Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF Wireless Reverse,Black

The Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF Wireless Reverse, Black is a revolutionary product that redefines the aesthetics and functionality of PC cooling. As a core component of the modern, cable-conscious build, this fan series combines stunning visual effects with an innovative, user-friendly design.¹ With a focus keyphrase on Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF, this article will dive deep into the technical details and extensive benefits that make these fans a must-have for builders and enthusiasts.

A New Era of PC Aesthetics: The Infinity Mirror

At the heart of the Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF‘s appeal is its breathtaking visual design. The fan features an Infinity Mirror effect on both the center hub and the sides of the fan frame.² This is not a simple mirror; it’s a meticulously crafted design with multiple layers spaced just 0.5mm apart, creating a stunning sense of depth and endless reflection.³ This effect is visible from any angle, ensuring your PC build looks spectacular from every viewpoint.⁴

Each fan is equipped with 58 addressable LEDs, strategically placed to illuminate the infinity mirrors, the inner edges of the frame, and the dual side strips.⁵ This allows for three independently controlled lighting zones, giving you an almost infinite number of customization options through the accompanying software.⁶ The result is a vibrant, dynamic light show that you can personalize to match your mood or the rest of your system’s components.

The “Reverse” version of the fan is a game-changer for PC builders who prioritize aesthetics. A common dilemma in PC building is the choice between optimal airflow and a clean look. Traditional fans, when used as intake, show the less visually appealing backside of the fan. The Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF Wireless Reverse solves this by flipping the fan blades, allowing the fan to pull air into the case while still displaying the mesmerizing infinity mirror effect on the front.⁷ This is a crucial innovation for builders aiming for a clean, unified look.

Technical Excellence: Wireless and Modular Design

Lian Li has always been at the forefront of modular fan design, and the SL-INF Wireless takes this a step further. The fans feature an updated pin-to-pad interlocking mechanism that allows you to daisy-chain up to four fans together with a single, unified connection.⁸ This dramatically simplifies the building process and reduces the number of cables, making for a cleaner and less cluttered interior.⁹

The “Wireless” aspect of this fan series is truly innovative. The included controller (available in the 3-pack) utilizes a 2.4 GHz wireless signal to communicate with a compact receiver.¹⁰ This eliminates the need for a multitude of separate RGB and PWM cables, as the single receiver handles all the power and control for an entire cluster of fans.¹¹ This is a massive benefit for cable management, especially in complex builds with many fans.¹² The receiver connects to the motherboard via an internal USB header and a 4-pin PWM header.¹³

The Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF is not just about looks; it’s also a high-performance cooling solution.¹⁴ The fan features a Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB), which is known for its superior durability, smooth operation, and low noise levels.¹⁵ With a fan speed range from 0 to 2200 RPM, the fan can deliver a powerful airflow of up to 69.7 CFM and a static pressure of 2.2 mmH2O.¹⁶ This makes it an excellent choice for both case cooling and for mounting on radiators, ensuring your CPU and GPU stay cool under pressure.

Intuitive Control and Software Integration

The lighting and fan speed of the Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF are controlled through the powerful and user-friendly L-Connect 3 software.¹⁷ This software is the central hub for all Lian Li peripherals, allowing you to synchronize lighting effects across your fans, LED strips, and even AIO coolers.¹⁸ The software offers a real-time preview of your lighting effects, making customization a breeze.¹⁹

With L-Connect 3, you can easily set custom fan curves, enabling a completely silent operation at low temperatures with the Start/Stop fan mode.²⁰ The software’s intuitive interface lets you quickly change effects, colors, and brightness, giving you complete creative control over your system’s aesthetic.²¹ The wireless control feature simplifies this even further, allowing you to manage your fans from a distance without opening your case.²²

The Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF also supports motherboard sync, allowing you to control the lighting directly from your motherboard’s software, such as ASUS Aura Sync or MSI Mystic Light.²³ This gives you the flexibility to choose the control method that works best for your setup. The ease of installation, combined with the powerful software, makes the entire user experience seamless and enjoyable.

Benefits of Use: A Builder’s Dream

The Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF offers a multitude of benefits for PC builders and enthusiasts.²⁴ The most significant is the dramatic reduction in cable clutter.²⁵ A typical three-fan setup can have as many as six or more cables (for power and RGB), but with the UNI FAN system, you only need a single cable running from the fan cluster to the wireless receiver. This results in a cleaner, more professional-looking build.

The Wireless Reverse model specifically addresses the age-old problem of case aesthetics. By providing a fan that can be used as an intake while showing its most visually appealing side, it opens up new possibilities for build designs. You no longer have to sacrifice good airflow for a clean look, or vice versa. The sleek black color of the fan blends seamlessly into most builds, and the infinity mirror provides the perfect highlight.²⁶

In summary, the Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF Wireless Reverse, Black is a premium cooling solution that elevates your PC build to an art form. Its patented daisy-chain design, stunning infinity mirror lighting, and wireless control make it one of the most innovative fans on the market.²⁷ For anyone looking to build a high-performance, visually striking, and cable-managed PC, the Lian Li UNI FAN SL-INF is a peerless choice that delivers on both aesthetics and technical performance.
