2024 could have been a better year for Hardware Asylum but, we still got to do some amazing things and explore some great new hardware. 2025 marks an attempt to change things up a bit, bring back from old friends and start some new chapters.
Modern computer systems require modern products to extract the very best performance. When it comes to system memory the new CUDIMM modules are designed to deliver on that promise and there is no better example than the Lexar ARES RGB modules clocked in at 9600MT/s making them some of the fastest sticks at CES.
On display during CES, Creative was showing the latest version in the Pebble series the Nova. The Pebble Nova has the same great form factor but with the addition of a woofer directly behind the primary speaker.
This adventure started with a special memory line that you could by from GSKill, the Splave edition. This special memory bin offered Trident Z5 RGB modules with special tuning and are now getting included with custom overclocked gaming PCs tuned by Splave himself.
One of the exciting releases during Computex 2024 was the AI Top product line from Gigabyte. These new motherboards are specially designed for the unique demands of AI development and now range to include most every available chipset from the AMD B850 up to the TRX50 Threadripper and Intel W790.
Hardware Asylum is once again at the forefront of hardware this time showing of their extreme overclocking skills with Liquid Nitrogen (LN2) at the Boise LAN Party and at a local tech conference called Hackfort.
At CES 2019 HyperX had several great products on display and two really caught our attention. The first was the HyperX Quadcast desktop gaming microphone with plenty of high-quality features to take on Blue and Razor.
ZOTAC was showing their ArcticStorm waterblock design at CES 2019 and it looks amazing. The block is a custom design unit with plenty of clear acrylic for viewing the coolant and RGB lighting effects.
The MSI Lightning is back, this time with a RTX 2080 Ti GPU and OLED screen across the top. Sadly there is a good chance this might be the only version any of us ever see.
For years Aorus (Gigabyte) has been one of my favorite destinations during trade shows and while at Computex they launched their line of gaming memory modules this year they cranked things up and have one of the best monitor implementations I have ever seen.
During the pre-show keynote Jensen Huang talked about a good number of things from Ray-Tracing technology, Laptops, Monitors and gave some in-depth details about how the new RT and Tensor cores actually work and make gaming better.
