LIAN LI has come up with something pretty neat for PC builders, which is the new 8.8″ Universal Screen (US88v1). It’s basically a slim USB-powered secondary display that doesn’t touch your GPU’s outputs, yet gives you a crisp 1920×480 IPS panel running at 60Hz with 500 nits of brightness. Perfect for real-time system monitoring, looping videos, or just showing off custom visuals inside your rig.
Instead of hogging a display port from your graphics card, this one hooks up through USB with a 9-pin motherboard header or a Type-A extension, enabling a plug-and-play installation while completely independent from your main setup, so you can keep your GPU free for actual gaming.
It also supports tilt, rotation, vertical and horizontal alignment, plus height adjustments, and you can stick it on 120mm or 140mm fan frames with the usual screws, attach it to a flat surface with an adhesive pad, or even shift the LCD mount to three different positions for the best angle inside your case.
For more flairs, there’s a built-in ring of diffused ARGB lighting around the display, all synced through L-Connect 3. From there, you can upload your own images or clips, switch display modes, and match the lighting effects with the rest of your system.
