The 12-core version of the Panther Lake iGPU is obviously the one to watch, jumping core count over Lunar Lake by 50 percent and giving a huge graphics boost to thin-and-light laptops (and possibly even PC gaming handhelds, currently dominated by AMD's Ryzen Z series). In addition to the usual power boost that newer chips get, the Xe3 series is getting new intelligent bias control powers for more game-specific resource management, x3 and x4 frame generation for all games that support XeSS 2, and a handful of other optimizations.

That's an incredible price for a mouse with a maximum DPI of 26,000, offering extreme responsiveness and speed that'll give you an edge over your competition no matter what game you're playing. Other nice features include 11 programmable buttons, ergonomic grip, HyperScroll Tilt Wheel, and Chroma RGB lighting. It's wired-only though, which might be a deal-breaker for wireless gear fans.
We reviewed the Razer Basilisk V3 a while back and it utterly won us over, earning a 4.5-star rating and our Editors' Choice award. We appreciated its "faultless performance" and gorgeous RGB lighting, as well as the HyperScroll Tilt Wheel that makes it easy to zip through content. The numerous programmable buttons are also great for both gaming customizations and productivity macros.
If you want a newer, wireless version of this mouse, the Razer Basilisk V3 X HyperSpeed is on sale for $37.99 (or 46% off from $69.99). Otherwise, act fast and snag the Razer Basilisk V3 for $29.99 while you can!
No other budget-tier gaming mouse can match this for the price

The Zenbook A14 is no powerhouse, In fact its Snapdragon X Plus processor is definitely on the pokey side compared to the latest from AMD and Intel, especially if you want to play games. But it's designed to last almost forever on battery — 20 hours or so — and do it while weighing under one kilogram (2.16 pounds). Other highlights include a roomy and vibrant 1920×1200 OLED screen, a decent selection of ports (two USB-C, one USB-A, full-sized HDMI), and an IR webcam for Windows Hello face unlock. My favorite feature is the stone-like "Ceraluminum" finish of the body, giving it a unique sandy color and a slightly grippy feel.
Qualcomm's first-gen Snapdragon laptops still struggle with gaming, and with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, this slinky little laptop isn't going to handle massive, processor-intensive workloads. But it's served me very well over the last few months, offering up a great browser machine with solid typing that won't weigh me down in a laptop bag. For a more thorough breakdown check out the full PCWorld review, but keep in mind that's a model with more RAM and a slightly faster processor.
