Gigabyte Makes Bold Desktop Debut With AI-Driven PC Lineup at Computex

From PC Mag: Hardware announcements are already coming in hot and fast at Computex, but one bit of news from Gigabyte marks a significant change for the company, which is best known for its desktop components and gaming laptops: Gigabyte desktops are on the way.

The decision to move into the consumer desktop space might seem odd, given the decline of desktop computing in recent years, but Gigabyte is banking on one major factor: AI.

One of Gigabyte's most interesting Computex announcements is its first line of consumer desktop PCs built for gaming and AI. The first is the AI TOP 100 Z890, an ultrapowerful AI-focused desktop that features a liquid-cooled Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, and 128GB of DDR5 memory.

The AI TOP 100 Z890 targets small businesses, startups, academics, and AI enthusiasts. This product comprises many of Gigabyte's own AI TOP components, like the Z890 motherboard, AI-ready SSD storage, and a 1600-watt (W) PSU. Together with the silicon parts, these combine to create a powerful machine for AI productivity and 4K gaming.
