Back when we looked at the Galahad II Trinity SL-INF from Lian Li, it received a 9/10 for its very impressive load performance, as well as its customizable, RGB-laden components. In this review, we are back with another Lian Li AIO, the HydroShift LCD 360S. As the name implies, this is a 360mm AIO CPU cooler that also includes a nearly 3″ LCD screen on the pump housing. While the 360S version of this cooler eschews RGB LEDs for a more subtle look, you do have the option of the 360RGB or 360TL if you want more RGB in your life. This is a launch day review, so let’s not delay any further!
Special thanks to Lian Li for providing the HydroShift LCD 360S review sample!
Specifications of the Lian Li HydroShift LCD 360S
Packaging of the Lian Li HydroShift LCD 360S
As with pretty much every other AIO, the HydroShift LCD 360S is housed in a rectangular cardboard box featuring a product image and naming information on the top/front. This design gives potential buyers a good idea of what is to be expected visually from the cooler, and also highlights a few of the cooler’s features like the 2.88″ LCD, as well as the white components, warranty information, and compatibility with Lian Li’s L-Connect 3 software.
The back side of the box is void of any imagery, but does include technical specification information. The sides of the box offer a bit of information about the features of the cooler, as well as the L-Connect 3 software.
Inside, I found the AIO neatly stored in a molded cardboard tub, like most other manufacturers use.
Accessories
Included with the HydroShift LCD 360S is a variety of mounting hardware for current AMD and Intel sockets, thermal paste installation tools (paste, templates, and spreader), as well as an additional tubing shroud, which we will cover a bit more later on.
