GIGABYTE expands AORUS lineup with ELITE liquid coolers and C510 Glass Infinity case at Computex 2026
GIGABYTE continued its wave of new hardware announcements at Computex 2026 with two eye-catching additions to the AORUS ecosystem: the AORUS ELITE series of all-in-one liquid CPU coolers and the AORUS C510 Glass Infinity case. Both products focus on blending performance-focused PC hardware with bold visual customization, giving gamers and PC builders more ways to create a clean, modern, and highly personalized setup.
The new AORUS ELITE liquid coolers are designed for users who want strong cooling performance without giving up style. One of the biggest highlights is the LCD “Edge View” display built into the pump housing. Through GIGABYTE’s control software, users can monitor up to four real-time system statistics from a selection of 11 options, making it easier to keep an eye on important data such as CPU temperature, system load, fan speed, or other performance metrics.
Lighting is also a major part of the design. The 360mm version features up to 87 LEDs around the fan shroud, while the 240mm model includes up to 58 LEDs. Rather than using harsh or uneven lighting, GIGABYTE has aimed for a smooth, diffused RGB effect that should look impressive inside a tempered-glass gaming PC build. For users who want their cooling system to act as a visual centerpiece, the AORUS ELITE series appears to be built with that goal in mind.
For airflow, GIGABYTE is using its Hawk Fans, a design already familiar to many AORUS users. These fans are paired with a 12-channel radiator, while the pump connects through 420 mm tubing. That longer tube length should help make installation easier across different case layouts, especially in builds where radiator placement can be tight or unconventional.
Alongside the coolers, GIGABYTE also revealed the AORUS C510 Glass Infinity, a compact case that looks fairly simple at first glance. Its portable mATX-style design gives it a clean and practical appearance, and the detachable handle adds convenience for users who move their systems around. The handle can also be repositioned, which is a useful touch for different desk setups or transport needs.
The real surprise comes from the side panel. Instead of being limited to a standard glass panel, the C510 Glass Infinity can be fitted with a 16-inch display panel offering a 1080p resolution and a 165 Hz refresh rate. This turns the side of the case into a fully functional screen, creating some unusual and exciting possibilities for PC builders.
Users could run the built-in display as a primary monitor in a compact gaming setup, essentially gaming directly on the PC case itself. More realistically, many users may prefer to use it as a secondary display for system monitoring, chat windows, media controls, streaming tools, timelines, or social feeds. Since the panel uses a 16:10 format, it could be especially useful in portrait orientation as an always-on companion screen beside a main monitor.
The case also supports GIGABYTE’s STEALTH series of reverse-connector motherboards. This is important for builders who care about cable management, as reverse-connector designs help hide cables behind the motherboard tray. The result is a much cleaner interior layout, especially when paired with a case that includes a display side panel and is likely to draw extra attention.
Pricing for the AORUS ELITE liquid coolers has not been officially detailed, but GIGABYTE’s previous high-end AIO cooler offerings give a rough idea of where the new models may land. If the ELITE series launches around the same range as earlier premium AORUS liquid coolers, it could sit near the upper end of the AIO market. However, that also means GIGABYTE will need to rely heavily on the cooler’s RGB fan design, Edge View display, and overall build quality to stand out against competitors offering larger pump screens at similar prices.
The AORUS C510 Glass Infinity is harder to predict. GIGABYTE does not have many directly comparable cases with integrated display panels, so pricing remains unclear. Based on similar screen-equipped PC cases already on the market, the C510 could potentially fall somewhere in the $250 to $350 range. If it does, it may become an appealing option for enthusiasts who want a compact case with a built-in high-refresh display and strong cable-management support.
With the AORUS ELITE liquid coolers and the C510 Glass Infinity case, GIGABYTE is clearly targeting PC builders who want more than standard hardware. The coolers bring real-time system monitoring and detailed RGB lighting into a familiar AIO format, while the case introduces a more experimental design with its 16-inch side display. For gamers, streamers, and custom PC enthusiasts, these new AORUS products could offer fresh ways to make a build both functional and visually distinctive.
