In terms of global tech brands not everything makes its way to our shores. With one of those established hardware makers being PNY it's good to hear that it's partnered with local distributors Leader Computers to expand its Australian presence.

Which means more availability for the PlayStation 5 compatible PNY XLR8 CS3040 Gen 4 SSD, plus more RTX On goodness with PNY's range of graphics cards. Notably the XLR8 GeForce RTX 3070 Ti and GeForce RTX 3080 Ti cards.

And then there's the XLR8 RGB Gaming Memory which now comes in 4600MHz speed... and Pink.

“PNY was looking for a professional and capable component distributor in Australia to meet the needs of our rapid growth in Australia," PNY regional sales director (ANZ), Robert Wu, explained. "Leader is one of the largest component distributors in Australia and thus, we can and will leverage its strengths in each sales channel. Leader are the perfect complement to PNY and our VGA, SSD and DRAM products in Australia.”

Which is a round-about way of saying.... here comes a new challenger.
