Gigabyte AORUS at Gamescom 2026: PCs, Monitors, 16

Gigabyte is bringing a big AORUS-focused showcase to Gamescom 2026, turning its booth into part hardware showroom and part playable community space. Visitors can explore a lineup that runs from complete gaming PCs and monitors to unusual concepts like a PC case with a built-in 16-inch display—while also getting chances to compete in events tied to major esports and earn prizes along the way.

Where to find the AORUS hardware and events

The main AORUS presence is located in Hall 8, C050. Gigabyte says the booth is designed for more than static browsing: multiple stations are set up for hands-on play, and a stage program runs during the show. If you’re planning a targeted visit, the company recommends checking the daily schedule at the stand for what’s happening that day.

Playable challenges, stage competitions, and giveaways

Gigabyte and AORUS have reserved a large portion of the floor for community activity, including both structured challenges and open competition at different points on the booth. One featured attraction is a VALORANT challenge where visitors can face off against professionals.

Gigabyte is also highlighting its role in the esports scene, noting that it became an official hardware partner for the VALORANT Champions Tour EMEA this year. Prizes are tied to the VALORANT challenge, and additional booth activities include items such as mouse pads, bags, and other show floor giveaways depending on the specific event.

The stage program includes competitive matches such as Rocket League in a 4v4 format and Street Fighter. For players who prefer racing, the booth sets up a Forza Horizon 6 racing rig where visitors can attempt a best time and compare results on a leaderboard. Across multiple days, content creators are also scheduled to appear for additional matchups.

APC case with a 16-inch display: AORUS C510 Glass Infinity

One of the most eye-catching hardware ideas on display is the AORUS C510 Glass Infinity. While small screens mounted inside PC cases aren’t new, Gigabyte’s approach goes further by integrating a 16-inch panel intended to function as a monitor substitute.

Gigabyte says the display can be mounted on either side of the case and used either as a primary monitor or as an additional screen. The company also claims the panel can be set up vertically, though horizontal orientation is expected to be the more common layout.

AORUS complete gaming PCs—and what’s coming next

In the center of the showcase, multiple AORUS gaming desktops are on display. The current, more compact build is positioned as a relatively complete system where the overall platform experience is emphasized over spotlighting individual parts.

Gigabyte also frames the lineup as a stepping stone to bigger configurations later in the year. In the fourth quarter, larger and more powerful versions are expected to follow, including the X870 Aorus Infinity. This model is described as using an AM5 motherboard with two DDR5 slots for higher memory speeds, plus Gigabyte’s X3D Turbo Mode 2.0 for Ryzen X3D processors.

Tandem-WOLED gaming monitor at 280 Hz: AORUS Elite FO27Q28G

Gigabyte is also showing off the AORUS ELITE FO27Q28G, a 27-inch monitor built around a glossy QHD tandem-WOLED panel rated for 280 Hz refresh. The display is listed with DisplayHDR True Black 500 support and 99.5% DCI-P3 color coverage.

On the feature side, Gigabyte highlights gaming-oriented tools including a Tactical HUD and a crosshair option.

External GeForce RTX 5060 Ti for a notebook: AORUS RTX 5060 Ti AI Box

Another standout setup is an AORUS RTX 5060 Ti AI Box paired with a notebook. The concept is an external enclosure that contains a GeForce RTX 5060 Ti with 16 GiB of VRAM, connecting to a compatible system through Thunderbolt 5.

Gigabyte’s framing is aimed at users who want extra graphics power without building a second desktop PC. The company also says the box is targeted toward creators and local AI workloads, not just gaming. The enclosure includes additional ports and supports charging a connected notebook with up to 100 watts.

OLED keyboard with a split spacebar: AORUS K10 Infinity

For input hardware, the AORUS K10 Infinity combines magnet-based switches with 0.1-mm adjustment and up to an 8,000 Hz polling rate. The more distinctive part is the 3.1-inch OLED touch display and a three-part spacebar design.

Gigabyte says profiles, lighting, and trigger behavior can be configured through the display and via the GiMATE Web Edition.

More AORUS builds and components

Beyond the headline items, Gigabyte is also bringing additional PC builds, notebooks, monitors, and components to the booth, including systems with wood-style aesthetics, stealth-inspired visuals, and an AORUS-ARI anime look.

And if you’re attending Gamescom 2026, Gigabyte’s message is straightforward: the company is welcoming visitors at Hall 8, C050 for hands-on challenges, racing events, and giveaways alongside the hardware reveals.
