Moving From Console To PC? Here’s How You Can Get Started!

Moving to a PC can be an intimidating affair for long-term console gamers. Here are some of the key things to look out for in 2024!

The HYTE Keeb TKL And A CNVS To Go With It

HYTE Keeb TKL

The HYTE Keeb TKL is a premium-grade gaming keyboard that offers 1000Hz polling, lubed ‘Fluffy Lavender’ switches and 155 pixel qRGB lighting making it one of the most unique design takes on what a modern high-end gaming keyboard should look like.
HYTE CNVS Play Mat

The HYTE CNVS Play Mat is a high-end gaming mat that offers enough space for both, a full-sized keyboard and a mouse to boot. It comes with a non-slip base, a 50-pixel qRGB array for customizable lighting and a detachable USB-C to C cable for power.

Users looking to deck out their desks with an excellent RGB-lit gaming keyboard should really consider the HYTE KEEB TKL, which offers adjustable typing angles, pre-lubed linear switches, and dual onboard profiles. Users can customize their KEEB thanks to the ability to use other mechanical switches (the KEEB comes with a 5-pin North Facing Hot-Swap PCB) and as many as an unmatched 155 RGB lighting zones on the keyboard, something that HYTE calls its qRGB array.

The qRGB array can be complemented by the HYTE CNVS Play Mat, which offers support for 50 zones (pixels) of the same while offering plenty of space, a smooth surface, and a non-stick base in play. The CNVS is also water and stain-resistant while being easy to move around thanks to a detachable USB-C cord that also comes with an adapter for users wanting to use a USB-A port.

Both the KEEB and the CNVS are compatible with HYTE’s Nexus Link software but if you are already using HYTE’s Y70 Touch Infinite above or the THICC Q60 below, chances are you already have it running from the get-go.

HYTE’s THICC Q60 AIO: All Eyes On Display

HYTE THICC Q60 AIO Cooler

The HYTE THICC Q60 AIO Cooler is a performance-grade CPU cooler that comes with a mammoth 5-inch display making it one of the largest LCD AIO options on the market.It also comes with a dual-pump design that can push up to 4500 RPM for demanding CPUs even as it offers one of the best radiator and fan combinations available in the 240mm segment.

Arguably saving the best for last, the HYTE THICC Q60 AIO offers one of the largest screens in the business, delivering on its promise with a 5-inch ultraslim IPS display that refreshes at an impressive 60Hz refresh rate (by AIO display standards) while leveraging a high resolution 720 x 1280 display that can be configured via HYTE’s Nexus Link software.

There is considerably more to the HYTE THICC Q60 than just looks however: it offers a dual-pump design that can be adjusted from 2000 to as much as 4500 RPM depending on your PC’s thermal needs even as it runs quieter than the competition.

Part of the reason why the Q60 is such a potent player and priced for perfection is that it delivers on the latter by leveraging one of the thickest radiators in the business, allowing it to do more in a 240mm form factor than most 360mm alternatives with a 52mm thick radiator as part of its offering.

At $200 (factoring in a $100 on-site discount at the time of writing), it isn’t the cheapest cooler in the business, but it is one of the most performant options out there, coming with a concealed cable harness to allow for a cleaner looking installation and an industry-leading 6-year warranty which means it should see multiple CPU upgrades for most users through with relative ease.

PSA: For those that are looking for a 360mm cooler, HYTE announced at CES their THICC Q80 Trio AIO cooler, which offers even more cooling capabilities that is now paired with a 360mm radiator, is now available for pre-order at $319.99
