Singapore-based gaming hardware brand Razer has announced a strategic transformation into an artificial intelligence (AI) company, revealing a range of AI-focused products and significant investment plans during CES 2026. Partnering with Canadian AI chip startup Tenstorrent, Razer introduced its first compact AI accelerator device based on Tenstorrent’s Wormhole n150 chip, marking the company’s entry into edge AI and generative AI markets.

CES 2026 has kicked off amid severe DRAM supply constraints that are driving up PC end-user costs. Phison is promoting its exclusive aiDAPTIV solution, combined with integrated GPU (iGPU) technology to power new AI PCs. Due to cost and supply limitations in PC applications, end users may have to downgrade DRAM specifications. Phison’s AI solid-state drive (SSD) solution compensates for performance loss, effectively upgrading systems into AI-capable PCs. At least five PC brands have reportedly partnered with Phison, which plans “strategic supply” support to meet their storage demands.

Intel unveiled its new Intel Core Ultra series 3 processors, codenamed Panther Lake, at CES 2026. These are the first AI PC platforms built on Intel’s 18A process technology and designed and manufactured in the US. Intel announced that over 200 new devices from global partners will launch based on this widely adopted AI PC platform with a comprehensive worldwide supply.
