Newegg marks its 25th birthday by returning to COMPUTEX 2026, the largest show in Taipei, with a 4‑floor booth that doubles as a gamer hub and a launchpad for new hardware. The event centers on an expanded Gamer Zone, a live PC Builder Championship, and the debut of the Newegg Simulator Builder in June 2026.

Inside the booth, two zones showcase cutting‑edge parts from Newegg partners and an immersive sim‑racing set built around the company’s Advanced Battlestations PCs, MSI gaming monitors, and rigs from Thermaltake and MOZA. Attendees can use the new configurator to spec and purchase a complete sim rig tailored to their racing needs for all visitors today.

The PC Builder Championship returns on Friday, June 5, expanding into a global contest that pits creators from Taiwan, Portugal, Japan and the United States against each other. Linda and Bear HSIUNG, Pedro from PCMR, Takahiro Shimizu, and YouTube star ScatterVolt will compete for prizes that include an MSI RTX 5080 graphics card and an Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus processor.

Newegg also stages a demo at the Robot Café, where customers experience a coffee machine powered by Sensory AI’s Ella XR. The system pairs conversational ordering with a commercial espresso engine, letting users order and receive drinks without staff. CEO Anthony Chow, Intel’s Tasha Chuang and Carota founder Paul Wu discuss the future of AI‑enabled retail.
