CES 2025 Keynotes :
----> AMD at CES
AMD has its work cut out for it at CES 2025. Competitor Nvidia has been sucking the oxygen out of every room it graces, as the chipmaker remains at the forefront of the AI boom. So, how will AMD compete with Nvidia’s reported RTX 5000 announcement? The company should show of its own next-gen GPU.
As part of an ongoing rebrand, the RDNA 4 cards could arrive as either the RX 8000 or RX 9000 series. Regardless of the name and number the company lands on, AMD has its work cut out for it at this year’s show.
The presser kicks off on the early side at 11 a.m. PT/2 p.m. ET on January 6. The company explains, “AMD senior vice president and general manager of the Computing and Graphics Group Jack Huynh, along with other AMD executives will be joined by partners and customers to discuss how AMD is expanding its leadership across PCs and gaming, and highlight the breadth of the company’s high-performance computing and AI product portfolio.”

--> Sony at CES
Sony knows how to put on a show at CES. The company’s pressers are high-octane, star-studded affairs, as these things go. In addition to standard Sony fare like TVs and audio systems, there’s always a curve ball or two, be it a car, a drone, or a “Gran Turismo” movie. That’s one of the perks of being a massive corporation with your fingers in a lot of verticals.
This year’s press event kicks off at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET on January 6. We’ve already seen some of what Sony will offer, including the SRH-S1 extended reality headset and additions to the Bravia home theater line.
