Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO - Best Fan Configuration

Testing the best fan and cooling layout in the Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO allowing me to answer the important questions below on how you should build in this case. IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION - The high temperatures with the upright GPU shown in the video were caused by the GPU I used rather than the case or the upright GPU kit. In fact using the upright GPU kit gives some of the best temperatures in this case.
