News Best of CES 2025: Performance and Productivity

MSI teasing a "Lightning" return with the RTX 50 series Special Edition cards is easily a video card highlight. They're using a custom PCB of some sort as both versions have 2 sets of stacked fans which means there's some sort of opening on each end like the Founder's 5090 has. While I've not had one of those in the past I'm always a huge fan of any custom PCB model's engineering.
 
About the HP "smart monitor": Earlier today on another forum, we were discussing how to use "dumb" computer monitors as TVs, because we were fed up with all the "smart TV" features that don't work as expected or don't respect your privacy.

I remember thinking the Lightning models for the GTX-780 and R9-290X were so awesome back in the day. Here's to cool engineering + design from the new Lightning.
