GIGABYTE Enhances AI PC Vision at CES 2026
GIGABYTE, a leading global computer brand, has unveiled its innovative vision for AI-powered PCs during CES 2026. This year's showcase highlights a revamped GiMATE interface and a lineup of ultra-thin AI gaming laptops that promise enhanced user experience.
Enhanced GiMATE Interface
The GiMATE, GIGABYTE's proprietary AI agent, is evolving to offer smarter control over both hardware and software. With a renewed design, the GiMATE will provide real-time system information and intuitive voice command functionalities, streamlining user interaction and decision-making processes.
The updated GiMATE aims to deliver truly adaptive and user-centered computing across GIGABYTE's laptop range, signifying a commitment to offering cutting-edge technology that aligns with modern user needs. With the integration of advanced features, GiMATE will empower users to achieve optimal control over their devices.
AI Power Gear III
A standout feature is the introduction of the AI Power Gear III system, enhancing efficiency and flexibility. This innovative solution facilitates direct MUX switching between discrete and hybrid modes through GiMATE. Users can choose between several modes:
- - Auto Mode: Disables the GPU when on battery to prolong its life.
- - Optimus Mode: Provides smoother, balanced performance.
- - Eco Mode: Maximizes energy savings while plugged in or on battery.
GIGABYTE has also introduced new capabilities within GiMATE Creator, which now includes Qwen-Image. This addition allows users to generate visual content through English and Chinese prompts, significantly broadening accessibility for users worldwide. Additionally, the GiMATE Coder feature simplifies coding by enabling code generation, corrections, and optimizations in natural language, catering to both beginners and experienced developers alike.
