Poor quality, doesn't last.
Additional Comments:
Right out of the box, one of the fan RGB didn't work. I contacted Lian Li support 3 times and never heard back from them. Not even an acknowledgement that they received my request for support.
A few months in, the RGB lighting on the other fan started misbehaving and part of the LEDs would get stuck on a random colour, mostly turquoise and sometimes green. Again Lian Li support wouldn't better replying to my enquiries.
Now after roughly 10 months, my CPU (10900k) started overheating, around 70° C at idle and peaking at 100° C every few minutes. I remember a few weeks ago hearing some water gargling noise coming from the AIO. I was able to mitigate some of that my disabling turbo, increasing fan speed and lowering voltage. But it kept getting worst and worst. I finally replaced the unit with a AIO from Asus and what do you know, my idle temp is now back to 30° C. I will contact Lian Li support once more since these supposedly have 5 years warranty, but that's useless if they don't bother following up on it.
