Lian Li wowed at Computex with its PC case lineup
Lian Li impressed us with its newest PC cases at Computex 2026
Lian Li had a lot of great PC cases to show us at Computex 2026, and for us the highlights were from the budget end of their case spectrum. First, we have their LANCOOL 4, an airflow-oriented case with fans mounted directly to a tempered glass front panel. Next, we have their UX 100, a three-sided tempered glass PC case with a “floating” chassis design that enables increased airflow.
The LANCOOL 4 is due to be released in Q3 2026, and launch with black and white versions. Pre-installed are three front-mounted 140mm dual Light-zone fans, which are installed into cutouts on the case’s curved glass panel. That’s right, this case has a tempered glass front panel and a high-airflow front panel. I would have thought that this wasn’t manufacturable (at least at this price) unless I saw it with my own eyes. There’s clearly some clever engineering behind this PC case.
This case has a three-sided tempered glass design, with the front and side panels made entirely of glass. The lower chamber of this case is modular. This allows users to hide HDD mounts, or give their system a more open aesthetic. This modular part can also be used to install an optional 8.8-inch LCD screen, which is shown in the build below.
A panoramic glass PC case with good airflow? How is this possible?
If you’ve followed us for a while, you will know that we love panoramic glass PC cases. With the LANCOOL 4, we have this design in a very affordable form. If Lian Li can deliver this case for $129.99, we expect it to sell like hot cakes. Many panoramic glass PC cases have compromised airflow, but Lian Li has found a novel way to avoid this problem without making their case crazy expensive.
Lian Li Hydroshift II OLED Curved 360
Within many of Lian Li’s PC builds, the company included its new Lian Li HydroShift II OLED Curved 360 CPU liquid cooler. This cooler features a 6.67-inch 2K OLED display that users can angle to best suit their needs. This can be done in-software with Lian Li’s L-Connect 3, allowing users to adjust their screens without opening their PC case.
Note that this liquid cooler is available in three forms. The cooler has a version with UNI FAN TL FLEX fans, a version with UNI FAN P28 V2 fans, and a fanless version. This means PC builders can use the fans they want in their builds.
Another thing to note is that the display module on this cooler is hot-swappable, which means that it can be installed once the full PC is built/tested or removed when the case is being transported. This makes PC upgrades and transport simpler. There’s no risk of damaging this cooler when installing RAM or new GPUs if users remove the screen first. Clever!
Lian Li introduces its UX100 at Computex
The Lian Li UX100 asks a simple question. How much can Lian Li deliver for $99.99? We have another panoramic glass PC case design with glass on three sides. This PC case is designed to maximise the visibility of your hardware while maintaining strong airflow.
This case features a “Floating” chassis design that gives the fans at the base access to outside air, enabling strong GPU-focused cooling. The case will be available in black and white and is due to launch in Q3 2026.
Around the tempered glass and “floating” section of this PC case is an RGB lighting strip that highlights these elements. These lighting strips cover both sides of the PC case, making it visually appealing at all angles.
At Computex 2026, Lian Li has proved that you don’t need an expensive PC case to have a great-looking system. If you are planning to change your system’s look this year, Lian Li has a few great PC case options that won’t cost the world. Better still, they have plenty of GPU-focused airflow for when it comes time to upgrade other elements of your system.
You can join the discussion on Lian Li’s newest PC cases on the OC3D Forums.
