Hey everyone! I've got a bit of a quirky build going on with my PC, and while I'm pretty content with the specs, I'm a little anxious about whether my chosen case can handle everything. I really love the design and have come across fantastic reviews, but I wanted to get some feedback before I finalize everything. Here are the parts I'm working with:
- **PC Case**: Lian Li LANCOOL 217 ATX Mid Tower Case
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 4.3 GHz 16-Core Processor
- **CPU Cooler**: Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE ARGB 66.17 CFM CPU Cooler
- **Motherboard**: ASRock X870E Taichi Lite EATX AM5 Motherboard
- **Memory**: G.Skill Ripjaws S5 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-6000 CL36 Memory
- **Storage**: Samsung 9100 PRO w/Heatsink 4 TB M.2-2280 PCle 5.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
- **GPU**: Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC SFF GeForce RTX 5070 12 GB Video Card
- **Power Supply**: Corsair HX1000 Platinum 1000 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
I'm aiming for a solid cooling system, especially since I'm planning for upgrades in the future. Thanks for any advice you can give!

Honestly, that motherboard might be overkill unless you're doing heavy tasks that utilize all those cores. And for RAM, I'd suggest keeping got 6000MHz CL30 in mind. It might save you some bucks without losing much performance. You'll also want to make sure you know which version of the HX1000 you're looking at!
Looks like your parts should fit just fine! You might want to double-check everything on PCPartPicker to confirm compatibility. I can see you’re gearing up for some serious performance, so keeping an eye on cooling is definitely smart! What’s your main purpose for this build?
The Lian Li LANCOOL 217 can support E-ATX boards, so you should be all set. Just make sure to check out photos of the board installed in that case to reassure yourself. Remember, case choice often reflects both part compatibility and your aesthetic preference!
