The memory used in Corsair’s PC gaming desktops is based on the company’s Vengeance LPX DDR4 sticks. Designed for overclocking, these memory modules include a heatspreader made from pure aluminum to keep those circuits running optimally, and a printed circuit board designed to properly manage the heat. On their own, Corsair’s 16GB kit running at 2,400MHz can cost $170 while the 32GB kit can cost $300.

Meanwhile, product images show that the Corsair One desktops rely on the company’s own SF400 and SF500 power supplies, which are underpowered based on Nvidia’s suggestions for its GTX 1080 and GTX 1080 Ti cards. For the GTX 1080 Ti graphics chip, Nvidia suggests the use of a 600-watt power supply given that the card consumes 250 watts on its own. For the vanilla GTX 1080 card, Nvidia suggests a 500-watt power supply (180-watt usage). That said, there doesn’t appear to be any way to choose a better power supply option for Corsair’s desktops.

“The sleek, aircraft-grade aluminum chassis is built with painstaking attention to detail, and extremely resistant to surface wear,” the company states. “Featuring a previously impossible small footprint, and subtle ambient lighting details, Corsair One is at home in any environment.”

As for the rest of the specifications, the desktops provide these features:

Ports (back): 1x PS/2 Port
2x USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-A
3x USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-A
1x USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-C
1x Gigabit Ethernet
1x HDMI
2x DisplayPort
5x Audio jacks
2x Wi-Fi antenna jacks
1x S/PDIF audio
Ports (front): 1x HDMI 2.0
1x USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-A
Connectivity: Wireless AC
Bluetooth 4.2
Form factor: Mini-Tower
CPU cooling: Liquid
GPU cooling: Liquid
Dimensions: 7.87 x 6.92 x 14.96 inches
Weight: 16.31 pounds
Case materials: Steel
Bead-blasted aluminum
Case color: Black

As the base specifications show, Corsair’s desktop provides an HDMI port and a USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-A port on the front for easy virtual reality headset connectivity (although for the HTC Vive, you’re better off connecting the link box to the back). Both the processor and graphics card are liquid cooled, too, providing a highly quiet environment while the computer idles.

Save $450 on this Samsung 32-inch 4K monitor for Memorial Day
Sackboy A Big Adventure running on the Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 monitor.

If you have one of the best GPUs on the market, such as the RTX 4080, then you're going to need to back it up with a powerful gaming monitor like the Samsung Odyssey Neo G8. Samsung makes some of the best gaming monitors on the market, and while they can be pretty expensive, luckily, there are some great early Memorial Day deals you can take advantage of. For example, you can snag the Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 right now from Samsung for just $850 rather than the usual $1,300 it goes for.

Why you should buy the 32-inch Odyssey Neo G8
The Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 has a lot of excellent features, which is great given it has a pretty high price tag too. Probably one of the most impressive parts is the fact that it can hit a whopping 240Hz refresh rate at 4K, which is rare for that resolution and perfect if you're running something like an RTX 4090. Of course, even with the most powerful graphics card on the market, it's doubtful you'll hit that refresh rate at the highest graphical settings, but at least you do have the option to prioritize refresh rate or graphics. The high specs also make the monitor pretty future-proof, at least for the next generation of GPUs, maybe even two.

Why Samsung has the most exciting Copilot+ PC right now
The keyboard and trackpad of the Galaxy Book4 Edge.

We were just inundated with a whole slew of new Windows laptops. These aren't your average notebooks, though -- they're part of Microsoft's new Copilot+ PC program -- built from the ground up with AI and ARM chips in mind.

A lot of these laptops emphasize the same performance and battery life gains caused by Qualcomm's Snapdragon X chips. Those are impressive, but comparing all these laptops against each other, it's Samsung's entry that makes me the most excited.

Samsung’s 49-inch Odyssey gaming monitor is $500 off right now
Front view of Samsung's new QLED Odyssey gaming monitor sitting on desk.

If you have a high-end gaming PC that runs something like an RTX 4090, then you'll likely want to pair it with a high-end screen that can take full advantage of all the power you have under the hood. That not only means grabbing something with high resolution but something that can also handle a high refresh rate. Luckily, the Samsung Odyssey G9 can handle both, and more on top of that, given that it's an ultra-widescreen. Of course, it does go for an eye-watering $1,300 at MSRP, but this Memorial Day weekend deal from Samsung brings it down to a more reasonable $800.

Why you should buy the Samsung Odyssey G9
The massive 49-inch, 1000R curved Samsung Odyssey G9 has an absolute ton of tech under the hood, the least of which is the 5,120 x 1,440 resolution and lightning-fast 240Hz refresh rate. Given that it runs at 1440p, that means it won't tax a card like an RTX 4090 at a higher refresh rate, and if you absolutely love action-packed racing and FPS games, then you should manage to get relatively close to a 200FPS, even with higher graphical settings. Even if you have something like an RTX 4080, you should still be able to make some compromises here and there to get you either to higher graphical settings or higher FPS.
