Korea’s biggest game show, G-Star, was held again this year. Some people pointed out that there were more and more mobile games there, but we were able to find more than enough PC games as well. There haven’t been many blockbuster videogames recently, so the Pearl Abyss booth collected a lot of attention.

Yes, the games are in the center of all interests, but we should also have a look at the specs of the featured computers and gaming gear. Especially, since demonstration booths have to have the games run fluently, companies bring along PCs with high specs - in other words, some dream systems for fellow gamers.

From time to time, there are systems that are really hard to see in normal life. Let’s have a look at the PCs in the demo areas at G-Star 2019.

This was the Legends of Runeterra demonstration zone of AfreecaTV. Not such high specs were expected, but they prepared PCs equipped with Intel i7-9700KF and RTX 2080. The mainboard was Aorus’ Elite Z390.
