At CES 2026, TCOMAS presented its JF series of cases, including the JF300 and JF500 SKUs. Both mid-tower models boast integrated IPS displays and are crafted with high-quality materials such as ABS, steel, and tempered glass, available in either white or black finishes. The 54.3L JF300 chassis, measuring 448.5 x 295 x 475.9 mm, includes a vertical 9.2-inch screen with 1920x462 resolution and supports ATX, microATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards with reverse insertion, graphics cards up to 420 mm, and CPU coolers up to 175 mm. The case has been designed with openness in mind so it can showcase internal componentry in the best way possible. There are configurations which can include up to six 120 mm fans, so the airflow is more than adequate inside the system.

TCOMAS showcased at CES two very different AIO CPU cooler designs oriented for users on opposite ends of the aesthetics spectrum. The WG900 series is built for LCD enthusiasts, while the WA300 offers a display-free, compact pump-block design. First, we have the WG900 / WG900 Pro coolers featuring a cube-style pump block with three integrated 3.95-inch square LCD screens. The detachable display module connects to the pump block via USB Type-C port. The cooler uses an X6M-P pump rated at 22 dBA and 9.6 W, paired with a 397 x 119.2 x 29.2 mm aluminium radiator and 400 mm braided rubber tubing. Cooling is handled by three 120 mm fans spinning from 650 to 3200 RPM, delivering up to 115.3 CFM airflow and 7.48 mmAq static pressure, with noise levels reaching up to 41 dBA. The WG900 is offered in both black and white.

The TCOMAS WA300 takes a simpler route, dropping LCDs entirely in favor of a pump-block design that resembles a miniature desktop PC. It uses the same X6M pump platform (22 dBA, 9.6 W) and an identical 397 mm aluminium radiator with 400 mm braided tubing. Cooling is provided by three 120 mm DA100 fans running at up to 2500 RPM, pushing up to 81.8 CFM with 3.2 mmAq static pressure and a maximum noise level of 35 dBA. Like the WG900, the WA300 is available in black and white.More images follow.

GIGABYTE, the world's leading computer brand, showcased its AI TOP product line at CES 2026, highlighting that the rapid adoption of AI inferencing is accelerating the shift of AI from cloud to local. AI has become more accessible, responsive, and adaptable for everyday use, accomplishing the concept of "AI for everyone" in the AI era. Recognizing this transition, GIGABYTE introduced the AI TOP system in 2024 to enable local AI development with household-standard power, and has since expanded the lineup to support diverse usage scenarios ranging from personal projects to business deployments.

At the top of the product lineup is the AI TOP system, a fully customizable AI computing solution built with GIGABYTE AI TOP series hardware to match specific AI workload requirements. Designed to empower desktop users for local AI development, the AI TOP 500 system supports AI models up to 405B parameters and is tailored for medium-sized businesses seeking scalable AI computing power locally.

To expand performance and accelerate the computing process, multiple AI TOP systems can be clustered through Ethernet and Thunderbolt ports, increasing training speeds and providing scalable power for more workloads.

Akko showed off a wide range of keyboards at last week's CES trade show, but the majority of products on display were already well known properties. The Chinese brand touted a refreshed M1 V5 TMR model for 2026 in pre-event press material, but the TechPowerUp team did not spot any specimens at the company's booth. We suspect that Akko had actually sold a fair few of its exhibited items to showroom visitors, by the time TPU staffers turned up in-person. Fortunately, two fairly new models were still sitting around for inspection purposes.

Starting with the sleek and slim Air 01 model—this low-profile mechanical keyboard has been prepped with Mac users in mind, although other platforms are supported via tri-mode connectivity. Akko has opted for precision CNC-machined aluminium construction, resulting in a premium feel combined with a sturdy feel yet lightweight property. The brand's latest low profile switches have been implemented on silicone gaskets—leading to a smooth typing experience. The Air 01 features PBT dye-sublimated premium keycaps. Apparently, the board houses an integrated RGB lighting system, but TechPowerUp did not take a moment time to fire up this decorative aspect. Akko started promoting their Air 01 low-profile model last November, with retail availability rolled out within a short timeframe.

At CES 2020, Formovie showcased the Xming Chapter One LCD projector. Its main feature is the Liquid Cooling System (LQC) designed to reduce noise and keep brightness levels stable, compared with classic air-cooled variants. While liquid cooling is already starting to be included by others in some of their latest 4K models (i.e., Anker Nebula X1 or Hisense XR10), it is nice to see that this technology is spreading also to more mainstream products like this one. The Chapter One is powered by a MediaTek MT9660 processor and supports MEMC (Motion Estimation, Motion Compensation) smoothing, autofocus, and automatic keystone correction. It has a native FHD 1920 × 1080 resolution and is rated for up to 2,000 ISO lumens. The projector also has a sealed optical engine to prevent dust from entering the optical elements. It also offers USB 2.0 and Dual HDMI 1.4 ports while Dolby Audio is listed for the integrated speakers, with no detailed audio specifications disclosed. Pricing and availability will be announced at a later date.

Targus subsidiary Hyper, had some rather interesting products on display at this year's CES, at least if you're looking for accessories for your notebooks that stick out a bit from the crowd. First up is the HyperSpace Trackpad Pro which the company claims is the first "premium haptic trackpad" that has been designed specifically for use with Windows. Hyper claims it has zero latency input, a 240 Hz report rate and pressure sensing for up to 10 fingers.

Next up we have the new HyperDrive Next USB4 M.2 PCIe enclosure that is said to support USB4 V2, suggesting it's based on an Intel JHL9480 Thunderbolt 5 accessory controller, as no other chip supports 80 Gbps throughput (limited to 64 Gbps for data). Note that the product name implies that the device isn't limited to just storage, as Hyper claims it can be used for connecting other M.2 add-in cards to your computer. It's unclear if the second Type-C port allows for daisy changing, but it should support 25 W power input for devices that require more power than the Thunderbolt interface can deliver.

Akko is best known as a manufacturer of keyboards, yet they do offer a couple of wireless mouse models—mostly shaped as cute cartoon animals. Unsurprisingly, the Chinese brand had its colorful selection of Cat-themed pointer devices on prominent display at last week's CES trade event. TechPowerUp noticed a couple of more sober-looking offerings positioned in front and to the side of Akko's chunky feline-profiled peripherals. As of early 2026, Akko has debuted brand-new Nest, Dash, and Framer wireless gaming mice models—showcased as standard black or white variants. The keyboard specialist has already released two symmetrical designs—under the Pulse 01 and AG ONE lines—but their latest wave branches off with two right-hand ergonomic shape options.

The flagship Nest model is advertised as offering "ergonomic control" over really long first-person shooter or MOBA gaming sessions. Its overall shape seems to be inspired by Zowie's popular EC range. MSRP is $89.99, but Akko was running a special launch priced promo during CES week. The lightweight (49 grams) Nest design is based around a custom implementation of Pixart's top-level PAW3950 optical sensor, paired up with a pair of high-performance Nordic MCUs. Specifically, the nRF52840 and nRF52820 chipsets have been deployed in order to enable ultra-stable wireless transmission and low-latency response. The Nest can support 8000 Hz polling rates across its 2.4G wireless and wired modes.

Targus might very well be the best known brand of laptop bags and accessories in the world and at CES this year, the company brought with it a range of new products. First up we have Targus' new Voyager EXP travel backpack that the company says was developed for mobile professionals and frequent travelers. It fits up to a 17-inch notebook and can be expanded from 27 to 30 litres. Tagus mentions that it's been designed to not only protect your laptop, but it also has an RFID blocking compartment and lockable zippers, as well as a trolley straps for when you travel with a suitcase.

Targus also had a range of new mobile docks on display, some of which have USB4 support and the ability to pass through up to 140 W of USB PD power. The USB4 docks also support 8K video output to a single display or 4K output to two displays. Unfortunately our team didn't manage to snap a pic of the new docks, so we borrowed one from Targus. In addition to this, Targus also showed some new magnetic privacy screens and a range of other laptop bags made from recycled plastic bottles, some of which you can see below.

Gunnir has added another custom Arc Pro B50 16 GB custom card design to its lineup of Xe2-HPG "Battlemage" GPU-based workstation products. The Chinese manufacturer's low profile variant was shown off in a low-key manner at the recently concluded CES trade show; specifically at Minisforum's booth. As a quick reminder, it must be noted that the mini PC specialist also exhibited Vastarmor's Radeon RX 9060 XT LP 16 GB custom graphics card on the same table. The single-slot thick Gunnir Arc Pro B50 LP model seems to conform to Intel reference specs; its BMG-G21 GPU is configured with 1700 MHz base and 2600 MHz boost clocks. The card is 70 W TDP-rated.

According to initial press material—issued last month—the company's engineers have crammed this level of professional hardware into a 167 x 69 x 18.4 mm package. Like the majority of modern-day Intel Arc Pro board partners, Gunnir has deployed a blower-style cooling solution. The TechPowerUp team inspected a demonstration sample that still had protective film applied across its shroud and backplate. No details—regarding release times and pricing—were ascertained from Minisforum representatives on the showroom floor. Gunnir tends to favor the PC market in China with launches of Pro-line products.

EINAREX brought a slew of new cases, CPU coolers, and high-performance case fans to the 2026 International CES. We begin our coverage with the Ventus V300, s premium dual fin-stack air CPU cooler that comes in black and white color variants, featuring six 6 mm-thick copper heat-pipes, and two 120 mm fans in push-pull configuration, with a top-plate spanning the fin-stacks and the middle fan. This cooler handles thermal loads of 260 W+, making it fit for processors with maximum turbo power of 250 W or above. We've also seen the EINAREX Glide G300, a more compacted version of the Ventus V300. There's also a fancy variant of this cooler with a wood-like top-plate. Each of the two fans comes with fluid-dynamic bearings.

Next up, are the EINAREX Vertex line of all-in-one liquid CPU coolers. These come with a cube-shaped pump-block with a partial, cuboidal glass ornament that puts out an infinite-reflection of an ARGB-illuminated EINAREX logo. The fans included with this cooler lack ARGB lighting, but feature fluid dynamic bearings. EINAREX Flux is a line of value AIO CLCs that feature a round, puck-shaped, classic Asetek-styled pump-block. There's an ARGB-lit logo inside an infinite-reflection ornament, and unlike the Vertex, the fans included with this cooler come with ARGB LED lighting in the fan frames. At CES, the company launched a more premium version of the Flux, the Flux Digital, which features an LED segment display that puts out CPU temperature, utilization, and GPU temperature readouts that the cooler pulls from software over USB and ACPI.

Moza Racing showcased the Porsche Mission R steering wheel at CES 2026. The wheel is an officially licensed Porsche replica, developed using original Porsche Mission R race car CAD data. At its center is a 5.4-inch curved OLED display running at 720p and 60 Hz, covered by curved tempered glass, and used to show live telemetry such as speed, lap times, tire pressure, battery status, ABS, and traction control. It uses a quad-core 1.3 GHz CPU and a customizable Moza dashboard system with several preset layouts and support for user-made designs. The wheel connects directly to a PC via the Moza universal hub kit and features CNC-machined aluminium shift paddles with dual clutch, Hall sensors, built-in silencer pads, and a Moza all-aluminium quick-release system, making it compatible with all Moza Racing wheel bases.

Also on display were the Moza Flight MRP Rudder Pedals, designed for the Moza flight simulation ecosystem. The pedals use an aluminium alloy frame and offer stepless tilt adjustment of ±25 degrees, along with ±30 degrees of swing arm rotation and 150 mm of travel. Connectivity is supported via RJ11 to Moza Flight bases or USB for PC compatibility. The MRP Rudder Pedals is priced at $349, with an optional adjustable damper available for $65.

At CES 2026, Three-D Desk showcased its ergonomic desktop workstation lineup, featuring the LS160 Standard, LD160 Premium, and LT160 Standard models. Each model is designed to cater to different workspace needs, all while emphasizing the company's posture-first ergonomics of use. The range includes features like electrically adjustable height and tilt, as well as support for multi-monitor setups, making it ideal for CAD designers, content creators, or anyone needing a flexible, hardware-friendly workstation. The LD160 is the premium option for dual monitors, offering a larger work surface and features tailored for power users. Meanwhile, the LT160 and LS160 provide more compact, standard configurations suitable for smaller offices or home setups. The LD160 can also support a single ultrawide monitor for a more bezel-free experience. These models are already available, but for pricing details, you need to check their website or contact a local distributor. According to the plaque at CES, the basic version starts at $4,000 and can go up to $7,000.

CTX, a Taiwanese monitor maker, has used its CES 2026 booth to display some amazing gaming monitors at various resolutions and refresh rates. One of the most notable models is the company's OM 27, a 27-inch 2560x1440p resolution OLED display running at an impressive 540 Hz refresh rate. With brightness scaling up to 1500 cd/m², the display is one of the fastest OLED panels at QHD resolution. CTX targets e-sports professionals who require high refresh rate, but decided to go with a QHD resolution to make modern GPUs a great pair to push these frame rates. The company advertises 0.03 ms response time, and embedded a single DisplayPort 2.1, two HDMI 2.0, and a single USB Type-C serving as power delivery of 96 W, plus a single audio output jack. The monitor supports AMD's FreeSync Premium, comes with DisplayHDR 400, and much more. As a display OEM, many companies will adopt this panel in their monitor solutions.

At CES 2026, Yunzii showcased its current keyboard lineup alongside its first-ever mouse and debuted the Yunzii B98 Pro keyboard. This is an 1800-layout mechanical keyboard with 101 keys, positioned as a more accessible alternative to the AL98 series. It drops the full-aluminium chassis in favor of a lighter construction, while retaining key features such as tri-mode connectivity, low-latency operation, QMK/VIA support, and a large 8000 mAh battery. Buyers can choose between a Kitty or Classic rotary knob variant.

Yunzii also used CES to highlight its first entry into the mouse segment, the C1 Silicone Mouse. Wrapped in a soft silicone shell, the C1 is available in several colorways, including Black, Silver, and Macaron Pink. It supports tri-mode connectivity (Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz wireless, and USB-C wired), offers six DPI levels ranging from 800 to 4800, and includes full software customization on Windows, with a web-based configurator for macOS and Windows. The device is powered by a 500 mAh battery, with up to 90 days of typical use claimed.

8bitDo at the International CES showed off its host of Retro Receivers. These are dongles that let you connect modern USB game controllers and other peripherals to actual retro consoles across the 2nd to 6th generation console era, spanning everything from 8-bit from the 1980s thru 16-bit from the early 1990s, and 32-bit from the mid-1990s thru late-2000s.

We've seen receivers for NES, SNES, Genesis, PlayStation 1, Saturn, GameCube, and more. The company also showed us their entire selection of game controllers, both modern and retro, including period-accurate and directly compatible arcade sticks. The 8bitDo Ultimate Arcade Stick comes with an 8-position stick, along with eight smash-friendly buttons. There are selectors that let you switch between various console types. Next up, are replacement PCBs and DIY kits that let you give your old controllers a new lease of life.More pictures follow.

RUIX Gaming made its CES debut this year, with a slick new lineup of cases, PSUs, and cooling products. Starting things off, we have the company's new RT series of premium ATX 3.1 PSUs. These come in 750 W, 850 W, 1000 W, and 1200 W variants, although the 1000 W model was missing in the booth. The series meets ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 CEM specs, and offers 600 W-capable 12V-2x6 connectors on all models 850 W thru 1200 W, while the 750 W model comes with a 450 W-capable 12V-2x6. These PSUs are characterized by an airy chassis that allows for better ventilation of all its hot components, and a 120 mm fan to keep cool. The PSUs themselves have a space-saving 150 mm depth. All included cables are individually sleeved.

Next up, is the RUIX Gaming OV 703, a spacious ATX mid-tower with a pillarless front-left edge, with tempered glass along the left and front panel. The case offers clearances of 41 cm for graphics cards, and 18 cm height for CPU coolers. The bottom compartment has two 3.5-inch/2.5-inch drive trays, and an additional 2.5-inch mount. The case comes in white and black color options, and measures 456 mm x 222 mm x 465 mm (DxWxH). The CV 303 is a mid-tower with a slatted mesh intake along the front-panel, and three 140 mm front fan mounts, and three 120 mm mounts along the partition between the two compartments. This, too, comes in black and white, and measures 470 mm x 226 mm x 480 mm. Lastly, the company showed off its upcoming AeroSpace Pro Max case with a ridged LED diffuser along the bottom compartment, a style that closely resembles ASUS ROG Strix graphics cards.More pictures follow.

Display panel manufacturer HKC was showing off its latest RGB MiniLED tech during CES and the company is working on its own display driver for this up and coming display technology. The chip is simply named the HV9901, but promises to be capable of driving over 5,000 RGB MiniLED dimming zones, or alternatively over 15,000 white MiniLED dimming zones. HKC also has its own RGB MiniLED panel which goes under the name of M10 Ultra and should be capable to deliver over 98 percent of the BT.2020 colour space and deliver up to 1000 nits brightness, while still delivering near OLED blacks.

The M10 Ultra panel on display at CES was a 31.5-inch panel with 4K resolution and a 165 Hz refresh rate, with a 1080p/330 Hz dual mode option. The panel is DisplayHDR 1400 certified and has a 2 ms GtG response time, but there was no mention of how many dimming zones it offers. The demo unit also featured a pair of HDMI 2.1 ports, a DisplayPort 2.1 port and a USB Type-C port with 90 W USB PD and DP Alt Mode support. In addition to that, HKC was also showing a dual mode 1440p display capable of 540 Hz, or 1080 Hz at 720p. Unfortunately no other specs were provided for this demo unit.

AULA at the 2026 International CES showcased its latest gaming keyboards. We were greeted by the company's F87PRO V2 line of wireless keyboards in various color schemes, which feature gasketed mechanical key switches. There's also the AG60 super-compact 60% wireless keyboards with magnetic (Hall effect) key switches. The star attraction in the AULA booth is the L99, a keyboard with a 4-inch IPS LCD touchscreen replacing the NUM pad.

This display has a 320 x 480 pixels resolution, and comes with AULA's in-house designed user interface that lets you store macros, create custom layouts, configure the keyboard's lighting, remap keys, or simply serve as a touch-based NUM pad. There are also tiny applications such as a calculator, photo frame, alarm clock, etc. The screen can also be used like a touchpad (a pointing device), though it may not have the same precision of a real trackpad. The L99 packs a large 8,000 mAh battery to power the keyboard and this display.

Modue is a unique new stream deck-type input device we've come across in the 2026 International CES. As its name suggests, it is a modular input device consisting of various digital, analog, and touchscreen input modules that you join at the hip using magnetic interlocks. These modules include true-color touchscreens, reprogrammable dials, sliders, push-keys, and more. The central module with the touchscreen is the primary, with a USB-C connection, while the others are attachments. That's just the hardware part of the product. Modue has a slick UWP application that lets you program the various modules. The company provides downloadable extensions or plugins for various popular software and apps. There's also an SDK so you can develop one for your game or application.

REDRAGON (pronounced Red Dragon) brought a neat selection of new keyboards, keycap sets, and gaming headsets to the 2026 International CES. Starting things off, we have the REDRAGON Flekact Pro, a compact 65% format keyboard with three connectivity modes, programmable RGB backlight, and 5-layer acoustic padding. There's also an analog rocker that by default controls volume, but can be reprogrammed, and a tiny LCD that displays time by default, but can be reprogrammed as well. This basket-mounted mechanical keyboard comes with various keyswitch styles, and the switches themselves are replaceable, so you can have different keys strike differently.

The REDRAGON UCAL Magnetic is a wired compact keyboard with the company's next-generation UltraMag Epic magnetic switches that offer Hall effect-based modulated analog input. The keyswitches are suspended along a dual-module floating stricture. There's no LCD like on the Flekact Pro, but you get a reprogrammable knob. We were shown the UCAL Magnetic in a variety of formats besides 60%. The E-YOOSO Hz-82 is an 82-key magnetic axis keyboard that appears to be derived from REDRAGON's UltraMag Epic magnetic architecture. REDRAGON is an OEM for various regional gaming peripherals brands such as E-YOOSO.

As the Consumer Electronics Show of 2026 comes to an end, our field crew has done of a lot of work to keep readers updated. However, pre-CES expectations were high for several product launches, that sadly didn't happen. In today's piece we are ranking the top five things we didn't get at CES 2026, even with hopes of a product launch occurring during the show.

1) First on our non-weighted ranking is NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50-series "Blackwell" SUPER refresh. This mid-cycle was originally planned for late Q1 to early Q2 2026, with a possible announcement at CES 2026. The "SUPER" treatment was planned with denser GDDR7 memory modules with 3 GB of capacity per chip, increasing the memory configuration of the standard GeForce RTX 5070, RTX 5070 Ti, and RTX 5080. Initially, the RTX 5070 SUPER was planned with an upgrade to offer 18 GB, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER and RTX 5080 SUPER would each provide 24 GB of GDDR7 memory.

Over the past couple of years, we've seen a lot of new entries into the NAS market and another new player is Zettlab. The company ran a successful Kickstarter campaign, raising over US$1.48 million from 1820 backers. The company brought base tier D4 and D6 models to CES and these models have started to arrive with its backers about six months late, whereas the more powerful Ultra models seem to have ended up stuck in development hell, partially due to increased DRAM prices.

The D4 and D6 are based on the Rockchip RK3588 Arm SoC with four Cortex-A76 and four Cortex-A55 CPU cores, a 6 TOPS NPU and an Arm Mali G610 MC4 GPU. Zettlab has paired the RK3588 with 16 GB of LPDDR4x memory and 32 GB eMMC for the OS. Both SKUs have a 1 Gbps and a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port, one NVMe slot, and HDMI port, one Type-C and one Type-A USB 3.0 port, two USB 2.0 ports, one full-size SD card slot and one microSD card slot, as well as a 3.49-inch information display around the front. As the model name suggests, the D4 has four 3.5-inch drive bays and the D6 has six. Zettlab provides its own ZettOS which is said to be an AI first OS and the company was demoing its ZettAI at CES, but outside of that, it seems like ZettOS is a fairly basic NAS OS at the moment.

j5create dedicated its CES 2026 booth to high-end connectivity solutions that enhance modern IT infrastructure, particularly in video streaming at high resolutions and refresh rates. All new products are based on the Thunderbolt 5 series, offering 120 Gbps bandwidth, which is three times the capacity of the previous generation. The JTP5172 Triple 8K60 Docking Station supports 8K at 144 Hz and delivers 140 W of power. For those in need of an eGPU, the JTD5175 enclosure is compatible with NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5090 for gaming and AI applications. Real-time monitoring is featured in two products: the JCD3195 Dashboard Dock and JCDP3140 Powerbase Docking Station, both equipped with built-in displays for performance and power status checks.

At the CES 2026 International Show, Acemagic was one of the few companies to showcase mini PCs with the newly announced AMD "Gorgon Point" and Intel "Panther Lake" chips. In a Board 3 Dual-C mini PC inspired by the old retro aesthetic, Acemagic has crammed an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 chip with 12 cores and 24 threads, featuring an embedded Radeon 890M GPU with 16 compute units. With up to 64 GB of system memory, the Board 3 supports up to two 4 TB M.2 PCIe 5.0 NVMe drives, packing quite the punch in a body smaller than an ITX motherboard. At just 140x128x40.8 mm in size, the system is 0.73 liters in volume.

Iqunix is known for its Hall effect and mechanical keyboards, many of which have a unique aesthetics or some sort of neat feature like the magnetic dongle storage and custom mounting style of the Magi65 Pro. The brand appears to be bringing these design touches to a new lightweight gaming mouse soon enough. At CES 2026, the peripherals brand showed off a new gaming mouse called the Q101, which it bills as "coming soon." Not much is known about the Q101, although Iqunix has confirmed that it will be made from an aluminium alloy.

The new mouse, which has a symmetrical shape, foregoes the typical hole pattern often used to make gaming mice lighter, instead opting for an almost chaotic asymmetrical lattice structure. The shell itself will be made of a lightweight magnesium alloy, but part of the magnesium shell can be removed by the user and replaced with a translucent plastic window, giving the mouse a solid back and an interesting visual look. Not much is known about what sensor or MCU will be used, but Iqunix claims that the mouse will have 24,000 DPI and an "ultra-lightweight body," although again no weight specs were provided.
