Hyte has been showing a prototype AIO cooler at Computex that wraps the radiator fans in a transparent shroud. The see-through housing reveals the radiator fins, and the pump cap features RGB that spins around, making the pump appear lit from multiple angles.

The company says it aims to start the cooler at $100, though it was not clear whether that would be for the triple-fan model on display or a two-fan 240 mm version; the demo units have emphasized the three-fan layout. For context, the Cooler Master MasterLiquid Core II has an MSRP of $100 but is currently selling for $120 at Amazon.

How much the transparent shroud adds to a build will depend on installation—head-on views will mostly show the radiator, while side-on views will showcase the RGB fans, which may be the point. Ultimately the cooler’s appeal will come down to performance, and Hyte’s previous products have delivered mixed results, so this prototype will need to be judged on its own merits.
