Jsaux Previews 3 Steam Machine Display Faceplates

Jsaux, the maker of a smorgasbord of functional and decorative Steam Deck accessories, has just provided an update on its previously announced Steam Machine faceplate project, which it has revealed to potentially be coming in three separate iterations. On the brand's Discord, it recently held a poll asking for community feedback on three separate versions of the faceplates: one with a large monochrome e-ink display akin to Valve's initial prototype, another with a smaller color e-ink display with a knob and additional buttons on the front, and another with a large color dot matrix display.

It's unclear whether Jsaux will release all three versions of the display, but judging by the response on Discord, both versions of the e-ink faceplate were popular, although the full-size monochrome e-ink display ended up winning the popular vote with 49% of the votes preferring that version. It's worth noting that Jsaux's Discord poll simply asked which version of the display faceplate the accessory maker should launch first, and not which version it should launch at all, suggesting there is at least some intention to launch all three versions.

Cougar Also Shows New AIO Liquid Coolers at Computex 2026

In addition to the new FZR-series air coolers that introduced a digital dot matrix display, Cougar also unveiled its new AIO cooler, the LQX Pro 360 and the LQX Elite 360, both now featuring new VRX PWM fans.

The Cougar LQX Pro 360 AIO cooler gets a 3.95-inch TFT 60 Hz LCD screen with 720×720 resolution as well as an ARGB backlight on both the fan and the screen, giving it a rather unique look. Cougar also included an integrated VRM fan below the screen, which should further eliminate cooling blind spots as well as side vent channels on the pump head. As said, the new LQX Pro 360 uses the new VRX PWM fans with an annular blade design, which promise both high-efficiency and low-noise. In addition, Cougar also brought the LQX Elite 360, which uses the same design but replaces the screen with a large ARGB panel with a matte finish and lacks the integrated VRM fan. On the other hand, it features the same VRX fans.

Ocypus Shows Off New Cooling Solutions and PC Cases at Computex 2026

Ocypus brought a broad cooling and case lineup to Computex 2026 with several new AIOs, air coolers, fans and chassis on display. The AIO lineup is headlined by two Sigma L42 ARGB variants, both using a 420 mm radiator, ceramic-bearing pump, 140 mm fans and able to manage up to 350 W TDP. The difference is the display, one has a 3.5-inch IPS panel at 640×480, the other a 3.95-inch 480×480 screen with a sandblasted anodized aluminium ring and CNC-polished chamfers. Both support MP4, GIF, and image playback through Ocypus display software.

The Omega L36 AIR ARGB is an interesting one, a 360 mm AIO rated at 310 W TDP with dual-direction cooling, a built-in VRM fan, 3.5-inch IPS display and Sigma F36 ARGB fans.

Cougar Shows off CPU Air Coolers With Dot Matrix Displays at Computex

We've already covered Cougar's latest NU-series modular full-tower cases, which support multiple GPUs and PSUs, but the brand has also debuted a number of new cooling products that take a slightly different approach than the typical LCD-on-waterblock designs we've seen from the likes of Cryorig and DeepCool with its latest tower CPU air coolers—although there are also LCD-clad AIOs for those interested. Instead, Cougar has designed its new line-up of FRZ ARGB air coolers with a digital dot matrix display on the top, which enables CPU temperature read-out with a more minimalist aesthetic, while ARGB fans and an ARGB strip on the top of the cooler enable further customization if so desired.

Cougar's FRZ air cooler line-up consists of three versions. The dual-tower FRZ 612 ARGB is the most premium of the lot, with six heat pipes, two ARGB fans, and a digital display and ARGB strip on the top of the cooler. Meanwhile, the FRZ 412 ARGB takes the same formula and slims it down to a single-tower, single-fan cooler with four heat pipes for less demanding workloads. Where the other two FRZ coolers feature an ARGB strip and a digital dot matrix display on the top, the FRZ 412 Elite eschews both the display and the ARGB strip and swaps out the fan for a more basic version without the metal embellishment on the fan hub. The Elite version also has an unpainted heat sink in order to cut costs. All the aforementioned coolers will be available in white and black.
