As the Taiwanese celebration continues to open its doors to drooling journalists and influencers, our experts in Tom's Guide will help you discover everything from some really exciting, fabulously designed and awesome custom-built PCs to AI assistants that can prove very useful to gamers Computex2024 gives you a glimpse into the future
On Day Computex2, we saw an incredibly advanced Wi-Fi7 router, witnessed the potential computing power of the Intel Lunar Lake chip, and it's a huge avatar-themed rom
As for Day 3, we've got an incredible racing sim cockpit, the mighty Asus ROG We've been testing a gaming laptop that can challenge the Zephyrus G14 and a very spacious mid-tower case No, really
Here are some of the most exciting products we've seen at Computex2024Day3
The ROG Zephyrus G14 (2024) is one of the best gaming laptops we have tested so far in Tom's Guide 1 But the beauty of this OLED starts at top1,599 and goes up to UP4070 in the top-end RTX2,199, so it's actually a viable option if you're a hardcore gamer with a large consumption income
Enter Asus TUF Gaming A14: The first 14-inch gaming laptop the company has ever made Our own Jason England practices this impressive system on the Computex show floor today and thinks it's a machine that can give the latest G14 a real run for its money, as it looks like it can beat its price-to-performance ratio sweeter than the zephyrus The Asus TUF Gaming A14 is powered by AMD Ryzen9AI HX370 and Nvidia GeForce RTX4070GPU, but it's the AI feature that makes Asus laptops sweat This new TUF model takes advantage of AMD's Ryzen AI300 series chips and offers much better performance when working on AI tasks than the G14
The only drawback It uses an IPS display, unlike the luxurious OLED screen that makes the game in the G14 special Still, according to Jason, the A14 feels great to type While we picked up Nvidia's Project G-Assist earlier this week, Jason is actually using this seriously clever AI agent specifically designed to help with selected video games
Jason is using G-Assist in Ark: Survival Ascended and thinks it could be huge for accessibility going forward Through text and voice prompts, G-Assist can provide useful in-game advice, such as teaching dinosaurs what is dangerous (hint: one with pointy teeth) or suggesting the best early weapons to use in survival sims This exciting new AI model is trained to draw data directly from the official Ark wiki, so you can do this
G-Assist can also analyze in-game performance to improve frame rates and power efficiency We can't wait for this AI assistant to be incorporated into more PC games in the future
Is it a bird? Is it an airplane? Wait, it's actually Wolverine stuck in a super-flashy mid-tower PC case The point is that there is so much space in this tower of power that you can stick a plastic superhero in the glass display area on the front of the FV270RGB
because Skytech Gaming's almost ridiculous and flashy case is mainly built using reinforced curved panoramic glass It offers such a great level of transparency An angled cooling fan should ensure that the RTX4090 does not melt even poor Wolvey
Skytech Gaming FV270RGB (10 times fasterIt is compatible with E-ATX motherboards, has enough space to house 420mm GPUs and can be mounted horizontally or vertically
Another gadget just above Jason's alley As Thermaltake describes it, "The GR500 is a comprehensive racing simulator cockpit designed for professional and immersive gaming environments The frame is made from sturdy aluminum profile and steel structure, providing excellent rigidity and stability"So basically, if you love racing Sims, it looks like a great kit
This puppy is clearly designed to be comfortable in mind, too Not only is it equipped with an adjustable steering wheel, it also allows you to make reclining adjustments to the chair during EA's f1 24 marathon session
Data Image is a company that targets markets that are not automatically considered when it comes to state-of-the-art display technology This year's Computex has been showing off a variety of vibrant displays designed to be used in the car/motorcycle, boat and medical industries
We took a snap of some cool displays, 1 of which is a circular one that acts as a GPS installed on an Indian motorcycle and the other 1 is a "special vehicle instrument cluster" that you can see above, which essentially looks like the most fantastic car dash you can imagine It's a good idea
Perhaps the final retail product will be reduced in size
What a nice looking little mechanical keyboard Those eye-catching, extra colorful keys are given a further wow factor in per-key RGB lighting Delight supports both Mac and Windows machines and boasts a handy LED screen and shortcut knob, but its 75% form factor allows cramped desks and your Mistel peripherals to be connected to a laptop, MacBook or desktop via the included 24GHz wireless dongle or Bluetooth It's a good idea
Many RGB I apologize if the image above has just charred the cornea Wherever you stand on RGB lighting, there's no denying that Palit's RTX4090 powered rig is a monster Not only is Neptunus powered by the world's fastest consumer GPU, Team Green's graphics card beast is also powered by Intel's Core i1-9-1400k process, one of the best gaming Cpus on the planet, which is also water cooled and allows users to place the GPU verticallyThis is always an eye-catching bonus
Talk about monitors with serious intelligence The Asus ZenScreen Smart MS27UC is a specially built display that allows you to connect almost any device you can think of It may not be a toaster Miracast Wireless Screen Mirroring has a USB-C port and DisplayPort14 and HDMI20 connection, it should also be a doddle to connect this monitor to a laptop or PC
Oh, the fact that it has a storage sleeve on the back that can accommodate the keyboard Now, it's just showing off
The MS27UC also has built-in Google TV support, so you don't even have to connect your device to zenscreen to entertain
