For the first time in our history, we are breaking into the competitive gaming peripheral scene with the new Alienware Pro Wireless Mouse and Alienware Pro Wireless Keyboard. These advanced wireless products debut at CES 2024 alongside new gaming laptops and first of their kind QD-OLED monitors to satisfy competitive players and esports professionals. Our team knew that to make a premier mouse and keyboard tailored for pros, we needed input from pros. Throughout the development process, we collaborated with over 100 esports athletes from across the globe, including Team Liquid, our longtime partner and the most successful team in esports history. Guided by their insights, our expert engineers and designers meticulously crafted our most advanced peripherals ever.

Tuned for performance and comfort, welcome the Alienware Pro Mouse
Pro gamers are in consensus - a tournament-ready mouse needs to be responsive, comfortable and offer long battery life. We pushed the limits in these areas then combined them with thoughtful conveniences to make the Alienware Pro Mouse a great choice for anyone - from esports athletes to tech enthusiasts. We started by packing the Pro Mouse with the highest performance components. You are probably familiar with DPI, but another key performance characteristic is polling rate. Polling rate is the frequency in which data is sent from a mouse to a device.

Cooler Master had plenty to show at the CES 2024 in Las Vegas, including a full lineup of its power supply units. The star of the show were the new X Silent Max, X Silent Edge, and the X Mighty PSU series, all featuring ATX 3.1 support and 12VHPWR outputs. In addition, Cooler Master also showcased a couple of SFX PSUs and V- and GX-series power supplies.

The Cooler Master X Mighty PSU series will be available in 2800 W and 2000 W outputs, and comes with a total of four 12VHPWR connectors on the 2800 W model, providing a total of 2,400 W power. As said, it comes with ATX 3.1 support, use only high-quality and reliable components, and have 80 Plus Platinum power efficiency. It supports MasterCTRL software where you can monitor temperature, load, and overall performance. The X Silent Max is going to be available in 1300 W version, and has ATX 3.1 support and comes with a single 12VHPRW output, It uses ultra-quiet Cooler Master Mobius fan keeping the noise level at up to 20dB. It comes with patented single-piece heat dissipation structure which uses a direct contact heatsink with heatpipes combined with the casing in order to keep the temperatures down. It also uses active bridge rectifier and Infineon IC chips for high quality performance, as well as has support for MasterCTRL software.

Besides bringing out new feature updates to its Boreas line of air coolers, GAMDIAS showcased its latest AIO liquid CPU coolers, the Aura GL V2 series, and the Chione P3 series. The Chione P3 series features an innovative pump-block design that features a small ~60 mm fan that generates some airflow around the CPU socket, to help cool the VRM heatsinks, memory modules, and the NVMe SSD closest to it. Right above this fan, suspended on armatures is a round LCD display that displays coolant temperature by default, but can be made to display just about anything, using the Chione Cast app. The Chione P3 comes in two sizes—240 mm (P3-240U), and 360 mm (P3-360U). The P3 series also introduces an updated hydraulic bearing PWM fan, and Teflon-coated coolant tubes.

The Aura GL V2 series are positioned to be a little more affordable than the Chione P3 series, There are several improvements to the V2 over the original Aura series, such as an updated pump with a 12-slot, 10-pole motor, an updated copper cold-plate, an updated coolant channel, cable concealment, and some design touch-ups, such as the ability to rotate the top plate of the pump-block. The Aura GL V2 series comes in 360 mm, 240 mm, and 120 mm sizes; and their sub-variants of black and white.

GAMDIAS at the 2024 International CES showed off its updates to the Boreas M2-51 and E2-41 lines of tower-type CPU coolers. The new M2-51D and E2-410D, along with their white variants M2-51DWH and E2-410DWH, come with a digital segment display along the top plate. The aluminium fin-stack is slightly recessed, creating room for a tiny bit of electronics, which are wired down to the base. Besides fan RPM, this display puts out CPU temperature, although we're not sure how it goes about doing this.

The easiest way would be to have this display plug into one of the USB 2.0 headers, and for an app to read CPU temperature and fan RPM off the super I/O chip; although we'd be surprised if it's taking the difficult route of localized fan control and its own thermal measurements using a thermistor. Both the M2-51D and E2-410D are nearly identical heatsinks, but differ in heatpipe count—5 versus 4, respectively; and so while the M2-51D is rated for thermal loads of up to 240 W, the E2-410D is rated up to 230 W. The display is hidden behind a tinted polycarbonate panel, so it looks flush. Although not on display at CES, GAMDIAS revealed that it's working on a high-end dual fin-stack cooler that uses the vast top-plate area available to sneak in a true-color LCD screen.

Alphacool at the 2024 CES debuted its APEX line of premium DIY liquid cooling products; and we've covered the Alphacool APEX 1 CPU water block, CPU+VRM monoblock, and memory cooler in our older article focusing on the company's new liquid cooling products. Here we have the star attraction at Alphacool's CES booth, the new APEX Skeleton full-tower case. This case features an open-cage design, with minimal body paneling to favor ventilation, a high degree of modularity, and all the features you need to build a DIY liquid cooled enthusiast PC powered by the company's APEX and Core liquid cooling hardware. Its struts, motherboard tray, front-, top-, and bottom-panels are made of real carbon fiber, while the frame remains steel. Both its side panels are tinted tempered glass. Alphacool includes a Distroplate reservoir with the case that's perfectly aligned with its design and location of core components; but you pair it with your own D5 pump and fittings.

Next up, is the APEX Stealth line of case fans. These are premium fans with their frames made of metal. The frame is a combination of an outer metal body that takes the familiar square shape, while there's an inner polycarbonate frame that makes up the bore of the frame. This structure makes contact with the motor and fluid-dynamic bearing. The impeller remains polycarbonate, and is webbed toward the end for 100% axial airflow. The inner frame is isolated from the outer metal frame through a series of vibration absorbing standoffs, washers, and O-rings. With these in place, Alphacool claims comparable noise levels the some of the quietest high-end fans in the industry. The outer metal frame comes in several trims, including silver chrome, matte black, gold, and matte white. Available now, the APEX Stealth 120 mm fans are priced around 30€ a piece.

The TechPowerUp team visited the EK water blocks booth at the CES 2024 international show. We previously covered the company's latest direct-die all-in-one (AIO) water cooler, but many more products were on display. First in line is EK's Quantum-X NoCase chassis, which contradicts traditional PC enclosures with its open, no outer shell design. This radical departure from convention results in a nearly invisible frame crafted from aluminium for a featherlight weight of approximately 3 pounds. Its design is meticulously engineered to be as airy and lightweight as possible without compromising the support needed for essential hardware and liquid cooling components. The case integrates the advanced Reflection² distro plate, equipped with dual D5 pumps to facilitate separate cooling loops for both the CPU and GPU, ensuring optimal thermal management in a minimalist aesthetic.

Alphacool at the 2024 International CES showed us their latest full-copper radiators, distribution plate reservoirs, and CPU water blocks, under its new Core brand that it debuted with the Core 1 series CPU blocks. The Core XT45 radiator series come in popular sizes, and are noticeably heavy since they're based on a heavier metal than aluminium. Besides the use of copper, the Core XT45 also features a denser fin structure, while their steel frames feature a silicone diffuser for RGB lighting.

Next up, are the Core 1 LT series CPU water blocks. These are a "lite" version of the Core 1 series blocks Alphacool announced in 2023; featuring less elaborate tops, but without compromising on quality or cooling performance. While the Core 1 series comes with premium brushed metal or carbon fiber finish tops; the Core 1 LT uses simpler LED-studded acrylic tops, some of which have vinyl panels and other inserts. The block underneath remains nickel-plated copper, with the same cross-slot base and 3D jet-plate. Since the top has close to no role to play in the cooling except structural, the performance is unchanged.

During the CES 2024 show, EK unveiled an exciting new addition to their premium all-in-one (AIO) CPU cooler lineup—the EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Direct Die D-RGB. As the name suggests, this new 360 mm AIO water cooler is purpose-built for direct die cooling of delidded Intel LGA1700 CPUs. The EK-Nucleus Direct Die stands out with its custom cold plate and mounting mechanism, which are exclusively engineered for exposed CPU dies. The nickel-plated copper base ensures compatibility with liquid metal TIMs like the included Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut, which comes in the package. EK has worked with der8auer to provide delidding service kits and tools to facilitate easy DIY removal of the integrated heat spreader (IHS).

The package also contains a contact frame and protective foam for safe liquid metal application. At the heart of the cooler is a powerful AIO pump EK co-developed with the OEM manufacturer, meaning it is not an off-the-shelf pump found in other AIOs and is capable of up to 500 L/h flow rate. The reinforced, sleeved rubber tubing is fitted with aluminium covers for durability. Integrated omnilink connectors allow daisy chaining of the three included 120 mm D-RGB fans for cable management. The EK-Nucleus Direct Die offers extensive RGB lighting customization with illuminated circle accents on the removable pump top covers. The diamond-cut brushed aluminium side panels and radiator cowl add to the premium aesthetic. The new AIO will be available for the Intel LGA1700 platform, with hopefully more versions later. The EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Direct Die D-RGB is now available for pre-order at €202.90 MSRP price tag.

Every gaming lifestyle brand has a stream-control device in its lineup these days, but none even functionally close to the MasterHub by Cooler Master. This is a modular, highly customizable stream control panel, in which you can swap out modules to alter its layout and functionality. A base plate roughly the size of a 7-inch tablet has various contact points on top; you pick and choose the modules you need, and mount them on top of this dock.

Among the modules available are everything from a 15-key Lebdev pad, to one with a 5-pole fader, to one with rotary knobs, to another with drum rollers, to another with a puck-shaped touchscreen. You can mix and match them as you need, and everything is programmable using the MasterHub app. You can even have multiple modules of the same kind—think two Lebdev pads worth 30 keys; or as many MasterHubs as you want. The base plate aggregates all modules into a single USB-C connection to your PC.

The EPOMAKER x LINSOUL booth at the 2024 International CES had a lineup of ThieAudio in-ear monitors. We begin our tour with the Hype 10. The name apparently stands for "hybrid performance." Each of these IEMs comes with two 10 mm composite diaphragm drivers arranged in an isobaric design to make a subwoofer. These offer a broad frequency response range from 10 Hz to 40 kHz with 105 dB/Vrms @ 1 kHz sensitivity. ThieAudio has these priced at $900 a pair. Next up, is the more feature-packed Prestige LTD, with 1DD + 4BA + 4EST Tribrid setup, and an electrostatic driver that provides a broad 10 Hz to 20 Hz frequency response. Each earphone contains 4 Sonion electrostatic drivers, plus 2 Knowles mid-treble balanced armatures, plus 2 Sonion low-mid balanced armatures, and a 10 mm dynamic subwoofer. The maximum frequency response thanks to this setup is as high as 80 kHz. Sensitivity tops out at 98 dB @ 1 kHz. ThieAudio prices these at $1,300.

While ThieAudio focuses on audiophiles, the Kiwi Ears series is for the mass market that just wants better sound. Kiwi Ears Forteza is an entry-level IEM by ThieAudio, with a much simpler 1 High-Mid balanced armature (BA) + 10 mm Mid-range dynamic driver (DD) + 10 mm Bass DD setup; a regular 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, with 103 dBSPL/mW @ 1 kHz sensitivity; at an attractive price of just $59. Winding things up is the Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite, a more premium product positioned above the Forteza; with an 8 BA multi driver setup consisting of Kiwi Ears customized HI x2 + Kiwi Ears Customized MID x4 + Knowles LOW x2, per earphone. Available for pre-order now, the Orchestra Lite is priced at $249. Lastly, we ran into a number of face-plate customizations by Kiwi Ears.

Building on the success of the original AirJet Mini, which garnered widespread recognition, including the prestigious COMPUTEX 2023 Golden Award and CES 2024 "Best of Innovation" Award, Frore Systems continues to accelerate the pace of innovation in thermal management. The AirJet Mini Slim, featuring the same groundbreaking solid-state active cooling design of its predecessor, includes three new features, while remaining silent, lightweight and delivering superior heat removal compared to traditional fans.

PC World's Adam Patrick Murray and Brad Chacos sat down with a key figure representing Intel's Arc engineering team at CES 2024—Tom "TAP" Petersen was happy to answer queries regarding Team Blue's next-gen GPU offerings. The former long-tenured NVIDIA marketer + engineer confirmed in a video interview (see below) that Intel's Arc hardware department has already moved onto developing the Celestial Xe3 GPU family, while a significant chunk of staff are dedicated to getting software ready for a 2024 Battlemage Xe2-HPG GPU series launch. The latter info tracks with internal presentation material from late last year. The rumor mill has discrete Battlemage GPUs linked to a 4 nm-class TSMC foundry node.

Tom Petersen stated: "It's coming, I am excited about it, and all our engineers you know how they are constantly doing their engineering things. I'd say about 30% of our engineers are working on Battlemage, mostly on the software side because our hardware team is on the next thing (Celestial), so think about it as the Battlemage has already has its first silicon in the labs which is very exciting and there's more good news coming which I can't talk about right now...We hope we are going see it before the next CES in 2025." VideoCardz reckons that Battlemage could reach retail shelves alongside Team Blue's Lunar Lake CPU generation later this year, while Celestial has possible ties to a Panther Lake CPU release in 2025.

EPOMAKER at the 2024 International CES showed off its recent gaming peripherals. The company specializes in retro-futuristic looking keyboards that look like they're from the 1980s, but are backed by modern tech. Our tour begins with the CIDOO V87, a TKL wireless keyboard with matte linear key switches, an aluminium unibody chassis, a programmable metal rotary knob, and dye-sublimation PBT keycaps. It supports RF + Bluetooth + USB-C connectivity, and a 3,000 mAh battery with fast charging can run the keyboard for days with its lighting.

Next up, is the RT100, a 95% (97-key) format mechanical keyboard, featuring a gasket-mounting ergonomic design, flexible choices of key switches between Gateron and EPOMAKER (in-house); and 3 connectivity options. Pay attention to the stub near the Esc key—it has a little multi-color LED display that can be used to put out real-time monitoring stats. The EPOMAKER Feker Alice 98 is modeled after the early-1990s Microsoft Ergonomic keyboard that sees the main key cluster split and angled into two; except with all the "modern amenities," such as pre-lubed mechanical key switches, RF + Bluetooth + USB-C interfaces, and more. There is a variant with an off-white CNC aluminium top-plate, and another with a small programmable screen. Lastly, EPOMAKER displayed its MIX Pro retro-futuristic USB-C cable meant to mimic the coiled cord look of keyboards from the 1980s.

Continuing on with the YEYIAN CES tour, we were shown the company's in-house gaming monitors, and pre-built gaming PCs. There were no empty cases or cases that you can purchase separately in YEYIAN's lineup as such; some of these case feature unique design elements; but you're supposed to choose it along with pre-built gaming hardware. YEYIAN offers the full range of systems integration, letting you choose from the company's in-house and external brands; which are then built to order. On eof the pre-builts shown had an Intel Core i7-14700K, paired with an OEM-favorite ASUS Prime Z790-P, and a ROG Strix RTX 4090 graphics card, all combined with YEYIAN's in-house case, power, and cooling hardware. The company's monitor lineup shown at CES begins with 25-inch Proact series Fast IPS displays that blaze Full HD (1080p) at 360 Hz with 1 ms GTG response time. Next up is the 27-inch Palette series; a premium OLED monitor with QHD (1440p) resolution, fast 240 Hz refresh rate, 0.1 ms response time, and 800 nits brightness. The monitor requires DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.1 connection to provide its specs.

ASUS today announced the RT-AX57 Go tri-mode travel router, a dual-band model that offers ultra-fast WiFi 6 up to 3,000 Mbps. It provides tri-mode connectivity for travel, work and home, including 4G and 5G mobile tethering, public WiFi mode (WISP), router mode, subscription-free security and multiple VPN features. With support for 160 MHz WiFi channels, RT-AX57 Go can also support up to 70 devices, four times the capacity of previous models.

Frequent travelers often face situations where no WiFi is available. The RT-AX57 Go can provide an easy and secure connection through the mobile hotspot feature that can share WiFi with multiple devices. Travelers may also experience a limit on the number of devices that can connect to hotel or airport WiFi, and expensive connection fees. RT-AX57 Go can help sidestep these hassles by letting users easily set up private WiFi connections anywhere, whether in a hotel room, on a cruise ship, at an airport terminal, or even a recreational vehicle at a camp site.

Thermaltake continued its unveiling of new CTE C-series chassis models at CES 2024—TPU staff took a closer look at the C200 the other day. This is a dual-chamber ITX chassis available in black or "Snow" white; it utilizes Thermaltake's Centralized Thermal Efficiency (CTE) Form Factor design. According to the C200 spec sheet, PC builders can customize the interior with (up to) 6 x 120 mm case fans, there is also enough room for a single 280 mm AIO radiator.

The showcased black CTE C200 was configured with an array of Thermaltake SWAFAN EX14 ARGB fans, TOUGHLIQUID Ultra 280 All-In-One Liquid Cooler and a TOUGHPOWER GF3 ARGB 850 W PSU. The contained build included an Intel Core i5-13500 CPU, Thermaltake TOUGHRAM XG RGB D5 DDR5 memory, and an ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB graphics card.

YEYIAN at the 2024 International CES displayed some really wacky cooling and power solutions. Over in the cooling front, was got to see a super rare 480 mm AIO. This cooler has a 480 mm x 120 mm radiator, which requires four 120 mm in a row. We're not sure if there are any cases that support this radiator size, but we're sure it could become a thing. It would be interesting to compare the cooling performance of a 480 mm x 120 mm AIO with that of a 420 mm x 140 mm (a much more popular form-factor). YEYIAN's AIO coolers come in three sizes—360 mm x 120 mm, 480 mm x 120 mm, and 420 mm x 140 mm. The pump-blocks feature a 2.1-inch IPS LCD display with 480 x 480 pixels resolution, which can be programmed to display anything. Each of the included fans turn at speeds of up to 2600 RPM, pushing up to 72 CFM of airflow, with as high as 23 dBA noise.

Next up, YEYIAN showed off its Orion series full modular ATX 3.1 power supplies. These meet the latest ATX 3.1 and PCIe Gen 5 spec; and offer a native 12V-2x6 power connector, the successor to 12VHPWR with more mechanical durability, which can deliver 600 W of continuous power. The YEYIAN Orion series comes in 850 W, 1300 W, and 1600 W capacities, with the 1300 W and 1600 W models meeting 80 Plus Platinum efficiency; while the 850 W model meets 80 Plus Gold. All three are equipped with a 600 W-capable 12V-2x6; the top 1600 W offers two of these in case you have one of those crazy GALAX HOF RTX 4090 cards.

YEYIAN isn't just into prebuilt gaming PCs, DIY gaming PC hardware and gaming peripherals, but also gear for game streamers and creators. The company showed off its latest gear that includes a programmable command center in the form of the Stream Deck; and the dual-connection XLR/type-C mic, with its boom stand. The Stream Deck has a combination of eight programmable OLED keys, four physical knobs, and a monochrome OLED display that lets you dynamically label those knobs. YEYIAN's mic supports XLR and USB-C connections, features a little touch panel, and an aluminium stand. Both type-C and XLR cables come included with the mic. The company hasn't revealed the analog specs of the mic yet.

In addition to the new AIO coolers and PSUs, ENERMAX brought a full lineup of new PC cases to the CES 2024 show, including the new ENERPAZO lineup, the new EK98, and the SK30 V2 PC cases. The ENERPAZO lineup with the ENERPAZO EP33 mid-tower and the ENERPAZO EP23 mini-tower PC cases, and the EK98 mid-tower PC case, all come with built-in USB 3.2 Gen 1 and USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type C ports and reusable PCIe slots, as well as feature recognizable ENERMAX design with grill front and glass side panel.

The ENERPAZO EP33 supports up to an E-ATX motherboards, has support for a 420 mm AIO liquid CPU cooler and up to 11 fans, while the ENERPAZO EP23, as mini-tower PC case, supports up to a micro-ATX motherboard and a 360 mm AIO liquid CPU cooler and up to 8 fans. The EK98 supports up to a 360 mm AIO liquid CPU cooler and up to 9 fans, as well as comes with vertical GPU installation support with rotatable PCIe slots and pre-installed 4 ARGB PWM fans. ENERMAX also showcased the new SK30 V2 PC case mid-tower PC case which also comes with USB 3.2 Type-C ports, supports up to 360 mm AIO liquid CPU cooler ass well as comes with the same vertical GPU installation support and couple of pre-installed ARGB PWM fans.

YEYIAN is an up and coming gaming lifestyle brand that's spreading to new markets around the globe. The company made its CES debut this year with a host of new gaming peripherals and PC hardware. We begin our coverage with their peripherals. We first went hands on with an interesting new 65% format keyboard called simply the "Ultra Compact Transparent Keyboard." Nearly all its body panels of this wireless keyboard is transparent, letting you see the PCB underneath holding all the user-replaceable key switches. The keyboard gives you the option of a low-latency 2.4 GHz RF, and Bluetooth. In Bluetooth mode, the keyboard supports 3 simultaneous channels. It uses a rechargeable battery that can fast-charge in a hour, providing up to 10 days of stand-by time.

The next keyboard is more premium, and wired. It's called the "Mechanical Keyboard_Cherry Switch." It's probable that YEYIAN will come up with new names for these keyboards that are easier to recall. The wired keyboard comes in a 75% (82-key) format in a compact body size. The start attraction here is its latest generation CHERRY MX2A switches, which are pre-lubricated. YEYIAN has opted for the MX2A Speed Silver switch with integrated RGB lighting. Next up, are two ultra lightweight wireless mice, the YEYIAN Drift and YEYIAN Dominate.
