Question Lian Li Lancool 216 or the ANTEC NX416L for better cooling?

[Avanis]

Hello, I'm between two options here, I like the looks of both cases but I have seen many more reviews for the Lancool 216 and how good of a case it is, but barely any reviews for the Antec one, it's also cheaper than the Lancool.

I'm not sure which one to choose for better cooling, I will use a 7600x and a 7800xt with an AG400 GAMMAXX CPU cooler.

I'd pick the Antec case. If you were planning on upgrading to something more beefy for your processor and in turn look at a beefier air cooler, then go with the Lian-Li.

In all honesty, if you're not going to populate the rest of the slots on your motherboard, might as well look at an matx chassis.

but barely any reviews for the Antec one

Really?

How many do you need more? 🤔

Since choosing a PC case is personal choice, pick the one you like the most.
(Personally, i wouldn't pick either of the two.)

Thank you, if I ever upgrade anytime soon, it would be my CPU and CPU cooler indeed so I might as well just go for the Lian Li like you suggested, thanks again.

Thanks for the reviews I will check them out. I don't have a lot of options since I'm on a budget but feel free to suggest if something is better but within the same price range.

You didn't say your location (currency) nor your budget, so, i have no idea what your budget is and what is available in your area.

But if you're happy with the cases you have available, pick the one you like the most. Since you have to watch that PC case every day and not any of us.

I, personally, like full-tower (and super-tower) ATX cases. Have some of them in use already as well, like my Corsair 760T V2 Black or missus'es Corsair 750D AF-edition. Besides those, i also like Phanteks Enthoo Pro series and Be Quiet Dark Base Pro 900-series is also interesting.
Of course, full-tower PC cases cost a lot. Easy 150 bucks. More like $200+. And super-tower ATX cases cost even more.

Both cases are similar, and very good for air cooling.
two 160mm front intakes will be quiet and provide all the airflow that you might want.
The height available can handle most any top air cooler.
165mm available on the antec, and 181mm on the lian li.
