IKEA Now Making Affordable Gaming Furniture In Collaboration With ASUS ROG source: https://geekculture.co/ikea-now-making-affordable-gaming-furniture-in-collaboration-with-asus-rog/ IKEA is probably not the first name that comes to mind when it comes to PC gaming and accessories, with the likes of Secretlab and Omnidesk dominating that space. But it appears that the Swedish furniture maker is venturing into new horizons with a new range of gaming furniture and accessories in a new partnership with ASUS ROG. IKEA first announced the news earlier this week, stating that it will be teaming up with the Taiwanese PC giant to produce a new line of “affordable” gaming chairs, tables and other accessories. This new range of roughly 30 products will be launched in China in February 2021, and will be available for the rest of the world come October 2021. “There are a lot of existing conventions about gaming which are often stereotypical or negative, for example, all the games are built on violence, gaming is asocial and it is predominantly a men’s activity. In fact, figures show that gaming is among the most truly cross-demographic activities, and it can improve an individual’s mental health and general well-being,” says Ewa Rychert, Global Business Leader of Workspace. “We hope that the new gaming range will help to embrace and enable the benefits of gaming in life at home.,” ”ROG is thrilled to be partnering with IKEA to create the ultimate gaming lifestyle for gamers. Gamers have always dreamed of the perfect gaming space that is both comfortably functional and enables full immersion in games,” says Kris Huang, General Manager of ASUS Gaming Gear and Accessories Business Unit. “With years of experience delivering innovative gaming solutions to gamers, ROG has a strong understanding of the gaming community. Together with IKEA as an expert in home furnishing, we envision that this collaboration will create synergies that empower gamers to build the gaming space they have always imagined in the comfort of their own homes.” What exactly IKEA and ASUS ROG will come up with for their new line remains to be seen, though we can imagine their new chairs, for example, could be at least half the price of the likes of a Secretlab or Royale one, which typically retail for about S$400 and up. Speaking of gaming chairs, we’ve seen just what ASUS ROG could do with its very own Chariot RGB gaming chair, so we imagine IKEA will be using that as a blueprint of sorts.

https://www.techradar.com/sg/reviews/asus-rog-phone-2 The Asus ROG Phone 2, the successor to the gaming-centric ROG Phone from last year, is here. The first iteration was as great a gaming phone as it was a regular handset, but the ROG Phone 2 is bigger and packs in more power than ever. While the jury is still out on whether we actually need gaming smartphones, coupled with the slow development in the mobile gaming industry, the Asus ROG Phone 2 continues to cater to the existing niche. And enthusiasts should look at it like a gaming device that can provide an ultimate experience when it comes to all things gaming. It's not just the ROG Phone 2 itself either, as the smartphone comes with a bunch of cool accessories aimed squarely at enhancing the gaming experience by a huge margin over rival handsets such as the Razer Phone 2 or Red Magic ASUS ROG PHONE 2 SPECS Weight: 240g Dimensions: 170.99 x 77.6 x 9.78mm OS: Android 9.0 Pie Screen size: 6.59-inch, 120Hz refresh rate Resolution: 2340 x 1080 (FHD+) CPU: Snapdragon 855 Plus GPU: Adreno 640 RAM: 8GB/12GB Storage: 128/512GB Battery: 6,000mAh Rear camera: 48MP + 13MP Front camera: 24MP With a 6.59-inch AMOLED display boasting a Full HD+ (2340 x 1080 pixels) resolution, the ROG Phone 2 provides more play area than the original ROG Phone. The refresh rate of the display has been bumped up to 120Hz (from 90Hz) with a one millisecond response time and 240Hz touch response time - the first smartphone to feature this. The screen can reproduce up to 108% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and is also 10bit HDR certified, which means your games should look great. The on-paper specs translate into a high-end screen to play games on as the higher refresh rate makes for a superior viewing experience that’s as good for gaming as it is for content consumption. The front has noticeable bezels around the screen, which gives it a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. Asus believes that a full-screen display brings in uninvited touch inputs along the edges, so the bezels provide a space to rest fingers without them interfering with the action on-screen. Under the hood Asus revealed the ROG Phone 2 would feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset clocked at 2.96GHz. The octa-core CPU paired with the Adreno 640 GPU is supported by up to 12GB of RAM and 128GB/512GB of UFS3.0 storage. Props to Asus for building the best phone that the gaming niche has ever seen.

I'm looking to get this one. Any one saw the pricing in SITEX? I tried looking at HWZ, but no info. Seriously this is the best tablet in the market at this moment.............. Thanks!

Saw the review today in the papers, looks like a good alternative with loads of function

anyone waiting? Quite expensive wor. http://www.gsmarena.com/asus_mwc_2013-review-899.php

Yesterday got this after knowing about it from another forum. Sxxxhub is offering this LTE tablet free if you sign up their MaxValue Elite plan at $51 for 12 months which is bundled with 11GB of 4G data monthly. I believe the tablet need no introduction for those interested in tablets. It is a quad-core CPU with latest spec including a detachable keyboard that double as battery. Its lesser brother TF300TG which is 3G only is being retailed at $899 currently, and you are getting it FREE with the promotion. The normal selling price of 6month old TF300TG is about $600 to $700, and you are getting a brandnew TF300TL together with 12 months of LTE data plan thrown in for just $620. You could even sell the tablet at $800 and still earn a bit with the LTE plan free for 12months! For comparison, Sxxxtel offers the same thing at $500 with 24 months of $50 subscription with 10GB of LTE data monthly. http://www.starhub.com/content/promotions/...obileelite.html For record, I have nothing to gain from this deal as I do not work for any telco. Do hurry up as there is limited stock from what I was told. Cheers.

I did a check on my Asus K43S and it shows that it is running on two graphic cards, how is that possilbe?

Continuing its cooperation with the famous Italian supercar maker, Asus unwrapped its latest Lamborghini-branded laptops at this week's Computex 2010 convention in Tapei, Taiwan. The new ASUS-Lamborghini VX6 comes with a 12.1-inch screen while its VX7 sibling features a larger 15.6-inch screen. Both laptops feature a sexy-looking glossy case inspired from Lamborghini's supermodels, but the real eye-catcher is the bigger VX7 with its Gallardo / Murcielago themed rear section. Other than the Raging Bull-inspired design, both laptops come with a Bang & Olufsen sound system with the smaller VX6 featuring a 1366

Any members here using the above care to share your experience here? Thank You.

Hope fellow MCFs can advice me on this choice. As SITEX is coming up this week, I am seriously looking into buying a Netbook for my self. I narrowed down to the Lenovo S10 or the Asus Eee PC 1000H....and I can't make up my mind which to buy though the price diff is not a big matter. My main criteria are: 1) Big storage space (>100GB) 2) Min 10" screen 3) Damn good webcam (Though I must say that the Dell Mini is the best when I compare against the above 2) 4) Good batt life (Min 3 hours) Hope to hear some good advices. You can also recommend other models. Thanks a million.

Hi ppl I have a new toy and need to know if any of you bros have the same thing and could share with me or us who need to know.. by the way is mapking free and any pros and cons using it? Thanks in advance

While looking around for a pocket PC in Harvey Norman, I came across ASUS Eee PC which looks something like a cheap/small laptop. It costs as low as a pocket PC (price is less than $600). Has anyone used it here? How is your experience with this unit?
