Asus at Computex 2026, artificial intelligence changes PCs and gaming

Under the spotlight of Taipei, the real structural turning point coincides with the debut of the new ASUS ProArt P16, P14 and the respective Mini PC ecosystem, machines designed to definitively archive the concept of the cloud and bring up to 1 petaflop of AI processing directly to the user’s desk. The credit goes to the new NVIDIA RTX Spark architecture, a superchip that combines a 20-core Grace CPU with a 6,144-core Blackwell GPU, supported by up to 128 GB of unified memory.

For the 20th anniversary of the Republic of Gamers brand, ASUS introduced the limited Edition 20 collection, an overview of elite components and systems that celebrates two decades of innovation in extreme gaming. The spearhead of this line is the ROG G1000 Edition 20 ultra-tower desktop, equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 processor and ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card. Among the most surprising innovations presented on the Taipei stage is the new ROG XBOX Ally 120 Hz, capable of reaching a peak brightness of 1,400 nits. The real coup of the bundle, however, is the integration with the exclusive smart glasses. By connecting them directly to the console, players can project the gameplay directly in front of their eyes, transforming the Ally X20 into a portable, ultra-technological multimedia hub.

Kayin Chang, Commercial BU and GTM Head at ASUS, explained how the company is bringing the innovation of iconic lines like ROG and Zenbook to the business PC market. At the heart of this change is the local AI revolution, an ecosystem that leverages small language models running directly on-device and ExpertGuardian security systems to ensure efficiency and data protection directly on the hardware, reducing cloud dependency and costs. Marco Astori, Country Manager of ASUS Italy, focused attention on the concept of Private AI at the service of corporate sovereignty. According to Astori, the future of business innovation necessarily passes through the implementation of advanced models capable of processing complex data directly on company PCs, guaranteeing the optimization of daily flows and total security of information assets.
