Press release

Aorus, the emerging force of hardcore PC gaming hardware and gears powered by Gigabyte, is heading to Computex TAIPEI 2017 with its strong gaming presence readied to wow the international crowd once again. This year marks the special occasion of the Aorus brand covering all bases for gamers worldwide. With a cohesive gaming effort based on the "Team Up. Fight On." brand spirit, Aorus has risen from the gaming laptop line and branched out further in 2017 to include motherboards, graphics cards, gaming peripherals, and more, delivering a full ecosystem of gaming products under one single brand.

Experience the future of gaming

Taking the center stage is the Aorus 720-degree motion simulator located right in the heart of the booth. With the overwhelming popularity received from the racing simulator from last year, Aorus takes VR back to Computex again to give visitors a taste of what the future of gaming is like. Visitors will have the rare opportunity to step inside this highly interactive racing cockpit and plunge right into the virtual realm developed by Aorus. Combining VR technology with the 720-degree simulator and the futuristic racing game Redout powered by the Aorus solution, it is guaranteed a fully immersive 5D VR experience that will leave everyone in awe.

All gaming products under one roof

A wide spectrum of gaming hardware from Aorus will team up for display on this year's Computex show floor in the TWTC Hall 1, Booth D0002. Aorus is set to highlight its latest development in gaming laptops, premiering the 17-inch top-of-the-line X9, as well as refined versions of existing models X5 and X7.

Aorus extends its gaming frontier further with the new X299 Aorus Gaming Series motherboards. With support for digital LEDs, triple M.2s, and the just-released Intel Optane Technology, the X299 Aorus Gaming Series will take the role as king of the new enthusiast platform. On the graphics end, Aorus will debut the GTX 1070 Gaming Box, a plug-and-play external graphics enclosure with GTX 1070 graphics card embedded for transforming any Thunderbolt 3-enabled laptops into a powerful gaming battle station right away. A full line of graphics cards powered by the latest GeForce and Radeon GPUs will be on display as well, featuring GIGABYTE exclusive technologies for delivering both ultimate performance and user customization.

Aorus will also showcase gaming peripherals for serious gaming needs, with highlight on the AK710 waterproof mechanical keyboard and mobile gaming ear buds Aorus E1. Others like Aorus gaming mouse, CPU cooler, and PC chassis are going to dazzle the visitors as well with their gamer-centric designs and personalized styling through full-spectrum RGB.

A journey into Aorus design

In the meantime, Aorus will host an invite-only exhibition at the private VIP suite in Taipei 101 with a dedicated room showcasing the Aorus family and its design concept. The invited guests will be given not only a panoramic view of the city, but also a unique insight into Aorus' laptop design, past, present and future. "We take great pride in ensuring both a high-end feel through top-of-the-line materials as well as a sober, stylish atypical-for-gaming type of look on the AORUS lineup of laptops. I look forward to explaining our design philosophy and what goes into an Aorus product," commented Ray Ho, Head of Design at Aorus.
