Just a few months after Comex 2024 wound down, The Tech Show 2024 (Expo) is starting up, this time at Singapore Expo Hall 6B (its usual spot at Suntec is being taken up by the Smart Home Tech Show). Running from 14 to 17 November, a big focus of this year's edition is gaming, and we're featuring some picks that you might find interesting when you head down to the convention hall yourself.

Note: For the non-gaming deals you at find at this show, go here.

Catch all of our coverage from the two shows at the Tech Show Portal, where you’ll also find full brochure listings, reviews, guides, and more.

Aftershock PCs

Aftershock has one of the largest booths at The Tech Show 2024 (Expo), and it's expected, given the company's hold on the local gaming PC market. While they don't have all builds on display, they are certainly offering discounts on them, including the Rapid Level 2x AMD build.

Featuring an AMD Ryzen 5 7600, a GeForce RTX 4060 (with a choice between Gigabyte or PNY), 16GB of DDR5 memory and a 1TB Lexar NQ700 Gen4 SSD, it's an ideal build if you're looking to upgrade to a gaming-capable desktop while keeping to an entry-level laptop budget.

This build normally retails at S$1,330, but come to the Singapore Expo, and you'll find the configuration for S$998 (or S$982 if you go to their TikTok Store). The Aftershock booth is at Booth 6103.

Dreamcore PCs

Dreamcore is also hosting a series of deals for their builds. In particular, you can get an RTX4060Ti AMD X Lite build, which features a Ryzen 5 7600, MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Ventus 2X 8G OC, 16GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR5 memory and a 1TB MSI Spatium M480 SSD, for $1,239, down from its retail price of S$1,734.

Additionally, if you choose to get one of their RTX 4070 builds, you get a choice of some on-site special upgrades as well. For their RTX 4070 SUPER builds, another S$80 can get you a special edition MSI GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER 12G Gaming Slim Wukong Edition to accompany your PC.

An S$80 upgrade can get you an MSI Stalker 2-branded GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 16G Gaming Slim, a copy of Stalker 2, and the choice between an Force Pro Wireless Stalker 2 Edition, a Vigor GK41 Stalker 2 Keyboard or a Clutch Stalker 2 wireless mouse, all from MSI.

Finally, all PC purchases on-site will net you a free MSI Forge GK100 keyboard and mouse combo, which retails for US$29 on Amazon. You can find Dreamcore at Booth 6107.

Ganss GS3098T mechanical keyboard

Mash is also at The Tech Show 2024 (Expo) this year, and no surprise, it shares a space with its partner Aftershock at Booth 6103.

While 60%, 75%, and TKL-size keyboards are a dime a dozen in the custom scene nowadays, kits featuring larger footprints like 96% and full-size are a little bit harder to find.

This is why I was drawn to the Ganss GS3098T, a 96% keyboard that keeps the convenience of the numpad while saving a bit of space by cramming some of the home cluster buttons into the numpad.

Mash offers many choices for mechanical switches, from clicky ones like Kailh Box Jades, tactile ones like Gateron Milky Brown, and linear switches like HMX Hibiscus. You can also choose between 24 different keycap designs, though some require a S$10 top-up.

The Ganss GS3098T is now available from Mash's booth for S$179, down from the retail price of S$238.

Omnidesk Ascent Radiance

If you're looking for an adjustable standing desk that's befitting of a colourful gaming setup, why not get one from a HWZ's Tech Awards 2024: Readers' Choice winner? The Omnidesk Ascent Radiance features the company's flagship Ascent table with an adjustable height range of 63cm to 127cm, and its Radiance tabletop, which features an RGB LED strip lining the all four of a table's edges.

You can get the Ascent Radiance for S$867, down from the S$1,020 that it retails for.

While you're there, you can also dabble with some of Omnidesk's deals too; a table-and-chair bundle will slash the total price by 20%. Any purchase over S$1,200 will also be cut by 20%.

You can find Omnidesk at Booth 6103.

Secretlab Titan Evo gaming chair

While we're talking about gaming-centred furniture, you can also head down to Secretlab's booth.

There, you can find deals for their Titan Evo chairs; their leather Titan Evos will be down to S$624 from their original S$679 retail price, while their fabric Titan Evos are down to S$644 from their original S$699 price (though these only apply to the Small and Regular sizes, you will still need to top up if you're getting an XL size Titan Evo).

You can find get major deals for some of their themed Titan Evo gaming chairs as well. In particular, the Joker, Flash, Miss Fortune and Alliance-themed chairs are all at S$619, a S$150 discount from their original S$769, while their Insouke (Demon Slayer)-themed chair gets a new price of S$649, down from S$799.

It's hard not to emphasise that the Titan Evo chairs are still the best in town, and they've other upgrade options for you to consider, too, like their Premium Footrest, Professional Footrest, Ergonomic Recliner Add-On, and their Skins Lite.

Secretlab's booth is at Booth 6109. It is near the entrance, to the right of Dreamcore's booth, but it's located at a corner, so you'll have to head towards your right to find it when you come in.

Aftershock Forge 15X

If it's a gaming laptop you're looking for, you can also find Aftershock laptops on offer, including an Aftershock Forge 15X.

While Aftershock's website shows the lowest configuration going for a discounted S$1,505, you can find the same specs going for a show price of S$1,465 at the exhibition hall.

However, both prices are down from its retail price of S$1,725, and with that you get an Intel Core i5 14500HX, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050, 16GB of DDR5-5600MHz memory and a 1TB Lexar NM710 Gen4 SSD. The Forge 15X also comes with a 15.6-inch 144Hz FHD display.

Again, you can find Aftershock's booth at Booth 6103.

Gigabyte G6 gaming laptops

While Dreamcore no longer sells its own branded laptops, you can still find some gaming laptop offerings at its booth. In particular, Dreamcore is offering the Gigabyte G6 MF and KF gaming laptops for hundreds of dollars off!

Both laptops feature an Intel Core i7-13620H, 16GB of DDR5-4800MHz memory, and a 16-inch 1920x1200 165Hz display. Where both laptops differ is in the GPU, with the G6 MF offering an RTX 4050 while the G6 KF offers an RTX 4060, and in storage, the MF variant only gives you 512GB of SSD storage, while the KF gives you 1TB of SSD storage.

The Gigabyte G6 MF and KF laptops are available at Dreamcore's booth at Booth 6107. The G6 MF is priced at S$1,349 instead of S$1,699, while the G6 KF is priced at S$1,549, discounted from its retail price of S$1,999.

Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 wireless mouse

As we found in our review of the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2, it may not be a revolutionary gaming mouse, but the 8.5 score is well-earned. If you're looking for a light wireless gaming mouse, this deal at Logitech's booth may nudge you in their direction.

The G Pro X Superlight 2 is available in Magenta and Black/White for S$185 or S$199, respectively. Logitech's booth is located at Booth 6605, farther away from the entrance, right in front of the Gaming Arena.

PRISM+ 34AL OLED Ultrawide Monitor

OLED monitors are seldom cheap, but PRISM+ is lowering the price of its 34AL OLED Monitor by half.

The 21:9 34-inch OLED curved monitor features an ergonomic stand with built-in wireless charging, a refresh rate of 175Hz, a response time of 0.03ms, and a UWQHD resolution. Being OLED, it also meets the HDR400 standard.

The best part is that it all comes down to a price of S$1,336, down from the S$2,699 retail price, though PRISM+ estimates that you can bring it down to around S$1,200, dependent on your coupon combination and which platform you purchase it through (a Grab coupon brings it down to S$1,229, for example).

You can find PRISM+'s booth at Booth 6101, at the extreme left of the exhibition hall when you enter.
