CeBIT 2014: A Quick Tour

Tradeshow & OC events by leeghoofd @ 2014-03-13

The Hannover Messe is getting less and less interesting for hardware enthusiasts as myself. Almost all the interesting vendors were located this edition at the Planet Resellers booth; selling is the name of the game, not just show your brand new lineup to the masses. Some big names didn't even bother to prepare a booth for the CeBIT 2014 tradeshow: Gigabyte was not present at all. Neither was ASUS, besides a small stand with professional Laptops. The Media usually got invited into small press meeting rooms to get an insight in upcoming products; definitely not the way to go, but the current outcome is the result of a small and steady decline in interest from the hardware manufacturers. Main focus remains at CES in Las Vegas and Computex in Taipei. In this last article we are looking at some great products from eVGA, Enermax and Bloody Inc; for MSI and Fractal we direct you to the two CeBIT specials.

Bloody

To be honest I never heard of this firm before. However when I walked by their booth, the design directly linked my brains to some zombie slashing games. Being specialist in PC gaming peripherals Bloody, aka ex A4Tech engineers, included some nifty details under the hood for their mice and headsets.

 

 

 

How about three shooting modes, single burst, auto shot with recoil suppression and last but not least the same anti recoil function with a triple burst. The below image tells the tale, no matter the gun you can fine tune via the included software the way you want your guns to handle. The Bloody engineers also claim lag-less shooting with their gaming mice. Take note to have full access to all the special software functions one either needs to buy the high end mouse version or be willing to spend 10 dollars to unlock the software functions.

 

 

 

 

 

The Dolby gaming headsets also include some nifty software solution; one can highlight the footstep sounds and co for faster enemy detection on the battlefield. If all of these solutions will be accepted by the entire gaming community will probably be intensively discussed... Bloody however is giving you the edge here...
