The Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini is a compact PC chassis for building a system with mini-ITX, micro-ATX, ATX or E-ATX motherboards. It is a case, not a complete computer, so it has no processor, memory or storage of its own. The closest Thinvent alternative is the Thinvent Treo Mini PC, a ready-to-run computer that ships with a processor, memory, storage and an operating system already installed.
