WHERE WOOD MEETS AIRFLOW

The LANCOOL 217 is thoughtfully engineered to blend natural wooden aesthetics with high-performance airflow. It features a front panel that pairs finely perforated mesh with a wooden frame to maintain an organic look while allowing for unrestricted airflow.

The black version is accented with rich walnut wood, delivering a bold and contemporary feel. The white version incorporates light birch wood, offering a sleek, minimalist aesthetic ideal for modern tech setups.

READY-TO-GO COOLING WITH 5 PRE-INSTALLED FANS

The LANCOOL 217 chassis comes equipped with high-performance fans at the front, rear, and bottom, providing powerful airflow to keep internal components running smoothly and reliably.

The front fans utilize FDB bearing for quieter operation and extended lifespan. Designed for performance, they deliver powerful airflow and can be repositioned to better target the CPU or GPU.

• Size: 170 × 170 × 30 mm
• Speed: 1550 RPM
• Airflow: 142.56 CFM
• Static Pressure: 3.34 mmH₂O
• Noise Level: 34.3 dBA

Above the PSU shroud, the bottom fans are specifically positioned to direct cool air toward the GPU, helping to effectively manage its temperature.

• Size: 120 × 120 × 25 mm
• Speed: 1900 RPM
• Airflow: 66.9 CFM
• Static Pressure: 1.6 mmH₂O
• Noise Level: 33.2 dBA

At the rear, a 140mm fan effectively removes warm air, helping to maintain balanced airflow throughout the system.

• Size: 140 × 140 × 25 mm
• Speed: 1800 RPM
• Airflow: 81.3 CFM
• Static Pressure: 2.4 mmH₂O
• Noise Level: 34.2 dBA

Independent testing at the PPLP Lab confirmed that the LANCOOL 217 delivers top-tier thermal performance, placing it among the highest-ranked cases in its class. Its efficient airflow design and strong out-of-the-box cooling earned it the prestigious S-Tier Case Performance Award, highlighting its exceptional capabilities in thermal management.

CPU Mode / GPU Mode– Quick Test Guide

CPU Mode

• Best for CPU temperature
• Use tower air coolers for thermal test
• When using tower air coolers, you don’t need to install additional fans on top of the case
• Keep the hard-drive cage uninstalled to have best optimal cooling for GPU cooling

GPU Mode

• Balanced cooling between GPU and CPU
• Use tower air coolers for thermal test
• When using tower air coolers, you don’t need to install additional fans on top of the case
• Better for AIO tests
• Keep the hard-drive cage uninstalled to have best optimal cooling for GPU cooling

FLEXIBLE INSTALLATION, TOOL-LESS DESIGN

The LANCOOL 217 uses a tool-less fan mounting system with rubber pads on the front and bottom fans, allowing users to easily shift between CPU-focused and GPU-focused cooling modes.

Note: The bottom fan can be installed in the lower area for a cleaner look, or users can remove the bracket screws to install different fans based on their setup needs.

The PCIe slot bracket can be turned 90 degrees to support vertical GPU mounting. In this setup, the bottom fan can be moved under the PSU shroud for a hidden look, giving users more flexibility when building their system.

FLEXIBLE AND EASY INSTALLATION

The LANCOOL 217 comes with screws and washers for installing 120mm fans. Users can take out the screws on the two bottom fans to swap them for different ones. The PSU shroud cover can also be removed, making room for up to three 120mm fans.

DUAL PSU MOUNTING, FLEXIBLE BUILDS

The LANCOOL 217 supports two PSU mounting ways, giving the users more options based on the PSU size, cable routing, and overall build layout. This flexible design makes it easier to set up the system, enhancing convenience and compatibility.

(Standard Mode)
When the PSU connectors face the front, it supports ATX PSU up to 220mm long, which is suitable for most standard installs.

Note: Standard mode only supports one HDD cage. If users want to install two HDD cages, please switch to rotated mode.

(Rotated Mode)
When the PSU is turned 90° with the connectors facing the right side, it supports compact PSU up to 180mm. This optimizes cable routing space and allows the fan to directly cool the PSU for improved cooling efficiency. Users can also move the two included bottom fans under the bracket for a hidden look, making the build cleaner and more organized.
