One of the biggest attractions at the Computex 2021 show floor was Lian Li’s UniFan TL LCD Series of premium case fans. These fans feature circular LCD displays that can play GIFs, making RGB a thing of the past. The demo at the show had GIFs of Pac-Man ghosts and even a short clip of a fighting game moving through each fan. The fans can also display still images, like PC temperatures or even a personal image. The 120mm UniFan TL LCD Series takes advantage of Lian-Li’s neat no-cable connection and is expected to hit retailers in Q3, selling for $129 each or $390 for a pack of three. However, it should be noted that only six of these fans can be installed per PC due to controller limitations.
Corsair’s iCue Link Tech
Corsair’s new iCue Link tech is used in its new QX RGB fans, which focus on a simple yet flashy design. These fans use a new connector that allows for easy daisy-chaining and attachment to the controller with just one cable. Unlike traditional daisy chains, the speed and RGB of each fan in the chain can be adjusted through the software, providing more control over airflow. Corsair’s philosophy of being builder-friendly has been applied to its fans, making them a great addition to any PC setup.
MSI’s “Floating Hub Cap” Design
MSI’s new static logo design is inspired by the hubcaps of a Rolls-Royce, giving it a “Floating Hub Cap” effect. This mesmerizing floating effect enhances brand visibility and will be added to some of its case fans, AIO coolers, and Suprim RTX 40-series cards. This design is sure to appeal to those who love street racing culture.
