BEST OF COMPUTEX 2023 THE MOST INTRIGUING AND INNOVATIVE PC HARDWARE

 

Computex is the most vital PC show of the year, every year. Just look at the name! Taiwan’s trade show is where computer vendors large and small unveil their latest, greatest gear ahead of the crucial back-to-school and holiday shopping seasons. If CES is where the industry showcases its vision for the future, Computex keeps it real (fave.co/3MZ9UiW).

Product cycles for the world’s biggest chip vendors made this Computex, held in late May and early June, feel somewhat muted. Intel and AMD skipped keynotes all together, while Nvidia spent two hours talking about AI rather than games. With no new CPUs or GPUs on tap, the usual barrage of fresh PCs packing new tech slowed to a trickle this year, as the next generation had already arrived earlier in the year.

But that gap also provided fresh opportunities. With laptops and chips taking a backseat, innovative peripherals flourished at Computex 2023, bolstered by exciting new software that promises to let you do even more with hardware. Which reveals got us deeply, personally excited? This is the best hardware and software of Computex 2023.

1. CORSAIR ICUE LINK

There’s a definite trend in PC building this year, something we’re calling the War on Cables. And while we’re still months away (at least) from new motherboards (fave.co/ 3P4r7dE), cases, and even graphics cards (fave.co/4601qRc) designed to get cables tucked away from your central tower build, Corsair’s cooling solution should be out this summer. The iCue Link system (fave. co/43X8jkx) lets you daisy-chain multiple fans, AIO coolers, and even coolant reservoirs along a single cable line.
