Forget dedicated AI buttons—MSI just built a holographic AI companion 🤖 directly into your next gaming PC 🎮.

MSI’s newest gaming desktop, the MEG Vision X2 AI+ 🖥️, takes the current industry trend of adding AI to everything and makes it literal. Instead of just relying on software features or a dedicated keyboard button ⌨️, MSI has built a secondary display directly into the front of the PC case to house a virtual assistant 💁‍♂️.

The company calls this cylindrical screen the AI Holostage ⚪. It serves as a physical home for LuckyClaw, an AI companion that runs locally on the machine. According to MSI, you can use natural voice 🗣️ or text commands 💬 to ask LuckyClaw to adjust your system’s performance profiles ⚡, change monitor settings 🖥️, or swap out your RGB lighting colors 🌈.

If you aren’t interested in using MSI’s default mascot, the software also supports custom third-party avatars 🎭. It is basically a voice-activated settings menu with a face 👤. MSI says the software will get updates over time to add more features 🔄.

MSI MEG Vision X2 AI+ ✨

If you look past the built-in screen, the MEG Vision X2 AI+ is simply a very high-end gaming PC 🔝. It can be configured with Intel’s Core Ultra processors 🧠 and up to an Nvidia RTX 5090 graphics card 👾. The system can reach up to 3400 TOPS of total AI performance 🚀.

To keep the hardware cool, the desktop includes a 360mm liquid cooler ❄️💧. The interior design relies on MSI’s Project Zero motherboard standard, which moves all the power connectors to the back of the board. This hides the cable clutter and keeps the inside of the case looking neat 🧹 behind the glass panel 🧊.

The rest of the specifications include modern standards like PCIe 5.0 storage 💾, DDR5 memory, Wi-Fi 7 📶, 5G Ethernet, and Thunderbolt 5 support ⚡.

MSI has not announced a release date 📅 or pricing details yet 💸.

In related news, MSI has recently launched a 425Hz 1440p gaming monitor 🖥️ that costs less than $330 💵.

✍️ Lenovo is rewriting the pre-built playbook with its new Legion Blade 7000K, a high-performance 🧟‍♂️ “Frankenstein” desktop that pairs a laptop-grade i7 processor with the 🎮 RTX 5060 and a bizarre 🧠 24GB of RAM.

Lenovo has added a new configuration to its Legion Blade 7000K desktop PC lineup, combining an Intel Core i7-13650HX processor with an Nvidia RTX 5060 graphics card. ⚙️ The system is currently available with a promotional launch price of 💰 9,999 yuan ($1,478), and will eventually shift to a standard retail price of 🏷️ 10,499 yuan ($1,552).

📋 Lenovo Legion Blade 7000K Specifications

🧐 The most interesting part of this build is the choice of processor. The Core i7-13650HX is actually a mobile chip designed for high-end laptops, though it is built on repurposed desktop silicon. 🔬 Lenovo has opted to use it here inside a standard desktop tower. It features a 🚀 14-core, 20-thread configuration, which is split into six performance cores and eight efficiency cores.

The chip also includes a 24MB Smart Cache and reaches a peak turbo frequency of ⚡ 4.90 GHz. It operates at a 55W base power but can draw up to 🔌 157W when pushed to its maximum turbo consumption. Lenovo paired this processor with Nvidia’s RTX 5060, a graphics card that handles standard 1080p and 1440p gaming, as well as basic video encoding and 🤖 AI tasks.

For memory, the system comes with 🐏 24GB of DDR5 RAM running at 5600MHz. That is an unusual amount for a pre-built PC, since they usually ship with either 16GB or 32GB. 🧩 It gives you a bit more room for multitasking than a standard 16GB setup without making the computer as expensive as a 32GB model. For storage, it includes a standard 🗄️ 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD.

🏗️ The case design is functional and sticks to the established look of the Legion brand. The chassis comes in a Titanium Crystal Gray finish and relies on a mesh front panel for intake ventilation. Behind this mesh, Lenovo included a textured airflow shroud, which the company refers to as its 🌑 Night Sky design, to help direct air over the internal components. 🌬️

Like most modern gaming desktops, the Blade 7000K includes customizable lighting. 🌈 The front panel features an ARGB Legion logo, and the internal cooling fans are equipped with 💡 12-LED RGB rings. It also features a standard 💎 tempered glass side panel that allows users to see the internal hardware, while the primary I/O ports are situated on the top edge of the case.

🗞️ In related news, Lenovo recently unveiled the Lecoo Air 14, Intel’s first laptop based on the Project Firefly initiative, and also introduced the 2026 ThinkPad X13 powered by the 📈 Ryzen AI 7 445 with up to 32GB of LPDDR5x memory.
