AeroCool's 2026 CES Lineup: Power, Cooling, and Fan Innovations
At the 2026 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), AeroCool presented a significant expansion of its product offerings focused on delivering robust cooling performance and reliable power solutions for modern PC builds. The company’s display showcased advancements across several key categories, signaling a commitment to meeting the demands of high-performance computing.
Smart PSU Series – Efficiency and Flexibility
The initial focus centered around the Smart G1 series of power supplies. These units were engineered to align with the latest ATX 3.1 standard, offering users a dependable foundation for their systems. Available in capacities up to 1000W, the Smart G1 incorporates a 12V-2x6 (600W) connector for enhanced flexibility. Notably, each cable is individually sleeved and finished in black, contributing to a clean aesthetic within a build.
Two distinct models were presented: The ‘Smart’ variant provides fixed cabling for simplified builds, while the ‘Premier’ model offers full modularity. The Premier G1 further elevates performance with Cybenetics Platinum certification – signifying superior energy efficiency – and incorporates a zero-RPM fan mode at lower speeds, minimizing noise levels.
Forge Radiator Fans – Optimized Cooling Performance
AeroCool’s Forge series of radiator fans represents a significant step forward in cooling technology. Designed for daisy-chain configurations, these fans prioritize static pressure delivery thanks to their innovative impeller design. While precise specifications remain under wraps, AeroCool emphasizes the use of a long-lifespan fluid dynamic bearing and targets high performance without compromising on noise levels – details expected to be fully revealed closer to launch.
Icicle A-Series CPU Coolers – Integrated Monitoring
Complementing the cooling solutions are the Icicle A-series tower CPU coolers. The AL40 Digi model stands out with its four 6mm copper heat pipe stack, a single 120mm fan and a built-in digital display. This display provides real-time monitoring of key metrics including CPU temperature, CPU utilization, and fan speed, all pulled directly from ACPI data. The AL40 Digi is rated to handle thermal loads up to 230W and is available in both black and white finishes.
