Refresh
MSI's gaming handheld strikes first with AMD!
We headed into Computex 2025 believing we'd finally see the Asus ROG Ally 2 (with a dedicated Xbox button) boasting the hugely anticipated AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme, but it turns out the MSI Claw A8 beat it to the punch.
In case you missed it, AMD's Ryzen Z2 Extreme is set to deliver a significant bump in performance to gaming handhelds, and we'll finally see it firsthand with the new Claw A8. Oh, and it comes with up to 24GB of RAM, an 8-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and an 80Wh battery for good measure.
We'll be keeping an eye out for a better look at the handheld while we're on the ground, so stay tuned!
It's Day one (officially)!
Good morning from Taipei! There's already been so much news at Computex that it may be weird hearing me say it's officially day one today. The exhibition center opens and we get to try all the latest and greatest in the world of computing.
Today is going to be a significant one for gaming handhelds, laptops and all kinds of brand new tech, so keep it locked on Tom's Guide as we will be your tour guides through it all.
Here's everything we've talked about so far:
- MSI Claw A8 packs an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme — the rumors were true
- I pixel-peeped the world’s fastest gaming monitor — after testing 610Hz, real-life feels laggy
- Meet the weirdest gaming PC I’ve ever seen — desktop GPU with a laptop CPU!?
- I just tried Acer’s surprising smart ring, and it gives the Oura ring a run for its money
- I played 5 games on the RTX 5060 — is this budget GPU actually enough?
The budget gaming laptop to beat
Asus had a lot of exciting announcements at Computex 2025, but easily our favorite is this upgraded Asus TUF A14 gaming laptop. We've been eagerly waiting for Asus to update its TUF line-up of budget gaming laptops, and this one does not disappoint with its improved thermals, AI-powered upgrades, and up to an Nvidia RTX 5060 GPU.

Nvidia opens NVLink to competitive processors
Nvidia made it clear during its presentation that it's betting big on AI. The company has launched a new version of its NVLink tech called NVLink Fusion to build powerful custom AI systems with multiple chips linked together. The program was previously closed to chips made by Nvidia, but now customers and chip designers can use non-Nvidia central processing units and graphics processing units together with Nvidia’s products and its NVLink.
“NVLink fusion is so that you can build semi-custom AI infrastructure, not just semi-custom chips,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said at Computex 2025 in Taiwan. With NVLink Fusion, AI infrastructures can combine Nvidia processors with different CPUs and application-specific integrated circuits. “In any case, you have the benefit of using the NV link infrastructure and the NV link ecosystem," Huang said.
Our favorite gaming laptop just got even better
Asus has finally refreshed the budget TUF gaming lineup with improved thermals, more power and up to an Nvidia RTX 5060 GPU. We went hands-on with the new Asus TUF A14 at Computex 2025, and it's shaping up to be the best budget gaming laptop to beat. Check out our impressions below.

Nvidia RTX 5060 graphics card chaos
@tomsguide ♬ original sound - Tom’s Guide
Nvidia announced during Computex 2025 that its RTX 5060 is going on sale today, both in desktop and laptop GPU form, promising frugal buyers frame rates in the 100s for the 100-plus games that support its DLSS 4 optimization techniques.
But stock is selling fast. Be sure to keep an eye on our guide to buying an RTX 5060 to snag yours while you can.
Howdy! Alyse Stanley in Chicago taking over our Computex live blog for a bit, and the first piece of news I have for you is that Project G-Assist, Nvidia's handy locally-run AI digital assistant for PCs, is getting a serious upgrade. Tools for developers to build their own plugins are now publicly available, so we should see even more functionality emerge. It definitely has the scope to be a big deal for fans of the best PC games.
Asus' limited edition DOOM RTX 5080 GPU
@tomsguide ♬ original sound - Tom’s Guide
While we wait for the RTX 5060 cards to drop, we've been looking at this monster of a machine — the limited-edition Nvidia RTX 5080 GPU that Asus has created to mark the launch of Doom: The Dark Ages. Only 666 units will ever exist.
My colleague Darragh Murphy has spent a little time with Doom on both an MSI Stealth A16 AI+ with an RTX 5070 Ti and an Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 with an RTX 5080. Find out how he got on when he put them to the test.

MSI's super smart new QD-OLED panel
Let's stick with monitors for a second. MSI has shown off its new MPG 271QR QD-OLED X50 gaming monitor at Computex which uses AI smarts to prevent burn-in.
The company calls it the "AI Care Sensor" and it enables “real-time human detection, dynamically adjusting settings to protect the monitor and boost efficiency.”
Basically, there’s an always-on CMOS sensor built into the bezel that captures images every 0.2 seconds. This is doing two things – real-time human detection so it can dim or even power down when you leave, and it can even analyze the color hue of the light in your room and reduce blue light to match. Clever!
The fastest monitor...in the world
This right here is the Asus ROG Strix Ace XG248QSG and it's committed to one thing and one thing only: being as fast as possible with a refresh rate 100 times quicker than the average human can blink. That's right, it has a refresh rate of up to 610Hz.
We got some eyes-on time with it at Computex and suffice to say, this thing will probably be north of a grand when we finally learn the price.
Meet the Asus TUF Gaming T500
Asus has arrived at Computex with this mongrel of a machine: it's the TUF Gaming T500 desktop that pairs an Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti desktop GPU with an Intel Core i7-13620H laptop CPU.
A laptop CPU and a desktop GPU? There's no explanation as to why Asus has opted for an Intel mobile processor in the TUF Gaming T500, but our computing editor Darragh Murphy believes it'll have something to do with its cost.
"While there's no official word on when it will be available yet, this Asus desktop is sure to cater towards budget gaming," Darragh says.

Intel's new Arc Pro GPUs announced
Back to business now and Intel has unveiled a new lineup of GPUs aimed at professionals and developers.
The Arc Pro B60 and B50 GPUs are based on the Xe2 architecture and feature Intel Xe Matrix Extensions (XMX), AI cores and advanced ray tracing units.
Designed for "demanding AI inference workloads and workstation applications", the cards feature 24GB and 16GB of memory respectively and multi-GPU scalability.
Ready to ROG n' roll
Here's Team TG (from left: Paul, Jason and Anthony) at Asus HQ in Taiwan after going hands-on with the brand's entire new range. I'm getting strong rock-rap album cover vibes from this picture.
Expect plenty of thoughts from them on all of Asus' new tech over the next couple of days and make sure you're checking out our TikTok for fresh videos straight from Computex as the team get onto the show floor tomorrow.
Asus ROG just gave us the goods
Well, Asus' ROG brand has just gone large at Computex 2025 with details about all its next-gen gaming laptops.
The company unveiled the next-gen ROG Zephyrus, ROG Strix and TUF lineups. Let's dive into what's available.
The new ROG Zephyrus G14 is that sleek, silver beast that's just a scant 0.63-inches thin but packs an AMD Ryzen AI 9 270 CPU alongside an RTX 5060 GPU, up to 16GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD.
The ROG Strix G16 and G18 come with a choice of either an Intel Core Ultra 9 Processor 275HX or AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX Processor. They'll both get an Nvidia RTX GPU, up to 32GB of RAM and that sweet ROG NEbula Display with up to a 240Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time.
Finally, there's a big announcement from the TUF side of things. The TUF Gaming A18 marks the first TUF-branded 18-inch gaming laptop from the brand and it'll boast an AMD Ryzen 7 260, RTX 5060 GPU, up to 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and 1TB of storage. Meanwhile, the TUF Gaming F16, A16 and A14 are also getting refreshes.
Those are just the laptops. We've also got pre-built gaming PCs and some handheld news from Asus as well...
Watch Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's full keynote
The Tom's Guide team was present at Nvidia's Computex keynote earlier today, where CEO Jensen Huang took to the stage to officially reveal the RTX 5060 — along with a lot of other stuff.
We're tracking where to buy the RTX 5060 on a separate live blog to help you secure yours, but if you want to see some of the other stuff Huang spoke about (there was a lot of AI) then the entire keynote is now available to view below.
Probably the coolest part is Huang's digital background which, he said, had nine out of every 10 frames generated by DLSS.

HP announces new OmniBook 5 AI-powered laptops at Computex
Hi there everyone, Jeff Parsons in London taking over our Computex live blog for awhile and the first piece of news I have to bring you is a couple of new AI-powered laptops from HP, just announced at Computex.
The HP OmniBook 5 Series with Snapdragon arrive with either a 14-inch or 16-inch 2K OLED display, Snapdragon X or X Plus processors offering up a 45 TOPS NPU powering the AI performance. These are Copilot+ PCs so you'll get features like Recall (preview), Click-to-Do (preview), improved Windows Search and Cocreator in Paint. Plus HP's own AI Companion.
HP promises up to 34 hours of battery life and impressive fast charge capabilities that brings the battery up to 50% in 30 minutes with a 65W mini adapter.
Pricing for the 14-inch model starts at $799 while the 16-inch model starts at $849. Both are expected to be available in July.
Here's your first glimpse of Intel Core Ultra 300 series
I sweat that with every new generation of Intel chip, the company's naming conventions sound more and more like Mario Kart levels...want proof? OK then.
Intel has given Tom's Hardware a tease of its upcoming Panther Lake Core Ultra 300 series CPUs — launching early 2026. Packing Cougar Cove performance cores and Darkmont efficiency cores, this looks set to get the next generation iGPU too.
Now, as we already know, the graphics on these Intel chips have already been surprisingly impressive, so to get the next-gen architecture is exciting to say the least!
Snapdragon X2 coming to Summit in September? Looks like it!
So right at the end of the Qualcomm keynote, Cristiano Amon confirmed that "the revolution continues at Summit 2025." Basically, he just said that the Snapdragon X2 is set to launch in September!
Meanwhile, Lenovo has just spoken about it's AI-interconnected ecosystem, and how it's working when built around Snapdragon! Things like fast sharing.
Snapdragon? More like Snoozedragon
Sorry, that felt mean. But we're deep into enterprise use cases here for AI — including agentic features like creating reports and uniting datapoints collected from many sources.
"This is going to fundamentally change how we do work," Amon says.
They should stop talking about AI and talk about battery life
Do you see that number next to the 16-inch Omnibook 5? Up to 34 hours!? Who cares about AI features when your laptop could last more than a literal day!!
BREAKING: DLSS 4 is in over 125 games and apps — 10 more coming soon including Portal!
The cake is most definitely not a lie anymore. Portal with RTX has just received a huge visual upgrade — DLSS 4 and all the transformer model visual smoothness of multi-frame generation are now available in an update.
On top of that, RTX Neural Radiance Cache is heading on over too. This could be good news for 5060 players, as the essential purpose is to use neural processing techniques to render light sources and dramatically reduce the size of them on the video memory of a GPU.
This is just one of nine games set to attend the DLSS 4 party:
- Crimson Desert
- F1 25
- FBC Firebreak
- Inzoi
- Light of Motiram
- Mindseye
- Roadcraft
- Splitgate
- Wuchang: Fallen Feathers
One thing you don't really realize until you see it all in front of you is just how many places Snapdragon is, and how many gadgets Qualcomm is in around you.
In a time where every company is looking for that same level of interoperability that you see between Apple devices, Qualcomm is probably in the best place to take Cupertino on.
BREAKING: Doom: The Dark Ages will melt your Nvidia GPU with Path Tracing and DLSS Ray Reconstruction in June
Image 1 of 2
Just in time for Nvidia’s RTX 5060, Doom: The Dark Ages is getting two significant upgrades. It was already a lightning quick performer and a brutally gorgeous game too, but that’s not enough for ID games.
Path tracing is the net big thing over the ray tracing that we’ve seen over the past few years — rather than making the light sources themselves and a couple of reflections look pretty, path tracing calculates every single light source reflection off every surface.
It’s super demanding, and it’s looking incredible in Doom. Fingers crossed it is optimized well. To optimize with that, though, Nvidia’s DLSS Ray Reconstruction is coming to the game.
Basically, instead of using the rendering cores and video memory to brute force the reflections, the AI cores are pretty good at ray and path tracing calculations, so machine-learned trickery is the way to go.
Now, Asus has taken the stage to talk about its partnership with Qualcomm. If they could make the fantastic Asus Zenbook A14 cheaper, that would be splendid!
One of the more pesky frustrations with Snapdragon X Elite has always been the app compatibility. Sure, there's an emulator for x86 apps, but it's always been slower and less power efficient.
Now, that seems to be fading away, as 750 apps are now native to X, and 1,400 games can be played — including Fortnite coming to the platform!
Microsoft's CEO Satya Nadella stopped by (virtually) to big up Snapdragon-armed Copilot+ PCs too! Expect many more AI features to get announced for Windows at Microsoft Build 2025.
Thanks for the shout-out, Qualcomm!
"There will be no focus on chip announcements."
Well, this was a rather forboding quote from Amon. X2 seems unlikely...
Cristiano Amon is here, and turns out this is a significant year for Qualcomm as a whole with its 40th anniversary kicking off.
I wonder how they'll celebrate.
The show has started! James Huang of the Taiwanese trade council has come out to discuss how significant this show will be for the future of phones and computing!
We're a little delayed starting this one! Let's see what Qualcomm's got in store
Our own Darragh Murphy is in the crowd for this one, and I'll be your tour guide of everything Qualcomm has to say!
What did (and didn't) Nvidia announce?
So we got a lot going on there — plenty of dense information when it comes to enterprise computing, AI and robotics, so let's try to break it all down:
- The DGX Spark mini AI supercomputer is set to launch in July.
- Not only that, but there is an AI-First DGX motherboard that you could build one of your own from too — the DGX station offers up to 20 petaflops of AI performance (bear in mind we're all still talking about tereaflops in your standard PCs).
- You can now train robots by simply showing it once and utilizing text prompts to deliver on tasks. It's called Gr00t dreams and it looks incredibly smart
- And finally, there is the new RTX Pro server for companies to use to boost their AI performance dramatically. 1.7x faster than the H100s you see a lot of them using.
But one thing Nvidia didn't announce is the rumored new Arm CPU. I thought this was going to be the "one last thing," but it never came. That leaves Qualcomm with a pretty big opportunity here to deliver something significant in the form of a Snapdragon X2 tease.
Under construction
On the show floor at Computex, things are already super busy with plenty of last-minute construction underway.
We still got a chance to check out Asus, MSI, Acer and loads of other companies ' booths while getting a sneak peak at some cool new monitors, desktops, laptops, keyboards and other cool new tech.
When we come back tomorrow bright and early, everything will be ready for the first official day of Computex 2025.
And it's over! We'll post a wrap up soon of everything announced.
Nvidia Constellation!! A new office is opening in Taipei, and no doubt this is a great choice to bring the company closer to its respective chipmakers. Huge cheers in the hometown crowd.
Nvidia is even using the simulation of Omniverse to effectively run cities in Taiwan!
Robots will be the next multi-trillion dollar industry, but it will take a lot. But Huang believes Nvidia's robotics division is the one that's able to do it, and that's simply due to scalability. So, little robots in our kitchens doing odd jobs soon? I'll wait and see.
We got a taste of Groot during GTC 2025, and now we're seeing what Groot Dreams can do for pre- and post-training for robots, along with 3D action trajectories for robots to learn human-like actions!
What I find interesting is how the Nvidia Isaac Groot platform is using simulations for robots to work, like walking through particles to simulate how it would walk in real life. Isaac Groot is also open source for anyone to use!
Now we're onto robots! And the ability to "learn to be a good robot." Huang talks about the Newton engine, which will be available in July. And we're getting a look at how it can "bring these robots to life."
Now Huang talks about its open AI models, with an example of Vast using the Nvidia blueprint to build its own AI
Here's a look at the RTX PRO enterprise server. This is a computer for AI agents, and it aims to power through IT infrastructures. And yes, Crysis works on here, too.
DGX Spark, that Project DIGITS Nvidia talked about during CES, will be available in the coming weeks. It's for those who want to have their own supercomputer, and companies will have their own prices for the PC. Everyone can have one for Christmas, Huang says (hoorah!).
Nvidia announces NV Link Fusion. It will aid in building AI infrastructure instead of just singular, specific super chips. It will be able to integrate all companies' custom CPUs and needs, fitting "right into an ecosystem" to incorporate Nvidia GPUs.
Nvidia is now building AI for Taiwan, the first giant AI supercomputer, for the AI infrastructure and ecosystem of Taiwan.
Now a little movie that Jensen (apparently) made for us about how Blackwell is made, from factory to finish, including at TSMC and Foxconn.
The internet as a whole shifts 900 terabits of information per second. In Jensen's words, this NV Link Spine, the backbone of what powers Nvidia's power, moves more traffic with 9 NV Link switches.
Here's a look at the Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip, which came up through the floor as Jensen summoned.
Forget agentic AI (not really), Nvidia is talking about Physical AI. The physical embodiment of this is through robots, using AI to navigate obstacles and using it for thinking. That all needs a lot of computing power, hence Nvidia's Grace Blackwell: (A Thinking Machine).
Those mentioned CUDA libraries can help bring AI to 5G, and even 6G networks, as well as computing, no less. But all through Nvidia!
That's the RTX 5060 in hand, and that background? That's all through graphics.
Now Huang is talking about accelerated computing with its CUDA-X libraries, with it being one of the "many children" under the CEO's wing. As, you know, it isn't all about GPUs, as he claims! This includes Earth-2 for weather analytics, Megatron Dynamo for deep learning and more.
Jensen has an RTX 5060 GPU in his hand and a new MSI laptop with a RTX 5060 in it! We heard it would arrive in May, but now it's looking like a fore-sure launch
What makes Nvidia special is the fusion of its AI and accelerated computing. And now we're getting a sneak peek at what's set to be announced, including graphics that are all artificially made (including a sweet Mercedes).
"We need AI EVERYWHERE!" says Jensen Huang, just like the internet and electricity. That'll be what we all say in 10 years time, he says.
Jensen talks about how Nvidia's roadmap so everyone in the world can go off to build data centers, saying Team Green is an essential for AI all around the globe. Even calling back to the industrial revolution and the makings of electricity. Well, Nvidia wants to be the same.
A GPU chip to AI infrastructure, and "new products that creates new markets" for Nvidia? Yeah, there's something big up Huang's sleeve
"We're going to talk about great partners...and we're at the center of the computer ecosystem." In better news, there are some surprises for us! Nvidia laptop CPU, by chance? Also expect AI and robotics, by the way
And there he is, CEO Jensen Huang on the stage (with some great music). In fact his parents are even in the audience. Nice shout out.
We're starting off with an inspirational speech from an AI face, all about what Nvidia can do with its AI and robotics. Including a special appearance from Blue at Disney!
And here way go!
Wait, is Nvidia using AMD Wi-Fi? Anyway, get ready for all things to kick off in under a minute!
That's our own Jason England at the keynote! And yes, we very much meant that this place was packed.
Get prepared
Only 15 minutes until Nvidia takes to the stage, and the room is piling up (as you can see below). Now's the time to get prepared and put on the livestream (it's currently treating us to some nice music and graphics on display).
Kicking off soon!
@tomsguide ♬ Hard News - DM Production
We're less than 5 minutes away from the livestream kicking off, and we're in clear view of everything that's coming. In the meantime, check out what else Nvidia has in store, including Nvidia Reflex 2, which cuts latency in half (and then some). We tried it out while playing The Finals, and seeing those single digits was a treat.
Bringing a new APU to laptops?
@tomsguide ♬ original sound - Tom’s Guide
We got a look at Nvidia's AI supercomputer, Project DIGITS (now known as DGX Spark), during CES, boasting the GB10 Grace Blackwell superchip. That's expected to set you back around $3,000, but if Nvidia makes its own chip for laptops, there could be a chip here that's far more affordable. That is, if Nvidia announces something along these lines.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang spotted during the pregame!
The pregame is still going strong, but Jensen Huang popped up talking about how long it takes to seat everyone. Apparently, in the ballpark or two hours! And we can confirm considering we arrived their well beforehand just to get a good seat.
Now, Jensen, get prepped for the show — you've got less than an hour!
More on Nvidia robotics
@tomsguide ♬ Minimal for news / news suspense(1169746) - Hiraoka Kotaro
Nvidia clearly has a lot to show off this year, and it's not all to do with RTX 50-series GPUs. During Nvidia GTC 2025, we got a taste of Nvidia Isaac Groot N1, a new model for robotics, and we even got to see this Galbot robot in action serving popcorn not too long ago.
Will Nvidia's robotics be serving more than just popcorn at the keynote? Hoepfully yes, but we'd still like the popcorn, please.
Check out Nvidia's GTC Live Pregame
NVIDIA GTC Live at COMPUTEX Taipei 2025 Pregame - YouTube
While we wait for the keynote to kick off, Nvidia has a "Pregame" chat with Acer and Asus going on right now. It's all about AI, robotics and accelerated computing, and may even offer a sneak peek at what's to come. Plus, a little insight from leaders across Taiwan’s tech can go a long way!
Not long now...
We've now got a spot for the Nvidia keynote, and a great view of everything CEO Jensen Huang has to say for Nvidia's year ahead. Also, we're liking the GTC Taipei 2025 swag that comes with the seat.
We've played games on an RTX 5060
So, how does an RTX 5060 perform? Considering it's Nvidia's lower-end GPU with a $299 price tag and 8GB of GDDR7 VRAM, it may not seem like much, but we've already put it to the test in 5 games at 1080p.
And games run buttery smooth! In our RTX 5060 impressions, we tried Avowed, Cyberpunk 2077, Doom: The Dark Ages, Hogwarts Legacy and Marvel Rivals. We saw triple-digit numbers in terms of FPS, even maintaining over 200 FPS with DLSS 4 and multi-frame generation 4x. And that was even at Ultra Nightmare settings in Doom: The Dark Ages at 1080p.
Of course, when playing games that support Nvidia's AI trickery, this is to be expected. It even achieved just over Nvidia's claimed 149 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077. For a more affordable GPU, this won't be a bad shout. Anyway, we're sure to hear more claims about Nvidia's latest graphics card at the keynote!
Nvidia's latest GPU is coming
We've seen the full suite of Nvidia's RTX 50-series GPUs, including everything from RTX 5090 and RTX 5060 Ti GPUs to RTX 5090 gaming laptops playing Doom: The Dark Ages. But there's still another GPU up Team Green's sleeve: The RTX 5060.
The entry-level GPU is already announced to be released sometime this May, and that sets it up quite nicely for Computex 2025. It will be priced from $299 and come with 8GB of GDDR7 VRAM, but DLSS 4 is expected to take on a lot of the legwork to boost those frame rates.
We're sure more will be revelaed once Jensen Huang takes the stage. We'll be keeping an eye on the latest!
Gearing up for Nvidia...
We're here bright and early for Nvidia's keynote at Computex 2025, and from the looks of things, among the first!
As a reminder, CEO Jensen Huang will be taking center stage on May 19 at 11 a.m. in Taiwan time (May 18 at 11 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. PT). There's still a while to wait, but we'll keep you posted on all the latest happenings.
Will Qualcomm respond with Snapdragon X2?
It isn't just Nvidia's big keynote that's happening today, as we're eagerly waiting for what Qualcomm has to say about its state of CPUs. And if we had to guess, a Snapdragon X2 chip would be a a great rival against a possible Nvidia laptop chip.
Not much is known about a next-gen Snapdragon CPU (a leaked shipping manifest states it could happen), but if it surfaces, it's likely to offer greater processing power driven by AI, even further compatibility with AI-driven apps, better battery efficiency and, possibly, better gaming performance.
That's just us being skeptical, but if it's in any way better than the first swoop of Snapdragon X Elite and Plus chips for Copilot+ PCs, Qualcomm will be bringing out a CPU to keep on your radar — and Nvidia will already have some competition if it releases its own CPU.
Will Nvidia launch a CPU?
While we're already expecting the launch of Nvidia's latest RTX 5060 GPU during the big keynote at Computex 2025, a big question is whether Team Green will have a hidden surprise up its sleeve. Namely, Nvidia's own laptop CPU.
Rumors of the Windows on Arm chip popped up recently, stating that it could come with a modified version of the GB10 Superchip in Nvidia's announced Project DIGITS AI supercomputer (now known as DGX Spark) for desktops.
In partnership with MediaTek, this chip could feature 8 or 12 CPU cores (instead of 20 in the GB10), along with possibly a quarter of the 128GB of RAM, so 32GB or even 16GB. There have been benchmark leaks, too, with speeds at 3.9 GHz, single-core performance reaching 2,960 and multicore at 10,682.
Either way, if Nvidia does deliver its own CPU for laptops, it could be a game-changer. Stay tuned until we find out!
Welcome to Computex 2025 - here's the latest!
It's Day minus-one of Computex 2025 and we're live from Taipei ahead of the Nvidia GTC keynote kicking off this morning at 11am. But before all of that, we're already seeing plenty of news come out.
- We've made out predictions about what to expect at Computex 2025
- MSI has announced pretty much everything it's bringing to the show
- Acer has done the same too
- And I've already gone hands-on with Nvidia's new cheap RTX 5060 GPU
You can expect much more news to come out today, alongside plenty of hands-on time with the latest announcements (and of course the Qualcomm keynote too). So keep it locked!
