https://www.techpowerup.com/323980/lian-li-brings-clean-tube-routing-to-aios-with-hydroshift-lcd-series LIAN LI Industrial Co. Ltd., a leading manufacturer of chassis and PC accessories, launches the HydroShift LCD 360 AIOs, that allow for a nearly tubeless aesthetic once installed. There are three options available: HydroShift LCD 360S, HydroShift LCD 360R, and HydroShift LCD 360TL. Each option comes with a 2.88" LCD display at the pump block which is fully customizable via L-Connect 3.
Minimal Tubing
The HydroShift 360S, 360R, and 360TL liquid cooling AIOs have a unique design that conceals tubing to the side of the radiator, creating a clean look. The tubing is designed to sit flush against the sides using ribbed tubing commonly found in water-cooled servers, providing durability and flexibility to bend around the radiator without affecting flow. Two pre-installed retention brackets help with tubing routing, and the system includes a full-length brushed aluminum plate and left/right tube cover plates for a polished appearance. Additionally, a pump mounting hardware cover is provided for a sleek finish.
HydroShift LCD 360S
The HydroShift LCD 360S features a new pump design, now running at 3800 RPM, by enhancing the propeller and water channels, improving performance, and lowering noise levels. The pump has two main cables: one for synchronization with the motherboard using PWM and another main cable that splits into SATA, PWM for the fans, and USB 2.0 for L-Connect communication. Additionally, two tube clips are included to route the main cable along the back of the tubes. The 27 mm thick radiator comes with pre-installed 28 mm non-RGB fans that prioritize quiet operation without compromising performance, with a speed of up to 2500 RPM. Furthermore, they are compatible with the UNI FAN P28's side ARGB kit.
HydroShift LCD 360R
The 360R pump has a slightly larger propeller than the 360S, which allows it to deliver better performance at speeds of up to 3200 RPM. It features a single cable solution that combines SATA for power, PWM for fan daisy-chaining, and USB 2.0 for L-Connect communication. The HydroShift 360R also comes with two tube clips to discreetly route the main cable along the back of the tubes. Additionally, the 360R includes a 31 mm thick radiator and pre-installed 28 mm thick ARGB and PWM fans that can reach speeds of up to 2400 RPM. The ARGB cable for the radiator fans is routed inside the tube braiding to connect inside the pump block and be synchronized via L-Connect.
HydroShift LCD 360TL
The HydroShift 360TL comes with the same 3200 RPM pump and radiator as the 360R. The AIO features 3x pre-installed UNI FAN TL fans for a unique look. The cable that comes from the pump, which can also be routed behind the tubes, features the modules that connect to the daisy-chained TL fans and connection for the included TL hub, this solution provides a single cable solution with full control over the pump and fans from L-Connect 3.
Availability
The HydroShift LCD 360S, 360R, and 360TL AIOs black and white come with a 6-year warranty and are available for pre-order on June 28th, 2024, at an MSRP of $179.99, $199.99, and $259.99 respectively.
I'll admit that there is some interesting innovation here.
