Below is an overview of some of the new hardware from Gigabyte that can be seen at CES 2020. This includes AORUS SSDs, Designare DDR4 modules and SSDs, as well as world's first watercooled external GPU.
GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co. Ltd, a leading manufacturer of motherboards and graphics cards, will unveil a new series of affordable GIGABYTE gaming monitors; a trio of mobile and PCIe-based memory storage solutions; and the first water-cooled eGPU at CES 2020.

The new additions round out GIGABYTE’s portfolio of technology products, which caters to PC enthusiasts, gamers and content developers.

GIGABYTE Gaming Monitors
GIGABYTE’s new gaming monitors offer exclusive gaming features and top-end hardware specifications at a more attractive price point. Models range from 27 to 32 inches and include both IPS (flat-panel) with ultra-wide 178-degree vertical and horizontal viewing angles to VA (curved panel), which offer the best contrast and image depth.
Screen resolutions in the new GIGABYTE series range from FHD to QHD (quad high definition) with 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution. All new GIGABYTE monitors are also compatible with AMD’s FreeSync and Nvidia’s G-Sync technology, which promise a buttery-smooth experience free of stuttering, or screen tearing. High-performance systems often experience screen or frame tearing, which is caused by the refresh rate of the monitor being out of sync with the frames produced by the graphics card. The new GIGABYTE gaming monitors promise flicker-free gaming with no lag.

GIGABYTE’s exclusive Auto-Update feature will automatically run instant system checkups and updates once the GIGABYTE monitors are connected to the PC. Users no longer need to take tedious steps prior to installs or encounter failures because the monitors are constantly updating and troubleshooting themselves.
