Lian Li today unveiled the PC-O11 Dynamic EVO line of premium mid-tower cases. These cases retain the characteristic vertically-partitioned design of the original PC-O11 Dynamic, but with a twist—the case is now "reversible." You can orient the case such that its motherboard tray faces the left or with a little DIY modifications, such as swapping around its body panels, you can reorient it to point right (BTX style). This happens without having to turn the case turtle, and ends up looking neat, with its top and bottom panels not looking out of place. A video embedded below shows you how this works.

The PC-O11 Dynamic EVO comes in three trims—"Modern Black," "Pure White," and "Harbor Grey." The first one is a sober matte trim of black with gloss added by the tempered glass panels, and a brushed aluminium strip running across the front. "Pure White" is white all around, paired with clear glass panels. "Harbor Grey" is a two-tone scheme, with solid grey taking up the panels along the smaller compartment. The case offers a plethora of ventilation options, which include three 360 mm radiator mounts (top, bottom, and inter-compartment); and a 120 mm rear exhaust.
 
Storage options with the Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic EVO include a total of eleven 2.5-inch drive mounts. These include four along the bottom panel, and seven behind the motherboard tray, along the partition. The partition also features a "spinal" column that helps you conceal key cables, such as the 24-pin ATX, EPS, and PCIe power cables. The only lighting included with the case is an addressable-RGB light strip that runs vertically along the partition as viewed from the front panel. The smaller compartment is designed such, that a dual-PSU setup can be created. The motherboard tray has innovations such as the ability to reorient the vertical add-on card slots to create more airflow between the bottom-mounted fans and a graphics card oriented vertically, using a separately purchased "upright GPU kit." The case measures (D) 465 mm × (W) 285 mm × (H) 459 mm.
 
The base price of the case is $150, the vertical GPU kit, including the riser cable costs $80; the Upright GPU Kit (including riser) costs $80; the additional I/O kit, which adds more USB connectivity to the front-panel, costs $19; the front mesh kit that replaces the front glass panel with an airy mesh, costs $20; while the top-I/O plate costs $13.
 
I really like the white version of this case.

    The white case is attractive.  What I don't like is the case ports on the bottom since my cases are never on my work surface.  If you're putting on your desk, then it is convenient.

    Not sure why they moved IO to the bottom of the case... really hope that mesh front panel is compatible with the original O11D...

    I like the hands-on Gamers Nexus review of it a lot more. More in depth, than techpower up. Looking at their so called news review... well just noticed they put up the wall of pages and text review... Still prefer Gamers Nexus's review hands down.


    Love all the ideas, but the 170 something price tag, and pretty much DLC accessories is going to hurt if you really want to customize it. Yet it is an engineering improved design all around, giving stuff to people that who do not already have the older Dynamic 011 that want more options to do anything. That is where these case's shine, paying extra for a premium though.

    I was all excited about reverse mode until I watched the three minute video on how to do it.   Basically, rebuild the entire case.
