GameMax, an emerging brand of PC gaming components including gaming cases and power supply units, announces the launch of the GX-1050 PRO BK and GX-1050 PRO WH 80 Plus Platinum power supply units, compliant with the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards and comes with a native 16-pin 12V-2x6 connectors. The power supply features a powerful 12 V rail designed for high-performance gaming systems supporting the latest high-end NVIDIA RTX graphics cards.

The GameMax GX-1050 PRO WH is the white edition that comes with matching flat white cables. On the other hand, the GameMax GX-1050 PRO BK is the standard black version with flat black cables. The GX PRO WH/BK's modular cable design create neat and clutter-free cable management having only the necessary cables installed.

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).

At Computex 2024, FSP had a powerful presence with the unveiling of its new VITA, ADVAN, and MEGA series PSUs. The VITA 850 W and 1000 W series targets budget-conscious builds, offering efficiency ratings from bronze to gold. These PSUs feature premium bulk capacitors, ensuring reliability and longevity, and some models include silent fans for quiet operation without sacrificing cooling performance. The ADVAN series is tailored for gamers and professionals who seek a balance of performance and affordability. Available in Bronze, Gold, and Platinum efficiency ratings, these PSUs cater to mainstream gaming rigs and workstations. Notable features include a semi-fanless design for quiet operation at low loads, sleek black cables for efficient cable management, and multiple voltage protection safeguards.

DeepCool, a leader in innovative cooling solutions, proudly presents the ASSASSIN 4S, its next evolution in an already proven award winning air cooler that redefines elegance, performance, and ease of installation in the PC building market. The ASSASSIN 4S is a testament to sophistication, blending substantial thermal dissipation and silent operation with a sleek aesthetic. Boasting a simple yet refined design, the ASSASSIN 4S features seven heat pipes intricately routed through dual, black-coated fin towers, complemented by an improved 140 mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fan. This design not only enhances cooling performance but also ensures unobstructed RAM clearance, catering to the demands of modern high-powered processors.

Lian Li also presented a new portfolio of liquid cooling all-in-one (AIO) solutions and new fans. Called the GALAHAD II TRINITY series, it includes three models: the GALAHAD II TRINITY, GALAHAD II TRINITY SL INF, and GALAHAD II TRINITY PERFORMANCE. The TRINITY series features three interchangeable caps for pump block personalization and 45-degree rotating fittings at the radiator for convenient tube positioning. The GALAHAD II TRINITY model is available in 240 and 360 sizes and comes equipped with pre-installed RGB fans with flawless cable connectivity. The GALAHAD II TRINITY SL-INF model, also available in 240 and 360 sizes, comes with pre-fitted UNI FAN SL INFINITY fans and a controller. Lastly, the GALAHAD PERFORMANCE model, available in a 360 size, features pre-installed 28 mm thick high-performance LCP fans with seamless cable integration, a 32 mm thick radiator with a unique double wave fin design, and a 4200RPM pump. It is set to launch in June.

In addition, there is a GALAHAD II LCD AIO. This 280/360 AIO features a 2.88" LCD screen at the top of the pump, with a display resolution of 480x480. Two aluminium caps, complete with edge-diffused LED lighting, adorn the pump's sides. The LCD supports MP4 files, customizable layers, and screen capturing, with the added capability of a split-screen function. With 2 GB of flash memory, it allows for MP4 uploading of up to three minutes in length.

DeepCool debuted its Assassin IV Dual Tower CPU cooler earlier this year at the CES 2023 trade show - as covered by TPU at the time - its very eye-catching design was described as looking: "like (a) big dark cube inside your case, with a shroud covering all its sheet-metal." The flagship high-performance CPU cooler seems to ready for an imminent launch, with press material and product images being released today for the Chinese market. Early impressions indicate that hardware enthusiasts are appreciative of the almost all-black monolithic aesthetic, with some folks predicting that DeepCool is going to win computer hardware product design awards.

DeepCool press material states (via translation) that its Assassin IV CPU cooler provides super silent operation while dealing with up to 280 W of heat - Intel's latest high-end Core i9 CPUs could be tamed with relative ease. The heatsink is comprised of 7 heat pipes with a dual fan attachment that includes 120 and 140 mm FDB fans - said to operate silently at high RPMs. The fans are rated at 500 - 1700 RPM, with an airflow delivery of 79.1 / 58.06 CFM in performance mode, and 63.76 / 46.75 CFM airflow for the gentler quiet mode. Deepcool's specifications indicate that these cooling fans produce less than or equal to 29.3 dB(A) noise at peak performance, and less than or equal to 22.6 dB(A) noise in quiet mode. The entire cooling solution consumes 2.88 W in performance mode.
