Thank you to Lian Li for supplying the review sample.
Lian Li, founded in 1983, has a long and storied history with a reputation for excellence. Although the company was initially slow to enter new market segments, it has recently begun to tackle new challenges and markets head-on. Known for their world-renowned cases, Lian Li also produces fans, coolers, accessories, and power supplies. They continue to stay relevant in an ever-changing industry and are thriving, with recent releases like the UNI FAN P28 proving to be truly excellent performers.
Today's review focuses on Lian Li's brand new HydroShift LCD 360S AIO, which boasts a range of innovative features. While the main focal point is the pump mounted display (IPS on this model) certainly isn't a new idea, the tubing that runs along the side of the radiator with built-in covers and brackets to maintain a clean look definitely is. Additionally, tubing clips are included to further improve tubing and cable management, keeping the wiring mess to a minimum. To further enhance the cooler's visual appeal, a brushed aluminium side plate is used to help the HydroShift LCD 360S stand out from more contemporary designs. A six-year warranty and a price tag of $179.99 also are nice to see since the cooler has robust support and while not cheap, it's not priced excessively if the performance meets expectations. Let's see if it lives up to the marketing hype and take a closer look.
