Tryx claims 'world's first holographic liquid cooler' at Computex but I doubt it was much of a contest

In this episode of 'I wonder what they'll attach to a liquid cooler next', we're looking at one I spotted at Computex 2026 from Tryx that offers a holographic effect.

It's called the Tryx Holo. The radiator isn't anything special; it's sleek with three fans and some subtle RGB lighting. Though peer into the window atop of the pump unit and this liquid cooler's party trick is obvious. There's a tiny guy in there.

I'm not really sure what the character is that I'm looking at—some sort of ghost with a big nose—but it does have a slight holographic appearance to it. It's using a transparent screen with some mirrors to deliver some sorta holographic effect. I'd say calling it a hologram is going too far, but it is something.

Tryx calls it the "world's first holographic liquid cooler", which I suppose is a fair claim, as I've not seen anything else like it. Though admittedly I do think a hologram visible from all angles would be a lot more impactful. As it stands, this one is really best viewed straight on, which inside a case, and not on display outside of a PC case, might be tough.

I don't have a price tag for this one yet, but reportedly it was listed on Tryx's Chinese website for around 999 yuan, which is $147. Though these things don't often directly correlate to pricing elsewhere on the planet, somewhere around the $150-$200 mark, likely on the higher end, seems as good a guess as any should this be released elsewhere.

As for the actual cooler under all that frosting, it's actually made by Asetek. I'm not sure of the exact platform but it should fall in line with a lot of coolers on the market today by way of performance.
