When PC and Steam gamers are exploring the latest hardware news or diving into fresh gaming content, that's when they’re most open to discovering new brands and products. MSI knew that, and they wanted to be part of those key moments. That’s why they partnered with us.

With access to one of the most engaged PC and hardware audiences out there, we helped MSI deliver the right message, at scale, to the core gaming community.

A Trusted Voice, Smart Placement, and Real Impact

To help MSI stand out, our creative studio crafted a tech-savvy, approachable hardware review that broke down the differences between MSI’s motherboard models, highlighting key features and performance advantages for gamers making purchase decisions.

To maximize impact, we paired this with high-impact media placements across PCGamesN,  from attention-grabbing homepage takeovers to persistent nav bar and in-article placements.
