On the case side, Lian Li showcased new additions across its LANCOOL, O11 and Vector families. The LANCOOL 4, which was announced shortly before the event, appeared in its final form with the curved front panel and triple‑fan intake layout. The O11 Vision M also made a physical debut, presenting a wider internal layout and a revised chamber structure aimed at improving component clearance and airflow. Lian Li also displayed the Vector V150, a compact chassis with a hybrid mesh‑and‑glass front panel.

Cooling hardware was another major part of the booth, with new UniFan models drawing significant attention. Lian Li demonstrated its latest FLEX‑series fans, including versions equipped with LCD hubs and updated interlocking mechanisms designed to simplify cable management. These new models build on the UniFan concept with more flexible configurations and expanded visual options, giving builders additional ways to customise both airflow and aesthetics. The company also displayed the HydroShift II LCD CURVED 360 AIO, featuring a movable curved display integrated into the pump housing — a notable evolution of the HydroShift concept that was previewed late last year.

Lian Li’s desk‑style chassis also returned in updated form. The DK‑07 Wood and DK‑B models were shown with revised layouts, including sliding or retractable system compartments and integrated display elements.

CES 2026: Geekom debuts ‘world’s lightest all-metal laptop’

9 janvier 2026 à 10:30

At CES this week, Geekom showcased multiple new laptop models, including what it claims to be the world's lightest all-metal laptop, weighing just 1kg and measuring in at just 0.23″ at its thinnest point.

The X14 Pro features a 2.8K OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, aiming to deliver strong colour accuracy and clarity for creative workloads. Inside, it pairs Intel’s Core Ultra 9‑185H processor with 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD, giving it enough headroom for demanding multitasking and content‑creation tasks. GEEKOM rates the system for up to 16 hours of battery life, positioning it as a genuine all‑day device. A limited‑time two‑year warranty is also included.

Alongside the 14‑inch model, GEEKOM introduced the GeekBook X16 Pro. It carries the same core specifications but scales up to a 16‑inch display for users who need more screen space for complex layouts or multi‑window workflows.

CES 2026: Endorfy launches new cases, wireless peripherals and more

9 janvier 2026 à 12:56

At CES this week, we stopped by the Endorfy booth to get a look at new peripherals hitting the market early this year, including new keyboards and mice, a new PC chassis and more.

Watch via YouTube below:

 

Timestamps:

  • 00:00 New Keyboards and Mice
  • 01:33 Aquarius 8000 Case
  • 02:09 Viro Infras Wireless and Viro Wireless
  • 03:00 Solum 2 Pro and Solum 2 Mics
  • 03:48 Power Supplies

If you’ve used Endorfy keyboards before and felt the RGB wasn’t quite bright enough, the upcoming Thock V2 addresses that with brighter LEDs, along with magnetic switches for even faster response times and greater control over actuation points, making it an ideal choice for gaming desks around the world. Endorfy is also expanding its mouse range with new LIV mice, with a new grey colour option hitting the market. A new LIV mouse built with magnesium alloy is also coming out, which sheds weight even further while retaining rigidity, despite all of the cut-outs across the mouse shell to keep weight to a minimum.

Another product Endorfy is showing is the Aquarius 8000. The “8000” refers to the height class, and a smaller 6000 model is also on the way. The case ships with ARGB fans and supports Project Zero‑style back‑to‑front builds. This chassis also addresses the airflow complaints of previous ‘fishtank' style cases by putting mesh vents all along the bottom of the case, with more perforations along the back panel and roof. Availability is expected toward the end of Q1, with pricing around €139.

Endorfy also has two new wireless Viro headsets. One of the models we saw on show has a battery life of around 24 hours, which is pretty strong and more than enough to get you through a day of gaming. However, the second headset pushes for a 120-hour battery life, which could potentially get you through many gaming sessions over the course of a week without needing to reach for a charging cable. We expect to see these headsets again later in Q1 once they are ready to hit retail.

Endorfy has a wide range of Solum branded microphones on the market but this year, we are getting the Solum 2 and the Solum 2 Pro. These are standalone microphones, featuring a twist dial at the base that switches between volume and gain, so you'll be able to make adjustments on the fly without diving into any software. These are expected to enter full production soon, with availability between March and April. Pricing is around €99 for the Pro, €85 for the standard model, and roughly €70 for the entry‑level ‘Core' version. USB and 3.5mm connectivity is provided on the rear.

Finally, Endorfy has new Supremo Gold PSUs hitting the market, offering fully modular cabling at decent price points to make them more accessible to PC builders on tighter budgets.

KitGuru Says: We look forward to getting a more in-depth look at Endorfy's new peripherals and hardware in the coming months.

CES 2026: Cougar launches new self-adjusting chair, PSUs, cases and more

9 janvier 2026 à 10:59

COUGAR has outlined its 2026 lineup at CES, presenting a range of new PC cases, power supplies and an updated ergonomic gaming chair.

The new case lineup includes the CFV235‑G, a special‑edition variant of the CFV235 series featuring a full glass front panel and graffiti‑style branding. It retains the Central Floating Ventilation structure, a suspended partition between the PSU and main chamber that converts unused internal space into an active intake path, with glass side panels maintaining a panoramic view of the system. The MX600 Max continues the series’ airflow‑focused design, using square perforations and a refined dual‑curve airflow ramp to direct air from its front‑mounted 200mm ARGB PWM fans. A modular I/O panel allows flexible case orientation, and a detachable top cover simplifies installation.

The Duoair supports both mesh‑front and glass‑front configurations, with the PSU compartment moved to the front to create a recessed intake channel feeding angled bottom fans, enabling support for GPUs up to 410mm and shipping with dual 140mm ARGB PWM fans. Rounding out the cases, the FV130 adopts a compact dual‑chamber layout with the PSU relocated to the secondary chamber, opening space for an angled bottom fan intended to eliminate dead‑air pockets while still supporting 410mm GPUs and reverse‑connector motherboards.

COUGAR is also updating its gaming chair lineup with the Terminator Air, which introduces a mechanical Dynamic Adaptive Support system built around the company’s “Second Spine” design. The chair adjusts its alignment automatically as the user shifts posture, with manual controls for backrest height and seat depth, weight‑balanced tilt control and 3D rotating armrests.

The power‑supply range expands with three updated series. The Polar V2 line (1200/1000/850) is fully modular and 80 PLUS Platinum certified, exceeding ATX3.1 requirements with a 300% power‑excursion tolerance for dual‑GPU systems. It uses Japanese capacitors, eight protection circuits and a 130mm FDB fan inside a 150mm chassis. The PV series (1200/1000/850) also carries 80 PLUS Platinum certification with up to 92% efficiency, native PCIe 5.1 support and Japanese capacitors cooled by a 140mm FDB fan. The GQ series (850/750) targets compact builds with an 80 PLUS Gold rating, up to 90% efficiency, ATX3.1 compliance and native PCIe 5.1 support, built in a 140mm‑deep form factor and cooled by a 120mm rifle‑bearing fan.

KitGuru Says: The new Cougar chair looks particularly nice.
