One of the major aspects of gaming is the connectivity. You need to have a good connectivity solution. Whether you want to play a fast-paced multiplayer game or are planning on streaming your gameplay, connectivity plays a major role. The scope of connectivity can be adjusted in a PC by installing a Wi-Fi card of your own choice or going for routers with higher bandwidth. A laptop comes with some restrictions. The hardware is pre-installed and in most cases can not be changed or replaced. The bandwidth of some laptops is also locked, and they can not exercise the full potential of the router or the fiber connection.
Asus and MediaTek have partenered in taking a step towards solving this problem. The new generation Asus Republic of Gamers and The Ultimate Force laptops are set to come out with the MediaTek MT7921 chipset. This will be a Wi-Fi 6 based chipset keen on delivering better connectivity and faster speeds.
- Higher throughput performance over 2×2 dual-band antennas compared with previous Wi-Fi 5 solutions
- High performance with power efficiency based on the 22nm process
- Lower latency with hardware enhancements that provide better signal transmission to support super long-range connections
“By collaborating with Asus, the No. 1 gaming device provider, we bring consumers the best connectivity experiences and ability to seamlessly stream games and enjoy extended battery life,” said Alan Hsu, Corporate Vice President at MediaTek. “MediaTek offers best-in-class solutions for notebooks with our high performance, power-efficient chipsets with the latest connectivity technologies. Working with companies like Asus, has made MediaTek the global leader in connectivity solutions with the broadest Wi-Fi portfolio across broadband, retail routers, smartphones, consumer electronics and gaming devices.”
MediaTek’s Wi-Fi solutions power hundreds of millions of devices every year, and industry demand for Wi-Fi 6 solutions continues to grow. Wi-Fi 6 delivers multi-gigabit, low latency Wi-Fi, providing more reliable connectivity experiences even when users are gaming, streaming or video chatting across multiple devices.
“We’re excited to bring MediaTek’s Wi-Fi technology to ROG and TUF series,” said Rangoon Chang, ROG General Manager, PCs and Laptops. “They’re leaders in the field, and are as committed as we are to giving gamers, creators, and every one the tools they need to perform at their best. MediaTek products have enabled us to bring Wi-Fi 6 to a more diverse range of gaming devices and will improve the experience for everyone.”
The ROG and TUF series powered by MediaTek’s Wi-Fi 6 technology will be available in the market starting in March of 2021.
