Maximum PC: The death of discrete sound cards may have been greatly exaggerated. Yes, it's true, today's onboard sound is far more capable than it was some 10 years ago, and with multi-core processors now the norm, there's really no need to invest in a discrete card for improved frame rates when gaming. However, discrete sound cards still push cleaner, crisper sound than onboard solutions, and that's exactly what Asus promises with its new ROG Xonar Phoebus Solo solution.
If you've been holding out on buying an RDNA 3 GPU then now might be the time to do so.
Asus revealed a new form of display called Asus Spatial Vision Technology, which renders high-quality images without 3D glasses.
interesting, better quality than the Nintendo 3ds hopefully
I wonder if it will play Blu-ray 3d or 3d vision games?
This is the future I am interested in - VR is neat, but hate needing goggles.
Nice to see Asus pushing the boundaries here, even if this version (likely) falls a bit flat
Apples and oranges there. VR and 3D are only marginally related. VR is about complete immersion.

Those specs make for a very serious gaming laptop, even with a silly gimmick.
do people still care about soundcards?
