When the original Hydroshift from Lian Li dropped last year we were blown away by the hidden tubes and tech innovations. It came with a few caveats, however... One of which being the compatibility of the cooler and rigidity of the tubes. These issues have been ironed out with the second generation, bringing a far more appealing option for a clean PC aesthetic.

With 'offline' mode, you're able to rotate the bezel to switch LCD display modes and RGB lighting. This is a welcomed addition, especially for those trying to retain a minimalist system without extra software.

Lian Li have also finally launched their brand new SL-INF fans and they are our favourites so far. Sure, the wireless feature is one the headlines here, but those new 3 zone lights look brilliant, offering a new perspective and design language within builds.

If there's one thing we can count on Lian Li for, it's their ability to push new innovations whilst fulfilling the needs of the PC DIY Community. The New Hydroshift II is a very appealing option, with or without fans.
