LIAN LI Industrial Co. Ltd., a leading chassis and PC accessories manufacturer, premieres the LIAN LI 2024 DIGITAL EXPO at 9 am EST on YouTube. In this 2-part video, LIAN LI shares updates on prototype cases, a standing desk, and unveils new concepts for an all-in-one cooler and power supply. The prototypes include the SUP-01, the case that experiments with a front GPU layout, the DAN Cases A3 M-ATX case, and the O11 VISION BACK CONNECT. LIAN LI also unveils the GALAHAD II LCD SHIFT, an AIO that minimizes the tubing, the EDGE Series PSU, a new form factor power supply that solves cable access in dual chamber cases, and the DK-07, a new standing desk with new features. The LIAN LI 2024 DIGITAL EXPO will be followed by a roundtable discussion hosted by Jameson Chen, CEO at LIAN LI, with YouTube influencers Stuart Tonks from GGF Events, Justin Robey from Robytech, and PCMR's founder Pedro Valadas.

The SUP-01, a compact 45-liter case, reimagines the PC layout with a front-positioned graphics card and innovative cooling. Equipped with airflow-optimized mesh panels, it surpasses the LANCOOL 216 in cooling performance. The GPU's unique placement optimizes cooling without sacrificing aesthetics and is supported by adjustable brackets. The airflow configuration strategically utilizes GPU fans and rear fans as intakes, and right-side fans as exhausts, ensuring optimal GPU and CPU cooling. The main chamber accommodates motherboard sizes up to ATX, pre-mounted PCIe 4.0 riser cable, and features clearance for 280 to 360 mm AIOs. Storage options include two SSDs or 3.5" HDDs, a removable drive cage, and magnetic dust filters to maintain system cleanliness. The price is set to be $149.99.

Cooler Master, a leading provider of PC components, gaming peripherals, and tech lifestyle solutions, has today announced the NR200P V2 - a redesigned new take on the classic high performance NR200P case.

The TechPowerUp team visited the EK water blocks booth at the CES 2024 international show. We previously covered the company's latest direct-die all-in-one (AIO) water cooler, but many more products were on display. First in line is EK's Quantum-X NoCase chassis, which contradicts traditional PC enclosures with its open, no outer shell design. This radical departure from convention results in a nearly invisible frame crafted from aluminium for a featherlight weight of approximately 3 pounds. Its design is meticulously engineered to be as airy and lightweight as possible without compromising the support needed for essential hardware and liquid cooling components. The case integrates the advanced Reflection² distro plate, equipped with dual D5 pumps to facilitate separate cooling loops for both the CPU and GPU, ensuring optimal thermal management in a minimalist aesthetic.

At the CES 2024 international show, Taiwanese company ENERMAX unveiled new all-in-one (AIO) CPU liquid coolers targeting both mainstream and high-end markets. First in line is the AQUAFLO LCD, which features a removable 5-inch 800x480 resolution magnetic LCD display, allowing monitoring of temperatures, fan speeds, and pump RPM, with the ability to stick on cases or use it as a desktop display. Supporting up to 400 Watt TDPs, the dual-chamber pump design provides flow rates up to 450 liters per hour. The 240 mm and 360 mm radiators use flat 20 mm-thick cooling tubes and ENERMAX Shunt Channel cooling technology for efficient heat transfer. This enables handling the latest overclocked gaming CPUs.

For professional workstations and servers, the LIQTECH XTR 280 and 360 models offer full coverage and 500 Watt+ TDP capacity for the latest AMD Threadripper Pro and Intel Xeon CPUs using larger CPU sockets. An integrated 2.4-inch digital OLED screen directly on the block reports real-time core temperature readings and warnings. A ceramic bearing pump design also pushes 450 liters per hour for cooling under heavy rendering or data center workloads. The LIQTECH XTR ensures professionals can rely on enhanced durability for mission-critical hardware. The new AIO coolers will be available in Q2 2024 through major retailers.

At CES 2024 in Las Vegas, case maker InWin displayed several innovative new models for custom PC builds. The company continues its reputation for eye-catching designs with the debut of the adjustable flatpack POC One case and highly modular Mini Mod-II and Mod-III chassis. The POC One features interlocking panels for easy snap-together assembly, an advancement over the original April-launched POC line. It includes repositionable top or side handles for portable or horizontal setups. Using a mix of aluminium, other metals, and acrylic, the POC One initially comes in black/orange or blue/silver styles. Despite its minimalist flatpack form, it fits full-size components like 335 mm long triple-slot GPUs, 140 mm tall CPU coolers, and standard ATX power supplies. Three PCIe slots and an included riser allow vertical graphics card mounting.

At the CES 2024 show, Thermaltake announced new additions to its cooling lineup—the TOUGHLIQUID EX Pro all-in-one liquid coolers and TOUGHFAN EX Pro high static pressure fans. The new releases incorporate Thermaltake's latest MagForce 2.0 magnetic quick-connect system for simplified installation and flexible component layouts. Available in a range of sizes spanning 240 mm to 420 mm radiator sizes, the TOUGHLIQUID EX Pro leverages large copper radiators and industrial mirror finish water blocks to tame high-TDP CPUs like Intel's 14th gen Core i9 models. TOUGHFAN EX Pro series fans complement the liquid coolers with detachable blades, allowing flow direction swapping based on mounting orientation.

For example, chassis top-mounted radiator fans can be inverted to intake cool air rather than recirculate hot interior air. The TOUGHFAN EX Pro uses enhanced steel motor hubs and copper motor housing for robust performance under pressure. Models push over 70 CFM airflow at noise levels under 30 dBA. By using evolving magnetic-based modular cooling, Thermaltake aims to simplify complex builds and accommodate flexible orientations that are not feasible with wired connections. Combined with extreme static pressure fans, the new TOUGHLIQUID EX Pro and TOUGHFAN Pro EX enable users to cool today's most powerful components efficiently without compromising system aesthetics. The TOUGHFAN EX12 Pro - Swappable Edition comes with an MSRP of $79.99/$89.99 and TOUGHLIQUID 240/280/360/420 Pro ARGB comes at $119.99/$129.99/$139.99/$169.99 pricing structure. The OLED-enabled TOUGHLIQUID OLED 360 Pro comes with a slight premium and is priced at $299.99.
