Asus Unveils Gaming PC Featuring Holographic Fans for a Stunning Visual Experience

Asus has unveiled its latest ROG G100 prebuilt gaming PC at CES 2026, and it’s packed with some impressive features. This rig boasts three dedicated cooling zones, a massive AIO cooler, and the capability to support up to an RTX 5090 and an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D. But the standout feature? It comes equipped with holographic fans.

Asus claims this is the first prebuilt gaming PC to incorporate a holographic fan system. Holographic fans started making waves about a year ago, with products like the Coolify HoloFan demonstrating that RGB isn’t the only way to enhance your PC’s airflow aesthetics. However, no prebuilt system has featured these fans until now. If any brand was going to take the plunge, it would be Asus, known for its innovative designs like decorative screens on laptop lids and controllers.

So, what exactly is a holographic fan? Essentially, it’s a fan that projects holograms using advanced lighting and projection techniques while it operates. With the right software, you can program it to display images, videos, GIFs, logos, or anything else you can imagine. It’s similar to an AIO cooler with an LCD display on the pump head, but this could revolutionize the visual appeal of your PC’s front panel.

Asus has dubbed this holographic system the AniMe: Holo, and as far as I know, this technology isn’t present in any of the brand’s other cooling products, unless they’ve hinted at future releases at CES. The G100 features two larger fans at the front and an additional larger fan on the transparent side panel, allowing you to showcase your own designs.

In terms of cooling innovation, Asus has also integrated what it claims is the “world’s first” 420mm ROG AIO cooler into this prebuilt machine. The build is adorned with plenty of RGB logos at the top, giving it a customizable and vibrant aesthetic.

Similar to the Corsair Air 5400 announced last October, the new Asus ROG G1000 features three dedicated cooling zones within its chassis: one for the CPU, one for the GPU and other motherboard components, and one for the PSU. While I have some reservations about this type of case from a building perspective, it seems well-suited for a prebuilt machine that won’t be frequently tinkered with. These unconventional cases can be less confusing to work with compared to starting from scratch, and quirky designs can be effective in prebuilt PCs, much like the Acer Predator Orion X.

It might seem a bit odd to focus on such unique design elements in a PC capable of housing an overclocked RTX 5090. Configurations of the G1000 with that GPU will undoubtedly come with a hefty price tag, but it’s clear that this PC is aimed at the most demanding users.
