Lian Li Launches the O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini Case

[Nomad76]

Expanding on the success of the O11D EVO, Lian Li has collaborated with Automobili Lamborghini to release a mid-tower case perfect for any petrolhead, the O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini.

Overview
Italian luxury meets Taiwanese innovation; the O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini is the next release from Lian Li in the O11 series. A mid-tower case crafted to be both aesthetically stunning and yet functional, the O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini case continues with the seamless look and dual chamber design of the O11 EVO RGB with additions to really drive home the Lamborghini collaboration.





Sporting a sleek design fit for Lamborghini
Teaming up with Automobili Lamborghini, the Lian Li O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini is adorned with well thought-out details to please even the biggest motorsport enthusiast. The iconic Lamborghini bull logo features proudly on the front tempered glass panel, accompanied by Giallo Orion yellow accents across the case. This includes the rubber washers and lettering, as well as the lighting strips, which are also preset to the Giallo Orion Pantone colour. The top and front panels feature slick carbon fibre, with the feet and front I/O also receiving the same treatment.

If that wasn't enough, the rear mount fan mount has been replaced with an integrated 5" LCD display, reminiscent of a car dashboard. The speedo and rev counter have been replaced to display CPU or GPU performance details and can be controlled by buttons on the back of the case. Switch between displaying GPU or CPU information as well as altering the display colour. The O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini is limited edition, with just over 6000 available. Each case has a unique number featured on the back panel.

Internal
As with the O11D EVO, the O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini sports a spacious dual chamber design, to showcase only the best components, the PSU and other non-desirable parts can be neatly tucked away in the second chamber. The chassis can support the latest GPUs with a clearance of up to 455.7 mm and up to E-ATX motherboards. The case also continues to offer multiple removable panels to not only allow easy access for installation but also to be configured in "Reverse Mode" to support an inverted motherboard layout.

Keeping cool under pressure
To cool this lean racing machine, the O11 EVO RGB Automobili Lamborghini can support a total of 9x 140 mm fans across the top, bottom, and side of the case. For those looking for a water-cooling build, the top can support up to a 420 mm radiator, while the bottom and side can support 360 mm radiators.

the name sounds like it's parodying itself

Is there actual noticeable differences between the ATX-sized O11 models? I'm thinking of the legendary Dynamic myself, but if others are as good for a custom loop setup, other models could pass as well.

Limited edition = mucho deniro for what is just ANUTHA 011 variant that brings very, very little if anything to the market.....certainly nuthin new or exciting, or dare I say it: innovative !

And given the average starting price of a Lambo, these will be hellamucho expensive

349,90€ in Portugal, which I can say it is muito dinheiro for a case unless you worship the brand.

No mention of price so can we assume they are expensive?
My local stockists don't mention this version.

So around 500 Australian banana dollars then, maybe more.
edit: closer to $600 AU.

I wonder if Lian Li has to pay a pretty penny to use the logo and name or if Lamborghini approached them and said they wanted in on the PC case world because they're not making it anymore just on their name and cars anymore.....

Anyway, it just looks like pretty much every other tempered glass case that's made the rounds this year. Nothing about it stands out to me. I think it would have been better to get some etched logo in a nice side panel or front panel over a tiny little logo and some yellow accent color. It just feels like a cheap way to jack the price up.

Which dumbdumb was in charge of designing this Patent troll case? rear fan slot is now useless thanks to some crap slapped there which also wont be seen properly thanks to tinted and slightly frosted glass.

Rear fans are moot now anyway with top and bottom fans and air flow.
I'd rather a solid rear panel for more directed air and less holes for dust to get in.

 

[P4-630]

I may buy some Lambo stickers online and slap it on the Be Quiet! case I will be buying end this year....

Then sell it on fleabay for twice the price

Cooler Master SL600 had chimney layout(relying on bottom to top air flow) but I remember Gamers Nexus pointed out having a rear fan would have helped that case. I would rather have option to mount fan in that location rather than whats done here.

Moot? I'll take two or even three 140mm rear exhausts since that's where all the heat is anyways. CPU air coolers flow towards the rear. Considerably more hot air comes from from my rear exhaust than my top exhaust. Bottom to top dumps you're GPU heat into everything else. Convection in a case isn't that strong.

I think it really boils down to the particular case. In my Silverstone Raven 03 the rear fan is messing with the proper air flow and that's what reviewers said. I don't have a fan on the spot there, just the two 180s on the bottom and one 120 on the top.

In this Lian Li case, it might be a problem though as there really isn't solid sides all around to channel the air upwards. But we will know soon enough, someone will buy it and review it

 

[phints]

Gorgeous design and Lian Li makes great products, but I would never want a car company logo on a PC case.

 

[wNotyarD]

@Nomad76 I suggest changing every instance of solely Automobili, e.g.

Lian Li has collaborated with Automobili to release [...]

to Lamborghini.

See, Automobili Lamborghini translates literally to Lamborghini Cars. Calling it Automobili would be like calling the Ford Motor Company just Motor Company in an article.

When reading the title I was expecting the case to be more aero dynamic or more like those specialty cases that have completely unique shapes for a PC case.

Yea, you'd think that Lambo would want something more sleek, slick & unique to slap their logo on, but maybe they are just desperate to get their name out there any way they can, thinking da dweebs will buy these just for the epeen of having said logo on something they own....

But like P4-630 said above, if I actually wanted a car logo on my pc (I DO NOT) then I'd just do the $5 sticker thingy and be happy

so sad for what was once a legendary, luxury brand to stoop to this level IMHO

Relative to its long history Lamborghini is currently is very good financial shape which a simple web search would have answered. Once again, I will play human search engine for others on the Internet:

Lamborghini Broke Sales, Revenue, And Profit Records In 2023 | Carscoops

Lamborghini raked in $2.89 billion in revenue and $785 million in profit, making 2023 its best year ever

www.carscoops.com

It has not always been the case through this auto manufacturer's decades.

Anyhow, lifestyle marketing is a thing in 2024 and this is the type of thing consumers these days go for.

Porsche Design has been doing this for decades. Ferrari has also gotten into this particularly in Europe with retail stores and more cross-branded merchandise that Americans don't see in the stateside malls. Formula One is a big deal in Europe, here in 'Murika, it's NASCAR or bust so Chevy Camaros. But Harley-Davidson has been doing this stateside also for decades.

The fact that Lamborghini is jumping into a co-branded premium PC case market isn't particularly eyebrow raising.

But putting an etched logo really would not match the Lambo brand. Their cars are flashy head turners. Hell, you can often hear them before you see them. An understated brand presence is the complete antithesis of the Lamborghini corporate image. This is a rockstar brand.

 

[P4-630]

Actually all Lambo's are just Audi's since 1998.

 

[natr0n]

Probably only one who thought of this game reading the case title.

 

[KrazyT]

At least, they could have designed some hexagonal shape somewhere in the case, it's the Lambo's design gimmick !

Lian Li took care of that. A lot of vent holes are hexagonally shaped.

Of course, Lian Li didn't change anything. Older non-Lamborghini branded O11D cases have the same shaped hexagon holes.

In fact it's not a design element exclusive to the O11 cases. The hexagon vent holes are in other Lian Li cases like the Lancool series.
