Gadgets, gadgets everywhere: TechRadar hits CES

This week, the great and good of the tech world headed for Vegas for the most important date of the year - our official US launch. What's that? Oh yes, there was the CES technology show too. CES is enormous, and so is our coverage: if it beeped or blinked at CES, we've got everything you need to know in our comprehensive CES round-up.

Fancy some highlights? We had chips - Samsung's octo-core Exynos 5, which you just know is going to be in the Samsung Galaxy S4, AMD's Temash and Kabini processors, new Qualcomm Snapdragons and Nvidia's new Tegra 4 - but CES was more about the devices than what's inside them. That's why Nvidia turned up with its Project Shield, a gaming system that looks awfully like somebody glued an Xbox controller to an Android tablet.

Project Shield wasn't the only gaming device we saw at CES. Remember Project Fiona, the long-awaited Windows 8 gaming tablet? It's got a new name - the Razer Edge - and it's very nearly A Thing rather than a promise: Razer says it'll hit the US in Q1 of this year. There will be two models at $999 (around £620) and $1,299 (£810) respectively.
