’s thermals. My temperatures now run insanely cool, even under load.The front fans are the visually stunning Infiniti fans, which look fantastic even when covered, adding a sleek, modern aesthetic to the case. The overall look is very clean and premium, making it a showpiece for anyone who wants a high-end, stylish build.If I were to build another high-end PC, I would definitely choose the Lian Li 207 again — it’s that good. I can confidently say I will be using this case for the next 10 years. Great job from Lian Li! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-tier case with exceptional thermal performance, stunning design, and thoughtful features. A++

Cool, quiet case
This case has been perfect. Airflow is great on this case using stock fans, and it has room to add a few more. The quick detach side panels are convenient and allow easy access to the case for changing parts or dusting. It uses an extension for the power supply power input that allows for extra clearance around the motherboard making it very easy to access cables. It has built-in power supply cable routing as well as a GPU anti-sag bracket that works really well. Highly recommended!

Great case for the money
One of the few cases i've built in that was very easy to cable manage. Bought this because of the dedicated GPU fan location. I had noticed my aging 7900xt was getting too hot in the old case so I bought this to give it a try and the temps have dropped by at least 10 degrees with the noctua fans i'm using. The pre installed front and rear fans a very quiet and move a decent amount of air around. The case is very sturdy when moving around and looks great if your not a fan of those fish tank cases. The included screw case was a nice touch. I'll consider Lian Li for my next project.
