The Intel Pavillion at ESL One Mumbai was littered with gaming machines that would be the stuff of dreams for many gamers. We saw desktops and laptops powering unique gaming experiences like the Acer Predator Thronos gaming chair or even the Audica VR Game which used the Oculus Rift paired with an ROG Zephyrus laptop. While we did try to get a close look at the machines being used by the teams at ELS One, the only concrete information we walked away with was that they were all powered by the Intel Core i9-9900K processor.
