Ocypus at Computex 2024: Air and Liquid CPU Coolers, Cases

Ocypus is a new PC casing and cooling brand we've met at Computex 2024. The brand has a formidable lineup of contemporary gaming PC cases, fans, and CPU coolers (both air and liquid). The Iota L36 line of AIO liquid CPU coolers come with high static pressure FDB fans, and a glossy rounded-square pump-block with a segmented display that puts out coolant temperature as measured in the pump (rather than pulled from ACPI over USB/software). The cooler comes in white and black trims, and there's just one radiator size on display—360 mm x 120 mm. The Delta L36 is a "lite" variant of the Iota L36, with a silicon RGB LED diffuser crowning the pump-block instead of the temperature display. Both coolers support the upcoming LGA1851, LGA1700, AM5, and AM4 sockets.

The CPU air cooler lineup is topped by the Iota A62, a large dual fin-stack cooler, which comes in silver and black color variants. It uses a pair of 120 mm FDB fans in push-pull configuration, with the second fan located between the two fin-stacks. The top-plates of the fin stacks have perforations, and the LED segment display peeks out from these in what is a neatly executed design. The Delta A62 is identical to this, but without the display. What's interesting is that the Iota A62 lacks fan illumination, but the Delta A62 has plenty of it.

Lian Li Shows New Cases at Computex 2024

As expected, Lian Li has unveiled a couple of new PC cases at the Computex 2024 show in Taipei, including the LANCOOL 207, LANCOOL 217 featuring a wooden aesthetic, and the O11 Vision Compact. All three new cases pretty much follow the recent trend in PC case design, but also giving it a recognizable Lian Li twist and, of course, and the quality we learned to expect from Lian Li.

The LANCOOL 207 is an interesting PC case as it is basically a Micro-ATX-sized PC case that can accommodate an ATX motherboard, which is quite a feat. Lian Li actually lowered the motherboard tray while moving the PSU to the front. In addition to supporting an ATX motherboards, it also supports up to 360 mm AIO at the top, up to 410 mm long graphics cards, and up to 160 mm long PSUs. The LANCOOL 207 supports up to two 140 mm fans at the front (two 140x30 mm ARGB fans with infinity mirrors are bundled), three 120 mm or two 140 mm ones at the top, two 120 mm above the PSU shroud (also included with the case) and single 120 mm fan at the rear. The front panel gets two USB 3.0 and one USB 3.1 Type-C port, alongside audio jacks and the power button. The LANCOOL 207 is coming in Q3 2024 with an expected price of $79.99.

It uses dual +12 V rails, and offers two 600 W 12V-2x6, besides four EPS, and six 6+2 pin PCIe, making it ideal for Ryzen Threadripper or Xeon W high-end desktops or workstations; or even 2P servers.

Alseye Brings Massive Cooler Selection and a Few Interesting Cases to Computex 2024

Alseye, the Chinese maker of AIO/air coolers and PC cases, had an interesting display at Computex 2024. The company's main showcase was the massive AIO cooler selection with some exciting pump/CPU block combo designs. A star of the show is the company's i360 360 mm AIO water cooler in white. It features a real-time information display of CPU and GPU temps on its CPU block, which resembles the look of a car's turbocharger. With a pump speed of 3200 RPM and fan speeds of 800-1800 RPM with FDB bearings, the i360 should be a quiet implementation. It also comes in an i240 240 mm radiator version with support for AMD and Intel platforms.

TRYX CPU Coolers: Panorama SE is a Standout in AIO CLC Design, with a Curved Display

One of the standout products at Computex this year is the TRYX Panorama SE, an AIO liquid CPU cooler with an innovative 6.5-inch AMOLED curved display on the pump-block that wraps around the front- and side, with an eye-pleasing 1080p resolution. You're supposed to orient it in such a way that its side faces the front of your case, and hope that this portion of the display isn't obstructed by tall memory modules. Perhaps the latest crop of motherboards with DDR5 CAMM2 slots has the answer to this problem.

The curved display and its panoramic edge lets you create anamorphic illusion effects such as the ones you see in buildings with large curved displays. The cooler uses an HDMI connection to your graphics card, and can be made to display just about anything. The Panorama SE comes in 360 mm and 240 mm radiator sizes, and in white- and black trims. The display is embedded in its own L-shaped breakout module that floats over the pump-block. The actual pump-block is somewhat cylindrical, a small 60 mm fan ventilates the pump motor and the heat dissipation chamber.

Hybrid ANC is the classic ANC mode, adaptive changes the level of noise-cancellation on its own; ambient lets some ambient sound from the surroundings let through using the built-in feed-forward mic. With ANC completely off, the Zen Hybrid offers up to 70 hours of use on a single charge. Prices of the two range between $100 to $150.

Xilence Brings Clear Acrylic RGB Fans and Pillarless Cases to Computex 2024

Partly like it's 2012 with clear acrylic RGB LED fans from Xilence. The new Xilence Gaming series 120 mm ARGB fans shed the trend of using frosted plastic to diffuse LED lighting, in favor of clear acrylic for both the impeller and the bore of the fan frame. The LEDs are studded along the bore, and not the impeller hub. You get modern FDB bearings, 4-pin PWM for the main function, and 3-pin ARGB for the lighting. The company also showed us their cable-free daisy-chaining fan series meant for radiator. A single cable powers one of the fans, and daisy-chaining contacts power the others in the series.

Next up, is the Xilence LiQuRizer, a line of all-in-one liquid CPU coolers, which feature a round (typical Asetek) pump-block, with an infinite reflection ornament on top, which shows off the Xilence logo. This logo can be rotated to get the orientation right. Besides ARGB lighting in this pump-block ornament, the included fans have hub-based ARGB. The series comes in 360 mm and 240 mm models. Xilence also showed off a premium variant of the LiQuRizer with an LED segment display that puts out temperature, pump, and fan-speed readings from ACPI (it connects to the motherboard a USB 2.0 header and talks to a software that can access ACPI).
