CES and Computex 2026 delivered one of the more substantial gaming-hardware waves in recent memory, with Hall Effect switches, ultra-high-DPI sensors, and genuinely new display tech all showing up across keyboards, mice, headsets, and monitors.

Keyboards

The Gigabyte Aorus K10 Infinity leans hard into customization — tactical magnetic switches with trigger-point actuation adjustable in 0.1mm steps, an 8,000Hz polling rate, and a 3.1-inch OLED touchscreen for switching profiles, actuation settings, and RGB on the fly. Corsair’s CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 takes the compact 60% route with MGX HYPERDRIVE CORE magnetic Hall Effect switches (0.2–3.8mm adjustable actuation, 0.1mm Rapid Trigger reset) plus FlashTap SOCD support. Razer’s Huntsman V3 TKL 8KHz ($170) brings second-gen Analog Optical switches with the same 8,000Hz HyperPolling and Rapid Trigger/Snap Tap combo the brand’s been pushing across its lineup.

Mice

Corsair’s Nightsword v2 Wireless SD pairs its Marksman S optical sensor with up to 33,000 DPI and a claimed 47 hours of battery life even at full 8,000Hz polling. ASUS ROG showed two standouts: the Harpe II Extreme Edition ($259.99) with a new Aimpoint Pro 65K sensor and SpeedNova 8K wireless, and a Computex reveal pushing sensor specs further still — 65,000 DPI with 24-karat gold accents, more a showcase piece than a mainstream option.

Headsets

Corsair’s HS35 v3 line covers both ends: a $49.99 wired version with custom-tuned 50mm drivers and a standard 3.5mm jack for PC, console, or mobile, and a $79.99 wireless version (2.4GHz or Bluetooth) rated for up to 30 hours of battery at 250g.

Monitors

This year’s display tech was arguably the bigger story. MSI’s MPG OLED 322URDX36 claims to be the first 4K monitor running at 360Hz, with a triple-mode design that switches to 540Hz at 1440p or 680Hz at 1080p. A separate 27“ mini-LED entry claims a first for 5K multi-mode support — 5K/165Hz, 4K/220Hz, or 1440p/330Hz depending on the mode selected. And Alienware’s AW3926QW brings 5K OLED to the 21:9 ultrawide format at 165Hz, a combination that wasn’t really available before this generation.

Why it matters

Hall Effect and analog optical switches have gone from a niche enthusiast feature to something showing up across entry-level and premium keyboards alike, and the monitor category in particular pushed further than expected — multi-mode panels that let you trade resolution for refresh rate on the fly are becoming a real standard rather than a gimmick. Expect most of this hardware to start hitting shelves through the back half of 2026.
