"You still set up actions in Stream Deck app the same way you always have. MCP adds a new way to trigger them," Elgato said in its announcement.

One area where the BlackShark V3 Pro particularly impressed me was the sound isolation and active noise-canceling. While those aren't always standout features on gaming headsets, these are built for serious gaming, so tuning out any extra noise, whether that's a cheering stadium or a barking dog, could help give you an edge as the end of your round of Counter-Strike 2 closes in.

It only seems right that cloud gaming should welcome virtual pilots, and that's definitely now the case if GeForce Now is your streaming platform of choice. One of the most frequently requested features from its community according to NVIDIA, flight control support has now been added to its GeForce Now offering, meaning you can live your Top Gun fantasies without worrying about your rig buckling under the pressure.

With its ProArt lineup, ASUS has commendably addressed a glaring hole in the PC market by targeting video editors and other creative pros. Its latest model even uses a popular camera marque in its name: the ProArt GoPro Edition PX13. It's a true co-branding exercise, with GoPro-like styling, a dedicated GoPro hotkey, mil-spec durability for extreme outdoor users and 12 months of GoPro's Cloud Plus Premium.

If you're an aspiring (or successful) streamer looking to upgrade your production value, the Elgato Stream Deck family is an excellent way to put your most important controls at your fingertips. Right now you can score the upgraded Elgato Stream Deck +, with eight buttons, an LCD screen, and four knobs, for just $160, a $40 markdown from its usual price.

The Corsair Galleon 100 SD didn't just come out of the ether. The new full-size mechanical keyboard with a Stream Deck fused to its side is the result of a lot of things coming together over the years. Corsair's gaming business is more refined than ever, and Stream Deck's wide ecosystem of plug-ins makes the dedicated hardware useful to just about anyone, even if they have little interest in streaming. The fusion makes sense.

For almost as long as phones have been around, people have wanted those phones to also be laptops. It seems so simple: Your phone has plenty of computing power, access to all your apps and data, an always-on connection. The only problem? Your phone's screen is too small for many tasks, and so is its keyboard. Or at least, they were, until foldable phones made it possible to carry a truly gigantic screen in your pocket. Now all bets are off.

The dock supports HDMI 2.1 output with up to 4K@120Hz, plus VRR, FreeSync, and G-Sync. It's made to deliver an incredibly smooth and immersive gaming or movie playback experience without screen tearing or noticeable lag. You'll enjoy sharp, vibrant visuals on compatible displays for all your favorite titles. There's 100W PD 3.0 fast charging support, too. The Steam Deck dock delivers up to 85W to your host device,

If you're weighing your options, consider some Presidents Day offers on iBuyPower's pre-built desktops, including the $1,899 RDY Element 9 Pro R07 and the $2,099.99 Slate - both of which are stocked with high-end AMD processors and GPUs that can tear through most games at 1440p with fast frame rates. They also come with 32GB of DDR5 RAM and 2TB of storage, along with a mouse and keyboard.

A keyboard is more than the sum of its parts. To have a truly great typing experience, a lot has to come together-each aspect of a keyboard needs to be designed (or selected) with the rest of it in mind. But not every keyboard needs to strive for a great typing experience. Sometimes, they just need to get the job done. Take, for example, the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro.

8BitDo just revealed a new gamepad at CES and it's a doozy. The Ultimate 3E Controller for XBox is a modular marvel that should suit just about any configuration preference. That's because many elements are swappable. There are two different button modules, each with a different feel when pressing down. There are several joystick options, including standard, tall and thick-neck designs. The controller even ships with a pair of D-pad options. One is intended for precision and the other for "smooth, directional rolls."

As a remote professional, I can tell you firsthand: a good webcam matters. A lot. You don't want to look-or sound-grainy when you're talking to management, clients, or collaborators. And you definitely don't want to constantly crane your neck or shift in your chair just to stay in frame. So when I saw Insta360 unveil its latest webcam lineup at CES 2026, I was genuinely interested-especially because these models were clearly designed with remote workers in mind, not just casual video calls.

The X5 Alteron controller gets the best of both worlds: GameSir's ergonomic engineering that makes it the first choice for gamers, and Hyperkin's knack for designing retro controllers. What sets the modular controller apart is the swappable module system that allows gamers to completely change the layout from symmetrical to asymmetrical thumbsticks, to changing the D-pad and face buttons. Designer: GameSir and Hyperkin

The cheapest of the three QD-OLEDs announced is the HyperX Omen OLED 27q, a 27-inch 1440p model with a 240Hz refresh rate and variable refresh rate with Nvidia G-Sync compatibility, plus AMD FreeSync Premium. It has a DisplayPort 1.4 input, two HDMI 2.1 ports, and a headphone jack. It'll ship with an adjustable stand (supporting height, tilt, swivel, and pivot tweaks), though it has a 100 x 100mm VESA mount for folks who'd prefer to use a monitor arm.

"I cover a little bit of just about everything, from the FCC to AI shopping tools to Linux." Before joining our news team, they wrote weekend news for PC Gamer and did reviews, news, features, and guides for Laptop Mag, along with some stories for Tom's Guide, IGN, TechRadar, and XDA. "I've been reading (and watching) The Verge since I was in high school," they add, "so it's pretty exciting to be part of the team now."

The RG GO1, which doesn't have a price or specific release date yet, features a 2.5-inch IPS LCD screen in the center of the controller. This can be used for various tasks, including reprogramming buttons and turning on rapid fire settings. The just-revealed controller also includes heartbeat sensors in the grips. Why? Anbernic says it will let you "monitor your well-being during intense sessions."
