Our next stop at CES 2023 was MSI’s huge ballroom. Here we saw almost everything they had to offer. From laptops to monitors to keyboards and graphics cards, they had something to show off in almost every category. While we won’t cover everything here, we will show some highlights of the PCIe 5.0 storage (Spatium M570/M570 Pro), GK71 keyboard with Blue switches, Titan, Raider, and Stealth laptops, and more.
Also on the floor were the new PCIe 5.0 power supplies from the MEG line, the Prospect 100R chassis with a touch screen on top, and a hinged glass panel.

You can read all the details on the MSI website and product pages for the hardware, but here’s a direct link to their CES 2023 details.
Joe started writing around 2010 for Overclockers.com covering the latest news and reviews that include video cards, motherboards, storage and processors. In 2018, he went ‘pro’ writing for Anandtech.com covering news and motherboards. Eventually, he landed at Tom’s Hardware where he wrote news, covered graphic card reviews, and currently writes motherboard reviews. If you can’t find him benchmarking and gathering data, Joe can be found working on his website (Overclockers.com), supporting his two kids in athletics, hanging out with his wife catching up on Game of Thrones, watching sports (Go Browns/Guardians/Cavs/Buckeyes!), or playing PUBG on PC.
On the last day we were at CES, we had a chance to hit the show floor to see all the cool things CES 2023 offers. While the name of the game is automation and AI, there were a lot of awesome exhibits. From robotics to ICs, to 8K monitors and more, it was here.
MSI recently reached out to us to see if we would be interested in reviewing its improved version of the Gungnir mid-tower chassis. MSI’s latest model, the Gungnir 120R, boasts a new front panel allowing for enhanced airflow. While the original Gungnir 110R resulted in adequate cooling, MSI recognized that improvements were possible with only a slight facelift. In this review, we will highlight the differences in the new Gungnir 120R while referencing our original review of the 110R.
Yes, looking at the new logo, I have only one question "why?".
I feel like MSI is working much more on expanding its product portfolio than improving motherboards or graphics cards. They improve monitors, laptops, and everything else, while motherboards and graphics cards are somehow pretty average recently.
Could it be that average motherboards and graphics cards sell the most and are most profitable?
I agree tho. My 3080 Gaming X Trio wasn't anything special and was loud. For $760 I expected a cooling system that didn't scream during games. Replacing that card ended the excess noise.

By far. The flagships and Halos don't sell a ton... the mid-range and budget tends to, absolutely.

That's weird. Testing shows them as one of the quieter around...maybe it was a tone, or you're on the cooler BIOS? Not sure, but it tested well at TPU, especially on the silent BIOS.
It is down and my mic is right next to my mouth to make sure I get picked up. I even had the PC to my left so the the noise was directed away from me. And my case has sound proofing everywhere.
