ASUS announces ROG G1000 desktop with AniMe Holo “holographic” fan module and 420mm AIO cooling

ASUS ROG G1000 desktop has holographic fan

ASUS is bringing a new flagship prebuilt desktop to CES 2026 with the ROG G1000, a full-tower system that mixes high-end gaming hardware with a new visual feature called AniMe Holo. ASUS describes it as a holographic fan module that can project customizable hologram-style images inside the system.

AniMe Holo is housed in a separate chamber with a hinged door design. ASUS says this layout keeps the holographic module from disrupting airflow to the core components, while also helping reduce noise by limiting vibration from the Holo system. Cooling for the main platform is handled by what ASUS calls the ROG Thermal Atrium, which routes fresh air through a 420mm AIO liquid cooler with three fans, using isolated airflow paths aimed at keeping CPU thermals stable during long gaming sessions.

On the hardware side, ASUS lists multiple GPU options, including ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 or RTX 5080, ROG Strix GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, or an AMD Radeon 9070 XT. The configuration can scale up to 128GB of DDR5 memory and up to a 4TB PCIe 5.0 SSD. The chassis is a 104L ATX tower, with ASUS saying the extra volume improves airflow headroom, supports larger cooling hardware, and makes servicing easier.

ASUS is also leaning into tuning and lighting control through Armoury Crate and Aura Sync, letting owners sync RGB across the GPU, fans, liquid-cooling blocks, and the AniMe Holo module. A dedicated “Fan Key” is included for a one-touch cooling boost when the system needs extra thermal headroom.
