Over the last two days, we have been on the show floor for several hours, covering quite a bit of the Las Vegas Convention Center. We didn’t cover everything, but we saw a lot of what they had to offer. From Sony and LG to OEMs and ODMs from all over the planet (but especially Asia), we saw it here.
Our next stop was AMD, but in this case, we didn’t have a meeting scheduled, so it was more of a self-guided tour. Surprisingly, we didn’t hear much of anything about RDNA 4 graphics cards but heard a lot about new desktop CPUs like the long-awaited 9900X3D and 9950X3D chips, Ai PCs, and enterprise-class Ai hardware. We did spy a couple of systems running the new GPUs, several of them, different brands, up on a shelf.
Our first appointment on Day 2 landed us at the Waldorf Astoria with Corsair. Inside the suite we had a chance to look at several permutations of the 4000D Modular chassis, the Xeneon Edge 14.5-inch touchscreen monitor (mount in your chassis or standalone), some decorative tops for Dominator RAM, and some other cool items.
DATA showcased a range of upcoming hardware slated for release throughout 2025, including PC cases, fans, power supplies, RAM, and other components. Among the highlights were the new Invader X (available in both Mini and Pro versions), the Valor Air Nano, and the Starker BTF chassis. For users seeking performance without excessive RGB lighting, the updated Ventoo Pro 120mm fans offer strong airflow with relatively quiet operation.
The next stop on the not-so-mysterious mystery tour lands again in a hotel suite, but this time at the Venitian. Cherry showed off a few new wares, including the MX 8.3 TKL, MX 10.1 wireless keyboards, and even a hot-swappable mechanical keyboard for the office (KW 300 MX) and its low-profile twin (KC 500 MX LP). Pricing wasn’t revealed, but we’ll see the H3 Wireless headset in 1Q 2025, with the others following in 2Q.
BIOSTAR motherboards are not often presented on Overclockers, so it’s even more interesting to see what the latest generation with Intel chipsets offers. We have received the highest motherboard with the Z890 chipset, Valkyrie, which promises great results, unique features, and premium components. You can find out how the new flagship model performs in our review.
