**A Closer Look at Lean Lee's Innovative PC Hardware Designs**

Lean Lee is known for pushing the boundaries of PC hardware design, and his latest creations are no exception. In this article, we'll take a closer look at some of the innovative features that make Lean Lee's designs stand out from the rest.

**The Evolution of 90° Glass Corners**

One of the earliest features that caught our attention was the retention of 90° glass corners in Lean Lee's latest designs. However, as we explored further into his creations, it became apparent that he has since moved away from this design approach. Instead, he has opted for a more space-efficient approach by introducing different angles and panels to create a unique look. The result is a more compact and vertically-oriented build, with 360-degree support for three frames at the bottom. This design also features a BTF motherboard and interesting paneling that "hugs" around the hardware.

**Inverse Orientation: A Game-Changer for PC Cases**

Lean Lee has taken a bold move by introducing an inverse orientation option, allowing builders to place their components on the opposite side of the case. This may seem like a minor detail, but it's a game-changer for those who want to showcase their beautiful hardware. For those who prefer the traditional KPC enclosure setup with their components on the left side, Lean Lee has made it possible with this innovative feature.

**Server-Inspired Tubing Solutions**

One of the most interesting features we saw at Lean Lee's booth was his server-inspired tubing solution for AIO builds. By incorporating tubes that can be easily installed and managed, Lean Lee has eliminated the need for cables and fan blocks, creating a much cleaner and more efficient build. This design approach is a clear departure from traditional AIO setups, which often come with bulky fan blocks and tubes.

**Wireless Communication in PC Fans**

Lean Lee's latest creation, the SL120 V3, features wireless communication between the motherboard or software and the fans. This innovative technology eliminates the need for cables, reducing clutter and making it easier to manage your system. The SL120 V3 also supports signal RGB, allowing users to control their RGB lighting with ease.

**Next-Generation LConnect Software**

Lean Lee's lconnect software has received a significant update, integrating seamlessly with Signal RGB. This new software allows users to control all of their RGB needs from a single interface, making it easier to manage complex lighting setups. With this latest update, Lean Lee has taken the first step towards unifying his product lineup and creating a more streamlined experience for users.

**Conclusion**

Lean Lee's innovative approach to PC hardware design is clear in his latest creations. From server-inspired tubing solutions to wireless communication in PC fans, he's pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the industry. With his commitment to innovation and user experience, it's no wonder we're excited to see what the future holds for Lean Lee's designs.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: engood people we're at lean Lee you got to feel the difference you know what I love I love me some wood on cases so this is the new A3 as you know I've been on paternity leave so I didn't even know this existed this beautiful ITX enclosure but they want to showcase this front panel that is going to be maybe a DLC depending if people want wood at the front or not and I mean with this type of texture and this really beautiful Walnut very natural very clean I'm not sure if this is completely treated yet normally when you see wood on computer cases it's a little bit smooth this one actually has quite a bit of texture lean Lee wants to know if this is going to be a value out DLC if this something you're interested in or not so let us know in the comments let's move on to the other wood that is found here as well okay Eber you excited for the wood you're excited for the wood right I hope and by the way huge thanks to our sponsors for making this confex strip possible fantex anch thermal and TI TR now moving on to this other wood piece this is the 217 enclosure if you recall the 216 was like this budget airflow Focus case and the 217 brings in the wood it keeps them with the air flow it's got two 170 mm fans at a 30 mm thick of course they're thicker because they're bigger too the rest is kind of you know your traditional stuff it supports BTF motherboards so like back facing connectors and also this is the one you can see here it's a high performance mesh really good for air flow and also dust uh filtration but because we have so much volume coming here the 216 owners were complaining there was way too much dust accumulation on the interior so Le and Lee they actually put additional fine dust filters on the interior of the fan and that's because they found that a lot of dust accumulation actually was built up on the interior of the fan and therefore uh this is just an additional layer to help with dust protection on the in inside the case including on top of this you know just a very plain addition now you can press a button and the fans will start spinning in Reverse therefore instead of having the volume of air going this way it's going to flow out that way removing any dust accumulation that has built up over the fan blades they've also smoothed out the fan blades to help with this uh exact process so the 2117 just a minor upgrade the frame is completely open they will sell like additional brackets to mount smaller fans but why would you just use the stock fans you pleb but the most interesting thing here at L for me personally is the Lan cool 207 it's a $79 enclosure coming in in setember and I love me compact ATX enclosure so this is like a Micro ATX chassis in its size but it will support fulls size ATX components because of really clever and really simple reconfiguration on the interior so if we look at over here first of all the motherboard is indented therefore clearing out some space from the you know from the Side Glass and this allows for additional clearance on the top radiator so let's say mounting a 280 mm radiator at the top will not interfere with your memory or your heat sinks on the motherboard so that's a really good addition the second change notice how short the power supply shroud is at the bottom and we have two built-in fans at the bottom here to help with GPU intake now normally you you'd find a power supply underneath and this fans will be on top of the power supply shroud getting choked up but they've actually moved the power supply to the front of the enclosure uh below this thing clearing out this room for both for air flow the fans are centered and not offset close with the side panel which in their test thing gives you better air flow so if I just rotate this over here we can see the power supply is installed facing you with the cable so I at first I thought this going to be introduced a little bit a challenging process for cable management but because we have all this additional space right above the power supply this is exactly where you can concentrate all your cables and that's awesome and so normally this is where you see the power supply getting uh you know choking the the fans that are normally found on top of the power supply shroud but this is your storage bracket installing ssds hard drives and of course you can hide some cables in there as well if you want to but uh that's the 207 a very affordable way to introduce ATX components in a fairly compact ATX enclosure I'm also interested to test to see like what what the airflow is going to be like because we're not chalking those bottom fans that they're going to help with GPU cooling looks like at the front we have some fans too included right 2140 m f P of the front pre-installed including the two 120s underneath the GPU all for $79 so you get Compact and airf flow exactly what Lan cool is all about and then we have the o1 compact man Le and Lee with the o1 series uh another fish thing but it's slightly smaller so this one's the original size of the so it's not uh the really large of the dynamic Evo or something else but the interesting thing about this one is the O vision compact so of course we have the glass to the top I absolutely love this uh visual design but they will include a mesh top panel including a uh you know a fan strip for installation of radiator and fans because you can convert this into the traditional looking original o1 but with the modern features now you can see the radiator is behind the set of fans so there's this massive cutout above the motherboard tray to route your tubes therefore hiding the radiator in the back and giving you a little bit more clearance on the interior because the chassis is slightly smaller and of course we got to check out subbed sunyside up the the sister company from uh lean Lee this is their new shuttle case and Eber why don't you come around and see what how shuttle is spelled look how fun that is look and also fantasy check this out I I love their names isn't that so fun I mean you got to have fun with the the naming scheme but the shuttle is this really interesting way to introduce fun into your life you know you know it's not a traditional F fish tank look because you know it's we still have the 90° glass corners but when you introduce all these different angles and panels they're going after the space shuttle look so everything is vertical 360 support three frames at the bottom BTF motherboard and I do love the paneling that kind of uh hugs around your hardware and interesting thing is that this is left facing so for all those people who want the K PC enclosure on your left side with your beautiful components now it's possible if you do inverse then uh you're stuck with upside down text my friend also as far as I understand there stuff with some fans Michael take it away all right so now that Demitri is done with uh a little bit boring cases I want to talk about what is interesting me here so in this build you're going to see something actually you're not going to see something that you typically see in a lot of builds with aios what is it I'll give you two seconds one two well guess what there's no tubes coming and blocking your build over here there's no tubes almost being munched by the fan that's because Leon Le has found a way to effectively hide the tubes in an AIO build so what they've done is they've taken a lot of cues from the server market for the tubing at least and so let me explain this there needs to be a channel in order to move these tubes into the center of the AO so those server style tubes allow you to achieve a very very tight Bend here now if you're looking at this right now you might be wondering will this fit into my build because there's a lot of space taken up here next to the fans and and the answer is as long as your build supports 140 mm fans this AO should typically fit okay the next stop is something that's actually very very unique in the PC Hardware industry right now when it comes to the communication between your motherboard or your software and the fans so what you see here is lean Le strammer V3 so this is a new model of the strammer that has a couple of updates here and there to make it look a little bit better and also the SL 120 V3 fans but the way the communication happens is pretty interesting it is all done wirelessly the nice thing is that this eliminates a ton of cable clutter it's still a very very beta product right now it's not ready for release but what we've seen is a pretty seamless integration between wireless communication so you're basically able to eliminate a lot of the cabling with no RGB cables yes you still need pwm for power and a lot of communications but what this allows you to do is take those RGB cables eliminate them completely clean up that build which is great because imagine you're running that AI that we just looked at you have less RGB cables it's already steps in the right direction and luckily this is not always on it's not always communicating via 2.4 GHz what it does is it communicates only when necessary so if you put like an input into the lconnect software you press okay that's the only time that that signal happens and then all of that information is stored on the hardware of the fans or the cables or any other component that lean Lee ends up releasing with this system I'm really interested to try this see if there's any crazy amount of interference but so far even here at the busy show floor we've tried a few times looks amazing the other thing that has changed in order to sort of like update their environment is their lconnect software I know you're pulling out your hair right now but there's some really good news on that front too there's a next generation of the software that's very very beta right now that I think you're going to like because lean Lee is doing inte ation with signal RGB so basically what you can do is have in the end lconnect 3 as your One-Stop shop for all of your RGB needs from the motherboard to the memory to lean Le's items as well if you want to use the lconnect software as it is you're just using it like this if you want to turn on Signal RGB then suddenly you have all of your I guess you would call them all of your modes through signal RGB through what you already know from that program now the idea here in the end is to make sure that signal RGB has full integration into lconnect 3 when that happens we don't know I I I really want that to happen because singal RGB for us at least has been very very stable controlling everything from Asus motherboards to graphics cards to gigabyte peripherals basically basically everything so I guess that's pretty much it for lean Lee I wanted to thank you for watching this video Demitri's over there still doing his thing I'm Mike with harro Canuck and I'll see you in the next one have a great day guysgood people we're at lean Lee you got to feel the difference you know what I love I love me some wood on cases so this is the new A3 as you know I've been on paternity leave so I didn't even know
